November 2015 Photo Challenge Wrap-Up

So I'm pretty sure I mostly failed my own photo challenge.  The upside is that I did take more photos than I might have otherwise. 

So, without further ado, here are the photos from the last two weeks of the November 2015 Photo Challenge.

November 3:  Music
Didn't happen.
November 10: Colour
Ditto.

November 17: Creativity
Playing "Christmas."

November 18: Technology

November 19: Weather
Nun-uh.

November 20: Water

November 21: Family
Downtown with the in-laws.  Best family I could have become a part of.  

November 22: Nature
Surprisingly, no.

November 23: Love
<3 i="">

November 24: Kindness
I should post a photo of the tea Jen makes me every morning.  The gift of early-morning caffeination is a kind one, indeed.

November 25: Food

November 26: Tradition
Christmas windows downtown.

November 27: Home
I have one on my phone... not sure if I'll be able to figure out how to post it here or not.

November 28: Holidays
Would posting two photos here make up for all the ones I didn't get?  The first isn't stellar, but I can't resist. Pretend the girl-child is looking at the camera and the boy-child isn't talking. ;) 

November 29: Art

November 30: Warmth
I did say I thought I failed the challenge.  

Here's the full list, for anyone who is interested...

November 2015 Photo Challenge, 9-16

As I've already said, I'm participating in a November Photo Challenge and anyone who cares to is welcome to participate.  Leave a link to your post in the comments!

Here is my second installment:

First catching up with...November 4: Comfort

I had to pick up The Bean from school early one day as he had thrown up.  He rarely naps anymore, but fell asleep in his "nest" during quiet time.

And onto this past week (or so)'s photos...

November 9: Touch

 The squirrels at the Public Garden were really bold.  They came right up to us looking for food.

November 10: Colour

I don't have a photo that really stands out for this one, so I'm putting it on my catch up list.

November 11: Memories

I am really drawn to ghost signs.  This was one we walked by in Boston.

November 12: Clothing

My suitcase all packed up for my trip. It was such a shocking realization that packing for only myself is SO easy. In fact, I could have gotten away with bringing much less than I did.

November 13: Rest

Admittedly, this is a bit morbid and not at all what I had in mind when I came up with the word "rest" on this list. But many of the gravestones in the Boston cemeteries had this image on them. I need to do some research to find out the history on it. 

November 14: Friendship

Taken by by best friend's fiancee. My best friend and I have both had some ups and downs the past few years that have indirectly impacted our friendship. It was good to spend time together this weekend. 

November 15: Movement

The Bean very rarely stops moving. This blurry photo is from a bedroom dance party.

November 16: Beauty

I know why they put the bench by this tree. I could have sat and started at it for ages. Gorgeous. 

And here's the full list for anyone who wants to join in...

November 2015 Photo Challenge, 1-8

Along with Little Monster(s) & Mommies and Two Lasses, a Baby Three Children, I am co-hosting a November photo challenge. For anyone who wants (needs) motivation to blog this month, here it is. Come join us!  (It's not too late to start!)

All you have to do is:
-take photos using the daily prompts.
-post them on your blog. (I plan to post weekly, because daily photos never mind daily blog posts aren't really that likely to happen.) 
-come back here and comment to let us know you're playing along. 

Here is my first installment:
November 1: Shadows
Not only were we out at the perfect time of day for casting shadows, I like how Sprout is following The Bean in this one.  She really is his little shadow.

November 2:  Routine

The first thing she says whenever we get anywhere is, "I'm hungry.  Did you bring a snack?"  So here she is, munching on chicken fingers at 9am.

November 3:  Music
Next week, perhaps?

November 4: Comfort
See above.

November 5: Words

November 6: Change
Jen says of all this needs an explanation. 
Since starting school we have seen a HUGE difference in The Bean's interest in "written work" (both drawing and writing). He insisted on bringing along some new notepads and pencil crayons on our nature walk and would sit down at various intervals to write his notes. Prior to this he was solely into the hiking and jumping and throwing of stones into the when we went on our nature walks. This is clearly very important work to him these days.

November 7: Animals

November 8: Sky

And here are the daily prompts for the entire month:
