Day 161 OF 365


Here is my 4th 'A' word for our 
'A to Z' challenge!

'Athletic'
I feel that I am some what athletic,
although I would like to be more fit than I am.
I feel that if I can run 7 Marathons and compete in 
 2 crossfit competitions that would make me kinda athletic.
So here is a picture of me doing a few chin ups
after an awesome 5 mile RUN with the bro!!!

Day 157 of 365





This is a challenge from my mom

Ok Ladies,
I'm very excited about this, and before we get started I have a very inexpensive digital camera, (it's about 5 years old) so please look at my pictures for content and not clarity.  I hope to get a better camera when I grow up!!! :)
First you need to set up a blog, (I'm setting my up tonight) once that is completed send the link to the rest of us.  I'll send out 5 words a week for us to use, and we'll see how creative we all are. Use your imagination and think outside the box.  Once you have a picture you like, post it to your blog.  If you get stuck and can't think or find something that works, no worries, this is just for fun.    Once we all have our pictures posted we will use a voting scale of 1 to 5, 5 being the best.  Our week will start on Saturday and votes will be tallied Friday and posted for all to see. Of course the person with the most points will win, and be crowned "Photographer Extraordinaire"! 





So let's get started - this week's letter is
-A-  
and the words are:




alive
architecture
amazing
athletic

My first picture is Architecture
We went for a walk thru Oakland, and this is one of my favorite buildings.

Day 153 of 365

~PINK AND BLACK~

Ok, so Gina wanted a pink and black zebra room.
This is what I have done so far...
 We still need more pictures on walls, new bedding and hang the curtains.

And yes I did agree to let her
...paint her closet black, and take the doors off!

She has 2 rooms, so her clothes are in the other room!
And the reason why she has 2 rooms ~~  I don't know!
She just decided one day to move her big dresser and mirror over,
and now she has her own dressing room!  
Lil' Brat!!
That is the next room I will be painting.
...and the color is?????
