Chucks — This Mom's Wired

Weekly Winners – Week Ending 8.21.10

I didn’t have an exciting trip to Chicago to make my weekly winners for the week more visually appealing, but there were some big events – including an anniversary (ahem), my grandfather’s birthday and (DRUM ROLL PLEASE!) the puppy got his splint off!

You can't beat starting your day with a gorgeous pink sky

There was to be no exchange of gifts and yet... anniversary Chucks

He's kind of wobbly and unsure, but how fabulous to have that splint off!

For more Weekly Winners, visit Lotus and check out the awesome shots on her site, as well as the amazing participants.

Weekly Winners – Spring is Coming Edition

It’s time again for the WEEKLY WINNERS. Be sure to pop on over to Lotus’s place to check out her awesome shots of the week and to visit the other participants for WW.So, you remember my lovely green flowers from Costco, right?

Sometimes you have to check things out from another angle.

Less than 24 hours later, the green was starting to seep from the flower’s petals down into the water in the vase, which is actually kind of a neat emerald color right now.

Half empty or half full (or time to buy more straws?)

When it comes to shoes, I often gravitate towards comfort. Love my Chucks.

I took The Princess to Barnes & Noble on Friday – she was so engrossed with the whole browsing for books process that before she even realized I was there, I had snapped over 20 shots. (I love how she reads with her pinky out!).
