Wow, Theme Day this month really snuck up on me! I missed last month's Theme Day for some reason, can't remember why but I'm sure I had a good excuse and by the time I realized it's time again for Theme Day, it was too cold and wet outside to try to get some pictures so I decided to plow through my picture files and see what would strike me as "waiting"....so, all of a sudden it hit me, this is waiting, in a sense, for me. I'll explain....Sunday Braden and Dalton were invited to a Birthday Party at a roller skating rink. Here all the boys are in the party room, eating pizza and Birthday cake and were laughing at each other because the icing on the cake made their tongues blue so I told them I'd take their picture with their blue tongues. Remember, my camera is broken and stuck on one setting and it's zoom only. So here we are in a tiny party room and I'm telling the kids "skooch in closer, ok, closer, that's good, skooch together just a little closer" as my back is as pressed to the back wall of the room as I can get, I finally, almost, get all the boys in the shot,lol...so, I'm "WAITING" on Santa to bring me a new camera! I've been good (for the most part)...so please Santa, if you are reading this, please bring me that Canon Power Shot, like my old one that broke (before this one that broke) that allowed even me to take good pictures! I'll be "waiting"!

ReplyDeleteha ha, what a story! Great shot of the kids too.
ReplyDeleteI hope Santa hears you. Another month to wait is long enough!
I sure hope Santa hears you my dear. He's a pretty good guy I've heard.

I love this one. I remember going to skating birthday parties when I was a kid. I didnt know they still did them. I hope you get your wish, happy waiting.
ReplyDeleteI wonder how long the boys had to 'wait' before the blue wore off. We're all 'waiting' with you, hoping Santa is able to deliver the camera on Christmas. But I still love the challenge of taking everything on zoom and how you manage to get such fun images with it.
ReplyDeletethis is great. makes me laugh. super interpretation for theme day and such energy from those great kids
ReplyDeleteGreat minds...Tanya. As you wrote a comment on my blog I had already clicked on yours! didn't know you had camera problems. Apologies I've been away a while and not commenting. Your choice is great for today and I do hope you get the camera you want for Christmas. Mine came early - well my pressie to me cos no one else would buy it for me.
ReplyDeleteI'll get Santa right on it!!
ReplyDeletewonderful pic! am sure santa will fulfil your wish and end your waiting.
ReplyDeleteGood one! ;-)
ReplyDeleteHang on a little longer Tanya! It will be worth the wait.
ReplyDeletecute :)
ReplyDeleteFor a camera stuck on zoom you managed to get a decent shot - hope santa smiles on you.
ReplyDeleteSuch little monkeys; cameras bring out the best in them. They certainly looked as though the edge of WAITING was removed by the food and attention!
ReplyDeleteYou remind me of that funny Xmas song
ReplyDelete"Santa baby
just slip a "camera" under the tree for me
Been an awful good girl
Santa baby so hurry down the chimney tonight...."
I noted the order of the Canon
ReplyDeleteSanta
Lol! Funny post!
ReplyDeleteHope you don't have to wait too long!
Surely makes the kids wait for next years party as well.
ReplyDeleteA wonderful Wednesday for you all.
Such cute little red heads with blue tongues!
ReplyDeleteWell, it looks like you've been good after all because Santa said he's listening.
Those blue tongues made me remember my own childhood — we loved any food that colorized our tongues, teeth and lips!
ReplyDeleteI hope Santa gives you that new camera so you can stop waiting! :)
Very clever, Tanya, and very funny story too! :-)
ReplyDeletegreat story - best of TD posts on the out-of-the-ordinary interpretation.
ReplyDeleteEasily I agree but I about the collection should acquire more info then it has.
