Simply because....

...these photos were taken and must be blogged.
It is an unwritten rule, you know.
I have no idea what I am gonna write.
I am just going to upload photos and see what comes to mind.
You have been warned.
Apparently this is one take on ringing in the New Year.
Hello, 2012.  Let's arm wrestle, shall we?

Yum.  Just yum.

Instagram makes everything look so artsy + beautiful.


Am I right?



I recently learned that Christmas isn't over on the 26th in the Catholic Tradition.
In the spirit of that, I baked cookies yesterday.
Plus, I wanted to start eating clean today ;-)

And yes, occasionally I still take photos with the DSLR.
Here are some recent shots...
Awwww!  Is she or is she not the most adorable dog ever?
I may be a bit biased.

My new coffee cup.  Cute cups make coffee more tasty.
Scientifically proven fact.

Our Christmas morning photo.  Pretty easy to pick out my feet, huh?

There.  You're all caught up.
Aren't you relieved?
I hope 2012 is treating you well so far.

Great pictures! I LOVE your firepit. Love the Christmas morning picture. Love the tree against the blue sky. Love 'em all!

Mary said...

what great pictures! No Way would I take a picture of our feet...CH's feet have been dubbed "Fred Flinstone Feet".

Denise said...

I'm thinking that pyjama/feet photo would be the best Christmas card photo...ever!

Iowa Sunshine said...

good to hear from you!! love your captures. i would love to have instagram .... you are right it gives the pic a certain flair! take care.

I love feet pictures This one is so cute.

Theresa said...

I love the Christmas morning photo!

I wanted to start eating clean today, too. But it was Jason's last day off after having been off for 11 days and we went out to dinner...so much for that...there is always tomorrow.

I don't take my tree down until the Epiphany. I think that is a Catholic thing.

btw, I started a new blog. I had changed my url in the fall and had a lot of issues, Blogger could not fix it and told me to Export posts and Import them to a new url...but I have to start all over with followers .

Many blessings for a fantastic 2012 for you and your family!

Megan said...

Happy new year to You!

So much to say here! I want Instagram! agh. One day I will get it, hopefully. Love the oranges photo. Your new coffee cup is gorgeous, and I am with you 100% about cute cups make coffee taste so much better. I love the one of your pup and the pretty Christmas lights. The cookie picture is great! I really adore that last photo, that would be cute framed and brought out each year for Christmas! Where did you get your sign in the first picture? Love this post!

Always so much fun visiting here! I proclaim that Janie Fox and I will take a Squirrel Adventure to your land and drink out of cute cups and take Instagram pictures of our pj pants. So let it be written...so let it be done!

What is instagram? It definitely looks good! The feet pic and arm wrestling made me smile. Especially the arm wrestling. So totally like my brothers.
