Day 217 – Delicate: My nana loved her tea cups, they are one thing I have at my home that are a reminder of her.

Day 218 – Personable: This is Horsey, my daughter’s much loved stuffed horse. She has had him for about 12 years now. I remember when he used to travel with us just about everywhere, and there were times we had to turn around and head back to someone’s home because Horsey was accidently left behind. He doesn’t leave the house as much anymore on daily trips, but you can be sure any time we are gone for more than a day, Horsey will be travelling along with her.

Day 219 – Abstract: We acquired this spinning wheel from a sweet lady who used to be part of our Civil War Reenacting group. Kelsey took an interest for a while. Over the past few years, the spinning wheel has been collecting quite a bit of dust. So just last week, I gave it to another sweet lady who was really excited to add it to her home.

Day 220 – Camera Love: The first time I used this camera, I was in the fifth grade and I took it with me to a week of Outdoor Ed at Mt. Hermon. My mom liked the pictures so much that she had them matted and hung them up in our home. I believe I still have those pictures in a box somewhere. It would be fun to pull them out some time. Now the camera sits on a book shelf reminding me of simpler days.

Day 221 – Dress to Impress: This stay at home, homeschooling mom stays pretty comfortable running around in capris, T-shirts, and barefeet during the summer. Very rarely though, there is an opportunity to dress up for some event. Not too long ago, I found a couple of great dresses for just about $20 each to keep on hand for those dress up type of events.

It is not too late to join in the Capture Your 365 challenge! Let me know if you do, I would love to see your take on the daily photo prompts.

Day 52 – Performance: Kelsey working on her least favorite subject, math. At least she likes the program we use: Teaching Textbooks! I love that all, and I do mean all, of the problems have a solution that is explained in easy to understand terms. The curriculum has made my life easier as a homeschool mom!

Day 53 – Sweet Treats: I have to say I am loving these excuses to bake! Made up a batch of my favorite sugar cookies for this photo prompt. Kelsey helped me with the icing and the sprinkles. Even though the icing turned out a little too pink for my liking, it was the perfect color for the photo.

Day 54 – Framed: I am not one to usually take pictures tilted, but given the suggestion for this prompt, I thought I would give it a try on this photo. That wicked cough came back over the weekend, so hot tea with honey was my way to try to beat it, with one of my favorite mugs of course.

Day 56 – A Cup Of ____ : For me in the morning, it is always orange juice! My favorite go-to breakfast most often is a bowl of cheerios and a cup of orange juice. Yum!

Day 57 – From The Side: This Bible sits on a table in the entry way of our home. It belonged to a set of great grandparents who I don’t believe I ever met. But it was special to my grandmother, and she gave it to me to keep, which makes it a special heirloom for me to cherish.

Bonus photo!: On my way home from photography class last week, I just had to pull over to take this picture. The sun was starting to set and I had noticed on the way to class that some of the almond trees were starting to blossom. Sure is nice having that big girl camera with me at times like this one!
