Paint-A-Thon Pictures

I am really getting use out of the SLR camera I got for Christmas.  It is phenomenal.  I took these pictures and edited them before work last Tuesday.  







Dusty Instruments

These things ought to keep me occupied until April 16 right?  Good luck to Christine, who is beginning her 70-80 hour weeks until the end of tax/audit season.

Albums

Today, buying a whole album is rare, and buying a cd is often not even considered.  Unfortunately, I find myself a part of the itunes 99 cent song culture.  I sample songs and only buy the ones I like on my first impression, unless I am already familiar with the band.  That being said a few albums on this list didn't really appeal to me upon first listen, but since I had the cd I listened to all the songs anyway.  It can take time to develop a connection with great music.  Here are the albums that I still listen to start to finish, enjoying every minute.     


Band of Horses - Everthing All The Time

Anberlin- Cities

Arcade Fire - Neon Bible

The Postal Service - Give Up

The National - Boxer

Weezer - Blue Album

Family Fun

Kyle, Lori, and Livia, came from IA this weekend!  Ang stopped by with her little monster to hang out on Saturday.  The ladies and kids went to the Trunk or Treat event at a local church during the day on Saturday.  What a great weeekend.
