Sunday Creative Challenge "Just Because"

"Just Because"
This is my entry for the "Sunday Creative Challenge".  The word was a hard one - "Nothing". 

My husband did not work this weekend and it is nice to have a weekend for the family.  Sunday we took our family to visit their brother at college.  Upon returning Sunday evening, the kids all went to bed early and I turned a movie on (Age of Innocence) and before John conveniently fell asleep (not his kind of movie, I guess) we shared a glass of wine.  Upon seeing the "fancy glasses" my husband said "And the special occasion is?" and I said "Nothing, just because".

7/365 "Color Me Beautiful"

"Color Me Beautiful"
I am attracted to these colors - my wardrobe, home, and even purchased a tube of lipstick (not a wise choice).  I find them very warm and inviting.

4/365 "A Spot of Tea"

"Time for a Chat"

"My Cup of Tea"
I've always admired the visual artistry of tea sets. My oldest son started an almost "obsession" with tea at our house and now we all have fun experimenting with flavors.  Tea time is chat time at our house, whether it is one on one with each child or a whole group of their friends.  Most prefer big coffee mugs of tea, however, my youngest girls adore drinking from these dainty cups.  (I used natural light and no flash.  I wish the shadows were less and I see a bit of reflection.  Hard to get a "studio" shot at home.)
