This isn't the most detailed post, I know, but I just wanted to give some info and pics because it's fascinating to know the species or genus of any mushrooms I find. I believe there are probably 3 species here...
Habitat: the possible oyster mushrooms found growing on a log of course, and the others were found on lawns (i know they aren't active but if posting random mushrooms is an annoyance please inform me)
Gills: off white and creamy orange/white on the others, attached on all mushrooms I believe
Stem: very short on the first species and the others had normal, fairly long, narrow LBM stems.
Spore print color: very very light purple, and light orange-rusty on the smaller mushrooms

The first ones are definitely oysters whith a light lilac print. The others are hard to tell from the blurry photos, but I'd say Agrocybe due to the cracking cap, lawn habitat, and spore color.
Posing random mushrooms is welcomed, but clearer pics and even more details are helpful for more accurate IDs.

Thanks for your input! I have put up a few other cell phone photos, because my camera broke and they turned out rather well, however a few glasses of wine can severely affect the quality of the pictures...there is just about nothing I enjoy more than looking for and finding mushrooms of any kind. This place is great.

It is fine, many of us like pictures of little brown mushrooms more than we like actives.
You have Pleurotus ostreatus and Agrocybe pediades.
