WELCOME FEBRUARY!


Went to Costco today, they’ve got their “early spring lawn care” products out. “I DO believe in spring. I DO believe in spring. IdoIdoIdoIdo I DO believe in spring.”


However, since spring isn’t here yet, why don’t we warm our hearts a little?


“Love is a many-splendored thing, love lifts us up where we belong, all you need is love . . .”


“Love is just a game.”


Well then, let’s play a little game, shall we?


My game is called Illustrating Love. Over the next few weeks, my camera will not be collecting dust on a shelf in its bag because I’m determined to capture a few moments in my life that illustrate “love.” I am going to *attempt* to post a new photo every day by midnight until Valentine’s Day. The first one is a rather cliche Blast from the Past: my wedding.

Love is: Marrying me despite the following facts:

  1. I chose the tackiest, cheesiest, backyard fence lattice background that I could find to spruce up the church gym for our pictures.
  2. I made you sit in that silly chair and hold my flowers.
  3. I didn’t even hire a photographer to capture the Most Important Day of our lives on film.
  4. I wore acrylic nails on our wedding day . . .
  5. . . . but I still looked like a boy in a dress.


Come on, friends, join the fun! Get out your cameras, browse your old photos, and post pictures of love from your own lives. It’ll be a hoot.


Anybody (besides Sara) who can tell me the two movies to which I referred gets an A+++++++++. (I guess that makes three movies.) Also, if you don’t see your name or blog on my sidebar, add a comment with a link to your blog so that I can click over and see what you came up with.
