Playing with Photoshop

I don't have interesting things running through my head to blog about daily, nor do I have fictional friends to blog about and where they've been on vacation and what family reunions they've attended and weddings they've been to...etc, etc. But there is a person who thinks I need to update my blog because the last post is just WAY too old. SO, this person who thinks I need to update my blog will just have to settle for something far less interesting....PHOTOSHOP! woot woot! (I'm not naming any names, ahem, but if you don't care to read on, you may want to go here to read about THIS PERSON and their fictional friend.)

ANYWAY, I got some new applications for Photoshop and was playing around with some, so just thought I'd share before and afters of some pics from my Europe trip last year. They give a little bit of an antique/old school feel. I heart Photoshop! :)





Before and after of a little restaurant in Garmisch, Germany.





Along the River Seine, Paris, France.





A lovely lamp post in Venice, Italy.





Shannon took this pic on her iPhone of me going to the "toilettes" in a train station. Verona, Italy. I guess I wasn't going alone.... :)




The Notre Dame Cathedral, Paris, France.




An apartment building and street sign, Paris, France.




And last...one of the greatest sights I've EVAH seen...the Eiffel Tower, Paris, France.

Baby Laughing

I know this is a couple of years old, but I have to watch it every once in a while because it's so cute!

Hmmm....

I think I am suffering from bloggers block. There is not one interesting thing floating around in my head. Well, besides TALKING IN ALL CAPS AND COLONOSCOPIES. Other than that, NOTHING. ZILCH. Not that I'm having a colonoscopy. So flush that idea out of your mind.

But seriously...nothing wonderful to blog about lately. So I will just leave you with a random picture and I hope everyone is having a grand week. Cheerio!

Support Sasha

I am posting a link about a friend of a friend. My friend told me this story and asked me to pray for Sasha Denman. She was severely burned a little over a week ago when a gel candle/bowl of some sort blew up and ignited her face, neck and arms. You can read her story and get updates at www.supportsasha.blogspot.com.

You May Have to Kiss A Lot of Frogs.....

....Before you find that prince! :)

Kaspri took Jeremy & Rebecca's engagements a couple of weeks ago. We went to the Dallas Arboretum, which is beautiful, and then to the mustangs in Las Colinas. We had a great day hanging out and having fun. Rebecca told me last night that she keeps checking my blog to see if I've posted any of their pics (we've been a little busy and they've not seen any of the pics yet). We are still editing some, but here's a few that I like. Enjoy, Rebecca...and BTW, I think the "frog" pic turned out cute. Glad we found them! :)

A Random Picture

See...I come by it honestly. :)

First Photos of Before/After Face Transplant

I found this very interesting and touching. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/30586321/wid/11915773?GT1=31037 If you scroll down through the story, there's a picture of what Connie Culp looked like before her injury. She was called a monster by a child and is quoted:
“When somebody has a disfigurement and don’t look as pretty as you do, don’t judge them, because you never know what happened to them,” she said. “Don’t judge people who don’t look the same as you do. Because you never know. One day it might be all taken away.”

AMEN!
