Lines, Lines Everywhere there’s Lines

in You Capture

Lines.

Lines.

And more lines.

I wait in my share of them.

Lucky for y’all I decided not to bore you with pictures of the car-pool line at school, the line at the Doctor’s office, or the line of children waiting to check out at Santa’s Workshop this week. Santa’s workshop warrants a whole blog post of its own, but I’ll save that for a slow blog day.

In the meantime, Beth challenged us to shoot (take?) pictures of lines. On any given day here at the McResidence I could take a picture of a line of CARS. They are lined up all over the house. Currently, there are six CARS lined up on the coffee table because the boys said the CARS wanted to watch the television. I could have taken an awesome picture of some lines when Stevie’s cub-scout troop toured the television station this week because there was a big antannae thing in the midst of some satellites that had some really cool lines, but unfortunately, it was dark and cold and well, I have no idea how to take pictures in the dark, so, you’ll just have to take my word for it.

I did get some pretty cool indoor shots if I do say so myself. And, yes, I usually say so myself.

These are the lines that appear in McDaddy’s forehead when he’s wrestling in the floor with Alex and he scrunches his face up because Alex is trying to do some sort of DDT move on him. I asked him to hold real still for about four seconds so I could shoot this.

I was actually laying down in the floor beside of the wrestling match shooting this shot.

Which happens to be a Longaberger laundry hamper with some really cool lines when its shot from the bottom.

Then, I got maneuvered myself back around to look for lines around the house when it dawned on me that its not hard to find lines. In fact, we (or at least I) carry lines around with me everyday.

I’m sure all those lines tell some sort of palmistry story, but unfortunately I know nothing at all about life lines and whathaveyou. I do know that these were meant for lovin’ and were not made for serious or dirty work because as you recall, I am a princess.

This next one is a shot of the place-mats on my dining room table.

And my bathroom wall-paper (makes you want to tour the McResidence, huh?) which could also fit the plaid or square category, I suppose.

And finally, this little guy is part of our Christmas decorations. He sits in a little Longaberger sled beside of his bear buddies.

Like I said, “Lots of lines!”

This was a fun week!

Head over to I Should Be Folding Laundry for more Line pictures!

You do have lots of lines at your house Julie! The car pool line at my son’s school is the worst… if I don’t get there early I could sit forever. Or for 30 minutes which equates to forever in this busy season : )

Great captures! And your placemats — I have a tablecloth in that exact pattern that I just pulled out of one of the Christmas decoration boxes this morning.

I like the lines on your placemat! Love your title, too. I thought of that when I was doing my line shots!

Nice. I like the placemats, but I’m not so sure about plaid walls. I’ll have to “go” think about that for a bit….
