Egg Hunt

On Palm Sunday, my parents' church had an Easter Egg hunt. Can you find an egg?


The little kids were very excited.


They had fun picking up all the eggs.


The bigger kids were a bit less excited, but still hunted in between shivering from the cold weather.

Dryer Sheet

I am not sure why, but Lollie loves to lay on top of dryer sheets. Can anyone explain that?

Snowman Down

Good job tackling that snowman. One less threat around the house to worry about.

Rope Swing

Does this look fun?


Maybe it looks more exciting like this?


I don't like heights, so you wouldn't catch me swinging.


But I had fun taking photos while I watched.

Offerings of Incense

The small flames and smoldering incense always make me a little sad.


It can seem so innocent.


But it is really a empty offering.

Earring Idea

I intended to make these into some cute Halloween earrings, but I still haven't figured out how.

Kitty Prison

Some days, the cats meow one too many times, then it is time for kitty prison.

A Gift for Me

I celebrated getting a job by buying myself a present. I have wanted a new camera for about 2 years now. It wasn't a need, but it was a definite want.


The camera was part of a kit that included 2 lenses.


Opening the box was an exciting experience.


All the fun things inside.


The camera and first lens. This is the one that I use most often.


The second lens. It even came with a little bag.

Life in the Water

Floating around with nothing to do.


It's the turtle version of sleeping.


I'm watching you.

Another Earring Edition

I got the Chinese beads in DC at the Terra Cotta Warrior exhibit.


Pink flowers. You can see that I clipped the beads at the bottom. Not completely clean, but not as noticeable when worn.


I don't know what to call these yellow beads.


Butterflies.
