This week Elle was out riding bikes with a neighbor.  This is the first summer the kids have had neighborhood friends. It is so nice to hear them running back and forth from each others houses.  We lived in the country with no close neighbors, save the grandparents, for the first four years of Elle’s life.  Now she is a big five and a half year old running with the gang!

Still she has her sense of style as noted in this picture.  Notice how the camo pants set off the purple and pink just so, with her summer dress blowing in the wind.  At least she is wearing shoes now, even if they are rain boots!

Check out more You Capture at I Should Be Folding Laundry.  Next weeks theme is Water.   I should get some good shots at King’s  Island this weekend.

This weeks “You Capture” theme is  Real Life.  I was trying to decide between two pictures. One was of a sticky eyeball toy that I found on one of my baseboards, because it didn’t phase me at all to see it there. Only in  a house full of four kids would an eyeball looking at you not cause panic.  The picture showed to much floor board dirt though…. The other photo was this one:

One of these days I’ll catch up with my own laundry and not just the kids’ and Hubby’s! Next weeks challenge is Sunrise/Sunset.  I wonder if that means I have to get up early?  The neighbors will know I’m crazy now when they see me outside in my pajamas taking pictures.

Each week the blog “I Should Be Folding Laundry” hosts a different topic for us  to capture in photos.  This week’s theme is Autumn, and have I got a few pictures to share!  Granted I am not a professional photographer like FireMom,  but I still like pictures!
