365 Photos - Week 20

Kyle with his toes in sand.

Half moon bay building.

Finally we made it to our first San Jose Giants game...   you know what that means...  BBQ & Beer Batters and Baseball Bingo!!!!

Just about 100 out...   this was after it started cooling down.   

Fresh coconut ice cream.   While coming home from half moon bay we stopped at the fruit stand and got a whole coconut....   after slamming it on the front patio to open we had to figure out what to make with it.   So we made fresh coconut ice cream, which Kyle says is the best ice cream he's ever had.    


Sunflower waiting to be planted in the patio.

365 Photos - Week 19

I'm behind!! Picture taking has been pretty much limited to weekends, particularly the last couple weeks, work has just been too busy. I keep hoping I can get back into the grove... Until then here are week 19 photos.



Wisteria at my parents house.
Wind art at my parents house.
Yet another self portrait.

Last but not least the cat of the house (he tucks himself in)

365 Photos - Week 16

Work has been insanely busy lately, but I've been doing my best to take as many pictures as possible. Here's the representative sampling for week 16

A Zeppelin flies by our house.


Demo finally begins on our fireplace... I really want this done for my birthday this year... I did want new countertops, but since this hasn't gotten done I want this first.


Yeah yeah we are totally slow to get in the game. After most the blockbusters have closed near us and the rental rates have gone up we finally took the plunge.

365 Photos - Week 15

Cutling.

I have a thing for mini license plates.   Ours has been interpreted as slave rabbit...   I'll let you decide if SLVRBT is really our little Slave Rabbit.    But this one I saw on the way to work was clear MYTMINI,  Minis are sure mighty.    
I recently got moved from my cube to my very own office!!   This is the first time I've ever had an office.    kinda cool 

Jen is having a hippie party at work and so she decided she wanted to make tie dye stuff and I offered to come hang out and help for the day.    It ended up being a lot of fun (even if normally tie dye is hardly my "style")   Tie Dye Saturday


Jen's back yard.


Flowers,   I love flowers!!   And in Pink!

New Washer and Dryer YAY



About a month ago the dryer just didn't sound right, less than 2 loads later it refused to work any longer. Seeing as how it's at least 13yrs old (and likely older) we figured there was no reason to try to repair it. So out it came and into the front yard it's took up residence as we redid the closet: new vinyl flooring, repainted and updated the baseboards. Today after much waiting and nervousness about whether they would really fit in the given space our worry was replaced by relief and joy. I love our new washer and dryer.
