Moon Clouds

This was taken from my Mom's driveway...I went out one night to take out the trash and saw this beautiful moon hanging over her roof.

Christmas Squirrel

My boyfriend absolutly loves squirrels...and I saw this last weekend while shopping with my BFF for some Christmas gifts. As a testament to how I have adjusted my ways to accomodate this wretched economy, I normally would have bought this puppet (looks so real!) no questions asked...but instead I carried it around the store...then took it to the cashier to see if the price was a mistake or maybe it was on sale...then I left it behind. Two days later I took him to see it and we took pictures of it because cute as it is...we weren't spending $30 on it..at least I got to see the look on his face when he saw it...priceless!

Christmas Lights

This is my Mom's Christmas tree...it's the most beautiful tree I've ever seen. She puts so many lights on it...it's a heat source all on it's own! Below are a few more pictures that I took of the tree...I really like abstracts and I love how these came out!

Pantheon Dome

Another view of the Pantheon dome. This is one of my favorite places in Rome...actually I have alot of favorite places there...perhaps it's safe just to call Rome one of my favorite places :o)

London Eye

This is the London Eye, a wheel constructed for the Millienium and was so popular they kept it in operation. The little barrels that you see are actually capsuls that about 10-15 people can stand inside during the slow ride around the wheel. I am afraid of heights...I get really anxious...but there was NO way I was going to go to London and not get on the Eye...so on I went. In the middle of the capsul there's a bench...I spend my time on the bench clutching the sides, but the view was spectacular and well worth it. I'd do it again in a heart beat...even if it skipped a few times :o)
