This week was a little bit
calmer than last week – although it felt like I spent most of my time trying to
leave my office (I had to get crochet supplies for Dr. M’s gift, have my oil
changed, pick up my new glasses and get two fillings replaced – that’s a lot of
things to fit into a 30 minute lunch hour. Ha!).

November 10th
This was another one of those days where we realized that we hadn’t
taken a picture. Thankfully Mr. Moon obliged.
Monday,
November 11th
Dr. M stopped on his way home
from school to take some leaf pictures through his moon roof & look what he
saw!! The consensus is that it’s a screech owl.
He also saw this annoyed looking
Jersey :)
The Tax
Time Pig! (A little more in focus this week)

We had snow on the ground when
we woke up today.
The moon!
And a lovely sunset on his
campus.

Dr. M’s birthday! I went to the
grocery store to get something sweet for him (really for me – ha!) and I saw
this really cute cake! It’s perfect for me (who needs actual cake when you can
have icing?), but I knew he would appreciate cannoli more.
Dr. M took this leaf carpet
picture – lovely!
We went out for Mexican food –
he had the pollo en mole.
Here’s his present, all finished
up. What an interesting little project this was (if I make another one I have to figure out how to keep the head from looking like a fez!)!

The moon!

November 15th
Dr. M & I went to watch the women’s volleyball game at
his school. It was senior night - & they won! (I was fascinated by the
referee’s beard – I don’t know why!)
Saturday,
November 16th
Lots of pictures today. First of all, Dr. M trimmed Pinky
back a bit & presented me with this vase of flowers for my desk. So sweet…
Then we went on a ramble and saw, guess what? Sheep!
I was trying to take a picture of the pigs & got
photobombed by this cow.
Here’s the whole tableau.
A couple of weeks ago SouthLakesMom sent this scarf as
a thanks for the one I sent her. It’s really long, but she had mentioned that
one way to wear it would be to wrap it around my head – it’s really warm &
cozy this way! Please note the bicycle motif :) Thanks Kelly!
Go to Mamma Fran’s blog here
to see the blogs of all the other Project 365 participants. Have a great week!
Most of our photos are taken with a 12
megapixel Nikon D5000 DSLR, using a 55-200mm zoom lens. This is the camera that
Dr. M takes with him most days. He also takes pictures with our old reliable 7
megapixel Canon Powershot A710. The Bug uses our new Nikon Coolpix S6200 most of the
time. If you’re interested in which camera was used for a particular shot, just
ask!
The tax pig's legs look just like mine. especially the underdeveloped knees.
ReplyDeleteHah - your Sunday picture and comment made me laugh out loud. I can totally relate to that.
ReplyDeleteAnd I would love a cake like that...I'm pretty sure they would have it in chocolate frosting, too, wouldn't they?
tax time outfit courtesy of Dana, all crocheted up? little lambs and geraniums. good.
ReplyDeleteThat screech owl is fantastic -- how does Dr. M have that kind of luck with birds? wow!
ReplyDeleteThe TT Pig looks like a piece of candy corn, and I think the sheep in fez is just perfect!
Glad you like the scarf. It's an infinity one so you can wrap twice or 3 times even on a really cold day!
Pure luck! I just stopped in the middle of the road to take pics of the leaves overhead, and there was the owl!
DeleteHad to give the doggy cake a second look, it seemed real for a second.
ReplyDeleteLove the snow pictures. This time of year I always get excited, wondering if THIS will be the year we get some snow here. I'm usually disappointed come March, but for now, I'm still optimistic. Thanks for sharing. :)
ReplyDeleteS
the cake made me smile, i love the owl shots and always pleased to see TTP
ReplyDeleteAll the pics are great, but Mr.Owl and that funky tree really ministered to me. Awesome!
ReplyDeleteThanks! Me, too.
DeleteThat cow knows it's way cuter than those pigs.
ReplyDeleteSuch a darling little Jersey! Way cuter.
DeleteSeeing that owl during the day is a neat discovery!
ReplyDeleteI like the cake and the present!
And yes, the ref's beard is interesting.
Sorry but as Norman Mailer would say, "I fugging love Dr. M's photos!"
ReplyDeleteThat is the cutest cake I've ever seen. Here's the thing. I think I could make it. It actually looks doable.
ReplyDeleteSnow! I want some.
That owl is amazing!
ReplyDeleteHow did you get Dr. M in black and white and the food in color? Are you colorizing?
