January 4: Driving Home From Work

It was a super cold day, and even at 4pm, the morning frost lingered.

It was overcast and dreary, but no rain.

January 3: We start yoga class

Rob and I started a yoga class tonight. We were supposed to bring yoga mats and blankets, so I packed us a bag to take with us. The instructor was really nice although sometimes it was hard to hear her clearly. We both enjoyed the class, and I am already looking forward to Wednesday when we get to go again :) I was wondering through the whole class why we had to bring blankets, and then we got to the relaxation time. I looked around, and everyone was wrapping themselves in blankets, pulling on warm swearshirts and wool hats, then lying down on their yoga mats to relax and listen to some peaceful music. Pretty cool. Both of our pictures were obviously inspired by yoga class today....

...although Rob got a little more artistic with his shot.

January 2

We bought this new sideboard for our kitchen today, for all of our new dishes and glassware.

Then Rob got this shot of the beautiful sunset.

January 1: The project begins again

Rob and I have decided to start project 365 again. Just like we did in 2009, we will take a picture each day this year and post to this blog. Here is day 1 of project 365, 2011.

In 2010, 10 abandoned buildings were set on fire in Albany, Oregon. This picture is the fence next to one of these houses. It stood near where we currently live. Hopefully, in 2011 we will have no more arson in the neighborhood.

And here is our lone Christmas decoration, the Elvis Christmas stocking. Most awesome thing ever!

Fourth of July 2010

As dusk falls, Rob and Roger prepare for the night's festivities, while an American flag blows in the breeze behind them.

Spelling with sparklers.

And the fireworks.....
