Easter and Puppets and Projects

Sunday, April 19th, 2009

We had a really great Easter and were able to see the Easter Bunny and hunt for eggs…eat chocolate…

We hung eggs in a little tree in the backyard (tradition)…I like this tree/bush because it starts with yellow and then turns to green - a progression to spring (fall in reverse).

We’ve also or at least the boys have been busy making puppets - I made a princess and prince and we had a puppet show - made a video, too - I’ll have to try and figure out how to load it.

And I was asked to be goofy - I guess this is as goofy as I get (photo by Liam).

I used an PS Action on the above two photos that I’m liking - Super Fun Happy from Totally Rad Actions.

So projects; again I am procrastinating.  I am overwhelmed with what I would like to accomplish, but just need to start.

Have a great week!

April Adventures

Wednesday, April 8th, 2009

We had a pretty nice adventure today in Weinheim, not too far from Heidelberg - first in a while and it’s spring break so it was very nice and refreshing even with all the walking.  The boys got the chance to walk two really cute spanish dogs - and loved it:

And we saw some beautiful Sequoia trees - not native to the area (planted around 150 years ago):

As long as the boys were walking the dogs on the leashes - they were great, but if not they were too tired to walk, LOL…Liam and I on the trail:

And we saw some cool buildings - this is a mausoleum inside the palace grounds:

And a cool door to the mausoleum except for the graffiti:

And we were able to take some breaks - this is on a cute little street in the town (see next photo):

Street View:

And then we visited an old castle (mostly ruins) - view from castle:

And we went up to the tower:

But Aodhan and I were the only ones who made it (Liam was a little scared)…and Aodhan wanted to be goofy - serious one second and laughing the next:

And here’s another photo of the castle ruins:

So we had a great day and are very tired - the boys actually fell asleep in the car on the way home and Liam got a bit car sick on the ride up to the castle, but overall awesome day!

Spring Break

Sunday, April 5th, 2009

…spring break is here and I’m not much of a blogger - I’ve taken ONE photo in three weeks and have been working lots.  I will be spending my week catching up on deadlines, and maybe sleep…we’re also enjoying some spring kind of weather - feels like spring (it’ll probably rain tomorrow)…but that’s okay.
Here’s my one photo:
