I know I've written about this site before, but they've really got some interesting stuff going on everyday. I've been meaning to write a post for their current contest for a while, but procrastination has had me putting it off until now, the last day. Prego is sponsering the current photo contest. The prize is $500 of grocery money. And the idea is to find a picture of fun with food. The problem with this is that I take so many pictures. I don't know which one to use. wah!
I know just recently I posted a picture of Ally making cookies with me, and I seriously considered entering one of those. But I didn't want to repeat myself.
Then there's the one of Ally out cold at the lunch table at her day care years ago, but the picture quality isn't that great on it.
And that one of Anya eating her first smore. I love her expression. But it's kind of too busy. And she looks more concerned with the mess than like she's having fun.
We've got watermelon pictures. Been there, done that.
And while I absolutely LOVE this picture: the look in her eye, the obvious smile behind that apple, I have to admit, it's not the greatest composition. And this one doesn't have her face showing (but I love the fall look of it). This one? Ooh, this is so hard.
So after all the pictures I have taken of my kids and their various food fun and messes, I'm going to have to go with this picture. It's not even my kid. But I think it's one of the best pictures I've taken. What do you think? Would you have chosen the same? Will you vote for me if I get to the finalists?
P.S. This is the boy that Ally's going to marry. Of course, she's going to have to fight off all the other girls in her first day care. They're all in love with him.
**5 Minutes for Mom is also doing their wonderful Christmas giveaways right now. You can check out their site for details. It's going to be (already is) awesome.
Love it - you picked the right one!
