Summer photo-a-day

At times I think I am crazy for giving myself little projects like the Summer Photo-a-day. Then after I have a week of them collected, I am so happy that I took the time to capture these memories. Some days I am torn between many shots as to which one to post and other days I get kinda anxious around 3 or 4 pm if I haven't taken a picture yet for the day. I really want each picture to capture the essence of the day and not just be 'pretty'...so I try not to force them..but to allow them to come to me. Today was a slow day, so I was wondering what I would end up photographing...when the doorbell rang with my new comfy chairs. It didn't take long for the kiddos to plop in them in front of the tv on this sick, rainy day. Here are a few outtakes and pics that didn't get officially chosen for this project.
