Testing 123

Just a test.

Moving to Photoblog

Since I will probably be taking more pictures with my cellphone, I am going to restart my Project365 at http://www.photoblog.com/amy365/. I really like Blogger and how it looks, but its a pain to do each post, even on my regular computer. If I figure out a more streamlined method, I'll be back.

Moon Through the Trees

I took this with my new phone (Nokia E63). Its not bad on normal shots, but low light needs some work.

Cold, Wet, Wide-Awake Dog

This is my Brittany again. She just had a bath, which she didn't like, but she did behave well (as in she didn't try to escape, soaking the house in 'eu de wet dog').

This picture gives her really odd proportions (especially her legs). She hunches up when she is wet (animal rights people need not worry, she is safely sleeping on the couch now).

P.S. - The title is a spin on a joke I heard:

• Question: "What do you get when a person tries to sober up with black coffee and a cold shower?"
  
• Answer: "A cold, wet, wide-awake drunk."

Lego Sword

My eldest son made this of legos. He is just as competent with the larger legos, mini legos, knex, lincoln logs and standard blocks. He has made things like airplanes, helicopters, transformers, even a shield.

He can actually pick this up - it stretches across the table.

My Computer Background

This is the background I made using The GIMP (a free & opensource photo editor). It is my husband and three sons, the pictures are from the summer before last I think. It will be time to update it soon!

This is the second take, the first one had to much glare (its so nice to have digital cameras were you can look at the images before you leave the area).

Happy Face

Well somebody got stickers for his birthday. Day one: he takes one sticker, and hands them back to me so I can put them away. Day two: I turn my back for 3 minutes and he has a very happy face. (This is son #2 by the way.)
