“No Dancing Shoes!” Yes, I forget to post this “yesterday,” but it was after midnight when I got home so technically it would have been today anyway… This is not the photo that I would have liked as my final image for the conclusion of my second year of a picture a day, but this is what my life was today. And the point of this project is to document my life, so here it is. My leg is not…
“Birthday Indulgence” Today I could either get cozy or indulgence, but they didn’t both happen at the same time. I decided to go with just indulgence because it made for a much better picture! Having a birthday so close to Christmas, like anything, has advantages and disadvantages. This year the advantages far outweigh the disadvantages because I got a new lens on both occasions – not a joint gift, but actually two lenses! I freely admit that this is a…
“Surprise!”
“Birthday Bubbles” I had a nice birthday day – church followed by lunch with my favorite friends, a little bit of time blowing bubbles in the afternoon sun, and Latin American cuisine for dinner with my family.
“The Dreamer”
“The Hat” “The hat” is always seasonal attire around here, or at least a hat. This one was perfect for today when it was chilly outside, but not cold enough for a coat, or even a jacket, for that matter. I am such a sucker for the hat and the guy in the hat. The guy in the hat gave me a new lens for Christmas. Surely he knew that if he gave me a lens he would end up…
“Nap Time!” Another Christmas tradition around our house is that after brunch has been eaten and gifts have been opened Harley and Weber climb up in the recliner and have a Christmas nap. I think there is a similar picture to this one from almost every Christmas day that these two have shared. This image is not particularly “Christmassy” in and of itself, so here is a second look at the aftermath of our Christmas morning. We had a wonderful…
“You Decide.” I was drawn to this image of Erin that was taken on her birthday. For someone reason, to me it is perfect for “naughty or nice.” We had a somewhat less frantic Christmas eve than usually. I did get everything wrapped, chili made for Christmas day, and some cleaning done, but I decided that some cleaning just was not going to get done. That’s why they make doors that close. Church was a nice change this year. I…
Today was day two of our marathon week of birthdays – four in six days if you count Jesus. My baby turned twenty two today. Where has the time gone? Both the birthday girl and her sister had to work all day so our celebration consisted of dinner in Fort Worth at Yucatan Taco. (I am including the name of the restaurant because neither Brooke or me could remember where we went last year for Erin’s birthday. Though I…
“Guard Dog” He wouldn’t wear a Santa hat, but Adidas has his serious “sad lab face” on. He feels it necessary to guard the gifts that are under the tree. It is a tough job, but someone has to do it.
