Wednesday | Ten on Ten

Anyways, I'm {finally} joining Kiki for the Ten on Ten challenge, where you take ten random photos of your day...on the tenth of the month. I've been planning on doing this for seriously months, but always forgot about it until too late. But thanks to Kiki's timely reminder yesterday, here I am!

I slept in a bit late (side effect of staying up 'til 1am reading two nights in a row), piddled around my house for about an hour and then decided to just go spend the rest of the day with my family at Home. I got there about 10:30am and immediately joined Stuart and Karis in a rousing game of Uno Speed, in which I didn't win any of the three games we played (you know what I'm thinking, Kristine! *grin* ). After that the three of us curled up on the couch with big bowls of cheesy popcorn and watched The Rescues Down Under. Because we're mature that way.

I spent the afternoon talking to Mom, filling out another job application, eating healthy, homemade food, washing my car, chillin' on the hammock until I found a spider crawling across my shirt  and went searching for my cat Jones so I could snuggle with her more times that she probably appreciated.

And so with that being said, enjoy my first contribution to Ten on Ten.

  12. Love how you started your post with Anyways :-P And, boy, 10 pix goes fast. I grew up on Rescuers Down Under. I used to have the book but recently got rid of it. It wasn't as endearing as the movie.

    1. Haha, I didn't even think about how I started the post with "anyways," it was just the way I was thinking it as I typed it. Haha. Thanks, Miss Michelle. ;)

      Yah, it seems like there should be more of them...but I guess I did smoosh two photos into one.

      Glad that you also like the Rescuers. Although I noticed this afternoon that the boy is the only Australian who doesn't have an Aussie accent. And did you know the voice of the bad guy is actually George C. Scot??? Never knew that.

  13. Love, love, love, love, love. Love your photos, love that you linked up, and I love all of the soft + rich lighting in each shot.

    Oh, and I love that you did a shout-out to me, too! It made me smile reading my name on your blog. :)

    And now I'm going to bug you every month to join in!

    Kidding (sorta). :)

  14. Ok, it threw me off a bit that another Breanne commented on this post. I hardly ever see anyone else spell their name exactly like I do, ha! Anyway, great job on the images here. The fourth pic is my fav but i also love the simplistic beauty of the last one :)

  19. I just found your blog through a Twitter link from BookSneeze! I also review Christian fiction over at: http://readingwithteddyg.blogspot.com/
    I loved Anomaly, and also enjoyed Barefoot Summer; although being a mom of twins, and reading 2 books in a row that involved a dead twin (Barefoot Summer and An Open Heart) started to be too much for me!
    I look forward to reading more reviews from you!
