A week in pictures

It's been a little over a week since I last posted and I'm going to share the photos that I took over the week.

We had our photo shoot last Saturday!  Chris got tired and I passed the time by taking photos in between sessions.

I found a lovely lady in Taiwan to send me one of the Asia exclusive Pandora beads.  This beauty is on it's way to me as we speak (type) !!!!

I submitted this photo for last week's photo class, which focused on color contrast and balance.  I was chosen as one of the class standouts for it!!! (see badge to the right)

There was kitty love as always!

We went for a night bike ride later in the week and had to bundle up :)

Yesterday Stacey and I visited the Pandora store while Chris got tattooed.  I got a few goodies and the Pandora store showed me some love with a $20 gift certificate just for commenting on their facebook!

Today we had PBB rehearsal and I took my photo for my class.  This week's lesson was about background and depth.

I hope you enjoyed the pictures!  I've been continuing my running.  I just don't have any pics of that haha.  It's hard to take a picture when you feel like you're about to pass out haha.  It's getting better though.  I ran this morning for a little over a mile comfortably.  On Tuesday I'm going to up my distance to 2 miles.  I'll keep you updated on how that goes.  

New hair and a purple-nosed kitty

It's been a slow day at work for the most part.  We had some bad thunderstorms around lunch time, which set off the tornado sirens.  This town goes into panic mode when those go off.  It's understandable though, that F5 that rolled through in April was a bitch!  So I guess everyone has hunkered down and is getting ready for Christmas.

So I got my hair cut and dyed yesterday.  I went for the usual cut and dark purple (that looks black) and purple highlights.  I'm hoping the dark purple will lighten some but if it doesn't Loran (my wonderful hair lady) will just go a shade lighter next time.  It's hard to get a good pic of purple hair.  It seems blue in some photos.  I've got some for ya though.  I know how you people love pictures.

Well what do you think?  Sorry for the lack of makeup... maybe tomorrow hehe.  So now for the purple -nosed kitty.  That would be Malakai.  He sleeps on my head at night and likes to rub his face in my hair and neck.  Did I mention he's spoiled rotten?  Well this morning Chris brings to my attention his new dye job.  I guess he got a little too excited with the new hair.

Check out that awesome nose fade hahaha.  Sorry for the eye booger.  I would have got it for him if I had seen it before I took the picture.  He seemed to not be bothered by it so I guess it will wear off.

We are taking Zach to ATL tomorrow to meet up with his mom.  That way he can spend Christmas and all that fun stuff with them.  We'll probably stop by Skinworx on our way back and see Jen and James.  

The family is coming on Saturday and I'm excited about everyone getting their presents!  

Well that's all I got for now ... over and out :)

Turtles, cameras, and....stuff

I really suck at this title thing. Oh well...We saw a huge turtle on the way to work yesterday. Chris noticed it on the side of the road because it was sticking its head up so far. So we pulled over, checked him out and took a picture.

He's not the most attractive turtle I've ever seen but I'm sure he could have taken my finger off.

That would have been a much better picture if I would have had the toy we got later that day. We went to Best Buy shortly after the turtle sighting and bought this:

That's a Nikon D3000 and it's amazing! Chris bought it so he could take better pictures of the tattoos he does. I might steal it every once in awhile to take some fun pictures. I read the whole manual but I'm still not quite sure how to use all of the buttons. I'm sure it's one of those things were you just have to play with it to figure it out. As soon as I take some worth looking at I'll share them on here.

I checked out the tracking on our P90x package and it's going to be here today instead of Saturday. I don't think we are going to start it until Monday though. We will have more time now to watch the starter video and get the stuff we need for the diet.

We are going to Robby's mom's house tomorrow night and staying until Saturday evening. I think it's going to be really fun. She's a southern lady who likes to entertain. So I'm sure there will be lots of wonderful food and wine by the pool!

Well that's all I got for today ;)
