WEEK 2 - GUILTY PLEASURES

From a beautiful mess-This week, challenge yourself to snap a guilty pleasure of yours and your family members too! I define a guilty pleasure as something that you enjoy, but that you're maybe not exactly proud of."

                                  

So I have a little obsession with makeup! This is my guilty pleasure. Unfortunately I haven't been able to wear eyeshadow in about 3 Months. I have psoriasis on my eye lid. It's brutal & eyeshadow makes it way worse. Anyways I can't wait until I can wear it again. 

                     

Our family guilty pleasure is Peanut Butter. YUMMY! we seriously go through so much of it. I like crunchy, but will take either. Mike like creamy so we usually get that!  Now I'm going to go eat a spoonful.

WEEK 1 - GOOD MORNING, GOOD NIGHT

This weeks challenge was to help you start and end your day off right! This week, I was challenged  to photograph my mornings and evenings. I mostly did mornings, evenings can get a little chaotic with the little dude. Plus lighting in my house is terrible!

Well Asher is my mornings. Cuddly morning nursing sessions & coffee. Good coffee! Favorite part of my mornings. (Some of these are my camera, some iPhone) 

Asher is 17 months old here's some fun info I want to remember.  

-Climbs anything & everything-obsessed with babies & balls.

-He signs more, eat, all done.(says them too) refuses to do milk. His sign for that is tugging on my shirt.

-He likes to look art you all sneaky out of the corner of his eye & give you a big cheezer. 

-He calls me Dada. He knows how to say mama, but for some reason calls me dada.

-He always hides toys in daddies work boots

-He teases Mystro constantly & they are best buddies.

-My favorite thing he says  Ought Oh Spegehetti Oh. said like "Ought Oh petti oh"

-Oh so many more fun things, but now that I'm trying... I can't think of them.

Capture Real Life in 52 Weeks

Well I decided to do a fun new project. Before the babe came along I was always crafting/letting the creative juices flow. Now, not so much...
I am starting a fun 52 week project from A Beautiful Mess. "Capture Real Life in 52 Weeks"

Here's the explaination.

"In Capture Real Life in 52 Weeks you will be given specific photography challenges and tips you can use throughout the year to document life as it happens around you. Each month you will also be challenged to create a mini album featuring some of your favorite photos and memories. Each session contains examples and tips from the instructors to give you plenty of inspiration to create your own beautiful photos and mini albums. The entire course contains 52 sessions, so you'll be challenged to capture your real life throughout an entire year if you complete one session each week. However this course is self paced, so you are welcome to set your own schedule as needed."

I thought this would be a super fun way for me to get creative, do something I enjoy & ick up my camera more often .  So I will be posting a photo a week here. If this sounds fun to you please join in. You can follow the link above to visit their site & join in on the fun.
