Monday Mugs: Shades

Happy Monday! This is our last Monday of summer break. Yep-school starts next Monday! I cannot believe it. Lucas finally admitted last night that he is a little nervous about school starting-which was pretty apparent by his behavior lately. But we had a good talk and next week Eric is going to give him a father's blessing (a special prayer of peace and comfort) before school starts so I think he will be good to go. It will be weird having him gone all day 8:15-2:45. Plus he will be buying a lunch at school for the first time, at least some of the days...

But that is all a post for another day. Today, since it is Monday I am linking up with the lovely Heather from Oswald Cuties. She hosts a weekly photo meme, she will tell what the theme is for that week and you post pictures that fit. Easy huh? This week's theme is shades.

I immediately thought of sunglasses, but then wondered if she meant shades of colors? But I am going with what I originally thought.

First we have Alex in all her, I'm cute and I know it attitude and glory.And then Eric wearing his shades-they are prescription ones. And I love love this picture, I have it blown up big hanging in my house (speaking of which one of the these days I will have to show some pictures of our new house)And oh so cute baby in his shades! This pic is actually about 6 months old- but just still one of my favorites
And lookie-lookie- it's me! And also an old picture- my hair is quite a bit shorter now. But I like this one, it was a self portrait with my phone.The only one I don't have a picture of is Lucas... I don't even know if he owns a pair of sunglasses, he is a hat boy. Sorry bud!

So head on over to Oswald Cuties and see the other great shade posts and play along!

  6. You mentioned the S...word! We don't start until Aug 30th so I had to plug my ears and shut my eyes as not to be reminded of the dreaded day!

    Not that I have any kids at home or anything, but I still have to go back!

    As for that darling family of yours, well...they are just that, absolutely darling!!
