As the self-appointed picture-taker, we are rarely in our own photos. We may capture every special moment or event with diligence and thoughtfulness.

But, we do not always make being in our family photos a priority.We are going to host regular photography challenges in hopes that we will motivate you to try new things and improve your photography, perspective and/or quality of your overall photo collection. 

So moms, whether you are typically the photographer in the family or not, we urge you to get in your photos! 

At a minimum, most cameras have a timer where you can set it up, focus, click the button and within about 10 seconds, you can run to join the photo.  Some of you might have a tripod, remote, the works.  In this case, you just need to spend a few minutes staging a photo opp.  When all else fails, just ask someone else to take pics.

Here is one of me and my daughter after making fruit dip for a family party.  This was her first time ever licking the blender blades.

Have fun with this.  Take pictures daily so that you can capture the every day moments. 

You can find us on Flickr.  Please leave a comment with a link to your images.  We would love to see your interpretation of our challenge.

Great concept.  Nothing is worst than returning from a vacation to have memories of everyone else, but no proof that you were even there (outside of the credit card statement).  I personally do not have enough pictures of my children and I.

I suppose the reason is that we know all the circumstances that have occasioned them and so manage to excuse in ourselves mens timberland boots what we cannot excuse in others. We turn our attention away from our own defects, and when we are forced by untoward events to consider them, find it easy to 1condone them. For all timberland 3 eyes boat I know we are right to do this; they are part of us and we must accept the good and bad in ourselves together. But when we come to judge others, it is not by ourselves as timberland work boots we really are that we judge them, but by an image that we have formed of ourselves fro which we have left out everything that offends our vanity or would discredit us in the eyes of cheap timberland boots the world. To take a trivial instance: how scornful we are when we catch someone out telling a lie; but who can say that he has never told not one, but a hundred timberland 6 inch boots? There is not much to choose between men. They are all a hotchpotch of greatness and littleness, of virtue and vice, of nobility and baseness. Some have more strength of timberland roll top boots character, or more opportunity, and so in one direction or another give their instincts freer play, but potentially they are the same. For my part, I do not think I am any better or any worse than most timberland chukka boots people, but I know that if I set down every action in my life and every thought that has crossed my mind, the world would consider me a monster of timberland clearance depravity. The knowledge that these reveries are common to all men should inspire one with tolerance to oneself as well as to others. It is well also if they enable us to look upon our timberland classic lug fellows, even the most eminent and respectable, with humor, and if they lead us to take ourselves not too seriously. Fourscore and seven years ago, our fathers brought timberland 6 inch forth upon this continent a new Nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to theproposition that all men are created equal. Now, we are engaged in a great Civil War, testing whether classic 3eye handsewn burgundy that Nation. HYD
