Fix-It Friday: #17 Pretty In Pink
Original – “Pretty In Pink” Some slight improvements. Didn’t want to do anything drastic because the picture composition is so nice.
Court of Honor – June 2009
Asleep at the Legos
Isn’t this so cute!?!? Alex has been so into Legos lately. He had them strewn from wall to wall in the living room. He pulled them back out the other night, after having to clean them up last weekend. He was wise to keep them in the bucket. Alex started trying to recreate a boat… Read More »
13 Things: 2006 (TT #18)
Thirteen things… I’ve been doing some “tidying” up of my blogosphere and realized that all my banners for Thursday 13 were because the original website is gone. So I went and fixed that. Then I found a link to a new Thursday 13 site and decided I might try to pick back up on this.… Read More »
Adventures at the Doctor’s Office!
Today I took Drew to the dr. for a check up for boy scout camp that he’ll be attending in a couple weeks. We saw a new doctor, Dr. M@tt C@rter, who was super nice. Drew checked out great, but to my surprise he had to get 2 shots. No big deal or so we… Read More »
Fix-It Friday: #16 Sweet Grin
Original – “Sweet Grin” Here’s my “fixed” version. Using CS4, I played with curves to help with the lighting issue. Then I unmasked the eyes and used the dodge tool to bring out the color. I then used an action called Glam Bur v.1 to help soften the picture. I cloned out some of the… Read More »
Congrats to Maria!
Picture courtesy of Savannah Now Saturday my sis-in-law, Maria, graduated from SCAD Atlanta. It was a great commencement ceremony. Very inspiring! They had display screens and while we were waiting for the ceremony to start they displayed examples of work from a select few graduates. I’m a pretty artsy person and as they flipped through… Read More »

This is NOT what I was hoping to see…
I went into the Laundry room yesterday to get something and this is NOT what I was hoping to see! I nearly screamed out loud it was so big. Huge! Monsterous! Gigantic! Nasty! Soon after that I’m hoping he died from being drowned by bug spray. After some research, I found this: So it looks… Read More »
Atlanta Weekend with the Family
I haven’t had a chance to write about last weekend. We headed up to Atlanta for the weekend. We stayed at The Westin Peachtree Plaza, which was lovely. The views from our room were awesome! We stayed really busy and got tons of walking in. Drew enjoyed playing in the Olympic rings of water at… Read More »
Brilliance…
Uh! Why don’t I learn my lesson! You can’t take paint that’s been sitting for a couple of years and expect it to actually match when you’re trying to make touch ups. I had this problem at the old house. Today I had the brilliant idea to find the old paint and do some “touch-ups.”… Read More »

Sh-tuff….
My Mom says I haven’t been writing lately, which is true. I’ve been pretty quiet. I thought I’d write and make my Mom happy. 🙂 Everybody say, “Hi, Mom!” and root her on to comment on here. You can do it!! Anyway, Drew has been quite busy the last couple weeks. This week he’s going… Read More »
Chicken Cordon Bleu
I used to love getting the chicken cordon bleu in the frozen section until I realized how much sodium they had. Really overall, just super unhealthy. I love being able to recreate something that I love making it the way I want to and that gives you the liberty of making it healthier. Chicken Cordon… Read More »
Today
I think I’ve ran off my fan club. Haha! I know I haven’t been posting on a regular basis but many of you know things for me haven’t been great. The new house is wonderful and I have great neighbors. In fact, the boys played with the 2 boys next door and we ate dinner… Read More »
New House Ramblings
I decided to actually write and let you know what I’ve been up to lately. I’ve been busy trying to unpack still and get stuff organized and put in it’s place. I’ve hardly been able to touch the playroom, which is still piled high in boxes. We’ve purchased a piece of contemporary furniture for the… Read More »
