Fireworks

My sis and I decided to do a little project on "fireworks" and that's the result:




Have a great week everyone! :-)

Week #26 - Fireworks

This week's photo challenge is: Fireworks

Good luck and I look forward to seeing your photos!

Kids in Africa

Here I am, posting late, but I totally forgot what the topic was... so, as I am REALLY homesick of Africa, I decided to share some photos with children I met just about a year ago.


Two girls I met during kids ministry in East London, South Africa


Jamie, son of Jakes&Astrid Bezuidenhout :-)


Kids at Duncan Village, South Africa

Oh, only just looking through these make me cry and wanna go back right now.... guess I need to be a little more patient:-) Have a great week. Love

Special Children in my life

I decided this week to show you the special children in my life, my nieces and nephews! I also decided that I would be in the pictures with them as I don't think I have many pictures of us together. I love these children so much and am so blessed to be Aunty Kristy to the cutest kids in the world. I also should note, that I did not take the pictures this week, as I was in them, I had someone else take them :-)

My niece, Kiera (6)

My nieces, Adriana (14), Erilyn (10), Amelie (7), Isabella (3), and Sophia (1)

along with my nephew, Kellen (5)

My nephews, Josiah (3) and Levi (1)

See how blessed I am!!!

A couple to start...

Here's a couple taken at our Father's Day picnic yesterday:

Week #25 - Children

I'm sure this week should be an easier one :)

The challenge for this week is: Children

Thank you to Sandrine and Buffy for joining Mum and I this week - we were beginning to think you had all abandoned us!!

Looking forward to seeing your pictures!! Have fun!

My Reflection

I really wasn't sure what to do this week...this is all I could think of. It's a reflection of me, sitting in my car :)

Reflections around the house...

View in the side mirror on our brand-new, hunking-cute, Hyundai Tucson

HOME forwards and backwards (yet it reads the same both ways!)

Our sunroom windows reflected in my old Westminster clock

Reflections of Manchester

Have a great weekend everyone! Lovies

But Wait! There's More!

Antiques Part II. Cause my mother in law has so many!
And I know that the second one may count as "Emotive" because some people are seriously creeped out by old dolls!

My mother in law posted on my Facebook :

Hey - you took a picture of the doll in my guest room! She is only about 65 years old, but she is wearing a dress that Greg's Grandmother made for his Aunt Phoebe when she was a baby...I think she was born about 1913.

I love it when photos have a back story!

Reflections

How handy that I happened to have taken this picture this week!

Landscapes

Wouldn't this be a wonderful thing to see every morning whilst sipping fresh coffee?


And - my in-laws have a neighbor who takes a most unusual approach to landscaping. This is just one part of it!

Architecture - totally late!

The Arbor that my parents built in their back yard!

Week #24 - Reflections

Well first let me say, Mum's photos from this week might have qualified for this week's challenge too. But now I am excited to see new photos.

This week's photo challenge is the word: Reflections

Have a good week everyone!

Landscapes by the lake

Alberta Landscapes

I went for a drive by myself today after I cleaned the church, trying to get a great photo of some Landscapes....then I remembered that my camera has a panorama setting. So I took these photos - hope you enjoy them!

The sun was shinning so bright and the wind was moving all the trees!

You can see the roof of my car on this one ;)

I love this one, with the bales of hay...truly Alberta!

Late, I know...

Architecture in my back yard:

Week #23 - Landscapes

So, I wonder....is anyone going to join me this week?

This week's photo challenge is: Landscapes

I hope more of you join me this week!!

Architecture

Even though I am a little late, I'm pretty sure everyone is ok with it....

....seeing as I am the only one posting this week!!

I decided to take pictures of our church. I love the architecture of our church, especially with the cross on the top!

I love the picture below, it's taken of the side of our church, I noticed that there are crosses in the wall and in the window. I don't know if they did it intentionality when they built the building, but I thought it was cool.

Just a reminder that it's all about the gift that Jesus gave us on the cross!
