Week In Pictures - October 12, 2008 - October 18, 2008

Join my lonely meme and create a running, photo diary of your week.
I am trying to create a legacy for my children and Photos are the best way. When I look back at my childhood photo albums I wish my mom was around to tell me the details of the photo like:

Where we were going?
What was happening?
How old was I?
Who are those people?

Scrapping is a great way because you get some photos and some journaling, but who has time for that these days?

October 12, 2008 - My Daughter loves riding on small toy cars. Usually it is a Barbie car but this time it was the prized Little People bus, a gift from Auntie Bek!

October 13, 2008 - The living room hasn't looked liked this in 5 years. 5 years ago when my son started crawling we sealed up the fireplace, moved the couch against it and forgot about it. This week my husband took the tape, sealer, plywood, garbage bags and insulation out, moved the couch and started our first fire in 5 years.

October 14, 2008 - There have been some pretty incredible skies this week. There is nothing like the colors of the trees in October and the amazing autumn sky. What is not to love.

October 15, 2008 - I have stopped my car so many times this week to take random photos. It is one of the reasons having the kids in school is good for my health.

October 16, 2008 - Like I said, we have had some truly amazing skies. This was around 6:30 p.m. and my kids and I were in the car looking at the full moon and the amazing clouds. They talked about the sky for an hour as we drove home.

October 17, 2008 - This is a Halloween decoration of a spider web but that is not why I took the photo. We were heading out to the car when I noticed a Walking Stick on the web. I took the photo and we left. When I came back he was there 5 hours later. Not sure why he hung out so long but the kids and I thought he was pretty amazing.
October 18, 2008 - Here is an old abandoned bird nest that was under the deck. The bottom was dried up mud that was as solid as concrete. My kids were so amazed with the nest and it was fun talking about why birds make nests and why.
