Photo Challenge - Day 30

Day 30: a picture of someone you miss.

I bet you can't tell who this one will be about. ;o)

I miss my Mom dearly. I am thankful for this blog challenge though because I have found so many great pictures of her that have brought up so many memories!

Photo Challenge - Day 29

Day 29: a picture that can always make you smile.

*A* picture? Not happening. But, since this is my blog, I can break the rules.

I have SO many pictures that can make me smile. But I don't have time to post my entire library. I'll narrow it down (painfully) to two right now.
Maybe that's another blog idea - picture of the week or something. We'll see.

Anyway, this is my number one. The last total family picture I have before my Mom passed away. This was taken in 10/06 at Ryan's Baptism.


Another favorite. I am *not* pulling favorites with my children, I swear. But this picture has always been one of my all-time-favorites of Aidan. He was 19 mon old.

Photo Challenge - Day 28

Day 28: a picture of something you are afraid of.

Well, this one is fairly easy.


Dying. I'm terrified of dying. I have anxiety / panic attacks if I let myself think about it. I've been this way for as long as I can remember. Sometimes days/weeks/months will go by without my having a panic attack. Other times I'll have 3/4/5 a week. I don't know why.

Well, I do know why, but I guess I just don't want to get into it.

Photo Challenge - Day 27

Day 27: a picture of yourself and a family member .

How do I pick just one? How random.

I've posted lots of me with my hubby and kids. So let's move on to siblings, shall we? But I'm not going to pick just one. You'll have to deal with all three. Oh well, it's my blog. Neeener neeener neeeeeeener.

This is my sister, me, Mike and Brandon. Brandon is my not-so-new brother. Mike and Brandon have been married for a year and a half now. It's like he's always been part of the family and I love him to pieces. I know it's not a recent picture but it's one of my favorites.

Photo Challenge - Day 26

Day 26: a picture of something that means a lot to you.

I'll have to come back with the picture itself but it will be of my Mom's engagement ring. It sounds kind of odd..........my parents split up when I was four years old. I found the ring when I was going through her stuff last year. She had kept it in a holder so I assume she wanted to keep it for something.

It is just a simple diamond. I'm guessing about 1/3 carat? Maybe a 1/2? I have no idea, I'm not very good at figuring that type of thing out. It is the only piece of "real" jewelry I think my Mom had. She wasn't one for buying things like that. She'd wear earrings, bracelets, rings, etc but they were not good quality. Just little baubles that she liked.

It means a lot to me because I am going to do something with it for Erynn. I'm not sure what yet. I have plenty of time to figure it out. I want her to have something from her Grandma. I think my Mom would want her to have it. I really do.

Photo Challenge - Day 22

Day 22: a picture of something you wish you were better at




Working out. Hands down. I despise it. Can't stand it. Would rather do anything BUT.
However. I'm unhappy with the way I look.
Quite the dilemna.

Photo Challenge - Day 20

Day 20: a picture of somewhere you'd love to travel


Well, I already used Ireland so I feel like I should use another place.


Although Ireland is my hands down, all time, MUST get there at somepoint place.


I just had to make that clear.


I guess anywhere that is warm with a beach. Someplace I can relax. Someplace low key. Not too expensive. John and I had a wonderful time on Norwegian when we cruised from Boston to Bermuda. Twice. I'd love to do that again. So, let's say that.


Bermuda.

My aunt brought me this one last year. It's crazy how much Erynn looks like me! She and I have the exact same hands.

Photo Challenge - Day 18

Day 18: a picture of a bad habit

I'd say my worst habit is how critical of myself I am. I don't think I can find a picture of that.

Although I did try google images. LOL.

I am HYPER critical of myself. I'm trying to work on it.

Photo Challenge - Day 17

Day 17: a picture of something that has had a huge impact on your life recently.

This one is difficult! I honestly have no idea. I can't think of anything that has impacted my life recently. Aside from the economy. How do I get a picture of that?

Photo Challenge - Day 16

Day 16: a picture of someone who inspires you.


Easy. My gf Alice Anne. I can't even begin to accurately express how I feel about her. I love her to death. She is an AMAZING mother, wife, friend, person. She inspires me every day, I wish I could be more like her. Like I said, words can't express but she is truly an inspiration.

Photo Challenge - Day 15

Day 15: a picture of something you want to do before you die.


I really really want to go to Ireland. That is the only thing that comes to mind immediately. I've always wanted to go.

Photo Challenge - Day 13

Day 13: a picture of your favorite band or artist

Oh I could never narrow it down to one. No way, no how. My music tastes vary widely. They don't even make sense. I'd never lend anyone my iTouch because they'd think I was a crazy person LOL.

Photo Challenge - Day 12

Day 12: a picture of something you love

Clearly I love my family. But I feel like I should get "more" out there than just that lol. So, I'm going to share what flowers I love.



Tulips! Tulips are my favorite flower. I know a looooot of women love roses. Nope, I love me some tulips. (I do like roses, yellow are my favorite rose but I love tulips even more than roses) We have tulips planted in our front yard. I love that they are one of the first flowers you see in the spring. There are a lot of flowers I associate with springtime, warmer weather, fun at the beach, etc. But tulips are definitely my favorite.

Photo Challenge - Day 11

Day 11: a picture of something you hate

Again with the "H" word. Sheesh. It's such a strong word and one I hate to use. Wait. That doesn't work now does it? There are lots of things I dislike.......but I can't say I HATE anything. Wait. I got something. I think I can safely say I might just hate:



CENTIPEDES. O.M.G. I can't stand these bugs. Just putting that picture on here gives me the **shivers** and makes me want to run. All of those legs, all moving at the same time.....ACK. They FREAK ME OUT. So there, I guess I really do hate something.

Photo Challenge - Day 10

Day 10: a picture of the person you do the most messed up things with


Hmmmmm, messed up things? I don't know that I do any messed up things to be honest. When I was younger, definitely. Fun, stupid, crazy things. Now? Oh boy. Am I too old for this photo challenge? Really?? No, I'm going to make this work. How about I post a picture of Susan and I back when we did more messed up things. Because now, in our old age, we do things like run to Target and the mall. That's not really messed up now is it? But back in the day.........watch out now. So here you go. A picture of Susan and I back in the days where we would do messed up things.
