Project 365 Day 98 - April 7th

We took the kids down the street to the Annual Easter Egg Hunt held by one of the smaller towns locally.  The kids had a great time scrambling among the herds of children to collect as many eggs as they could.  Daisha was in the group for kids ages 7-10 and managed to make out like a bandit.  Unfortunately, Keiran was in the group for kids ages 3-6 and only collected 4 eggs.  Whoever thought putting 3-year olds in an egg hunt with 6-year olds obviously hasn't spent much time with kids.  The younger ones were almost trampled on by the older ones and got next to nothing since their little legs wouldn't let them move as fast.  Fortunately, Daisha was a good big sister and shared with her brother.  I snapped this picture as they looked down into their baskets together waiting to see what kind of prizes they'd won.

Project 365 Day 31 - January 31st

I was so excited to finally get outside today.  My wound had healed up enough that I was able to cover it with a bandage and go out with my hubby.  I needed to go to Michael's to pick up some yarn for a hat order.  YAY... my first one!

On the way toward the Eastern Shore, the part of Baldwin County where Michael's is located, I saw this water tower off in the distance.  My hubby thought I was nuts that I got so excited over it since we'd lived in Loxley for a couple of years before moving to our current home and it had been there all along.  Funny.. I've never noticed it.

On our way back home, we stopped at a local grocery store in Loxley that has great prices on meat.  While Tony was inside shopping, Keiran and I went outside to enjoy the beautiful weather.  It was then that I noticed the water tower I'd seen earlier was just across the street.  I had my camera on me, as I almost always do, so I pulled it out and started snapping away.  I love the way the tower, unlike most, has a bluish silver color to it, which glistened in the sunlight.
