Normally, I would be excited about this theme/inspiration. I love taking outdoor and nature shots. Today, however, was not a day for me to get out and explore. Homework and studying called. All I had time for was to take a picture from one of our decks.

Meal
My oldest and I had a mommy and me day. I brought her to dance and gymnastics, we went to a friend's house, and then she had a birthday party. After the party, we decided to go to dinner with friends of ours that were also at the party. We had delicious Pagliacci Pizza. Afterwards, we went did a little shopping, and then we went home. It was a great day!

Spooky
My husband and I were Gomez and Morticia Addams for Halloween. The girls were curious who we were, so we showed them a clip of the intro song. They both have become obsessed with the song, and with Morticia in particular. We have listened to, and have sung, the theme song more times than I can count. "They're creepy and they're kooky, mysterious and spooky, they're all together ooky, the Addams family." When I said that my theme for the day was spooky, my 2 year old started singing this theme song. Funny thing is, I wish I could use a picture of my husband's "crazy eyes" for this post. But, that wouldn't count for the challenge (though I think I will post at least one as a bonus).
For today's challenge, I am going to confess. I cheated. I used an actual camera; not my phone. I could not for the life of me get my phone to focus where I wanted it to! And, while the subject matter is more creepy, it is pretty spooky to me.

I don't like spiders. I get the creepy-crawlies and do an involuntary twitch when I see them (I am shuddering as I type this whenever I glance at the pictures), especially ones this size. This guy (girl?) has it lucky. It is outside. I made a deal that I would not kill them if they are outside, so long that they don't block major entrances, etc. It seems that they are taunting me though. There is a spider like this in a window on every side of the house - they have me surrounded. I guess it is a drawback of living in a house surrounded by woods. To make this even spookier, S looks out the window and says "Awww" (in a sweet, endearing voice). She then proceeds to kiss the window where the spider is/would be if it were on the inside. This girls is going to test me for sure!
And here is your bonus spooky:

Mode Of Transportation
Mode of transportation was yesterday's photo challenge theme. I did take the picture yesterday; I just didn't get it posted until today. I decided to go with the original mode of transportation:

Repose
Today on my inspiration tap? Repose. Many ideas flitted through my mind for a photo for this. I hadn't decided which way I wanted to go. Sleeping children are always so sweet, but I don't want this to turn into simply a family photo album.
It was time to sit down to work on my homework for my Survey of Anthropology class. I set up a comfy place on the couch, grabbed my book, and was about to get into it. Then Mia, our cuddly at always the wrong times cat, decided now would be a good time to curl up on my lap. Trying to work around her became tedious so off to the internet I went. After wasting some time, I looked down at my lap, and there it was, repose. And if I'm not going to do cute and cuddly children, there might as well be another cat picture on the internet!
