Guilty Pleasures - Wednesday

Buffalo chicken dip. Num.num.num.

Guilty Pleasures - Tuesday

GBOGH. (J*GI)

Guilty Pleasures - Monday

My Keurig.

Personal Treasures - Sunday

Home Sweet Home.

Personal Treasures - Saturday

For each of my babies, I made a cross-stitched blanket. They sleep with their "Bunny Blankets," and they've become personal treasures, both to me and to them. I even saved the pattern booklet, in the vain hope that maybe one day there will be grandkids who need their own Bunny Blankets. :-)

Personal Treasure - Friday

Time.

Each day is a gift, not a right. And all too often I forget to treasure it like I should, instead complaining that it passes too fast or there isn't enough of it.

Personal Treasures - Thursday

A painting of the chapel where we were married in Beaver Creek, Colorado. My mom gave this to us as an anniversary gift for our 5th anniversary.

Personal Treasures - Wednesday

On my bookshelf, a picture of my Grandpa and Grandma. Irish Catholic to the bone, they were married for 54 years, through war, coal mines, steel mills, and 6 sons. They were the epitome of the Greatest Generation. They will always be my most influential role models. Next to their picture is our Irish Wedding Bell - traditional has it that one spouse rings the bell after a fight, as a signal you are ready to kiss and make-up.

Personal Treasures - Tuesday

My wedding ring: a reflection of a wonderful man.

Precious Treasures - Monday

My three most precious treasures.

White

Annie, the vicious Corgi. Here she is assuming her traditional attack position.

Pink

Thank you, Angie, for giving me some tips on how to best capture this shot of the cherry tree blossoming in our backyard. (I cheated and took it several days ago when the sky was a pretty blue.)

Black

The color may be black, but the girl is the light of my life.

Yellow

Meet Mike. Mike likes to listen to stories. Mike is 4 years old, enjoys buttoning, zipping, and parachuting off the swingset. His favorite color is yellow.

Green

He's sorta like the Mona Lisa. He's watching you no matter where you are in the room.

Blueberries

Yes, as a matter of fact, I am trying to be as unoriginal as possible.

Red

She ain't sexy, but I've had her since college, she's red, and she's on my desk today, along with the Manual of Patent Examining Procedure (which unfortunately is not red). Can I get WOOTWOOT!?

A rousing game of peek-a-boo

Inspiration

Because of this little beauty, I've met an amazing group of friends who have inspired me (possessed me?) to try a 365 photography project. Here goes nothing...!
