day 358.

its been a Great Year!

especially the last few weeks of it :)

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

i can't believe my this project is over.

i have NO IDEA why i only have 358 days, though.

that makes me sad :(

i guess i could go through and count all of them to see where i messed up.. weird!

oh well.

i loved doing this, and now that it's over, i don't know what i am going to do.

its become such a habit to get my "photo of the day"

i got really lazy there though at the end of it. i wasn't bringing my camera around everywhere with me like i used to, and i missed out on some cool photos, which is sad.

i'm thinking i'll do another one of these, soon.

i want to make a book of it!

if you are a fellow 365'er , leave me your blog, i'd love to keep up with you!

thanks for all my loyal followers! 

hope you all have a WONDERFUL NEW YEAR!!

and i challenge you to in SOME WAY, document your everyday life. You'll be surprised at what awesomeness surrounds you. you'll learn to appreciate small things. you'll see beauty everywhere, even in the mundane. you don't have to be a photographer, you just have to LIKE to take pictures AND commit to it.

SO DO IT! you won't regret it!

goodbye, sob sob.

Sea World, San Diego.

Shamu Show.

the rain was outrageous. horrid. a joke. a nightmare.

jax still got to see some pretty cool stuff, and for that we are thankful.

day 342.

i have to take a minute to brag.

i took this picture ALL in camera. I did not edit it to be all swirly like that. i did that ON MY OWN! no photoshop!  I am just so proud!

don't ask me to do it again, i tried and i can't.

but i am quite happy about this!

day 341.

peace on Earth.

day 340.

tonight was andy's work christmas party. we finally got to see where he spends his weekends working his butt off! i met his manager who said he wished he had 100 andrews running around working there because he's such a great, hard worker! that's cool!

oh we were lucky to get this photo, there are no cameras allowed there, but i NEEDED a photo, and i wasn't about to be told no because of a stupid rule. we did it fast and no one saw. andy's not  a rule breaker, so he wasn't exactly happy about this.

day 339.

andy made this cute little guy in grade school.
