you capture -- silence

This week's challenge is halloween (see a few posts below) and silence.  I was challenged by silence because I did not find myself in the midst of much silence this past week.  It was a busy week of caretaking kiddos and having friends over.  After sitting and pondering what in the world respresented silence I decided to capture the nativity we got in Ecuador this summer.  It was an opportunity to inward reflect the silence that must have been present as the Christ child entered the world.  I'm sure there were many moments of silence during the scene we can only imagine. 




I still haven't figured out how to change the order in which they post; so sorry!  I'm working on my blogging skills : )  Have a great day!

    Stephanie! Please tell me that you printed, framed, and hung the 'Gnome Under The Tree'. If not, you HAVE to! :)

    Hey ---I'm so glad you are doing You Capture! It's fun! :) Love the little nativity from Ecuador. What a great thing to buy there & be reminded of your time there every Christmas! :) And I can show you how to move pics around! :) But that means we need to actually get together and hang out. :)

    thanks for all the great comments. we chose the gnome because nash's grandparents collect gnomes for their yard. when i saw the costume i thought he had the perfect face for a gnome. we will definitely be choosing some pics to frame as keepers!
