What to Wear | July

What to Wear | July

What to Wear will feature different palettes providing ideas when you plan the wardrobe for individual pictures or your family images during the holiday gatherings.

What to Wear | July features ideas for all family members: mom; dad; big brother; big sister and little brother and little sister. Have fun preparing your stylish look for family pictures!

It is not necessary to purchase new clothing for better images. When planning the wardrobe, do wash and dry the clothing. Immediately after drying, hang the clothes on a hanger. Or iron, if you like. The main goal is wrinkle free clothing.

Shoes do not need to be new either. New shoe laces is an inexpensive purchase to spruce up the look. Polishing leather or washing canvas shoes is another solution to brighten their appearance.

Have the socks match either the pants or shoes. This is important for anyone who may be sitting or squatting in the group. Imagine if the pants are navy blue, shoes white and you see bright green socks. Very distracting. Your eyes will go straight to the green socks and not the person’s face! However, if the socks were either white (matching shoes) or navy blue (matching pants), your eyes will flow over the person and land on the face/eyes of the person in the picture.

Take Care. Best wishes, Debra

Fish Fry

Fish Fry | My Sunday Snapshot 18

Hi, welcome to My Sunday Snapshot 18. We had an invite to go to a fish fry. Kevin’s friend, Ed, called last week and extended the invitation. Kevin and Ed have been friends since their high school days. Ed’s large extended family celebrated several graduates, birthdays and an anniversary. Lots of family and friends, food and fish! The fish was excellent.

The gathering was held outside, quite the distance from the main house. Ed had his uncle build this luxury commodity. Much better than finding a ‘tree’.

In case you were wondering about the truck; the blue barrel filled with water, had a faucet that could be turned on or off. A bar of soap is to the left of the barrel.

On the walk back to the fish fry, this was the view of the pond.

In short, I never have liked using an ‘outhouse’. I have always cringed at needing to use one. This time the experience was somewhat ‘pleasant’. Very unexpected 🙂

Have a wonderful week!

My Sunday Snapshot #16

Hi, welcome to My Sunday Snapshot 16!

Today’s image was purely unintended. The grand girls and I were trying to get the remote shutter connected to the phone when we were taking some selfies of us this weekend. We got a few bloopers. This blooper turned out rather interesting.

Have a wonderful week.

Toilet Paper | My Sunday Snapshot

My Sunday Snapshot #15

Hi, welcome to My Sunday Snapshot 15!

My Sunday Snapshot was taken during my ‘Happy Birthday Party to Me’ party. This year I turned 60 and celebrating 20 years cancer free (with God’s grace)! What I find amusing, this is not my first post about toilet paper. You can see the first post about TP here.

The image above was placed onto each table as the center piece. I have included the center piece in the image below.

Toilet Paper Cake!

The main table center piece was made with many rolls of toilet paper 🙂 My folks contributed the items added to this cake from their own medicine cabinet! Mom thought it was funny when I asked her to contribute to the cake decorations.

No gifts were requested. What I did request was a selfie with each of my guests. There were many, here are some of the guests I knew wouldn’t mind me sharing.

I am so grateful and blessed to celebrate my 60 years and that my folks are with me to do so. This was definitely a milestone I will cherish forever. My family and friends made me feel very special.

Thank you for joining in on my celebration!

Have a wonderful week.

Take Care. Best wishes, Debra

A Little Surprise | My Sunday Snapshot

A little surprise

My Sunday Snapshot #14

Hi, welcome to My Sunday Snapshot 14! I had a little surprise waiting for me when I was cleaning the pool skimmer. Usually the skimmer is filled with leaves and a few small bugs. Well, this time a baby turtle!

Mud turtle

When I first saw this turtle I wondered if it was a snapping turtle. Snapping turtles are not a wanted turtle for our fishing ponds. So I text a picture to Kevin and he was the one who identified my little surprise turtle.

An Apple a Day

My Sunday Snapshot 13

Hi, welcome to My Sunday Snapshot 13! It was a beautiful day. During my lunch break I took a stroll outside. I had seen the cows lined up at the fence row, grabbed an apple to see if I could get one to take it from my hand.

As I got closer to them, the cows backed away from the fence. Do you recognize the brown/red cow? This is the one that first came up to me in the post from Calves Part 2 Notice how much bigger he is?.

He was interested. I just couldn’t get him to take it.
