Umm yes, I tried that.
Starfish are not that tasty.
No, you do not eat the hard outer shell, just the mushy brown stuff inside.

Day 129 - Happy New Year!

3/9/2014

Sometimes things just work out in a weird way.
Yesterday I finished posting about our trip to the Philippines where we rang in 2014.
If you have been following me for a while you know that on New Year's Eve we ring in the New Year with a day of fondue.  This year since we were traveling we missed our tradition - however I promised the kids we would still do it once we returned.  I did not plan to coordinate the two blog post, but now that it happened this way it seemed fitting.  Last night we celebrated the New Year with fondue and friends!

And look....I still have our Christmas cards up.  I just can't bring myself to take them down.
Happy New Year!

    Project 365

    Am I insane?  Have I lost my mind?  After thinking long and hard about it (OK, really I only thought about it for about 12 hours) I just committed to doing a photo a day for a year - a 365 'they' call it.  This is going to be SUPER HARD for me. Not the photo part, but the editing part. I mean you guys KNOW how far behind I am.  A photo a day - that doesn't sound like much, but in reality, who are we kidding?  Anyway  I'm going to TRY to post each day, but there will be times I might be MIA for a couple of days, just bear with me and I will catch up.

    One of my goals throughout this 365 is to be able to shoot anything I want to in manual. The next is to have fun capturing this next crazy year of our life. In the next 365 you will see: at least 2 more countries, a HS graduation, an international move to most likely 2 different states, the heartbreak of a mom as she sends her first born off to college and so much more....

    Please make sure you cheer me on after all I am a "Words of Affirmation" girl. :o)
