I saw this little scavenger hunt on Barb’s Fancy Word for Simple blog yesterday and thought I’d join in. I’m a day behind posting this and today our weather turned a bit cooler but while I was taking these photos it was a beautiful 69 degrees and sunny. I had all the windows open and just the right amount of sunlight to do some practicing with the camera. :)

I used more of Nancy’s fantastic frame clusters which are 25% off right now at My Digital Muse. Can’t get enough of these. :)

I also started taking a photo-a-day and, yes Lauren, I finally started posting them in flickr. I really wish typepad had a better photo-calendar option but I guess flickr is the best online tool for posting pics that way for now.

The snow is all melting here and it’s kinda fun to see what my new neighborhood looks like when it’s not completely covered in white. I’m actually a big fan of the white stuff but I’m ready for spring and coming home tonight I see that they’ve put in a new sidewalk by my apartments. I’m thinking going for walks might be a great way to discover my new surroundings. I’ve got the route to the grocery store and blockbuster figured out and I’m checking out a few churches in the area. I really liked the one I went to this past Sunday. I loved that they called the kids program ‘wonder years’, they had a baptism and I loved their views on that, the message was great and I was actually a little disappointed that I had to miss the evening service because of a birthday party for Kennedy. Plus, you know me and my public bathroom obsession, well this church had it right, right down to the diaper changing area with wipes and diapers provided and there was even a basket with feminine products. How thoughtful is that?! Anyway, I think I’ll be going back but not this Sunday. This Sunday Lauren and Dave are coming into town and we’re going to Mars Hill. Both of them have been reading the book Velvet Elvis and I told them that the author preaches at a church right near my new apartment and I’ve never even been. I think the church is too big for my taste as far as a church home for me but I’m excited to experience what it is that’s made this church grow into the kind of place people spend a half an hour trying to find a parking spot just to hear this guy speak. In the meantime I want to post a verse that struck me last Sunday so that I’ll remember this promise that even applies to me.

Kay, off to visit a few blogs, set out clothes for work tomorrow and then crawl into bed. If you join in on the scavenger hunt post a link so I can see what pics you came up with.
