Can you delete my mr. linky entry(#465-smirks). I used the wrong permalink.

So here is my entry:

This is my first entry so I was a little confused. Sorry. :(
Love the theme…there are some great photos posted!

I instantly thought of my two nephews during their last photo shoot. They started arguing about something and then the laughter broke out…except for my youngest nephew. He had to get one last punch in and then he giggled too. http://kristi-kikiscorner.blogspot.com/2010/09/i-heart-faces-smirk-challenge.html

This is my first entry, too! I think I messed it up though… I linked it to my Facebook because I didn’t have a blog. But, then I decided to make a blog! The entries look amazing. Great job everyone!

This is my first time entering your contest, I really I hope I did it correctly. My picture is of my friend Becki, titled subtle smirk. I actually titled it that before I even saw the contest, so picking a shot was a no brainer. :)

I’m loving the different interpretations of smirk!

My entry is of my oldest niece, the champion of smirkers. She is something else. It’s a family trait…my husband has it, my son, and I imagine my sister-in-law has it too but I mostly see her smile. :-)

I knew immediately which picture I was going to enter today. I love the look on my sons face. I told him to be tough and this is what I got. Love it!

31 Doris September 20, 2010

I thought of photo immediately for this challenge. My definition of a smirk? An annoyed smile of course!

My smirk can be seen:

This week was so much harder than I thought because I didn’t realize how many smirk photos I had! So much fun though, I love the different kinds of smirks people have submitted. Great work everyone!

I’ve had this shot of one of my boys just waiting for this challenge! Apparently he wasn’t as impressed with his Cootie playing skills as I was…

I have always loved this photo of my two boys. It defines their relationship perfectly – Linus looks up to his big brother in every way, literally and figuratively. Charlie Brown, on the other hand, forces himself to tolerate his roommate, his sibling, his tagalong. CB loves his privacy and doing his own thing, but when he needs a playmate, who’s the first one he goes looking for?

I capture my son’s semi-smirk on our way to his first soccer game! He was playing coy with me but you can tell he’s so excited about getting to play in uniform.

I think this photo personifies the annoyance my sons show when I won’t stop saying, “look at Mommy!” when I’m taking pictures of them.

I had a really hard time choosing. As I try do do spur of hte moment snapping it gets me quick a few smirks. Ones on purpose and ones not.
I decided to go for a beachy, unpurposed one because it was so sweet the way she had her nose scrunched up!

ok.. so I was pumped to enter for my first ever challenge.. but after going thru all the steps, for some reason my entry is not showing up? Is there a delayed show time? I tried refreshing, but it still isn’t showing up? hmmmm.

Oh help! I entered once and I thought it didn’t go through, and so tried again, but now I see that a bunch just went through all at the same time – can someone erase one? I’m sorry – that was an accident :(

I think this photo challenge could also have been called “Showing Some Attitude”! lol! I love all the unique personalities that are showing up in each entry. :)
