Yucky Day Outside 003 - 365

The day was overcast and cold. Alison and Patrick both came to our room during the night, Patrick with bad dreams and Alison was not feeling well. When we got home from church Alison was running a fever. I decided to play a bit inside with the flashlight and vase and shutter speed today. I came up a with a few shots that caught my eye.

002 - 365

Day two. We are moving very slow these first two days of 2010. We wore PJ's most of the day. I finally decided I had to shower and get out. Craig and Ali got out for a drive with me. Patrick chose to stay home in his PJ's to play the Wii.

365 Kick Off

It is hard to start a 365 of pictures when you spend the day sleeping late and trying to keep the kids calm. I did get the camera out after 5 pm when we started moving. The great news is after sleeping late, we had a great family day. We stayed in PJ's all day long and I only got out to get Sore Throat/Cough Medicine for Craig.

The picture I like most today is of the motion detector lights at the back of the house. Almost full moon like.

Alison dancing and grooving with her iPod was a close choice too.

Gearing myself up again....

The new year is around the corner. I am still enjoying the camera, and taking tons of pictures. Lots of them end up on the Bell Palace Blog. Tons end up on Flickr. Many make it out to friends through email. I have been visiting groups that are making plans for a 365 project. I started last year, but burnt out on it quickly. Sometimes kids and housework take hold and I do not find that time for me. I have decided to give it a go again. I am going to start on January 1st, because it seems like a good spring board. I may just give it a running start though and try to build up some steam.

Here it goes:

Today we went to see Alvin and the Chipmunks in McKinney. I went to buy the tickets this morning, after getting them we drove around Downtown McKinney. I loved the old houses and Churches. Here are the details of one of the house roofs. Pretty ornate.

Because I could not choose just one, this is a stained glass window on a Methodist Church just off of the town Square. I bet it is just gorgeous from the inside.

Slipping on the blogging, but I am still taking pictures.
