52 Week Project - Week 34

*Just as a reminder, this is a personal project I am undertaking this year, in order to shoot more and share more. Each week of 2011 will have a corresponding favorite photograph.

Well I have had week 34's photograph picked out for a while...but I am stumped on a quote for this one...and have been getting nowhere fast! So I decided to go ahead and post it anyway, instead of holding the rest up and I need YOUR input! I can come back and add the quote later.




In the last few days of finishing up at our old house, the house was pretty much empty. They did a great job of keeping themselves entertained for a long stretch, and then we would set up the laptop and let them watch a movie. Arran is here, playing a game on daddy's iphone and I think the movie had ended, based on the fact that nobody is actually looking at the screen anymore.

They are so wonderful at just hanging out together and truly enjoy each others' company (for a good 70% of the time, I would estimate)!

So if you have any ideas for a suitable quote, please let me know in the comments, or facebook or e-mail me. Let me know if it is something you have made up, or if the quote is credited to somebody, so that I can include that too. I'll keep my thinking cap on as well and hopefully week 34 will be complete before the end of the year, as I finish up this project.

52 Week Project - Week 33

*Just as a reminder, this is a personal project I am undertaking this year, in order to shoot more and share more. Each week of 2011 will have a corresponding favorite photograph.


We have all had days like that. We are just done with the day! The ten days following our move, were exhausting and boring and just full of the mundane tasks like sorting through 'stuff' that was not moving with us and of course the cleaning.

My poor dear children. They were able to spend some time with various friends, who took pity on us, and them, but there were several days when they just had to come with us and suffer through it. Quality time was most certainly at a minimum and we were all pushed to our limits. This was the cute, sad yet adorable sight in the back of our van on one of those days. They were thoroughly exhausted, I mean how often does a seven year old fall asleep in the car, when you are only driving thirty minutes? Long road trip - maybe, but never on a short trip like that.

Love, love them so much!
