Don't smile Matthew, whatever you do...don't smile. Yay I'm all caught up with my photos! Oh not for long with another trip to Pittsburgh this weekend and then going to Georgia next week. Oh well I'll give it a try.

February 25, 2009

Caught! She knows she's not supposed to get up there, but she does it anyway. She tried to get away from me when she saw the camera, but I was faster than her this time. Oh Kate.....look what is going on when you're off at school!

February 24, 2009

Yep I cheated again. This is right in front of Kate's apartment building.

February 23, 2009

Another shot taken driving down the road, there seem to be a lot of them. This was actually taken on Friday when I drove to Pittsburgh, but it is the photo of the day for this day because I didn't have another. Cheated!

February 22, 2009

Pennsylvania sunset. This shot was taken driving home, full speed. Shouldn't do that I guess, lol.

February 21, 2009

This is the street that Kate's school is on. I went and spent the weekend with her because she was so homesick. I didn't take very many photos but I did like this one. She is getting used to it there, and I'm so happy for her.

February 20, 2009

Jeremy you're a goof! Even though he can't see with these on he is cute, and I'm pretty sure he knows it :)

Driving down the road, shot of the rear-view-mirror.

A Boy and a Bubble

This was taken last summer, and I've entered it in a contest. So....keeping fingers crossed!

February 18, 2009

Old barn and one cow. Wow.

February 17, 2009

This school is amazing! I'm so happy she is there. I'm gonna do a mini photo-journal of the day we moved her down there, but not today...I'm tired. But I'm caught up here!! Yay!

February 16, 2009

"I'm packing myself now....is this the box you want me in??" Poor Ambrosia...it's gonna be hard for her to get used to Kate being gone, and the other way around.

February 15, 2009

Just a little break from packing so I could get a couple of shots.....she was so stressed out about getting everything done that I can't believe she stopped and smiled for me. But....she's my hero.

February 14, 2009

Happy Valentine's Day! We celebrated Amber's birthday....she's 22. Naturally Cayden handled the blowing out of the candles for her...what are daughters for!

February 13, 2009

Cheyanne is a fool when she's out playing in the snow. I have a whole series of photos of her in the strangest poses, maybe I'll put them all together in a storyboard sequence and put them here. Some of them are hilarious!

February 12, 2009

I'm envious of anyone who has taken beautiful photos of birds. They are hard little critters to capture on film!! I chased this guy for a while, glad I had my zoom lens on!

February 11, 2009

Ambrosia, just sitting in the window looking innocent....she is far from that! She was actually sitting by the window and trying to figure out how to get ahold of the little birds that live in the awning.

February 10, 2009

Here is the view I have of Matthew a lot of the time....playing World of Warcraft. Actually I have this same view of him, Jeremy, Kate and John....since they are all WOWheads. And Sue too, although I don't actually see her all the time. Oh well, keeps them all off the streets.

February 9, 2009

Here's Gramma....and Cheyanne...who is so spoiled because of Gramma...

February 8, 2009

99% perfect and 101.5 degrees! Poor kid, he was sick!

February 7, 2009

Homemade cookies today!

February 6, 2009

Today Annie, the orphan chinchilla found wandering around the basement, is a month old. She isn't very big, and Jeremy still loves her and spends quite a bit of time playing with her. I'm glad she made it :)

February 5, 2009

Cayden loves to brush her teeth! She sleeps over here with Gramma and Grampa whenever she possibly can, and we love it!

Randomness that I don't want to miss

I guess I'll have to throw one of these posts in every now and then for photos that I don't want left out completely. I don't know, I'm making up the rules as I go along here, in my state of feverishness, lol.

February 4, 2009

Went to the doctor today, I've got bronchitis, and have been quite hoarse for the last two weeks. Doctor told me to rest my voice completely, I imagine I've damaged my vocal cords....just can't shut up. Took photo of the tree outside the doctor's office, these trees were quite damaged a couple of years ago in the winter.

February 3, 2009

Here's the pool, lol! Guess there's gonna be a lot more winter no matter what the rodents say.


Katelyn and Cayden, sitting on the couch, I just wonder what they were talking about!

February 2, 2009

Jeremy is just plain goofy, goofy and silly! He spends a lot of time playing with the dog, the cats, he is pure 13-year old boy energy!

Also I have a photo of Kate's teapot today, I had to include this one in my randomness.

February 1, 2009

Yay! I'm on my second month! So...here's to another month!

Okay...so this month I want to make sure I focus more on photos of my kids, although sometimes that's hard. Kate is a goofball....here she has carrots in her mouth and thinks she's real funny



Matthew will not, absolutely not, smile for me for a photo, that's if I can get him to let me take it at all. He gave Cheyanne a bath today because she smelled really bad! Thanks Matt!

January 31, 2009

Well, one month down, and I've managed to keep up! This is a fun project, but I fear that I will soon be out of hard drive space....gonna have to start weeding out some of these photos, I have a lot of blurry ones, and ones that I should just delete. Putting that on the to-do-list, haha. Anyway, here's my photo for today, it's Jeremy and Cinders....in bed watching cartoons. This cat just loves my boys, she gets crazy if she can't get in there to hang out with them.

January 30 2009

Jeremy's Stewie slippers...for any of you who have never watched Family Guy...well this baby is one of the most foul-mouthed things ever to come along. And the show....well it has educated my kids in a way that maybe they didn't need to be educated. But I have to admit it's hilarious. So Jeremy got the slippers and he's very happy....he sleeps with them.

January 29, 2009

A very sad day here in Boston....the Boston Hotel burned down. Well actually it's still standing, because it is a brick building...but it's gutted and they've got it boarded up. It was quite a fire. This is the second building that was on the site. It burned once in the early 1900's and they rebuilt...and it's been there since then. It was a landmark, and everybody from miles and miles around would come here for clams...they had clams cheap on Monday's, and wings. And this is where you could get filet mignon to die for! So...RIP for now Boston Hotel.

January 28, 2009

New profile pic for me. I haven't updated my photos since I cut my hair, which needs to be cut again. But it doesn't matter really because any photo of me has a distracting black contraption in the middle of my face anyway, lol.

January 27, 2009

Here is my cute little dog...actually she's as wide as she is tall lately! Her gramma feeds her way too much junk, yikes she's spoiled! But at least she sits very pretty before getting treats that she shouldn't be having!

January 26, 2009

We made homemade pizzas for dinner, yum! We get all kinds of different toppings. The kids made individual pizzas, I'm pretty sure Barb and Cheyanne shared one, but we were all happy and full!

January 25, 2009

I was outside yesterday to snap a few shots, and there is nothing to take photos of here at this time of year...so I ended up with this! And since my main focus for this project is to learn how to use my camera in Manual mode, this works!

January 24, 2009

Just another random shot of a candle....although I think this one is the best one I've done so far. And gotta love Tink's silhouette!

January 23, 2009

This is my first photo ever shot in RAW mode. And after fooling around with the image just a little I can see why people love it!

January 22, 2009

Well I decided to add another photo from Jan. 22 because Cayden took that one, and I didn't want this shot left out of my book. It's just the side of the house and the icicles, nothing exciting, but here it is :)



Self-portrait....actually Cayden took this picture, and I like it better than the ones I took of myself, lol. We were having fun taking pictures of each other.

January 21, 2009

Keeping on schedule here....today I'm actually posting today's photo TODAY! Wow, I'm liking this project! I do spend a lot of time that I don't have looking at everybody's photos, I just love looking at photos! So...today's photo is totally random, just the kitchen table and window looking out onto the porch and into the yard. I just liked it, I don't know why.

January 20, 2009

Jackson the lap dog....uhh I don't think so.

January 19, 2009

I got this pillow for the couch, well Cheyanne decided it's hers. Oh well, win some and lose some :)

January 18, 2009

Jeremy is taking care of this baby chinchilla. She was found wandering around in the basement, apparently she escaped from the cage shortly after she was born. We figured out which one was her mother and put her back, but she doesn't seem to be doing as well as we would like, so Jeremy is feeding her with a bottle. He really loves this baby :)
