365 Update #17

[day 117 :: may 5 :: htc incredible 2 :: pse 11]

Some little sprouts just waiting to get into the garden!

[day 118 :: may 6 :: htc incredible 2 :: pse 11]

Sunny day!

[day 119 :: may 7 :: htc incredible 2 :: pse 11]

Pretty sun on my run...ha, I rhymed.

[day 120 :: may 8 :: htc incredible 2 :: pse 11]

Okay, not the greatest picture, but the only one I had for the day.  Besides, you can't go wrong with Chocolate Ale...trust me.

[day 121 :: may 9 :: htc incredible 2 :: pse 11]

This is a common view in my 365 project...can't help it.  Always pretty ...and easy.

[day 122 :: may 10 :: htc incredible 2 :: pse 11]

Aziz! This picture is crap (just like he told us all the would be), but I don't care because I got to go see AZIZ!  :D

[day 123 :: may 11 :: canon rebel xsi :: pse 11]

Omg, my little brother graduated highschool.  This is a photo of my grandma and a long time family friend at his graduation party...which was flippin freezing by the way. :)

more to come!

365 Update #16

I'm so ridiculously behind on posting that it's just sad.  Basically, the more photos that I had building up  the less I wanted to deal with them! Luckily, it's a long weekend and I have zero plans - so I have zero excuses!  Sit back, relax and be prepared for several blog updates this weekend!

[day 110 :: april 28 :: htc incredible 2 :: pixlr xpress]

This one is a lie.  It's another filler, but I hadn't shared it yet (at least not on this blog).  It's from awhile ago when Brian and I went geocaching. :)

[day 111 :: april 29 :: htc incredible 2 :: pse 11]

My 5k training is going AWESOME.  I've passed some milestones that never seemed possible before and it just feels great!

[day 112 :: april 30 :: htc incredible 2 :: pse 11]

I got a little cactus plant...isn't he cute?  

[day 113 :: may 1 :: htc incredible 2 :: pse 11]

Oops, my bad - this is the only photo I took that day.  It's of my food of course...little taco bites.  The picture is crap, but the dinner was yummy!

[day 114 :: may 2 :: htc incredible 2 :: pse 11]

So this happened.

I'm not joking.  I think we got about 8 inches of HEAVY snow...as you can see our tree is touching the ground.  It usually isn't...le sigh.  At least it melted pretty quickly.

[day 115 :: may 3 :: canon rebel xsi :: pse 11]

Cutest. Dog. Ever.  Seriously, what a ham!  He spent a good 15 minutes just rolling around on the floor letting me take pictures of him! :)

[day 116 :: may 5 :: htc incredible 2 :: pixlr xpress]

Happy Cinco...one day early!  We went to a nearby "big" town to see Iron Man 3 and celebrate with mexican food.  The movie was pretty good and the margaritas were even better!

More updates coming!

365 Update #15

[day 103 :: april 21 :: htc incredible 2 :: befunky]

Lovely day for a lovely walk! Theo loves getting off his leash and just running...

[day 104 :: april 22 :: htc incredible 2 :: befunky]

A cop out day, sorry :/ However, this is the first photo Brian & I took together, lol.

[day 105 :: april 23 :: htc incredible 2 :: pixlr xpress]

Another cop out, this picture sucks. It’s only slightly saved b/c of the adorable subject. Ha!

[day 106 :: april 24 :: htc incredible 2 :: pixlr xpress]

Just playing with the light...and my hair, lol.

[day 107 :: april 25 :: htc incredible 2 :: pixlr xpress]

Some fun with perspective...and one of my nerdiest necklaces. Yea, that’s a globe. :P

[day 108 :: april 26 :: htc incredible 2 :: pixlr xpress]

Showing off my new do! Well, just spruced up, actually. It’s been ombre for awhile, but it grew out some so I had it done again. Lovin’ it!

[day 109 :: april 27 :: htc incredible 2 :: pixlr xpress]

‘Tis the season...for grilling and power hour! Cheers for warmer weather! :D

365 Recap #13

[day 89 :: april 7 :: htc incredible 2 :: instagram]

Skinny Bang Bang Shrimp with pineapple coleslaw and fried quina "rice"! YUM!

[day 90 :: april 8 :: htc incredible 2 :: pixlr express]

View from my jog.

[day 91 :: april 9 :: htc incredible 2 :: pixlr express]

Brian and Theo - YAY!  Well Brian looks "YAY!", but Theo just looks like... wth. 

[day 92 :: april 10 :: htc incredible 2 :: pixlr express]

Only photo from the day.  Shitty photo, yummy food.  I found a recipe for Southwest Eggrolls online and they were fantastic!

[day 93 :: april 11 :: htc incredible 2 :: pixlr express]

Another shit photo.  BUT, have you guys had these yet?  We love 'em!

[day 94 :: april 12 :: htc incredible 2 :: pixlr express]

Ohmygosh.  For real, all my photos suck.  I was so lazy - basically this was just a documentin' life kinda week. Ha, it happens.

[day 95 :: april 13 :: canon rebel xsi :: pse 11]

There! One artsy fartsy photo taken on my real camera and edited in photoshop elements.  I played with it to make a double exposure effect.  Woot.

-*-*-*-

Alright, off to bed!

xo, kass

365 Recap #12

[day 82 :: march 31 :: htc incredible 2 :: pixlr xpress]

Part of our Missy's Birthday Game of Throne Feast!  Cooking whole birds like this is flipping weird, let me tell yea, but soooo worth it.  They were fantastic!

[day 83 :: april 1 :: htc incredible 2 :: pixlr xpress]

I was super lazy this week.  This is the first of three photos of Theo....

[day 84 :: april 2 :: htc incredible 2 :: pixlr xpress]

Bookshelf!

[day 85 :: april 3 :: htc incredible 2 :: pixlr xpress]

This is my typical pre-bed ritual - most recently I've been watching old CSI Miami episiodes, though I'm not sure why.  It's not really that great of a show, but I can get the regular CSI (las vegs) via instant, so it will do. Lol

[day 86 :: april 4 :: htc incredible 2 :: pixlr xpress]

See more lazy, all these photos are lazy photos.  

[day 87 :: april 5 :: canon rebel xsi :: pse 11]

Okay, another of Theo, but not a lazy photo.  Lazy for him though, ha!  He was wet and cold and shivering, so we wrapped him up in blankets (one was heated)!  He freaking loved it and ended up dozing.  A sleepy puppy is a good puppy. :P

[day 88 :: april 6 :: canon rebel xsi :: pse 11]

The weather wasn't awful, so we decided to go geocaching!  It ened up with the three of us covered in mud and at one point I was certain Brian was going to fall into the river.  Regardless, we had a lot of fun!

----------

One more week and I'm caught up!

365 Recap #11

[day 75 :: march 24 :: htc incredible 2 :: photo grid]

So yea, it was 10:20 pm and I realized I had yet to take my daily.  This shit is past my bedtime!

[day 76 :: march 25 :: htc incredible 2 :: instagram + photo grid]

FILLER!  I'm such a dirty cheater.  Seriously, actually remembering to take a photo each and everyday is intense.  Sometimes the day just gets away from you!  This is from our trip to Minneapolis.

[day 77 :: march 26 :: htc incredible 2 :: pixlr xpress]

Just keep running, just keep running....

[day 78 :: march 27 :: canon rebel xsi :: pse 11]

This was a little experiment - while I don't love this image, I like it.  And I like the concept, so I'm going to try it again in the future with a stronger silhouette shape.

[day 79 :: march 28 :: htc incredible 2 :: instagram]

This is what usually greats me in the morning.  The scene is not always this adorable, but they are always there. :)

[day 80 :: march 29 :: htc incredible 2 :: instagram]

We bought a new couch!  Well, new to us couch...and I love it. It's got a retro vibe and it's avocado green, what more could you want?

[day 81 :: march 30 :: canon rebel xsi :: pse11]

Happy Birthday Missy! :)  Ha, okay those are belated now, but whatever.  I baked her a cake batter cheesecake for her birthday and lemme just say, this shit was amazing.  For real.  I wish I had some right now....

slowly catching up!

365 Recap #7

[day 47 :: feb 24:: Canon Rebel Xsi : no edits]

Just a glimpse into my kitchen...

[day 48 :: feb 25 :: Canon Rebel Xsi :: photoshop]

Oh my gosh, this was AMAZING.  We really liked it anyway.  I used the recipe of Oh She Glows. If you like pasta and if you like avocados - then you will like this dish! You're welcome. :)

[day 49 :: feb 26 :: htc incredible 2 :: pixlr xpress]

A new necklace of mine - I really like it.  I'm going to be honest and tell you this was one of those last-minute-right-before-bed kind of pictures.  ...as if you couldn't tell, ha!

[day 50 :: feb 27 :: htc incredible 2 :: pixlr xpress]

Just me with some ridiculous fun filters in pixlr. :)

[day 51 :: feb 28 :: Canon Rebel Xsi :: photoshop]

We bought a starfruit!  I don't know why...they were at Hy-Vee and looked pretty, basically.  I didn't mind it, but it's definitely not something I'd make a habit of eating - at least not by itself.  I do, however, think it would be super pretty in a fruit salad!

[day 52 :: march 1:: htc incredible 2 :: pixlr xpress]

Happy Two Year Anniversary Brian! <3  Yes, March 1st marked two years for Brian and I. :)  We went out to a nice dinner and to see Silver Linings Playbook - I enjoyed both.  Since I was way to busy enjoying a date night this is the only photo I got for the day - luckily I thought to document the lovely flowers he sent me!  What a guy, eh? :)

[day 53 :: march :: Canon Rebel Xsi :: photoshop]

Here's my other favorite guy!  I couldn't help myself, the lighting was great and the look was priceless.  Besides I did warn you that there'd be lots of Theo.  What can I say, I'm a proud momma! :P

-|-|--|--|--|-|-

Once again, I've slacked off and thus am behind on posting photos.  Sooooo there will be another update later this weekend (hopefully) or at least early next week!  And tomorrow I'm headed to DM to chill with my girls and take some more pictures, so I'll have to share those at some point too!  

Have a great weekend!

365 Recap #4

Hey all!  It's been a little longer than I'd prefer BUT I have been keeping up with my photo-a-day.  On my phone, of course, but still.  The documentin' is going great! :)  I'm going to try to aim for 2 pictures on my Canon each week, yea...that seems doable. 

[day 19 :: jan 27 :: HTC droid incredible 2 :: pixlr xpress]

[day 20 :: jan 28 :: HTC droid incredible 2 :: pixlr xpress]

There were a couple of days where it was cra-zy foggy, so on my commute I stopped and took this.  I even got out of my car. I know, you are shocked by my dedication.

[day 21 :: jan 39 :: HTC droid incredible 2 :: pixlr xpress]

My bedside water glass, ha!  Okay, I know it's totally a silly (ie. stupid) picture, but it actually turned out kinda pretty.  Does anyone else love using mason jars as drinking glasses?

[day 22 :: jan 30 :: HTC droid incredible 2 :: pixlr xpress]

Someone take me to Ireland.  Please?

[day 23 :: jan 31 :: HTC droid incredible 2 :: pixlr xpress]

snowy day.

[day 24 :: feb 1 :: HTC droid incredible 2 :: pixlr xpress]

Omg, please accept my apologies for this photo.  The day got away from me and this was all I had. Seriously, sorry.

[day 25 :: feb 2 :: HTC droid incredible 2 :: pixlr xpress]

I like sushi, especially sushi with eel and avocado.  YUM.  After enjoying some saki along with the sushi, we took in a show and some night life down in Des Moines.  It was lots of fun!  

[day 26 :: feb 3 :: HTC droid incredible 2 :: pixlr xpress]

View of downtown Des Moines from our hotel room. 

[day 27 :: feb 4 :: HTC droid incredible 2 :: pixlr xpress]

I warned you!  Again, don't care 'cuz he's so damn cute. 

[day 28 :: feb 5 :: HTC droid incredible 2 :: pixlr xpress]

You can see BOTH of our stoplights in this photo.  Are you impressed? :)

Sorry for the belated update, hopefully I'll be more prompt this week, but no promises as I'm the queen of procrastination.

xo, Kassie
