Count your Blessings Tuesday #6

On a different note (sorry, had to vent)... today I am grateful for:

• the time I have with my family and friends... let me always cherish it
• my memories of Chuck... one of the most genuinely nice people I've ever met.
  
• grad classes that end early
• 1/4 birthday parties

Date Night!

Tonight's date night was nice :) We actually started at lunch time with lunch at Pei Wei and some shopping at Best Buy and JoAnn (fair trade). Later we went out early to UMBC to get our tickets and hang out at the bar there (gasp). Good thing we went early to get to the show... there was already a line so we waited an hour and half in the cold and rain but got good seats!

Go Retrievers!

We've got the fever...

Ok so here's proof that I actually drank. I know, it looks like fruit punch but it's actually white zinfandel. Further proof I can't freaking drink... I didn't get tipsy or anything but I turned RED, just burning red. It's like the alcohol goes straight to my blood stream! In any case, we had a good time and talked to the head of Alumni relations who has already seen T's blog! He saw his UMBC photo shoot... pretty cool. T is famous.

We played pool for a little bit...

Not bad for five years of not playing!

The TV ad in the Commons for what was coming up!

Waiting in the rain.... still freaking red....

Demetri!!! He was hilarious, as always.

Yay for date night!

Photo Shoot

Last year our friend W took pictures of us as a family... kinda hard to take family photos when you're the one behind the camera! The photos turned out GREAT! We went to the park in the fall and had lots of great fall colors for our pictures. This year, we're doing it again but we're going to the Harbor for our photos. Now, we have to decide what to wear! Check out some choices on this photographer's website. I like the first, second and fourth. What do you think?

Etsy Find Wednesdays #7

Today I was searching for "green living"... while this is not exactly what I was looking for, it certainly is GREEN and LIVING.

Awesomely Awesome:

This little terrarium is so cute and whimsical... caught my eye. I love anything miniature! This terrarium is $32.00... not sure I want to spend that much on it but I would if I had money to waste. Check out doodlebirdie's shop!

Awesomely Awful:

This "terrarium" creeps me OUT. I'm sure some can find some artistic elements to like but I would NOT want this in my house, especially for $65.00! Check out buffalosister's shop if interested.
