Week #17: Growth

First things first...

Mum, have you noticed the change to blogger when you go to post??

The photo challenge this week is:  Growth

I look forward to seeing your photos :)

Work

All in a days work :)

I had a gift certificate from Timmy's so I decided to grab myself a coffee to start my day 

My work...I love working here, thank you God for an awesome place to work!

Filling in my time sheet

My department, where I spend most of my days....the music department, a slow moving department due to itunes, but I still enjoy it!!

Time to go home...

I get off work at 5:30pm, but today...it got so busy at the end, that I didn't end up leaving until after 6pm!!

Oh, well so thankful for a job that I enjoy!!!!

Work....

Three of the five flights of stairs I have to climb 
every time I come to work

Success!  We got rid of the sightly pile of garbage!  
Believe me, it WAS work!

Week #16 - Work

This week's photo challenge should be a fun and an easier one :)

This week's challenge is: Work

I am guessing the amount of hours we will spend in work this week, we should be at least able to get one good picture!! LOL

Excitement

Well I struggled all week on what to post a picture of...so, finally I decided and this is what you get :) (it's not as good as yours Mum!)

Bob and I are going away for a week in May and we have decided to go to Seattle as they have outlet shopping and some other things that sound exciting. I have been doing some googling to see what else there is to do, and we have heard from some friends on some of the exciting things to do while there.

So, here, is my picture, there is lots to do in Seattle so the excitement is building :) It will be so nice to get away just Bob and I.

Totally forgot to post!

Well, excitement reigned at our house this week as Floyd (Dad...LOL...) finally got his new truck - one that I've been wanting to get him for a long time!

Sorry that you've already seen these, KB...next week I'll post ones you've never seen! (What's the new challenge anyway?)

Week #15 - Excitement

Well this week's challenge sounds like fun :)

The challenge for this week is: Excitement

I look forward to see your photos! Keep it up Mum, I know we can do it!

This made my day...

Well, Easter certainly didn't go as we'd planned it this year due to sickness in both Tanya's and our homes, so the egg hunt that I was going to photograph will have to wait for another day. However, about 20 minutes ago, my dear sweet hubbie brought this out to me...and although the chocolates will be savoured later on, the card and thought meant so much to me!

Good Friday

I know this may seem like a weird photo for Easter, but there is a short story behind it :)

On Friday morning, Good Friday, I decided to go for a run before church. I put my ipod on shuffle and half way through my run, I really couldn't believe it....out of all the chapters of the Bible and out of all the songs that I have on my ipod this chapter came on.

I was going to type out the chapter for you, but it's 56 verses, and that's a little long to write on here, so let's just say, this is the chapter where Luke accounts Jesus's trial, death and burial.

All I can say, is only God could have put that chapter on my ipod at that time, and it was a great way to start Good Friday - a reminder of what Jesus did for me.

As our Pastor said at the service, (and it stuck with me all day)

"What happened to Jesus, should have happened to me?"

All I can say is "Thank you Jesus - I am forever grateful!"

Week #14 - Easter

This week's photo challenge is: Easter

Originally it was suppose to be Fools, but I didn't like that idea...seeing as Easter is way more important then April Fools Day, so I decided to change the challenge.

I look forward to seeing your photos :)

Planning for the week :)

Grocery shopping list - done!

Now I just have to plan what night we eat what :)

Planning...

I really had a lot of trouble with this week's challenge. It wasn't so much that I didn't have things that are being planned but it was more how to photograph them. So, it was a good theme because we need to be challenged a bit more...hence the name ;)

Anyway, here's my pitiful entry and I look forward to seeing yours. The doubly-sad thing about this photo is that it was taken on my iPhone...but I didn't want to take my Canon with me on my walk. This shows where I am planning on walking to soon. I have already gone some of the way but hope to soon be going all the way around the bend in the highway.
