Day 168: Self Portrait: In The Dark

On June 18, 2011June 20, 2012 By LindyIn photography, selfportrait

Yesterday I worked from home for half a day so I could actually concentrate on some online training without any distractions. It was dark & rainy in the morning – perfect weather to stay inside.

Last night we checked out the Italian wine selection at Red X, and we were pleasantly surprised to see they had an entire row dedicated to Italian vino! Salute!

Day 166: City of Fountains

Sometimes Kansas City is called the city of fountains. Yesterday Jerod and I met at a park downtown for lunch near this fountain. He often has to work overtime, so I’m grateful for the days when we get to eat lunch outside together.

Day 165: Bumping up with Bunco

On June 15, 2011 By LindyIn photography

Last night my cousin Holly and I hosted our 2nd Annual Bunco for Relay night. We had a great turnout with 28 people, we ate a lot of food and had a great time socializing. But best of all, we raised $442 for our Relay For Life team! We’re moving up toward our $5,000 goal!

Day 164: The Chopping Block

I spent most of yesterday evening getting ready for our Bunco for Relay fundraiser tonight. This is one of my “fruits” of labor – fresh vegetables for a veggie tray.

Day 163: Helping Hands

I noticed these perfect hand prints on our bed as Jerod helped me change the sheets yesterday. What’s your feedback … is it a creative photo, or is it just hard to tell what’s going on?

Day 162: The Hills Are Alive

On June 12, 2011 By LindyIn photography

Last night we went to Theatre in the Park to watch the Sound of Music. Since it was so nice outside we decided to get there early to get a good seat. Believe it or not, we got there at 6 p.m. for an 8:30 show and the crowds were already forming.

Day 161: Taking a Gander

Yesterday evening my sister and nephew stayed with us before heading to the airport in the morning. My nephew loves to feed the geese and the ducks at our pond. The goslings are now several weeks old and actually bigger (and meaner) than the full-grown ducks!

Spencer and Jerod look on as they feed geese.

Day 160: Trash and Treasures

On June 10, 2011 By LindyIn photography

This week is the Platte Woods United Methodist Church annual Trash & Treasure Sale. Since we only joined the church a few months ago, last night was my first time experiencing the sale. All I can say is…WOW! I’ve never seen so many “treasures” in my life! The only sale I know of that competes with this one is my former high school Band Garage Sale, which raises around $10,000 annually. All the proceeds from this sale go toward the church’s mission trips.

Day 159: My Favorite Ingredients

Yesterday I got together with a couple of friends at ingredient for lunch. $5 pizzas – can’t beat that! (Although I had my fair share of pizza in Italy so I got a salad this time.)
