Static Electricity!
This is blurry but I love the wild hair thing she has going on.

Patrick made a wonderful dinner tonight.
It was great to come home from work and not have to cook.

Yes, Chloe does get out of the baby carrier.
After sleeping more then one hour straight this afternoon Chloe was content to play on her own.
While she played with her toys I played with mine.

I spent some time today pulling my school supplies together. My photography class starts in 9 days and I wanted to see what I still need. I think I have everything but film. Film will wait until I find out what speed we will be shooting in. Oh yeah and the camera needs batteries !
I am glad I checked.

Since I got the new camera I have bought 2 camera bags.

The Tamrac Adventure 7 which is a camera bag in the bottom and a backpack on top. I love this idea for long days sightseeing or all day events but for daily use it is too big to carry with the diaper bag. It is large enough to carry the camera with a large lens, 2 or 3 additional lenses and a flash. There are straps available to carry your tripod and loads of pockets for storage. The top is large enough to carry a light jacket, a book, sun screen etc and there are side water bottle pockets. I haven't removed the tags yet because I can't decide if it is over kill or if I will grow into it and absolutely love it for day trips. I can fit both my digital and film cameras in the large bag right now since I haven't purchased any additional lenses. I would love your opinion.

I picked up the smaller Tamrac bag to carry daily, especially at work when I am carrying a diaper bag too. It is large enough to hold the camera with a large lens, one extra lens and a flash. It has a few small pockets too.

I did not take today's photo, Kate did. We met a friend for lunch today and Lilly wanted to ride in the stroller so I put Chloe in the Ergo. Meghan decided she wanted to try Lilly's "skateboard". We turned a lot of heads strolling through the mall like this.

Doesn't everyone come to work the day after their birthday and find this on the front door?!

I love my job!

Sunday afternoon was the drive home... I have a fear of bridges and to get to the beach we have to cross the Chesapeake Bay Bridge... twice!

I came home to a wonderful birthday dinner and my dear daughter baked two yummy cakes... one for me and one for my daughter in law, Christy. We share a birthday.

Connie and I spent most of Saturday working on unfinished quilts. It is always amazing how much we can accomplish on a sewing weekend. We both finished a quilt top.






In the afternoon when we needed a break from our sewing machines we went to Assateague. I LOVE the beach and Assateague has the added bonus of horses.

Meet George (that's what we called him).

He was so friendly he came over and put his head in the car.

We got to see a beautiful sunset.
