p52 Week 8 - Cabin Fever

Not too much cabin fever going on when you live in Florida, but the past few days have been a little stormy so we've all been holed up inside enjoying catching up on some tv and doing puzzles and games.

I got some shots of the rain out the front door on Wednesday, so that's my P52 shot this week... I realized the white balance was off a few pictures later, but this was still my favorite, the way the rain was captured, so I went with it anyway.

P52 Week 7 - True Love

I did a whole lot this week regarding love. It was my son's 5th birthday on Saturday, my 7th wedding anniversary on Sunday, and when you throw in Valentines day it makes for some busy, fun, loving times with family.

But for my P52 picture this week I decided to show off some love from my extended family, my beautiful sister and niece, who we got to visit with on Thursday.

Here's my gorgeous niece....

And her equally gorgeous mommy... Now, at 15 months, Emilee is not one to slow down very often when her awesome aunt and cousin are around, but she did sneak some cuddle time with her mommy toward the end of our visit, definitely true love :)

P52 Week 6 - Drink Up

Jordan's 5th birthday is Saturday, so as a surprise I took him to Walt Disney World on Thursday for his present. He had such a good day. When we got there a cast member gave him a button that said he was there for his birthday and all day long everyone kept telling him "Happy Birthday." He loved it! I'll need to do another post with the pics of our day, but for my P52 post I thought I'd keep it short and sweet.

I made reservations for us to eat dinner at the Plaza Restaurant on Main Street. It's a cool little restaurant themed like the 1940's and they have a old fashioned ice cream parlor too. I ordered us a strawberry milkshake to share and then they also surprised Jordan with a cupcake for his birthday. It was sugar overload!!

So here's my P52 Post for this week's theme, "Drink Up."  And we did.....

P52 Week 5 - Shadows

Late this week on my post, but I did take the picture on time.

This weeks theme is Shadows. You'd think in sunny Florida that I'd have plenty of ops for some good shadows outside, but it's been surprisingly overcast this week, but I did get some good shadows as I was relaxing in the bath Thursday night, so I thought I would post one of those.

A dimly candlelit room is not the best place for pictures, but it is a great place to relax, which was desperately needed that night. As Jordan comes upon 5 years old he's also learning how to through a great tantrum. Sometimes a minute in a hot bath with some music, a candle, and a glass (or two) of wine is one of the best things to help me relax and wind down from a draining or frustrating day.

This upcoming week is probably one busiest weeks of the whole year, with Jordan's birthday, his party, and our wedding anniversary all packed into a few days. Add a secret birthday surprise for Jordan and my mind is full of to-do lists and scheduling, but it will all be worth it in the end. I know I'll be filling up my memory card this week... Stay tuned.
