Tell Them – Thanks for Pulling Me Through
As many of you know, my brother passed away this past August from a brief battle with cancer. I’ve said a few times on my blog how surprised I was that his passing hit me so hard. What I didn’t tell you is that for a few months, I believe I was quite depressed. I’ve…

Project 365 2012 – A Photo a Day Journey – Week 5
This was a busy, busy week and I found that I used my iPhone a lot more for my Project 365 photos than I wanted to, which I have to remember is just fine. I wanted to challenge myself to take more pictures with my DSLR, but I also need to remember that’s not always…

Week 3 of 2012 has passed and it was a fairly low key week around here, which I always love. Even though it was low key, it seemed to fly by. Is anyone else in awe of the fact that we are entering the last week of January? Crazy, right? Here’s a look back at…

Week 2 of Project 365 – photos I didn’t go with for the week can be found on my Instagram and Flickr accounts. January 8th, 2012: My baby boy turned 10 today. My parents have been here for 2 weeks and also left to return back to South Texas today. I was happy to capture…

I’m participating in Project 365 again, although this time I’m adding my photos on a weekly basis to my blog. Daily, I’m uploading the pictures and the outtakes to Flickr, but wanted to share them as a weekly photo roundup as well. If you are doing Project 365, I’d love to follow along. Share the…
