NaNoWriMo!

/ Rebecca Barray / 2 Comments

Hello!

Just wanted to let you guys know that I won’t be doing a photo a day challenge this month since I’ll be participating in NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month). If you’re interested, all the details are here. It’s fun and exciting and can really help you get started and/or finished writing your novel. There’s still time to join up! Why not? I’ll be writing pretty much every minute I can. You can follow my progress if you like with the nifty meter over on the right.

I’ll still participate in the weekly prompt over at WordsmithStudio.org on Thursdays. And may join in the WordPress Weekly Photo Challenge when I need a break from writing. ;)

Happy writing to all my fellow NaNo-ers, and photo fun to all you happy snappers!

Becca ♥

October Photo Challenge Day 22: In My Town

October Photo Challenge Day 18: Made Me Smile Today

/ Rebecca Barray / Leave a comment

Today, I was writing at my laptop while the kids, Baby Girl, 2, and Baby Boy, 3, played in the game room. When I looked around the corner to make sure they were okay, this is what I saw:

Toddler Hide n Seek: “Found You!”

He was crouching behind the open cabinet door and she was pointing at him, saying, “Found you!” It was so cute. They play hide and seek sometimes with their big brother, who is 13. Baby Boy really likes it and, apparently, wanted to share the fun with Baby Girl. ;)

You can find the whole list for this month’s photo challenge here or over on the right —>;. There’s still lots of month left, so I hope you’ll join in. If you do, be sure to let me know in the comments so I can see what you come up with. These monthly challenges are so much fun!!

Those adorable babies make me smile everyday. :D What makes you smile? Got a funny photo? Show me!!

October Photo Challenge Day 11: Something Close Up

/ Rebecca Barray / 2 Comments

This is a close up of pine needles I saw while hiking on Falls Trail at Twin Falls State Park in West Virginia this past weekend. The falls were beautiful and I’ll be posting some photos soon, so keep a weather eye. :) Sorry, I’ve been watching too much Jake and the Neverland Pirates on Disney Junior. I do love that channel. :Þ
