7 for Sunday

It’s been quite a while since I did one of these, so here’s a new one.

1. It’s really unfortunate that Tom Cruise went off the deep end. He’s so nice to look at, but now I can’t look at him without thinking ‘oh, he’s craaaaaaaaazy’. (this thought occured while flipping channels and finding Mission Impossible 3 on).

2. The application forms for passports are quite tedious to fill out, especially when having to do 4 of them. Gotta get all those ducks in a row for the wedding in Jamaica in May. Really looking forward to that trip!!

3. I love going on Facebook and seeing so many of my friends/clients with a profile picture that I took. Just makes me happy.

4. Our Disney trip was so, so fun! A whole week with the Mouse (and as an added bonus, friends of ours from town were at Disney the exact same dates, on the same flight down, and at the same hotel as us- and we didn’t even plan it!) and it was still not enough. Hit all the parks (except Animal Kingdom- not our favorite) and had a blast. All the boys did the Pirates League where you dress up as a pirate with makeup and everything, and we had both sets of grandparents join us for little bits of the trip. Timmy was finally tall enough to ride lots of the ‘good’ rides and he loved them! And although we didn’t win the Cinderella Castle Suite again (actually, they’re not giving that away anymore either) it was definitely one of the best Disney trips we’ve had. And it was our first trip with the Disney Vacation Club- so great!! Lots and lots of pictures and video to come soon. I brought along my new flip video camera and am slowly figuring out how to edit video. You know, in my free time.

Here are a few randoms from Disney (just the first few I’ve edited). Love this picture of Timmy. Looks like he’s giving me the finger, right? Actually, he’s just using his jedi mind powers to choke me. Much better. Some great ones of Patrick too, and some favorites of my boys.

5. I’ve really been enjoying the Olympics, but am still totally at a loss regarding Curling. And I tend to watch it for long periods of time just cause I think all of a sudden I’ll just GET it. But that has yet to happen. Is it shuffleboard on ice? Is it like darts? Do they wear special shoes? And really, WHY is it an Olympic sport? It’s kinda oddly mesmorizing.  Any help on this is more than welcome. But, on the same token I have to say that I really love short track speed skating- omg, so edge of your seat exciting!

6. Getting so excited to head back to Florida on Thursday-Sunday with my college roommate, Robin. Just us girls, just for the weekend for sun, a University of Miami visit, relaxation, massages, sushi/seafood handrolls at Taisho, and some South Beach fun. Can’t wait!! (and yes, I do realize I just got back from Florida. Twice. But I’m not going anywhere else after this trip until Jamaica in May. I know, waaaa.)

7. I really, really have to get myself the iphone. I was waiting to pick one up when they switched over to Verizon but that really dosen’t look like it’s happening anytime soon. So when my contract is up this summer, I’m going iphone I think. I’ll ask for everyone’s favorite apps so keep a list ready for me, ok?

Hope you all had a great weekend. Off to NJ this morning for a newborn shoot and then a mini this afternoon that’s local. Then really looking forward to dinner tonight with some of my girls and movies for Shutter Island.
