29th Year • Week One

On the 12th I turned 29 (eek!) Part journal  part photography project, I will try to post weekly with my past week in photos. With a new camera in hand and a desire to document my last year as a 20-something here is my first week.

Here are my 7 favorites from this week:
Kyle, Kevin & Charlie headed to my Birthday Dinner

Hibachi for Hilary's Birthday Dinner

Blowing out the candle

Messy Monkey Man

Sexiest Kitty

Dac's 1st Photo Shoot

Lupines

Went to my birthday dinner on Monday with Mom, Grandma, Kevin, Charlie & Kyle at Mara's restaurant  We had her as our server, which was just not nice for Charlie so Kyle ended up taking him home. It was a great time with mom, Kevin & Grandma though. My favorite part was when Kevin was reading Grandma the dessert menu and he got to the end which had "That 70's Cake" listed. Grandma asked what was in it, Kevin quickly replied, "I bet it's made with marijuana." Grandma quickly responded, "Well I bet that's popular." One of the photos from my dinner made it into the top 7 -- Charlie is too cute grabbing Kyle (Daddy) and Kevin's (uncle Kebin) hands and counting to three, prompting them to swing him. See more photos from my B-day Dinner.

My College roommate Hilary also had a birthday this week. She had a "Not-so-Dirty-Thirty" Party at a hibachi grill in Biddeford. I arrived late but we still had a good time! Three of the photos from this made it into my top 7.  See more photos from Hilary's Party.

After Hilary's Party I went to my sister's house to play with her new kitty, Pterodactyl, Dac for short. Two of the photos from the mini Kitty shoot that evolved are listed in my top 7. A friend on FB commented that the one with him climbing out of the rope basket could be the cover on GQ's sexiest Kitten issue. See more photos from Dac's Photo Shoot.

I also started & finished a crochet project this week. It was a pink owl for Hilary for her birthday. See photos of the Owl.

On Sunday Kevin & I went out to his dad's for a father's day lunch. My other two nephews were there as well as Kevin's two sisters, brother & sister-in-law and a bunch of dogs, including Kevin's sister's service (super) dog Moxie -- Read this article that came out this past weekend about Christy being awarded with USA Hockey's Disabled Athlete of the Year. I am so proud to call her my sister-in-law! Here are more photos from our Father's Day Lunch.

Also have a handful of snapshots from this week. One of which made it into the top 7. See more snapshots.

That's all for this week, see you all next week!
