A picture of me and my friend Julie at the mini album class we took Thursday night. also a shot of my new hair cut. The cut reminds be of the 80's rocker Joan Jett. I would post pictures of the album but it's not done yet. I haven't decided what pictures to use. The album will come together quickly once I pick out pictures.
Julie and I don't hang out nearly enough and we always have fun when we do. We have another class next Saturday that will have us making V- day cards.

Last night Rob and I took the kids to see Playhouse Disney Live. Wyatt and Kelly both agreed that it was AWESOME!! They featured Little Einsteins, My friends Tigger and Pooh, Handy Manny, and Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. Rob gave me crap because I could sing all songs to all the shows. I think I was just as excited as the kids when it started. We let Wyatt get an official Manny construction hat and Kelly got an Einsteins light-up wand. We had really good seats, on the floor, section 1, row 3. Next time I will go to section 2 because it is right in the middle. The people asked for no flash photography, so I bumped things up and I think I got some great shots. I started really wishing for a slightly longer and faster lens, like the 24-70, 2.8. we were closebut I couldn't get the lens close enough. this shot was taken towards the end when everyone was on stage. The kids did fantastic and again we all had a great time.
This is my weekly challenge for 2 Peas. This weeks theme is technology.
I was trying to stray from what lots others were doing when they did laptops, ipods, cell phones, yada, yada.
I have a hand wisk, a hand crank wisk, small beaters and my big mixer. I like it and thats all that matters anyway right?

Chelsea is on her way to saying her first word but will it be Dada or Mama?? Both Rob and I are coaching her to say one or the other. I know that the odds of her saying Dada are bigger but dang it can't one kid say Mama first? I'm the one that got cut open to bring them forth, give me this at least.
Poor Chelsea has been so miserable with this cold. I think last night was the best she slept and Rob was fantastic and got up with her at 6 this morning and let me sleep until almost 8am.(that is REAL late for me)
So far today I have done lots but not much that really shows. Like feed the baby, take shower, upload photos, arrange 365 photos in folder, covert RAW images, upload photo to the challenge, feed baby again, change baby, blog, play with baby, etc.,etc.
I need to go, it's hard to type one handed and Chelsea stinks again. hmmmm.......

WOW, I'm so glad that the kids had a great time, but you failed to mention how Chelsea did. The picture looks great of the cast on stage...please give yourself a break.
The picture of you and Julie is really nice, Julie looks good, I keep thinking back to what she looked like several years ago and I am just amazed. And you daughter always look good, and I do like your new hairstyle...the 80's are back!!!!!!!!!!!
The mixer idea is really pretty cool. I think of how far we have come and how things have changed, even in the last ten years, absolutely amazing. I wonder if this is how people felt when cars,phones and electricity were discovered. It's only been a hundred years since that all came about...you've come a long way baby!!!!!

Have a wnderful weekend

I like that picture too!!

I love your mixer..my mixmaster was purchased for me when I was pregnant with Trevor....he is now 20..so I am hoping it burns out soon so I can justify buying a new one. Everytime I see one on QVC I am soooo tempted!!
