These a few of my favorite pics from my myrtle beach vaca in March 2011

SkyWatch Friday

It's been awhile since I played along with SkyWatch Friday. Just because I haven't played along doesn't mean I haven't been taken pictures, I just had some persoanlly things to take care of but hope to be back each week with pictures. This picture was taken a few miles down the road from where I live towards the end of August. Hope you enjoy and be sure to check out the other amazing photos at SkyWatch Friday.

ABC Wednesday - Letter B

Welcome to ABC Wednesday. Hard to believe I'm posting this early this week, usually I'm late. This week is the letter B. B is for Butterflies. These butterfly photos were taken in 2006 during a trip to Magic Wings in Massachusetts. We had a wonderful trip that day. These are a few of my favorite photos. The butterflies were so gorgeous and the colors are amazing.

It wouldn't be the a B post if I didn't share a picture of my dog Buddy. Did you think you were going to get away without seeing Buddy? No Way!!! This is Buddy being tired after playing with Aunt Kayla and Me. He's so cute!!

Be sure to check out the other B photos at ABC Wednesday and while your there upload a photo we'll love to have you join us, the more the merrier!

New Hair Do/ABC Wednesday

It's a new start to ABC Wednesday. We are starting round 4. Hope you can join us. Being it's a new year, new round I thought I would share A new hair style with you that I have..

I have always had long curly hair. I thought it was time for a change so after work I cut my hair off and had it straighten (flat iron). I like it, but it's going to take some time to get used to. I miss my curls though.

Camera Critters # 41

This photo of Buddy was taken shortly after we got him. He was on the edge of the bed sleeping when I thought I would get down on the floor and take a picture of him sleeping and instead I got this. My timing couldn't have been any better. I love this photo!!! I used this photo and some other photos of sleepy Buddy on a scrapbook layout that can be seen here

Be sure to check out the other fantastic critters at Camera Critters and while your there upload a photo of your own!

ABC Wednesday - Letter Y

This week at ABC Wednesday we are up to the letter Y. The Letter Y = My Yellow Labrador Dog Buddy. Buddy will be 3 years next month. He is adorable. I love him so much. He is my furbaby and I love taking and sharing pictures of him.









This first picture was taken around Christmas of this year. He was so excited when our family from out of town came to visit not only did he get spoiled but the he got to play with the kids.

This second picture was taken shortly after we brung Buddy home. I love this picture. This is one of my all time favorites. I had to pull it out again for this post.

ABC Wednesday Letter Y

I do have photos to upload for this weeks ABC Wednesday Letter Y but blogger is not cooperating with me, it will not let me upload the pictures. I keep trying but I continue to get an error message. I have reported the error to blogger and I hope it gets fixed soon .

Camera Critters # 39

These photos were taken last weekend when our family came from out of state to celebrate Christmas. Buddy got spoiled by everyone (loads of biscuits and toys). He was such a good boy and he played so
well with the kids. Buddy laid in front of the presents (bones) patiently waiting to open and have one. I think Buddy was more patient about opening presents then the kids were though.

Camera Critters # 38

Buddy loves the snow. He loves to stick his head in the snow. When it was time to bring him inside he fought us and tried to get away so he didn't have to come in. With the help of Jeff and I we were able to get the 100 pound yellow lab in the house. If you click on the picture to enlarge it you can see better that Buddy is licking the snow off his nose. How funny!

Check out the other critters at Camera Critters. If you have a picture of a critter (dog, bird, cat, reptile, etc) we would love to have you join us.

Sky Watch #24

Welcome to Skywatch, this is truly one of my favorite meme's. This photo was taken last weekend at the local boat launch. If you enlarge the photo you can see the seagull sitting on top of the light post.

Happy Holidays!

ABC Wednesday - Letter w

I'm late posting this week due to the Christmas Holiday. We had a very nice Christmas and I hope you all had the same.

This week's ABC Wednesday is the letter W. W = Winter here in upstate New York. I was hoping for a white Christmas and we definitely had one. We had about 2 feet of snow dumped on us last Friday but with the rain and temps in the high 40's it's starting to melt, but there still is a decent amount out there. These pictures were taken the day of the storm (Friday Dec. 19).

Check out the other wonderful W photos at ABC Wednesday and if you have a photo that you would like to share with us we would love to have you join us. Happy Holidays!

Camera Critters # 37/ Puppies 12 days of Xmas

It has been snowing here since Friday afternoon. I have been busy making Christmas Gifts and going to Disney on Ice Show (pictures can be seen in the below post) that we finally made time today to take Buddy out to play in the snow. He loves the snow and the silly dog loves to bury his head in the snow. This is one of my favorite shots from today. This is perfect, he is so handsome, no I'm not basis at all. LOL! I hope everyone is enjoying their weekend and Happy Holidays to all of you! Don't forget to check out the other cute Camera Critters

I found this poem on the internet and this is the perfect post to share it in

100 Years of Magic Disney on Ice

Jeff and I went to Disney On Ice Celebrates 100 years of Magic. If you ever get a chance to attend a Disney Ice show I strongly recommend going, they are fantastic! We had terrific seats and got a lot of awesome photos. There were 18 different stories, the show lasted 2 hours (minus a small 15 minute break if that long). The photos below are a few of my favorites (I'm thrilled with the way a majority of the photos turned out). Remember you can click on the photos to enlarge them for better viewing, I strongly recommend it for the last photo. I have plenty more photos to share if you would like to see some more leave me a comment, better yet tell me who your favorite Disney character is and maybe they were at the show and I'll post a photo for you. Happy Holidays!

ABC Wednesday - Letter V

This week's ABC Wednesday is the letter V. As we get to the end of the alphabet I struggle with photo's that correspond with that week's letter, but this week came real easy to me.

Letter V = Vanessa (aka Cutie as I call her). Vanessa is six years old she is Jay (my friends) cousin and she lives in New York City. I haven't had to the chance to meet her in person yet but I have talked on the computer through instant messenger. She is the cutest thing and she is so smart for her. There isn't a beat that gets by this girl. The things that come out of her mouth are funny, for example she didn't do her homework and the teacher asked why and she said "because talking to Chrissy was more important" so needless to say all homework must be done before talking to me. I hope to that Vanessa's other cousin will be a sweetie and bring her up this weekend for me to met her (something her mean cousin Jay won't do). I have Christmas gifts for this little cutie.

Beginning to look a lot like Christmas

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas in my part of the world. This past weekend Jeff and I drove around looking at the various Christmas Displays. Our first stop was at Frosty Fest in Ulster Park, NY. It is a drive through light display. It was our first time visiting this particular display it was okay but not what we expected (we have been to something similar in Albany and we prefer that one over Frosty Fest. Frosty Fest was nice but expensive $10 a person and it was very small it took about 10 minutes to drive through and that was taken our time vs. the one in Albany takes an hour if not more to go through and is $15 a car regardless the # of people in the car). Remember to click on the photo's to see all the detail.

The first 3 photos are from Frosty Fest

These next 2 photos were taken on our way back home from Frosty Fest. I'm not sure if this is some one's home but what an amazing setup they have. Even the barn was decked out in lights!! If you click on the first photo in this group you will see Santa stuck in the chimney. This is awesome!! We enjoyed this display more then we did Frosty Fest.

The last 2 photos were taken in Saugerties NY. This light display is Courtesy of the Saugerties Kiwans. This is another spectacular display, this display we visit every year. I love the skaters on the little pond.

Hope you enjoyed the tour of my world. Hop over to That's My World to visit towns from all of the global.
