Photo challenge

I've seen a few bloggers doing a project to take a photo each day in 2012, and I've decided to join in. Similar to the 52 weeks challenge a few years ago, which helped promote getting mothers out from behind the camera and into the photos, I'm hoping this challenge will encourage me to take more casual photos of our day-to-day lives. I'm great about vacation photos, holidays and special events, but I don't have many pictures of the family just doing what we normally do...hanging out.

Now, as you will about to see, I am promising a photo every day. Not a GOOD photo.

And this "every day" thing is a pretty high goal. We'll see how that goes.

Jan 1 - the cat and the Christmas Tree skirt, pathetically begging me to leave it alone. Why, mean lady, did you take down our tree? I loved our tree. I loved this soft blanket under the tree. You aren't going to take this, too, are you?
Jan 2 - lazy day of football and games:

Jan 3 - mom and dad are back to work so the kids are with their grandparents. K and Grandma were busy sewing. K got this little project along with a sewing machine for Christmas, and she was so excited to make Ivy a dress:

Jan 4 - Mike and I had a no-kids night out at my favorite Omaha restaurant, and I completely forgot to take a picture. So I took a picture of the cookies that they give you as you leave. Only I dropped the bag as we left the restaurant and I broke the cookies. So like I said, I didn't promise GOOD pictures:

Jan 5 - making sandwiches:

Jan 6 - Movie Night:

Jan 7 - Chef G with his fancy tuna melts and orange burping cow:

Jan 8 - Happy 1/2 birthday, N!

Jan 9 - Chef G at work. It is really hard to flip those eggs without breaking the yolk is what he learned on this day.

Jan 10 - Chef G with his fondue dessert meal:

Jan 11 - we won a Nestle prize pack with my favorite Paul Frank monkey. Yay!

Jan 12 - Marmalade

Jan 13 - all ready for school, waffle in hand:

Jan 14 - um, we may have gone somewhere fun. Without the kids.

Jan 15 - SUNSHINE!
