March Photo Challenge!

I can't believe that we are saying good-bye to March already!

But I am thrilled with the thought of warmer weather coming our way soon. 

I love the heat! Sandals, shorts, pony tails and hanging out at the pool.

Walking barefoot, eating watermelon and planning BBQ's.  

I am like a lizard - I can just sit in the sun and soak it all up. 

I'm smiling just thinking about summer!

But first things first - Spring!

It was Sarah's turn to choose the categories this month and she chose some hard ones (at least hard for me!)

Category #1 - A Spring Flower

How about a spring flower in Eastern Oregon? Got to love the late snow that we had this year!

Category #2 - Something Priceless

I was torn between this photo of Owen and one of Caleb cooking with me but this one ended up being the winner. I love the look in his eyes - priceless! I somehow captured his little spirit of fun and spunk. 

Category #3 - Someone Lucky

This one was a no-brainer! My Grandma is the luckiest person in the whole world - no joke! She wins at Bingo just about every time she plays and on the first cruise that we went on together, Grandma won so much money in the casino that I came home with $1,000. She won so much she felt guilty and then had to share with me. (We had previously agreed to split whatever we won with each other but I just wasn't lucky enough to contribute to the earnings!)

Category #4 - Something Filthy

After painting for hours on end with a sprayer, pretty soon you are coated with paint everywhere! I wished I could have got a better picture that showed the color of Mark's skin more - he became Irish Cream - the same color as the walls! 

Category #5 - A Picture with a Long Exposure

While I was digging through our storage unit the other day searching for some shorts for the boys, I stumbled across some sparklers that I had bought for the 4th of July. I went ahead and pulled them out and took some pictures with Mark and the boys playing with them. Mark didn't believe me when I said that he could draw stuff and I could capture it - silly boy! He should know by now that I am always right!

Can you tell what he drew in this picture?
