A Blanket of Snow

This is a picture from the other day. I did some tweaking to it. Maybe I need to find out more about this Photo Shop thing I hear about so often.....can you do really fun stuff with your pictures in that program???

Beautiful photo! Kind of looks like my back yard.

Yes, you can do very fun stuff to your photos in Photoshop, but there are other less pricey programs that can do fun stuff too. It is definitely worth checking around before you dish out the money for Photoshop. Unless you know what you are doing, Photoshop Elements is probably a better place to begin. Not that I'm an expert though because I use Photoshop and barely scrape the surface of the possibilities that exist there. For basic editing I still use Microsoft Office Picture Manager.

Pretty picture. Almost makes me wish the snow. Almost.

I don't have time for any fancy photo stuff. Maybe someday. It is pretty though. We have some cool ones from the ice storm of '02.

(I feel like such a grown-up referring to major weather events like that.)

Oh the ice storm. That was fun. We were living in this house and because it is an old neighborhood we were without electricity and gas for two weeks. We also had a huge tree branch come through the window in Emma's room. Fum times that was.

Sometimes There Are No Words

Last night I met a new friend. Let me preface this by saying I have made exactly ONE new friend in the last ten years. This makes number two. My Babycenter and Blogging friend Amanda , was having a conference in KC. We made plans to meet up. I felt a bit odd. Here I was making plans to meet someone I only knew from the Net. But Mark thought it was perfectly great and even said for me to stay out as long as I wanted. He said it was not as if I was meeting up with someone I saw often. Stay out and talk and have fun. So I did. I made plans to meet with Amanda. I knew we had a lot in common. Both from the board and from reading her blog. I knew she was someone who if she lived closer to me we could hang out. But I was a bit apprehensive. Here was someone who only knew me through the computer. So many what if's , right? Mark was actually the one who said I should meet with her, if only for a little while. So, I picked Amanda up at her hotel and off we went to Fooleries. Great place to ...

Why Choose It?

Judy posted a comment about being jealous at two weekends away from the kids. About how she figured it would be a long time before she got that chance. I have to admit, I thought better her than me to have the new baby. After our two weekends away and Mark joking that it was his ploy to convince me to not have anymore, I have to say.....I think it worked. After thinking about it and being able to get away so easily because the kids are bigger, I could not help but think, why go back and do it all again? If you had a choice between going out of town for the weekend or being stuck, tied down to a newborn who was feeding from your breasts every two hours and waking every three ,which would you choose? To which one might say why ever have kids at all.....fine. I have TWO. I have done it TWICE. Not only that, but for anyone who cares about it, I have one of each. One is almost seven, the other almost three. Granted Davis is not potty trained yet, but he does change his own diaper sometimes...
