Everyone Loves a Parade – WW & You Capture

March 9, 2011 by Elaine

Legs and feet to stand on while waiting for the parade to start… Arms and hands to wave in the air to catch beads as the “floats” go by… Ears to hear the band and all the parade-goers.   And eyes to watch it all…. The kids and I have been to four parades since last…

Technology – You Capture

March 2, 2011 by Elaine

It seems as if TECHNOLOGY kinda helps us get through our mornings around here. Especially THIS machine.  It makes my coffee and FAST.  It also makes lattes, cappuccinos and hot tea. Cocoa too.

Me and the little girl found ourselves outside for a bit this afternoon. Although it was pretty cloudy it was lovely outside and perfect for exploring. And the sun peaked out a few times, gracing us with its WARMTH.

February 10, 2011 by Elaine

I’m usually okay with winter.  I like wearing sweaters and drinking hot tea and cocoa and snuggling under lots of blankets.  But the last few weeks have been full of more gray skies that I’m used too and well, I’m thinkin’ Old Man winter needs to pack his bags and get out. Is is Spring…

Red – You Capture

February 3, 2011 by Elaine

I found all kinds of RED things.   I’ve also decided to follow my bliss and have REALLY started to use my camera the right way (notice I said “start”-it’s a journey).  See what you think… Can anyone guess what this is?  Bib from the 10K I ran back in November “Berry” pretty berries. 🙂 Some…

Doorways – You Capture

10 (okay i mean 13) Photos From 2010 – You Capture

January 5, 2011 by Elaine

Here are some of my very favorite photographs that I took last year. I had a hard time narrowing it down so I went with a “baker’s dozen” worth of pics instead of 10. I hope y’all don’t mind. And SO MUCH thanks to Beth for inspiring me to take LOTS of pics last year…
