My week in photos :: Week 14

Welcome to the first week of (my) April. I say "my" because due to my procrastinator tendencies, I am uploading my April photos at the end of September. So, welcome to My April!

French toast. It’s what’s for breakfast. 🍞

The closer I get to the other side of that hill, the more I find that filters become a necessity. 💕

My week in photos :: Week 13

I seem to be very short on photos for this last week in March. Which actually seems to be my new normal around here. Long gone are those days (years) of me taking a photo-a-day.

One thing that bothers me about where I work, is the parking. It takes longer to find a parking space than it does for me to drive there. 🚧

My week in photos :: Week 12

This week was all about the food, apparently. Oh and my absolute favorite, sunsets! ❤️


Monday

Nothing like finding out that the Gift Shop is selling donut holes that just happen to be 75% off. (A whole 25 cents per container! 😱) Donut holes for everyone! 🍩

This week's photos actually include kitty photos. Something that surprisingly has been missing from this blog lately.

Enjoy the cuteness. 🐱

Off to a slow start on this particular morning. It was only Tuesday and my 2nd day going back to work since my Disney vacation and I was already ready for the weekend. 💤

Disneyland in seconds

One of my favorite apps to use on my phone is the 1 Second Everyday app.

This app was perfect for putting together a short little video of all the video snippets I took while on my trip to Disneyland, earlier this year. You can see said video below.



I have also used the app for the past 2 years to create a yearly video of my daily video snippets and I  am currently working on the video for my 3rd year.

I have pasted my One Second Everyday videos below, in case you want to see them.


2017




2016




I really do enjoy using the 1 Second Everyday app. If you like yearly 365 day type projects, then this app would be perfect for you. I kind of sound like an advertisement, don't I. I have no investment in the app, I just really have fun with the app and want others to have fun with it too.

My week in photos :: Week 10 (part two)

On the second day of our trip, we went to Disney California Adventure. We had never been there before and it didn't even exist the last time we were both at Disneyland. I really would like to return some day. I actually enjoyed it much more than Disneyland, even though half of the park was closed for renovation.


Tuesday

Our first time at Disney California Adventure

March 6: Our first time at Disney California Adventure. The last time I was here, California Adventure was still a parking lot. We had just gotten off our first ride of the day, Grizzly River Run (a whitewater rafting ride and my new favorite) and we were SOAKED! Perfect time for a picture. 🐻🌊

Probably one of my favorite photos from this trip. I was just walking along and snapped the photo on the sly. My phone was at my side and I had no idea what kind of photo I was taking.📱


Yeah. I didn’t ride that. Nope! No way! 😬

The End.

My week in photos :: Week 10 (part one)

This week, I went on my first vacation trip in over 10-years. The husband won a trip to Disneyland last year at his holiday work party and we couldn't wait to go. The last time I went to Disneyland was back in the 80's. The place is looking a bit different now-a-days.

There are so many photos (and videos too) from this week, way too many to share in just one post.


Sunday


After driving the entire day, we finally made it to California. We checked into the hotel and took a walk in search of dinner. We settled on Bubba Gump. We don’t have them in AZ and the husband had never eaten there before. 🍤

I had hoped that the flowering trees would still be in bloom when we got to Disneyland and I was not disappointed. There were still a few left! 🌸

My week in photos :: Week 9

Not many pictures were taken this week. I was busy getting ready for my first vacation in decades while trying to get caught up at work. All of this meant lots of caffeine was a necessity. Good thing my work now has a Starbucks.


Tuesday

Hello, Starbucks. Please, take my money. 😜

One last Target run before our trip. Followed by a quick and easy dinner.

Look! There’s a little matching car picture on the dash. Cars are so fancy now-a-days. My poor 2000 Honda is so basic compared to this 2018 rental. 🚘

Changes?

All my blog photos are hosted on Flickr.

Flickr has been sold to SmugMug.

Hopefully, nothing changes with this blog once SmugMug takes over Flickr at the end of May.

So, if you show up one day and there are no longer any pictures on the blog, then you will know what happened.

Better late than never, right?

Thank you for watching.

My week in photos :: Week 8

This week was pretty flowery.


Sunday

One of these days the backyard will be something more than just a place to take pictures of clouds and sunsets and shoes. 📷
