40/52: Neverending

I love weddings.  And, actually, so does my husband.  No joke. Last night, we attended the wedding of a dear friend of mine: Jeremy.  He sang at our wedding.  His wedding was beautiful. I snapped this lovely shot with my phone at the reception, which reminds me of the...

Pet Peeves and Tomatillo Salsa

To summarize my evening shopping trip, please read the list of items my cashier rang out tonight: mild salsa, two bags of tortilla chips, tomatillos, cilantro, one jalapeno, one small white onion, and liners–not the ones for garbage cans. I’ve never before...

I am Words

I made this: With this: On pinterest, I found this sweet tutorial tailored for CS4.  I used the tutorial, but had to adjust a little since I have Photoshop Elements and not CS4.  For instance, steps three and four required tools with which I was not familiar.  Instead...

Autumnal Emptiness

Here’s the thing: I like and hate fall. Like: Because I love the colors.  And the smells.  There’s something beautiful about driving down the highway and seeing the vibrant reds, yellows, and oranges.  And there’s something soothing about the smell...

39/50: Pets

Well, this week’s last week’s project 52 theme was tricky for me.  We have no pets.  Nor do our neighbors; we’re not allowed, per landlord rules.  However, we do have this darling cutie: Of course this cutie pie came with a Vicky’s purchase,...

38/52: Candy

Remember when you were little? Just a few years ago, right?  I was a sucker for the candy by the register–the impulse candy. (Pun intended.)  I caught this delicious, nostalgia-inducing shot the other day, as The Hunk and I were checking out after...

37/52: Yellow

Yesterday was a somber day.  As we remembered the most intense moments of modern American history, my brother-in-law began his 365-day call to duty.  As a physician’s assistant, he will serve on a medical unit, taking care of our troop’s medical needs. We...

36/52: Children

During the second half of Labor Day weekend, Seth and I visited his parents for the day.  I witnessed perhaps the coolest thing I’ve ever seen in my life.   You probably can’t tell what this is.  This is the emergence of a baby butterfly.  Can we call...

35/52: Laughter

For the first part of the Labor Day weekend, The Hunk and I visited Kentucky.  We had dinner with some dear friends of mine on Friday and then spent Saturday with my parents. My dad’s birthday was last week, too, so we took him and Mom out to lunch. We went to...

34/35: Map

I thought this would be the worst week ever to have “map” as a theme.  I’m back to school now.  Why couldn’t map have been the theme when I was going or planning a vacation?  Silly. Anyway, we ended up driving to Cincy this weekend, where Seth...
