Here's Day SEVEN of #FebPhotoADay Challenge

Buttons, buttons, buttons, buttons! (Meant to be said like Dori in 'Finding Nemo' when she says 'bubbles, bubbles, bubbles) :D

Anywho, today's February photo challenge is about buttons. And you're in for a treat because I have a great photo for this challenge. It's of a frame I made with my grandmother!





My grandmother is an artist, like no lie a professional one. She's also a professional writer of over 20 books; her name is Patricia Bucheister. Yeah, she's pretty amazing. Anyways, back to my story, she is an artist and growing up I use to always go into her art room (which was like a far away land). It was SO COOL. There were so many craft things to do. Paint, pottery, draw and more! So one day while playing in her art room I glued a bunch of buttons to a frame as a craft. I have kept that frame ever since. As you can see here, it now holds my prom photo. Kinda crazy that prom was 10 years ago...wow, where does the time go!

#FebPhotoADay Time Again

It's day five in the February photo challenge and guess what's on the agenda? 10am. What does 10am look like to you? For me, it looks like breakfast time!! :)

Breakfast means Chobani yogurt!

Enjoying it...delicious!
Most mornings I am at work at 10am (DUH) but more than that I am at work eating my breakfast. I have never been a person to eat breakfast before I go to work. It seems too early for me, especially since my mornings are spent running around. So with that, I wait till I go to work. And I can’t just plop myself down and eat as soon as I get to work-nope! I check my email, get situated and usually there is always something that needs to get done asap! So that takes precedence over me eating my yummy and healthy breakfast. So by the time 10am rolls around, I am starved! So I eat my yogurt.

If you’re not familiar with Chobani yogurt you are in for a delight! I’ve always been a fan of yogurt but never tried Greek yogurt. Everything I heard made it seem less than appealing so I just avoided it. My best friend, and health guru, told me over and over again how delicious Chobani was but still I avoided it. It wasn't until my husband, not a health guru at all-in fact he only eats what’s delicious to him, started buying it that I finally got the clue. And boy oh boy I’m glad I did! For little calories, this breakfast item keeps me full for a long time.

And I love all the delicious flavors offered (when you can find them). Here’s my fav in order:

1.    Black Cherry
2.    Raspberry
3.    Strawberry
4.    Blueberry
5.    Pomegranate
6.    Peach/Mango
7.    Strawberry Banana
8.    Pineapple (not last b/c of taste but b/c it’s more calories than the aforementioned items)

As you can see a great variety for any yogurt lover! So there you have it, my 10am looks like breakfast; speaking of which, I’m hungry and will be going to eat now. :)

Time for #FEBPHOTOADAY Challenge

Remember my post about the February Photo Challenge I was going to partake in? Well, today marks the first day!

Day 1: Your View Today



I have to admit that I did not take this photo. My lovely and very talented friend, Jennifer Adams from Jennifer Leigh Photography did. It's a magnificent photo and it speaks to what my view is today....

When I look at this picture, I feel inspired. Like the whole world is open to me. I think about my life and the place I'm in. I think about what kind of person I will continue to be. Will my marriage still be strong in 10 years? Will I ever become a mother? The photo speaks volumes about what the possibilities are inside my life. 

I turn 28 this year and I'm inspired to make it the best year yet! I have so much to look forward too. :)
