Catching up on February, plus WHALE BABY.
I’m currently uploading a ton of photos, first to an album of random things from February that I never got around to uploading. The last month has been hectic, between finishing the unpacking process, J coming home from deployment, and then heading out to explore southern California (and Arizona!) together. J’s mom visited in mid-February […]

Container Gardens, renewed
This weekend I wanted to get outside and do something, and I also wanted to be productive, so I decided to pull out all of the empty pots that used to be my container garden and redo them. The flowers died over the summer and fall because we had an unusually hot and dry season. […]

Finding Art in the Everyday: week 15 of 2012 in pictures
This week has been filled with art in surprising places. This first picture from Monday was hanging in a “gallery” at one of the local frozen yogurt shops, where about 25 drawings by 4 and 5 year old kids were featured. This one was far and away the best, as it depicts an alien family […]

Egg-stravaganza gets a little Geeky…
So, today I decided I wanted an art project and being that it’s Easter weekend, I decided to color some eggs. After a quick search online, I found some really fun egg ideas, including egg geodes (where you wash out the shells and make multicolored salt or sugar crystals inside of them), but my favorite […]

Another North Shore Weekend
Today has been a productive day, which is good as I was at the north shore again all weekend. Granted, it was for a youth retreat which is also productive (in another way), but today I needed to get the car inspected and the oil changed, get the form from the Navy that says we’re […]

Doodle kitties
Today has been a long day and I can’t think of anything interesting to write, except that of everything on my “to do” list, the only thing I accomplished from beginning to end was pulling some cash out of the ATM. Seriously, it was that bad. I’m going to have to try again to do […]

Photos uploaded for March
This is mostly a placeholder to let you know I uploaded photos to the photo blog from the past couple of weeks. I’ll write about this weekend later today when I have time, but for now you can see the pictures (with captions)!

Marching on
It feels as if this year is going by so quickly. Already we’re a week into March and I’m making summer plans and doing my spring cleaning. Last week J and I bought a new camera, a nice shiny Nikon, and I’ve been practicing with it ever since. What this means is that I now […]

Kaneohe Bay Air Show
Oooh, two entries in one day! Amazing! Haha. This is mostly to let you know there are photos from Saturday when we went to the Kaneohe Bay Air Show. We had a great time looking at the static displays and seeing the flight demonstrations, including a helicopter that flies upside-down (though I didn’t get photos […]

“Lost” Locations are Lost on Me
This weekend I went up to the North Shore for a couple of days for a retreat. The retreat was good, and I wish I’d taken my camera for some photos of our late-night bonfires with s’mores, but I noticed something as I heard people talking. The retreat was at Camp Erdman, a YMCA camp […]
