These 5 beautiful women all live near each other and attend church together. They planned a weekend away and invited me to join them. I don't know why I was so blessed to have friends like these, but God is good and this weekend was wonderful! We had our last meal together before they dropped me off at home. I am so grateful for the time I was able to spend with them. 250/365 ~ Prompt Free | Adventure | I Feel So Small | Huge Lake
Today's activity brought the six of us on the retreat to the North Shore where we explored Gooseberry Falls. It was spectacular! The falls run into Lake Superior and that is what I have photographed here. This lake is huge and yes, I feel so incredibly small. I have visited this place a few times and I am so blessed to be able to do these things with special people. 250/365 ~ Backlit | Reflection | Water | Evening
The fall colors are coming! This is so exciting for me because this is my absolutely favorite time of year! This weekend I get to enjoy seeing some of the colors with some good company on a women's retreat. Already having so much fun and so relaxed! 249/365 ~ Inside | Hight ISO | Bad Light | Noise
Blake loves his room so much He has barely left his space. He's currently working on a story about him and his dad hunting. I can't wait to read it. 247/365 ~ With Manual Focus | Intentional | Selective | Choosy
It's the first day of school! I have two 6th graders and a 2nd grader this year. Our tradition is to walk to school on the first day and we weren't going to let the rain stop us. Oh how I pray this is a positive year for my munchkins and all the sweet babies going back to school. 246/365 ~ 12.3 Years of Sharing Space | Separate and Loving It | Major Changes | Finally Done
(Off Prompt) After 8 months in the womb and 11 years and 7 months of sharing a bedroom, they are finally in their own space. We made good on our promise that they would be in their bedrooms before school starts. We couldn't have been closer because tomorrow they start school. This is huge! There may have been more than one of us with happy tears today (me and Blake). Both boys are extremely grateful and so excited for this new experience! Their bed frames and the baseboards are the only pieces missing. We needed to split the bunks apart so I can stain them and my hubby will put the baseboards on then they will be complete. 245/365 ~ Manual Mode | Off of Auto | In Control | Learning
I have been shooting my camera in manual mode since 1/1/14 when I joined CY365 for the first time. I love it! The only other setting I use is aperture mode. I love the freedom it gives me to shoot photos like this - a happy puppy playing with an apple while we sit around the fire with my Hubby's family. 244/365 ~ Off Prompt | Bursting With Pride | 3rd Purple | 2nd Brown
My babies tested for their next belt rank today and each one passed. I now have a 3rd Purple and 2 with their 2nd Brown Belts. Each class and each test brings us closer and closer to their Black Belts. Then we'll see where they continue on to. |

This is my FOURTH challenge! I completed an entire 365 in 2014 - then in 2015, I tried to do something different and failed miserably so after finishing 2016 successfully I just had to keep going in 2017! I am part of an amazing group of talented photographers who post an image from an interpretation of a prompt that we receive every day in our e-mail. It's so neat to see how differently a person perceives a simple word or concept and how they translate that into a photograph. I enjoy this challenge very much and I am looking forward to seeing what 2018 brings! You can view my past projects by clicking the links below for each year. CY365
