Scavenger Hunt Sunday - June 30, 2013
Summer has arrived with a bang! We went from rainy, cool 65 degree weather on Monday to 98 degree weather today with 104 expected for this coming Monday - Talk about a sudden change in climate.
So let's get started shall we on this week's Scavenger Hunt Sunday.
The prompts this week were: Tools, Motion, Sweet, Dots and Stripes. - Click to Enlarge photo's.
TOOLS: - Caught this shot of hubby last week working with some tools in our back yard area. He kinda looks a bit weary here me thinks!
MOTION: You get 2 for this prompt because I liked them both.
My mom's new dog, Pixie running towards me. Look at her go!
Coleen started her summer swimming lessons this week. - Look at her go!
SWEET:
Local "sweet" Bing Cherries - Yum!
DOTS: Our cat, Dottie, Can you figure out why we named her that?
STRIPES: Some candy striped petunia's from my garden. I had a little fun playing around with textures on this photo.
So that's it for me. - Coleen is participating this week if you'd like to check out her photo's at http://creativecoleen.blogspot.com/2013/06/scavenger-hunt-sunday-june-30-2013.html .

Great pool shot! Cherries - can't wait for them - they're my favorite.
ReplyDeleteYes, yard work tends to make the body weary indeed. Love the dots prompt. Have a blessed week.
ReplyDeleteLook out olympics, here comes Coleen! Great prompts! Stay cool out there, my sister said it's brutal.
ReplyDeleteDottie is beautiful! I can see why you had a hard time choosing between the two motion shots.
ReplyDeleteNice job! Your hubs looks like he's going to collapse! Love dots the cat, and the stripes are pretty too. Happy week Ida!
ReplyDeleteGreat ones, Ida! Colleen looks like quite a good swimmer! Hurrah for summer swimming lessons when you get to go to the pool everyday! Also, love you interpretation of stripes...beautifully done!
ReplyDeleteOh a new header...very nice!! Love your line-up this week, especially that one of your hubby...he does look pooped!!
ReplyDeleteBeing a lover of all things cat, you can guess which is my favorite photo.
ReplyDeleteThat swim photo looks familiar :)
ReplyDeleteLove your Dottie and your candy striped petunias.
I commented on Coleen's blog so you can let her know I'm not some creep :).
Your mothers dog...so cute!
Fun, fun! Love the picture of your mom's new dog! How wonderful! And so glad that Coleen got into the swimming lessons - looks like she really enjoys it!

Love the bowl of cherries!
ReplyDeleteI like the flower picture and quote, Ida.
ReplyDeleteI haven't had any new crop cherries yet. They are always a big hit at our house.

I think your hubby might look weary cause that's hard work with those tools. Hope this wasn't in the 98 degree weather. :)
ReplyDeleteColleen is looking like a champ.
How sweet that your Mom got a new doggie. Lovely little glint in his eye.
Yummy looking cherries!
I think your stripes is so perfect! I like the out of the box thought behind it.
Your hubby does look beat! I hope he's not out there working in this heat wave we're havng. Not quite as hot here as there, though. We're in the high 70's - low 80's. Pretty warm for us on the coast and with no air conditioning it hard to get to sleep at night. The temp doesn't drop off much at night. I'm a wimp and want our cooler weather back! Thanks for sharing all your fabulous photos, Ida!
ReplyDeleteoh no, your poor hubby does look exhausted and not liking the camera, LOL.
ReplyDeleteYour daughter is a great swimmer. what and adorable cat and dog...love furry kids.

Love the polka dotted cat! And Colleen looks like she enjoys swimming more than your husband is enjoying his yard work.
ReplyDeleteLove the "tools" shot. Is your hubby in construction?
ReplyDeleteCherries have been so good!! Great job on the swimming lessons--such a great sport and exercise! Love those striped petunias!
ReplyDeleteA wonderful series of photos.
ReplyDeleteYour husband looks like he was just about tired of using his tools. Your dog is pretty cute and I really like the stripes. Thank you for your comment on my hunt. Hope to see you in future weeks!
ReplyDeleteOh, now I see! You have a shot of your husband with tools. LOL. Those bing cherries look delicious.
ReplyDeleteOh, now I understand. You have a photo of your husband with tools also. LOL. Those bing cherries look so appealing. It can be hard to take good food photos.
ReplyDeleteGreat shot - love Tools!
