Day 30

Long story short:   Stolen medal returned today. Ribbon missing.

Day 29

Dex playing with his shadow

 So many things to discover outside!

Day 28

I got flowers today!

I was asked to speak to the young women in our old ward and they gave me flowers as a thank you gift.  It was so fun to see old friends.  I have never been a fan of flowers, but lately, I have loved it when I have fresh flowers in my home.  Thank you Odette and the Butler 11th ward!

Day 27

So let me explain....

 I've been trying to improve my photos, and I wanted to practice.

Dean was trying to be a good sport about it, but he really wasn't having a good time.  While I would change settings, try putting the "off camera flash" in different locations, push the timer and run over and pose for the picture, Dean would work on his computer, and then close it right before the picture was taken.  I still couldn't get the focus as crisp as I wanted.  The result, a picture with pretty good lighting, and forced smiles on both of us.  On the bright side, slightly out of focus, or "soft focus", makes it harder to see our wrinkles.

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention, it was 1:30 in the morning.

Gave up on that.

I found a willing subject....well, that may not be quite accurate, but I found if I let Dex watch the video "the wheels on the bus",  I got 3 minutes of uninterrupted shutter snapping!  (I may have pushed replay a few times)

I am pretty happy about these pictures! 

Not that they are great pictures, but check out how sharp the focus on his eye closest to the camera is!

When it's enlarged, you can see every eyelash.

That made me happy! 

Day 26

Day 26

We got to hang out with Caitlyn and Dex tonight.  Janna gave Caitlyn this loveseat, so we went and moved it into her apartment.  (well, Dean and Caitlyn moved it into her apartment, Dex and I tried to stay out of the way) Apparently Caitlyn was a little more excited about it than Dex was.
