I found another sign! I like finding signs on the road like these. I've never seen this one before though!

Another DPS challenge: windows. As I was thinking about what to take a picture of with windows, our poor cat Oscar solved the problem. Since we just moved, we don't want him to get lost, so he's been inside for the last week. Not only that, but it was rainy. He's starting to get cabin fever!

I went to go make french toast this morning for breakfast and noticed two of the eggs in the carton were cracked. When I went to pull them out I realized they were not only cracked, but frozen! Needless to say, we turned the refrigerator temperature down and I had a lot of fun trying to crack the suckers!

We just moved and our new place has a lemon tree in the backyard! This poor ladybug though probably had the worst day of his life when he encountered me. I kept moving him so I could get a better picture. :)

One of my kids built this at school. I LOVE two year olds because they develop so much in such a short time. I love to watch their block building develop from only building towers to building this: a house! I was so proud!

This has been our life for the last few days...bleh! Getting coughed on by two year olds all day finally caught up!

I don't know why but this caught my eye!

Following the leader, the leader, the leader, we're following the leader where ever he may go!

Bubbles, bubbles, bubbles...MY bubbles! Our favorite drink, orange Fanta!

I still love pushing all of the buttons on the lid of soda!

Ain't nothing like lacing up your chucks to get ready for the day!

My mom made us these "guardian angels" for Christmas last year. It hangs in my room and I pass it every morning when I walk out of my room.

First day of school! Oh boy...here goes another semester.

January 17, 2011

This was left outside of our apartments by the kid next door all in shambles. The life of a child!

This weeks challenge on the Digital Photography Schools website was to take a photo of something "Brand New" for the new year. There were a couple of photos already on the website for the challenge, but I wanted to do something different. So I thought and thought and thought and then I came up with this... a brand new perspective for the brand new year!

I used to hate this game. Tried playing it once and was bored out of my mind (it's one of those financial games my dad likes). I decided to give it another try and I became addicted! Jr and I played about 6 times (and I beat him 5 out of those 6 ;) )

Footprint artwork we did at preschool today. After we were done, I got all sappy and realized how much I love this artwork, because each child that goes through my class leaves little prints in my life. :

One of the two lamps in our front room. It's too bad that there are only lights in the bathroom and kitchens in apartments!

Thought I might mess around with trying to capture a sunset.

This is the image I see while sitting at the table eating. It's always different, but always pretty. I wish I had taken a picture when the tree in front of the house had leaves. They were bright red and gorgeous!

I cheated and did two today because they went so well together! Inanimate faces!

A lot of handicap parking!

January 7, 2011

I don't know why, but I always love looking at these when I go for walks in Folsom. It's like a treasure hunt finding them!

Wanted to find a picture for today, so I went for a walk during my lunch break and found this on the side of Walgreens.

January 5, 2011

We made orange chicken from the Panda express bottle. The first time I tried this I didn't know how to make it, so I looked it up on line. I didn't have some of the ingredients, but it turned out good anyways. This time I had the rest of the ingredients and it was actually better without those ingredients.

I'm pretty sure our cat poses for pictures on a daily basis. The day before he had his paw tucked perfectly under his jaw.

January 2, 2011

We went to the park today, and he was so intent on the ball that Jr was holding. So precious!

Do you remember back when you could trade in these wrappers and get free candy?
