Finally, I’ve been able to post!! It’s been a busy week…well, here it goes…by the way this is Monday, August 29:

First off, it was in the morning and Kevin was about to go out and empty the mulch, and he mentioned a cat on the deck…so I told him not to move, then snapped this pic: (and a couple others)

Then I had this great idea illustrating ‘The Key to Success’ - so I took these pictures…I’ll try to put that title on it on Saturday and post it…I like the second lighting better…

this was my setup…

(a broken toothpick is holding up the lock)

Daniel gave me Daryn while I was mowing, and I told him to get the camera and *ummm* *try* to take some pics!!

Okay, this is the carpet we have right now:

and the stuff we’re getting is the exact same as this, except blue (YES!!!):

So we’re emptying our rooms to get ready…they’re coming either Tuesday or Wednesday!!

I know, only one…it’s of Brian’s stuff all stashed in the family room…I’ll post more later…tried a new kind of ‘candid’ style…set the flash to red-eye, so the first flash catches the victim’s attention and he\she starts to turn toward the camera…I know, not very candid, but this is what I got:

I experimented with the kitchen sink some and got some VERY interesting pics:

Daniel’s doing something for his ALERT Cadet book, and he’s setting up a tent…here he is crawling in…

and gone!!

but he pushes Dad out in the process…

and decided to come out himself…

He gave me some poses:

(note this was taken in bright daylight!! )

I experimented with the hose some too…

Daniel peeked over at me once…

and after taking a bunch of videos, was going crazy!!

Well, I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!!

Okay this is what we did yesterday:

First off, me and Dad were doing money and I saw this squirrel:

hmmm…interesting pose…

I tried to go outside and get a picture of him, but he ran up a tree and gave me a funny look…

later, we played an exciting game of 10 days in Africa… (well maybe not that exciting for some)

Daniel rearranges his hand…

and wins!

he then lays out his hand for us to see…

later on he went crazy with Prector…

he studies with him when he can…

I purposely cut Prector out of this one…

I think this emphasizes that nonsense sentence I wrote a few days ago - Prector drowns into floor under Daniel’s weight…

then I went out and took some ping pong pics (ppp!)…is this Kevin in the Great Depression???

surprisingly, alot of these that he and Daniel spun look like they’re going off the paddle…

haha…

nice serves…

okay, during the middle of the game, Daniel hit the table so hard he almost split it in half…

here’s a nice one of Kevin…

looks like he’s gonna spin this one…

okay, I found a new species of animal…

this one isn’t too interesting…

interesting serve…

please don’t blink…

I got a good one of Kevin laughing…

now why are you taking more pictures???

here’s a nice one of water…I’ll have to experiment with that some more…

here they’re planning our bedrooms…

here’s Kevin holding up a vertical blind with one extremely strong hand (I can’t do that)…

it’s hard…

wow that things tall…

here he is intently planning his room…

Well, have a good day!!!!

Some more animal pics I took:

Smiler gets stuck in the crack!

A group watches a rolling marble…

What do you think of this portrait I took?

Okay, don’t have much time, but I just wanted to show you some pics I took this morning:

Here’s a nice group…patriotic and happy…found them on Kev’s bed…

Samuel!!!

I just want to congratulate my brother Daniel on driving…he’s doing very well, and I think the thing he’s doing the best is always stopping and stopping nice. Kevin always stops so slowly either you can’t feel the roll-back, or you can just barely feel it…Daniel does the same thing, and I’m very proud.
