Scavenger Hunt Sunday

YAY!! YIPPEE! HIP HIP HOORAY!
It's finally SunDAY!
I tried to rhyme. See it there....
HOORAY AND DAY?

Okay, enough of that.
Here are my interpretations for Scavenger Hunt Sunday.
This week it's being hosted by the FABulous Sarah Halstead.  
She is THE Naptime Momtog.
Check her out. You may learn a thing or two.
I know I'm trying :-)
She has some great stuff on her blog. Tutorials and such.


{SUNSET}

A {SUNSET}.... East Texas Style
Just a little pond, in a little pasture.
With my iPhone, no less.
Someone PLEASE give me some tips
for iPhone photos and InstaGram?!

{SWEET}

I.LOVE.SUGAR.
I had so many ideas for this one.
But what I went with...
was a mix of my four favorite candies.
Sweet tarts, Gobstoppers, Nerds and Lemon Head & Friends.
I like chocolate... but not as much as these {SWEET}s!!
Just looking at this picture makes my teeth hurt.
Better make a dentist appointment STAT.


{HANGING AROUND}

The kids and I have been {HANGING AROUND} the park some.
Here's what I've been thinking.
Since she has all this hair, and she thinks she's a princess....
I'll just call her "Your HAIRness."
Instead of  "Your Highness"?!
hehe. I crack myself up.


{FUNNY FACE}

Wonder why our back patio glass door never stays clean?!
Could be Aidan's FISH LIPS smashed on it all the time :-)
He always has a {FUNNY FACE} for us.


{SPACE}

This guy knows nothing about personal {SPACE}.

Seriously. We have three donkies and I think we

have them all so spoiled. 

They think if we're in the pasture, we're only there to pet them.

Or feed them.

So when I'm out snapping pics, I turn around and see THIS!

CHEEEEESE!

Thanks for stopping by! And please, oh please! Leave me some comment love!

Scavenger Hunt

Here's what we came up with this week.
Fun as always  :-)



{MEET ME AT THE CORNER}

The prissy, messy-headed girl at the corner of the road and driveway...
thought she would be meeting the pup, but he was running from her instead :-)
She loves him TO DEATH.
When she "hugs" him, I picture one of those cartoon pups,
with his eyes bulging out!

{MOTHER NATURE MEETS TECHNOLOGY}

Well, mother nature met my technology by way of my iPhone!
While the brats kiddos and I were picking flowers weeds,
I dropped it, and immediately thought of this prompt!
When I first got the phone, hubby insisted that I have the OtterBox for it.
Understandably so.
At least I didn't drop it in the driveway, toilet, pond, driveway, etc. etc.
Trust me, it has been a LOT WORSE than grass and flowers weeds!

{ONE STEP AT A TIME}

Oh, my Lou Lou and her ant bites. She and her brother both got into them in the pasture.
I never even knew they could run that fast.
They ran right into the swimming pool.
Then they had ants swimming with them in the pool!
I never knew ants could swim.
Learned a couple new things, didn't I?!

{WHAT'S WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE}

No, really?! Do you see anything wrong?
I mean other than... my 6 year old is down on the other side of our pond,
In his boxers. And ONLY his boxers. With a camo walkie talkie on his hip.
Trying to rope Jack the donkey?!
Nope, nothing wrong here. Just a typical day at the Pate's.
Oh, and let's just forget the fact that Mama Pate is just snapping away!?
And Jack's not running? He's just like, "Nope. No way. Not gonna do it."

{STANDING TALL}

Hot Rod is such a VICIOUS pup.
He's standing so tall here because he thinks he scared the kitty off.
Look how high his head is, and his backs all arched!
Little does he know, I shooed kitty away.
I just didn't have the heart to tell him, ya know?
He looks so proud of himself.
This is one of the instances where I wish I didn't
have my 50mm prime on the camera.
I could've gotten a shot of the kitty running scared. hehe
Ahhhh, who am I kidding?! I'd rather have that nifty fifty on there
than catch another shot of that crazy cat!

Thanks for stopping by!!

Scavenger Hunt Sunday

It's Sunday... ya know what that means?! Scavenger Hunt Sunday!!  I think my nephew had more fun doing this with me this week than Aidan did.

This weeks prompts are:
Music to my Ears
Hat
Clear
Out of This World
Sprinkles

{Music to My Ears}

 My beautiful friend and her hilarious hubby have been trying to have a baby.

This FB post was music to my ears :-)
No, this isn't a photo I took, but I did do the "screen capture"!
And I put the cute little frame on it. So, there.

{Hat}

"There's a snake in my boot"

I was working on a birthday invite for a friend's 3 yr old.

And of course he wants a Woody/Toy Story b-day party :-)

Smart kid! Anywhoooo.  This stuffed Woody was the first

thing I thought of when I saw "hat".

{Clear}

We had a big pine tree fall in our pasture during a storm recently.

Well, maybe not so recently.

The kiddos found a ton of old bottles around the roots of it.

I don't know how "old" they really are,

but there were some pretty awesome ones.

{Out of This World}

I never, in a million years, would've dreamed that I would

have MOON rocks on my coffee table! WOW!

Okay. Okay.

Aidan and I have been pretending they're moon rocks.

He flew is rocketship to the moon and brought them back for me.

He also drew faces on them... and named each and every one.

{Sprinkles}

My cutie patootie nephew, Trystan, has sprinkles of angel kisses (freckles)

all over his precious little face.
