Photo Challenge Day 7

Taken from above

We found these little cuties by a tree in our back yard.

Last week's lake walk

I used several of the pictures from our walk last week for the photo challenge. But there were quite a few good ones and I thought I'd post the rest of them.

The lake we walked around.

 Some of the plants around the lake.

Environmental walk

My photo prompt for today was environment. So I gave each of the kids a camera and we headed out to shoot something. It's always fun to see the world through someone else's eyes.

I could have gone with this slant on my environment, but I would much rather showcase the beautiful.

Cue beautiful!

 The perfect ending to my day.

Check out my other blog for pictures of the kids.

Nature Photography

We've gone camping a couple of times this spring in our camper. But with life being so busy, I just haven't had the chance to post any pictures. So here are some of the pictures from a couple of weeks ago.

 Both of these boat pictures say peaceful to me.

Our last camping venture was this past weekend. Wow! What a mess. It rained almost the entire time and we were cold and wet. The camper that once seemed so spacious had become increasingly smaller by the end of the weekend. But despite all of the mud and yuck, I think we still managed to have a bit of fun. I just didn't get very many pictures.

 Before I get comments about the environment - I know I shouldn't have burned the fork. I didn't realize it until it was melting and then 1. didn't want to burn my finger and 2. thought it was pretty.

Stripes

They could be the trees or the strips of color in the sky.

Camping

Life has gotten a bit more crazy busy than normal and I just haven't had time to post pictures or blog. So here are the pictures from our camping trip a couple of weeks ago.

  It was a gorgeous weekend.

Waterfalls

Here are some pictures from our camping trip a couple of weekends ago.

 

Random shots

Today was gorgeous. I was outside with the kids (my daughter and a little kid I was babysitting) and I was taking pictures of them. Here are a few non-kid pictures that I took.
