365/024
A mild obsession with Chips & Salsa puts me at Chili's every so often

325/028

My 365 Project.... 365/001-016 (Long Post)

I'm playing catch up here...I promise that my other posts will NOT be this long!!! ;)


*365 /001
Receiver + buddy @ Hockey Game....look at the red eye. This is a good example of why I edit everything!



*365 /002
Getting ready for a new profile pic....not sure what I did because I look orange..


*365/003 -
Wanting a new paint color so I took a snapshot for the store



*365/004 & 365/005
Current obsession...COFFEE...wanting bokeh on 005 but did NOT achieve....UGHHH

*365/006
A house that we ran across this week that looked really pretty but maybe it was because everyone else has their lights down!


*365/007
I'm just documenting a couple of things around my house...like old photos of my boys ;)


*365/008 -
I loved this photo this week. Just shows you how much a little brother looks up to a big brother!


*365/009
A funny outake from my little photo shoot!




*365/10
Glasses that I make occasionally, I just shipped these out so I snapped a B/W of them.


*365/011
Not sure if this is bokeh but the sides of the photo and background were blurry, so I thought it might qualify!

*365/012
This is a vase that is at my sister in law's. I just love it and she has it always filled with fresh flowers!

 *365/013
 Outdoor Ice Skating. I think I got bokeh in the background??? Maybe?


*365/014 
Bowling..I just like the depth of field on this one.



*365/015
A snapshot I took of my friend and her husband while I updated her resume.

*365/016
This was the sunset over our house last night...RAW and unedited....PRETTY~



A new year and I just could not seem to decide if I really wanted to take the plunge on a 365 project but after mycousin thinks I should do this (yes, sometimes she IS the boss of me)
I have decided that I needed this to do this so that I can learn this year about my camera and stretch my self!!! So, I have joined TRACY and the 365 crew. And, I am playing catch up!  So.....

I am participating in the 2010 Mommytography 365 Project! For this year long project I will be posting 7 image a week on Sundays, to get me out shooting, using my camera and learning new things with it daily. Anyone interested in photography can join, no need to be a Mommytographer. We have teens to adults, male and female, as well as people from all over the world. Come join the fun!

I Need Your Help!





We are wanting to get Granite Countertops.
I have searched for a really long time and I have finally found the best company!
So, here are the final two choices, but hubs and I don't agree (are you surprised? I'm not)!
I won't tell you which one I like the best but I am giving you the opportunity to look at my kitchen
 (yes, I cleaned it for you..your welcome)
and make your best choice!
