scavenger hunt sunday

Ok, so really for me it's Scavenger Hunt Tuesday, but we just got back last night from our trip to the mountains in time to eat, throw some laundry in, wash the kids & get them to bed before I ran off to my friend's for our Bachelor night.

But better late than never.


1. Capture the sky
Everywhere I turned, when I looked to the sky I saw mountains.  For four days.....breathtaking!

2. Everyday
Everyday we need warm coats, mitts, toques, scarves & boots....hoping that now that March has arrived it'll end soon (although while I'm posting this it's -28C).

3. Furry
We took our furry horse baby with us this weekend....she loved running around loose in the snow!

4. Life
I had planned on showing a photo of new life from a newborn session last Monday, but when I looked at the quote on Lily's ice cream cup, I decided this was perfect (even though I took it last Saturday, so it's technically an archive).
Something we all need to do in life: Find Happiness Within.

5. Blurred
The Castle-like Banff Springs Hotel, absolutely gorgeous, even blurred.

Next week we're searching for:

  1. Diptych
  2. Book (next Paper Heart Camera theme)
  3. Fill in the Blank: When I think about how ______________ is in the _______________, I just have to ______________. (ACoLab inspiration)
  4. A Taste of Italy (Lindsay's suggestion)
  5. Reminders (Lindsay's suggestion)
Thanks for stopping by!

Hi Charmaine,
Yup sitting here in Oceanside hoping and praying UPS makes it on time tomorrow. A Four day trip turned into seven. I have never been so excited to see -35. Very nervous about making it through customs. I learned so much. The next time I come through we have to plan coffee. Loved your baby shoot and daughter's lost tooth.
Talk soon,
Dana
