You Capture - Doorways

Friday, January 14


Well, another busy week gone by.  I didn't even know the topic of this challenge until after I came home from our trip to the beach with my family and then to Seattle.  These are almost doorways:


Doorway to the Lego Castle, so awesome with its drawbridge and portcullis.  

Here is the family on the way into the Harry Potter exhibit at the Pacific Science Center, no photos allowed inside :-(

The entrance to the  Pacific Science Center at night.

The roof near the entrance of the EMP (Experience Music Project).  It's made of 21,000 metal tiles all uniquely shaped.

You Capture - Top 10 of 2010

Thursday,  January 6


Hope it's not too late to say Happy New Year!  since this is my first post of the year.    I've been busy this week working on starting a business of selling my photos as note cards.  Even though I don't have a webpage or a logo yet, I'm sending an order to the printers tomorrow as I've already had some requests to purchase cards.
I also worked on portraits this year and was tempted to include some, but decided to leave them out because it was getting too hard to narrow down the list.  Hope you enjoy today's top 10!

You Capture - Holiday Favorites

Thursday, December 30

I didn't take many photos this week, but here are some I needed to post of the girls helping out with the Christmas program at church.  My daughter (right) and friend ringing the bells.

and reading the nativity story. 

It's lucky that Sydney went to practice because she ended up being Mary.   Check out our friend Macy, the cutest cow ever!

Homemade Hula Hoops

Here is the video I took yesterday right after we made hula hoops with Grandpa Bubba!    We decorated after we tested them out with the cousins.



It was so funny when we went to Lowes and were standing in front of the irrigation tubing and the guy says, "Hi, are you making hula hoops?"    Welcome to Portland!

Merry Day after Christmas!

The girls had cold last week, but they got better just in time to celebrate Christmas, so we had a nice quiet Christmas eve and opened a few presents so the girls would have something to do.   Yesterday we drove to visit two sets of grandparents.  Here are a couple of photos - I was trying to use a star filter on my camera with only a little success.  

I Can't Elf Myself

Oh, but I can and I did!   I know I haven't blogged in forever, but here is a little entertainment until a real post comes along. 


Here is the disco version:

Here we are singing:

You Capture - Kindreds that pretended to eat this

Thursday, December 2


Crazy title you say?   That's what happens when you combine two weeks into one and don't take pictures of real food.    The girls stayed the night at Gma and Gpa's with the cousins.   I like to call them the twins, they are exactly 3 weeks apart.    They even included their younger cousin for most of  weekend.  

My sister made these adorable felt cookies with velcro and ice cream cones with magnets.

  They look good enough to eat.
