Dreaming of February
My little section of Indiana is covered in a thick blanket of cold, wintry snow, so I'm dreaming of a warmer climate. T minus 18 days!

Six months later...
Some of you might remember the pictures I posted a few months back. That little guy is already one and I've got a few more photos to post of him. He's already running and has got to be one of the happiest one-year olds I've met!

Not my area but still really fun
Even though I'm not a photographer by trade, I really enjoy it. This weekend we trekked to Saint Louis to meet my mom, dad, and brother to finish taking his senior pictures. He's really into his dirt bike, so that dominated the majority of the session.
Memorial Day Weekend Roadtrip
Over Memorial Day weekend, my husband and I helped my brother and his wife move from Nashville, Tennessee (specifically Murfreesburo) to Winter Park, Colorado (specifically Tabernash). We flew down to Nashville Thursday night, spent all day Friday driving, spent Saturday in Kansas with my parents, finished the trip on Sunday, stayed at my sister-in-law's parent's house Sunday night, and flew home Monday. Needless to say, it was quite a long trip, but still really fun. There are few other people I'd volunteer to help move that far. My main job was to be the photo-journalist for the trip, and while I wasn't horribly successful, I've posted a few shots that summarize the trip. If you'd like to see a video from the weekend, check out my Flickr account.

Just couldn't resist - a beautiful, vintage motor.
At my parents house - everyone always seems to gravitate to the trampoline or the dirt bike. Notice Tyler jumping off the trampoline and onto the bike.

What would a trip to Kansas be without a beer tasting with craft beer from Schilling Bridge?

Design #80: The Lazy Dinosaur Pangram
The phase "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog" is a pangram (a phrase that uses all of the letters of the alphabet). It's especially used when demonstrating a typeface because it is short and coherent. Unfortunately, I've always taken issue with this phrase; I've never met a dog (lazy or otherwise) that would allow a fox to jump over it. I like to think that it seems about as unrealistic as saying, "The quick brown dog jumps over the lazy dinosaur," but then it wouldn't be a pangram.
But who needs an "f" and "x" anyway?

Design a Day Photoshoot
Last night I had the pleasure of doing a mini-photoshoot marking 6 months in the world for my friend's son. He's a super cute and smiley little guy and even though he only lasted about 1/2 hour, we had a great time. I've posted a few of the images in lieu of last night's Design a Day.
