I&#8217;ve come across mirrors and signs in stores that I kind of like, but don&#8217;t love. It suddenly occurred to me last week that I want to put a large canvas photo there. The silly thing is that the idea was in my head while we were building the house, I could envision it and everything, but then forgot. D&#8217;uh! So now I&#8217;m on the hunt for the perfect photo. Something with depth, something with water (not sure why, but I feel drawn that way), and something with fun memories. I&#8217;ve been exploring the blog trying to find that &#8220;just right&#8221; photo. Here are some ideas. I&#8217;m not sure they&#8217;re perfect though.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_5364\" style=\"width: 510px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/familyblog.datdec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/img_2958.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5364\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-5364\" src=\"http:\/\/familyblog.datdec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/img_2958-500x375.jpg\" alt=\"both kids\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" srcset=\"https:\/\/familyblog.datdec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/img_2958-500x375.jpg 500w, https:\/\/familyblog.datdec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/img_2958-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-5364\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">I love them.<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_3482\" style=\"width: 510px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/familyblog.datdec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/10\/img_4839.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3482\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-3482\" src=\"http:\/\/familyblog.datdec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/10\/img_4839-500x375.jpg\" alt=\"pond\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" srcset=\"https:\/\/familyblog.datdec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/10\/img_4839-500x375.jpg 500w, https:\/\/familyblog.datdec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/10\/img_4839-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-3482\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The pond<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_10163\" style=\"width: 385px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/familyblog.datdec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/IMG_7840-e1363544185819.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10163\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-10163\" src=\"http:\/\/familyblog.datdec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/IMG_7840-e1363544185819-375x500.jpg\" alt=\"to the beach\" width=\"375\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/familyblog.datdec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/IMG_7840-e1363544185819-375x500.jpg 375w, https:\/\/familyblog.datdec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/IMG_7840-e1363544185819-768x1024.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 375px) 100vw, 375px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-10163\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">To the beach!<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_10165\" style=\"width: 510px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/familyblog.datdec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/IMG_7845.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10165\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-10165\" src=\"http:\/\/familyblog.datdec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/IMG_7845-500x375.jpg\" alt=\"happy\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" srcset=\"https:\/\/familyblog.datdec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/IMG_7845-500x375.jpg 500w, https:\/\/familyblog.datdec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/IMG_7845-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/familyblog.datdec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/IMG_7845-400x300.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-10165\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Happy kids on the beach!<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Or maybe this one.
