Day 83

5K:

It is on my bucket list to become a runner....there isn't a better way than to start with a 5K that is also for a good cause.

This race was a fundraiser for Rex, an 8 (I think) year old boy who has brain cancer at my church.  They raised over $22,000 to help pay for his medical expenses!  Praise the Lord!  I am glad I could be a part of it.

Cheers to Bowling:


In an attempt to go bowling in Abilene, we ended up 2 1/2 hours away in Fort Worth at Pete's Piano Bar!  To say the least it was a spontaneous weekend and we had a great time!

Day 65

IMPORTANT: 1) I changed the settings so that anyone can post comments, not just gmail people.  So if you feel like commenting, that would be greatly appreciated.  2) It is day 65, that means I have 300 days left...this might feel like forever but I am excited to see how creative I will be able to get!

I'm Dreaming of a White...Texas:


The beautiful plains of Texas covered with white fluffiness.... the funny thing is that literally the whole town shut down because people here just don't know how to deal with snow and ice!   In a way it is kind of awesome cause I didn't have school today!







February 1, 2011 (Happy Birthday Mom!)

Day 64

Storm Rolling In:


I know this looks like nothing, but really it is the early stages of a big storm that rolled into town.  The wind was blowing like crazy and raining!

Day 63

Lake Travis:



On the dock of a friends at Lake Travis, right outside Austin!  It was such a perfect winter get-away!

Day 62

Austin:



I couldn't decide which pic I liked the best so ya'll get to see both!
This is inside TX capitol!  It is such a beautiful building!

I truly fell in love with this city!  It has the eclectic feel of hippies but very urban city full of coffee shops, bicyclists, and art on the street.  I could definitely see myself moving here one day!





This is obviously some of the buildings.  In the words of my friend Ashley "It's like Inception"

Day 61

6th Street:



We went out on 6th Street in Austin!  There are a bunch of roof top bars which just made me fall even more in love with the city.  This city is awesome and a little bit crazy!

Day 60

Happy Birthday:



Happy Birthday Lena!  We didn't have any birthday cake candles so  a big one worked just fine!


(One of my goals for this photo challenge is to get better at taking pictures of people, so this is a start.  If you have any suggestions or tips please let me know)

Ridin' With Jesus:


This is the cross that hangs from my rear view mirror.  It is cheesey but Jesus is riding with me!
