Where’s Mom? (21 of 52)

February 4, 2010

This week, Mom is being sneaky. Here’s a beautiful black and white picture for you:

Because after a long day at work, Mom deserves to have a black and white picture posted on the blog. Color just wasn’t cutting it… even with the help of my friend Picnik.

Michael and I were working on Jack’s valentines. They are adorable!!

Wanna see?

I saw these yesterday morning on Christie’s blog (who got the idea from Alyssa), and we had the picture taken and printed by last night.

Stinkin’ adorable, if you ask me.

Oh, and a computer update – I got my laptop back, upgraded my iPhoto software, and guess what happened?

I got back 352 pictures!!

I have no idea how, or why those photos were the “chosen ones,” and neither does my Mac guy. But I don’t care.  I got ‘em!

Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have some valentines to finish…

Too cute – I’m doing the same valentines for my little guy too except I haven’t quite gotten to where you are. I’m going to work on it during this snow storm. Have a great weekend!

Glad to hear on the photos too! Those Valentines are great! Much better than the 1.99 Mickey Mouse Clubhouse ones I got for Soren, even though I am super excited to find them because it is, after all, his favorite show! Happy Almost Valentine’s Day!

That is the cutest Valentine I’ve ever seen!!! I’m sure I won’t be the only one copying your idea. How did you attach the sucker to the picture? I can’t tell…
