Busting a Move and Trying Something New.

I think it is time to stop doing the Then and Now Thursday posts. I was hoping it would catch on as a meme but it really has not. I think it required too much work with scanning old photos and such. I may post every now and then (like the play on words) but not weekly. Thanks to everyone who did take some time to play along. I appreciate it. I really do.
Forever In Blue Jeans
Now I think I'm starting to participate in Forever in Blue Jeans' Where's Mom Challenge. The goal is take a photo of yourself with your kids once a week for 52 weeks. You know so that they know you were really around and capture some nice memories. I'm always behind the camera so this is a great meme for me to try.

My kids love to have dance parties in the living room. Here we all are busting a move.

I think this is a great theme! I liked Then and Now Thursdays too, but you're right getting the old photos on the web was a challenge.

You're such a fun mom!!! You could be my twin. You're wearing my favorite things to wear...a hoodie and jeans. I wear those almost every single day!

Welcome to Where's Mom. It's my favorite carnival - I didn't want to be asked "where were you mom?" down the road.

I love how you all are really into your dancing. There's nothing like spinning and busting a move. We get some crazy grooves on too.

This sounds like such a fun meme. Of course it would mean that I would have to post pictures of myself and not just my children. That would require much time with wardrobe and make up. Not to mention that my kids are teenagers now and I would have to locate them and convince them to spend more than three and half minutes in the same room with me. And then I would have to enjoy that time with them....actually I'm just kidding...sort of...it would be a great thing to do with your kids. The time just sort of slips away and before you know it they are another year older...

Carin said...

oh those pictures are so much fun. My two year old started to dance and it just cracks me up. Great pictures, can't wait to see more.

What fun pics!

I really need to get more pics of me with the boys. It usually just happens on holidays, when I shove the camera in someone else's hands.

This is so cute!!! We have dance parties in our living room too... although, my daughter's version of dancing at this point (16 months) is standing and shaking her bottom. It's painfully adorable!

So fun! That reminds me of us and our kids! They LOVE to dance and be silly! Those are great pictures!!

Oh, and I LOL'd at what you wrote on your profile about your in-laws! Haha! My sis in law reads my blog, so I sometimes have to be careful. I wish I never shared my blog with her.

What fun! I just love all of the action dance move shots.

Erin said...

Those are so cute...I danced and danced with my kids when they were little, but there is no photographic evidence!

Shady Lady said...

Oh sure! I finally get a scanner and you cancel the meme! Sheesh! Of course, I would have had to dig out the old box of photos...

Anyway, the Where's Mom meme sounds like fun! Now I just have to find someone to take the picture.

Getting silly with the kids is such a lot of fun. It's great that you are able to capture these moments with them --and with you in the photo, too! :)

Very fun! Love the action going on here. That's usually when we're having too much fun to stop and take the picture. :)
