Week One of My 365 Project

I know, I know...I'm already behind on posting this, but I have been really good about shooting something everyday.  Sometimes it's just an everyday moment and sometimes I actually take the time to be creative.  I can already tell this will be a challenge, but I am determined not to throw in the towel (at least not this early in the game anyway.)  So, here are my first nine days of Project 365.

I love this first shot and her little Mona Lisa smile.  I could have ended with this shot, but that throws my 365 project out the window doesn't it?

Day 2: Taken at a friend's birthday party for their 1 year old son.  This is big sister K.K. being tossed by her daddy.  Doesn't this look fun? 

Day 3: I loved the way the flowers looked with all the teeny water droplets after the sprinklers were finished.

Day 4: J Bird and I just having crazy fun at bathtime.  I almost missed my photo opportunity this day, but it turned out better than expected.

Day 5: J Bird's little mini-Bella.  I'm sure she's forgotten about it by now with all her birthday gifts. Our house is being taken over by Barbie.

Day 6: I tried to get a fence shot in last week, since I haven't been active in Flickr's Fence Friday group in so long.  My only opportunity was to stalk around my parent's backyard when I went over to pick up J Bird. They think nothing of me lying in their grass anymore.  I did learn some new processing methods with this one (even though it's a little out of focus.) Can I get a "woot woot"!? No? huh, what?

Day 7: A shot from J Bird's soccer practice.  These kids are hilarious.  How does anyone coach 5 year olds anything?  I love that it looks like they're doing something...like defense or who knows what.

Day 8:  Awwww, my sweet baby girl turned 5 this week.  We had a birthday party for her where the kiddos rode horses, painted a pony, and bounced and bounced and bounced and bounced.  I promise I will post something eventually....before she's 8.

Day 9:  Grandpa and Grandma, as always, must give the best birthday gift ever.  Little J Bird asked Grandpa for a pony and boy did he deliver.  He got her first Mustang..in pink, no less.  Driving lessons are going slower than expected, though (she drives like her Grandma.)
