I have gained so much from my Project 52 that I participate in each week as part of the Bloom Forum. It has given me motivation each week to pick up my camera and shoot something that I might have otherwise missed. It has linked me with 14 other wonderful women, photographers, and friends. It has helped me to preserve memories that otherwise probably would have faded quickly. So when Callie, a member of the Bloom Forum asked for those interested in doing a 10 on 10 project I jumped on board IMMEDIATELY! The 10 on 10 concept was actually “borrowed” from another group on the forum started by Shannon Harrison. I hope they don’t mind that we chose to form our own group, because this is a wonderful idea.
The Project: 10 on 10
What : Take 10 images in roughly 10 hours of your day
When: The 10th of every month
Who: 10 lovely women
Where: Blog Circle
Ok… so here goes my first attempt. This was shot on a Saturday. Cameron and his dad went off to have a “Boy’s Day” so me and Coley had the morning to ourselves. Later on we went to a cookout with fellow Bloom Member, Shea Parker. It was a special time. After the recent Jackson, MS Bloom Meetup she and I played matchmaker with her sister and my best friend. This evening was the first time Shea got to meet him. I have more images from that night on my previous blog post ( including an image or two of “the couple”) if you are interested.
And don’t forget to make the rounds!!!! Visit Alison Crane to see what her day was like!
This baby almost ALWAYS wakes up happy! Morning Coley!
Time to make Breakfast!
Boot time! And she can do it “All by My-seff!!”
She decided she wanted a new do…. At two.. she STILL does not have much hair… we are patiently (yeah right) waiting for it to come in though!
Time for Tea…
And Raviolis! ( she pronounces it “Iolies” )
Big Brother, Cameron is home and tuckered out from “Daddy Time”
At the Parkers, Coley tried to lay claim to some toys…
After a rainshower.. the kids went back outside… sans some clothing and had a blast! ( to see more of these… see previous post! )
Not sure WHAT was going on here… I walked into the bathroom to see Charlie Parker on on the bathroom cabinet, water going and I think Coley was trying to call on her cell for 9-1-1 assistance…
Cara - I love these Rachel, what a beautiful happy face to wake too, and the light in the 2nd shot is so pretty. The final shot is a classic, it really makes you speculate what was going on :D. As for Coley’s hair, there is something special about slow growing hair, it keeps them little for a tad longer, which can only be good.
