I tried to do a photo-a-day in 2009 and only got half-way thru February. I REALLY wish that I would have finished, but I can’t go back in time. Last year I didn’t even attempt it. Oh well. I am going to give it another try this year. Plus I have an awesome new cell phone that takes pretty good pictures (much better than my old phone) and it has internet so I can upload straight from my phone! It makes it a lot easier to capture moments as they happen with my phone in my pocket all the time. Probably most of my pictures will be UN-edited because I may upload directly to my blog from my phone.
Ok, so I’m going to upload my first 12 days in this post instead of 12 separate posts.
Here goes…

We switched to 8:30am church schedule, and we actually left the house early & got to church early! YAY!!

Kids went back to school, so I headed off to the gym. Time to get back into my routine too.

Just a couple of my fave treats that I may or may not hide in my closet so I don’t have to share – Circus Peanuts and Dark Chocolate Doves.

My 36th Birthday! Ben got me a dozen gorgeous white roses {my favorite} and a Cold Stone Creamery Peanut Butter and Chocolate ice cream cake! It was a good day! {I’m not thrilled that you can see the paper towel right next to my beautiful flowers in the picture. LOL}

We went to dinner for my birthday at Chili’s {the night before}. This was my take-home {free} birthday dessert – Hot fudge brownie sundae. It was delicious with my lunch today!

I’m rockin’ my Gold Glitter polish by OPI. I don’t paint my fingernails often, so it was kind of fun to be *sparkly* for a day or two, then it all chipped off.

I substituted in Anson’s primary class at church. The kids made these badges to go with the lesson & wore on their shirts - “I know Heavenly Father trusts me to CTR (Choose the Right)”

A horse {who apparently was in his 30’s} in our neighborhood died recently, so someone posted these flowers and this sign “In loving memory of Ike the horse” and Ashley is signing her name on the 2nd page. I signed it when she was done.

Apparently I have a long list of favorite treats. haha! These are on that list – dark chocolate covered dried fruits & nuts from Sprouts. In this mixture are almonds, cashews, walnuts, cherries, cranberries, and blueberries. Sprouts didn’t have any Goji berries too, when I got these a couple days ago. YUM!
