7-8-9-10-11-12.
So yesterday Elizabeth Kartchner posted a challenge on her blog to document in a photo what you were doing at the moment of July 8, 2009 at 10:11:12. Get it? 7-8-9-10-11-12. I thought it was a pretty cool thing and there’s a prize involved, so I’m all over that!
Funny thing is, last night at that time I was preparing to go to bed and my daughter and I were lying there having our usual nightly chat in the dark and I grabbed the camera and said we had to take a photo. And hilarity ensued. I can’t remember the last time I laughed that hard. It was dark, so I couldn’t see where the hell I was focusing with the camera. And I was holding the camera up above us in the air with 2 hands, and that’s not really one of my best capabilities, and every time I’d try to take the photo the flash would BLIND US because it was dark. The first photo made me laugh SO hard because Summer’s eyeballs look so SCARY. Oh, I cracked up. (and why do mine look so bloodshot? I swear I wasn’t drinking beforehand) And then it kind of went downhill from there! So I ended up with a bunch of photos and we laughed so hard I’m not sure how they came out un-blurry. And I already have in my mind the makings of a scrapbook page with all these goofy funny photos of us. So thank you Elizabeth for the memory of a fun little few minutes with my daughter!
see what I mean about the eyeballs?

(below photo was where Summer said “I’m going to not look directly at the camera and maybe it won’t blind me.”

(see the bit of cat in the lower right corner above? The cat came in to see what all the laughing was about.)

(above photo was when Summer said “I’m going to try to look down so the flash doesn’t blind me.”)

This next one is probably the best one of the whole bunch.

But I think the last one is my favorite.
I can’t wait to put these in my scrapbook.
