Looks like I wasn't wrong, it's been just over a month since that last photo challenge post. Grad Girl is still pretty swamped with trying to finish up grad school and I just couldn't come up with any ideas for how to approach this challenge. Only My Guy had any photos. He wanted to move on, so I promised to figure something out and post whatever we had today. These aren't the best photos we've taken, but they work.
I finally took a few photos, but absolutely nothing was working for me. So I got creative.

| Kate: Sleeping Beauty (and her cat) |
This is not AI created. Wish I could blame it on that, but I did this with one of my photos and My Memory Suites. It's far from perfect, but it strangely works. At least I think it does. As My Guy said last night, we set the rules. I'm just glad to be done with this challenge.
My Guy made a special trip out last night to get a toy for his photos. I think it paid off.

| My Guy: Classic Tale |
That's one large frog and one small princess (Also known for her sleep habits, sense a theme?). I don't know where he got the doll, but he improvised really well.
Grad Girl has been insanely busy and stressed. She really hasn't had much creativity to spare since she's trying to write her thesis. So I went through the photos she's texted over the last month and picked one that worked if you had the right point of view.

| Grad Girl: Rosina Leckermaul's Pantry |
If you don't know who Rosina Leckermaul is, that's the name given to the witch from Hansel and Greta in an opera from 1892. The German translation of the name is Raisin Sweet-Tooth. The witch is given no name in the original story, but is also known as the Gingerbread Hag (thank you Google). Grad Girl sent me this picture with the question, "Am I getting an Easter basket this year?". She dearly loves Peeps.
So that's our efforts for this challenge. Did we do it justice? I'm hoping it at least gave you a smile. Sometimes that's the best kind of picture. My Guy drew the next challenge card.
When I told Grad Girl what the next challenge was she texted "Oh good, an easy one". My sentiments exactly!

I think you did great with this Fairy Tale challenge and I learned a few things too reading this post. Thanks for that. Love that Grad Girl photo the best. Love Peeps too.
Fairy Tale really was a difficult challenge. I got a big kick out of your husband's "kissing a frog" scenario. When your daughter finishes up grad school she won't know what to do with all of her time. LOL
Yes! These brought a smile. I want to get a set of these cards to a sister in law who loves photography
Enjoyed the photos and hearing about the challenge in doing them--like them all--and wish Grad girl a good finish her work--hugs, di
I think each of your photos is fun! What you did with your photo of Grad Girl and Queenie is perfect for the challenge, and I love your guy's photo, too. I'm not a fan of Peeps, but the variety that there are in the stores always cracks me up. You definitely made me smile with these photos, Kate!
Love these. Very cute. It seemed as if it had been a while, so I’m glad these are back. “Bottle” should be fun. The mind reels with possibilities.
I think you all did it justice. Who knew there were so many flavors of peeps?
I think you all did great with the challenge, I love each one! I had to smile at Grad Girl asking about an Easter basket. :)
Great photos that yes, did give me a smile! I did not know the witch was given a name, well I guess two. I really like your photo-it has a real dreamy (lol, just realized what I was typing) maybe ethereal is better, quality.
