Day 62 thru 67

Day 67 {Lunch}

 Homemade salsa, zucchini and black bean tacos.   MMMMM!

**************** 
Day 66 {New Do}

 Kate got her hair cut on Saturday!  Silly me didn't bring my camera so this is the day after shot. She is loving her new bangs and layered cut.

Day 65 {Mexican food}

 Saturday night dinner out.

Day 64 {Silly Teens}

 I actually didn't take this shot (mine were boring), but it is my Nikon 550S point and shot camera so I can use it......right?  I love how much fun the girls were having taking pictures of themselves at the JV Soccer Banquet.  I thought this was such a fun creative pose.

Day 63 {Tile}

I was out looking at tiles and granite samples for our new kitchen.  I am always drawn to glass mosaic tiles.  We might be using them in our new back splash.   I really do wish there weren't so many choices though.  It is over whelming!!!

 Day 62 {Texture}

Shadow House Creations (link on side bar) has a tutorial up on how he creates his awesome textures.  After reading it I ran around taking pictures so that I can make some of my own textures (this is a shot of that threshold on our back patio door.....I didn't realize it was so jacked up).

I'll let you know if I come up with anything worth sharing!

Day 35 {Old school}

I was cleaning out some drawers in Reid's closet and I found several old viewmaster slides (or are the cartridges?).  Even though we not longer have the actually viewmaster thing-a-ma-jiggy, I can't bring myself to get rid of them.

For something so low tech and old school, they still hold a special place in my heart.

Day 187 {Toys from long ago}

If you grew up in the 70's you probably remember these cool magic twisty worms. Still as fun as it was back then.

Day 126 {Helicopter}

If you have been following my 365 blog you know by now that I live on top of a canyon.  

Several houses down the street from me the electrical wires branch off from our street and run down into the canyon, stretch across the freeway and reach into the next neighborhood.  Since the electrical poles and wires are set on steep hillside full of brush the Gas and Electric company must check them out via Helicopter.

The poles in the canyon are set below my house so when the helicopter starts flying towards the cul-de-sac of the canyon they are literally flying at the same level that my house sits.  

The first time I saw them doing this it almost gave me a heart attack!  Nothing like looking out your back door and literally being eye to eye with a helicopter pilot.
