Jan 30th,

HAPPY 43rd BIRTHDAY TO MY DEAR BROTHER DAVID!

Hello everyone!  Today I want to play a game with you all.  Here are a few macro pictures that you have to try to figure out what they are.  I remember doing this in my High School Biology class.  The pictures were much more difficult tho.  I want to thank my dear daughter Gina for helping me pick out some of the items to photograph.  This was a fun night.  

I have about 20 of them, but here are just a few of our favorites.

Day 29 of my 365 Blog

Jan 29th.

Went to Ortho this morning, They diagnosed me with bursitis in my outer left hip, and my IT band is inflamed.  Blah, blah, blah!  Always something!   I will not let this little injury bring me down,  Just need to take it easy for the next few days.

I wanted to say happy anniversary to my son and his girlfriend. 

~Happy 2nd Anniversary Nicole and DJ, hope you have a great night!~


Here are a few pictures of the dinner we had tonight.  Thank you Gina for helping me make dinner.

I love Garlic Expression.  Yummy on everything!





I love it on tomato, basil and mozzarella pasta!  









I also use it on Asparagus! 



 ....also add a little bit over the seasoned fish!


 Blood Orange for desert! 
They are so good this time of year!

Day 27 of my 365 blog

Jan 27th,

Brrrrr!  Another cold day for a run, but we did it and we had a great time.  Today was another 2-a-day for Marathon training.

Derek is back from his mini mancation,  so happy to have him back home.  I missed him being gone for those 2 days.  But they had a great time.

BTW,  DJ went with him also,  but I have yet to see him.  I don't think he had enough of the casino's,  because he is at the casino now.  Oh well, life as a 21 year old!  I just hope and pray that he behaves himself.  I really wish I had seen him for the 1 min he was home.  That DJ!!!

-Last night I had a wonderful photosession with a young man named Jeramie,  He is a senior at SV,  What a great kid, reminds me of Bruno Mars.  Well any way, I wanted to get a shot of him in the middle of the strip district, in the middle of the street.  The sun was in the perfect place, and I went ahead and took some shots.  I never looked at the pictures in my camera, because I was in a hurry trying to avoid the cars passing by.  I should have looked because I ended up getting a silhouette pictures instead of the shot I wanted.  Eeeek!  I am so mad at myself,  because this is the shot i wanted so badly.


Well it turns out, because of my lovely photoshop program that I just LOVE.  I fixed the picture, and I think he may just love this one!  Here is the before and after:


What do you think?

Jan 26th

Spent the day with my Gina,  while Daddy and DJ were in New York.  I did have another Photo session, this time it was for a high school senior.  After the session that evening, Gina, Nicole and I went out for a bite to eat, and we talked about our vacation we are going on.  I love girl time.

I also love newborn sessions.  I had a newborn session on Friday, and as I promised I would post some of the pictures from then.  Check out this not so little peanut.  10lb baby boy, only 2 weeks old.

Day 24 of my 365 blog

Jan 24th,

Not much going on today!  Had a good run with the Bro this am,  and here is what I did!


We were the only ones at the boat house,
I wonder why!

It wasn't that cold,  we were actually having a little heat wave this morning!



I think it we would have had a faster run if the park was plowed!

We did ok,  but we can definitely do better



WOW!  
100 days to go!
~Getting so excited~

Ran a 10k TT and did pretty well!!!!

Jump-roped for 10 minutes straight

Lets get this started!!!
