Photo of the Day 4/12/09 and a weekend recap

I did a little scavenging yesterday and got my hands on these old saris I already have a few ideas up my sleeve for some crafty fun! Do you have any suggestions? Our weekend was fairly low-key but we did manage to catch Fast Furious I'm not normally that into action movies but I loved this one! I also finished the second book in the Twilight series which I liked a lot better then the first one. Oh and what felt like endless amounts of laundry...Anyhow I hope all of you had a good Easter weekend and Happy Monday!

Today's picture of the day....the one thing about this frustrating day that makes me smile.

As Seen on TV

So I was very dissapointed last night that Gossip Girl wasn't new...not that I would have watched it because I was busy watching the President but that is what DVR is for!!
Anyhow as if I wasn't giddy enough about spending the day with the hubby wondering around NY last Saturday...Last weeks episode made it even better....Confused?? See for yourself!
See this bench in the park where Blair was serving her detention?

It looks kind of familiar!

My favorite part of those benches was seeing the quotes or the dedications...I loved this quote:

The husband liked this one:

Oh and check out that pretty bridge behind Serena...

Clearly this scene was filmed a while ago because it is now decorated with snow!

Well at least I know if I was part of the Gossip Girl world I would be one of the cool kids....

Or maybe Blair would take me down for having a red jacket too??

28/365

So this morning I not only woke up to a mountain of snow but also no power. The only good that has come of it all is the 12:00 PM opening at work. See snow and I can get along if it means I can stay inside and observe it from a distance! Here is what our yard looks like:

But even better then that is the photo of the day the other side of the yard. Remember when I told you there was no power this morning? Well apparently the power lines are in our yard because look:

Here's hoping for a full day off from work?? Maybe the snow and I can call a truce??

Photo of the Day 1-21-08

I have lots I want to blog about but no time to do it...So for now here is my Photo of the Day yesterday. I had to run to the courthouse on lunch and it brought back a flood of good memories from our own court wedding as well as my cousins. I also really liked the way the sun was playing into the picture like a little ray of hope! I hope you guys enjoy it and I'll hopefully be back later with some fun :)

P.S. What do you guys think of this project so far? Are you having fun following along or not so much?

Super Powers

Today is yet another fairly busy day at work....I am definitely wishing these capes I made for the boys had actual powers, because I wouldn't mind snagging it back if it meant I could be invisible for the day. Or you know fly off onto a beach for that matter anywhere there isn't snow would be good! This was my photo of the day for Saturday the 17th although I probably could have taken the same one on Sunday and again on Monday since they refused to take them off!

History

Today is a super busy day at work but I just wanted to post real quickly and say how proud I am to be apart of this historic moment. Here's to our new president, I can't wait to see his inaguaration speech tonight ( I love TiVo) and to see what else he has in store for the next 4 years. Yes We Can!

P.S. I am loving this feature in the N.Y. Times. It's awesome to see SO many people SO excited for this day. You better believe my project 365 picture today will be Obama related...

Project 365

Not sure if any of you have heard of this but it's basically where you take a picture everyday for the entire year. It can be a picture of anything representing that day to you. I have been meaning to get back into photography for fun and not only when there is an event and this seems like such a fun way to go back and look over your year come 2010! I know I'm already 12 days behind but that's not horrible since I have a pic from new years and one from the sis-in-laws birthday on Saturday so that just makes me 10 behind. It sounds kind of fun...what do you guys think? Should I go for it? Is anyone else interested in playing along with me?
