Fun with a Sketch Picture Machine

We took these pictures at a photo booth that does sketches at our friend Candace's birthday. It was an impossible task for us both to look at the camera and smile at the same time so we took goofy sketches instead.


My hot hubby playing the guitar

Last Sunday I took some pictures of Pete playing the guitar after church. One of his many talents is singing and playing the guitar. I love listening and watching him play the guitar; he is adorable!
He started teaching me how to play the guitar. I am learning to play and sing a Faith Hill song. It is fun playing the guitar and singing together, even though I am really bad at both! (maybe I will improve with practice) :)





Spring Break

Since I work at the University, Pete and I both had a week off for spring break the week before Easter. We mostly just relaxed by renting movies and hanging out at our apartment. We also worked on our business a little and went running at night.
The Friday before Easter was a beautiful day so we decided to have a picnic at the park. We went to Riverwalk Park which has a nice view of the Black Warrior River. We had sandwiches and juice and soaked up the sun for a little while. It was fun to get out of the house and enjoy the beautiful weather. The weather has been pretty nice here lately. It will get super hot and humid within the next 2 months so we are trying to enjoy the nice days while we can!

Inspiring

I just wanted to post this video to share with others because I thought it was inspiring. This guy has pancreatic cancer and only has months to live. This is a reprise of his last lecture. It puts things in perspective!

Watch Randy Pausch on Oprah (10 Minute Version)

Or

His full lecture to his students at the university (1 hour and 15 minutes)
