There Once Was an Old Lady Who Lived in a Shoe

 Day 010.

Double Digit days! Wahoo! 

This is Desmond. He was purchased for my husband when he went to the hospital with a stomach virus several years ago. He is a green hedgehog and gets his name from Lost. What a silly hedgehog! 

Somebody Ring the Alarm, a Fire on the Roof

Day 009.

This is one of the views outside of our third floor apartment. Isn't it beautiful?! I would love to get a great picture to the right of the Church, but there are power lines all over it. I will somehow make it work. 

I was taking these pictures while my husband was cooking dinner and he told me to rush to the window. I look outside and there are police lights, ambulances, and fire engines lighting up the street. We took a drive trying to see what was going on, but the roads were blocked. I used my internet skills/investigative skills and found out it is a three alarm fire. After looking that up, it means the fire department sent out three separate alarms to help battle the fire. Oddly enough, it doesn't smell like fire. 

 A big thank you to my husband for taking these pictures while I drove. Aren't they cool? 

Rain, Rain Go Away Come Again Another Day [When its Warm Out]

Day 008.

Yay for blogging for a full week now! As you can see, Eastern Massachusetts was still rainy, but this time, the pictures were taken inside. It was harder than I thought it would be to get a picture of the water droplets on the window. Especially since I didn't want to seem like I was taking pictures of the cars barreling down the street. 

I took other pictures as well, but I decided I can't waste all my ideas in a week. I'll save the idea and hopefully get even better pictures when I try again.  

Here Comes The Rain Again

Day 007.

The top picture came out really well and exactly as I wanted it to feel. Personally, I love rain, especially warm rain. Without the leaves on the trees though, it is quite dreary. 

Now, to eat a grapefruit! 

You Came in With the Breeze, On Sunday Morning, You Sure Have Changed Since Yesterday

Day 006.

The weather outside was beautiful, but we spent most of our day inside. We went to a new church about 10 minutes away. It was really a good time and made me think quite a bit. It even had an electric guitar! That really surprised me. 

After church, we did laundry (see picture above) and visited family since we had a few things to drop off. Writing down what we did seems like a normal Sunday, but I felt very productive today. We still have a ton of dishes in the sink that need to be washed... tomorrow is another day!

My new ring modeled by my lovely husband. <3

And When you Smile, The Whole World Stops and Stares For Awhile

Day 005.

Today was an awesome day. I got to hang out for many, many joyous hours with one of my best friends and her daughter. Also, I got my birthday present from my husband. I shall take a picture and upload it tomorrow. Today I wanted to overload this blog with one of the cutest kids who has ever lived. She is my model. I have photographed her since she was born and she has always been this cute. However, I am just a little biased. :)

See? She was an excellent model. She even drew that picture! 

Her mother has been violently ill all week, but wanted some low-key company, so we went over and hung out for a while. I helped around the house as much as I could, including to help bathe her child. I love hanging out with this family even doing basic chores. We are pretty much always laughing. 

The two pictures below are my favorites from tonight. I love the lighting and even her concerned face. She was worried about my husband leaving and not saying good night to her. Adorable!

P.S - They did get to say goodnight to each other. No worries. 

I Scream, You Scream, We all Scream For Ice Cream!

Day 004.

Ice cream is, and always has been, my weakness. My first job was at an ice cream shop. I met my husband at said ice cream shop. Ice cream is always there for me and it is almost always completely delicious (not so much when you are shivering cold). Ice cream, here is my ode to you. I love you.
