This is a kite that waved and the confetti that floated above Disneyland’s Main Street during a ceremony for two Disney legends– Richard and Robert Sherman. Two pretty remarkable men you’ve probably never heard of, but who wrote the soundtrack to many of your childhood memories. You can read my full story here. ***** While […]
Best Shot Monday: Anaheim Ducks
The theme for Tracey Clark’s Best Shot Monday this week is “I **heart** These Faces” and I easily chose this one of Anaheim Ducks players, Teemu Selanne, Jason Blake, Saku Koivu and a boy who is receiving treatment for cancer at CHOC Hospital. I took the photo last night while I was doing a […]
Lunch with a friend
It’s one of those funny ironies in life that one of the most important aspects of our lives, one of the biggest blessings, one of the things you treasure the most–friendships–usually spring from seemly insignificant experiences, inane common interests or sometimes just dumb luck. The first friend I ever made online, right after I started […]
‘Butterflies and zebras and moonbeams and fairy tales’
Emily and I fooling around today on the lawn. This song came on in her room as she was falling asleep and I was editing the photo. It’s like a child’s lullaby when you look at it that way and if you know Emily, it’s the perfect song for her. Little Wing Well she’s walking […]
Pictures in Wonderland: The Filling Station
This is my photo for Orange County Daily Photo this week. This shiny Rolls Royce was sitting in front of The Filling Station in Old Towne Orange just begging to get its picture taken. If you haven’t eaten at The Filling Station yet, you’ve got to get down there while the weather is still nice, […]
“You don’t always have to hold your head, higher than your heart”
I'm going to take a week break from blogging to get this summer jump-started. We aren't taking vacation this year, but we plan on roller skating, making some art with chalk, catching the $1 movies, celebrating Emily's 8th birthday, and exploring on the beach. It's going to be awesome! See you next week. ❇❇❇❇❇❇❇ […]
Have a great Memorial Day Weekend. ✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧ Earth, Wind and Fire "That's the way of the World." "Don't hesitate, cause the world seems cold. Stay young at heart ‘cause you’re never, never old at heart"
Is this a Major Award, or is it just me?
This might be one of those, “Is it just me?” things, I’ve been having those a lot lately, but this art in the middle of the front room window reminds me of that scene in “A Christmas Story” when the dad wins a leg lamp–a Major Award. It does look Frag-il-e. This is […]
Skywatch Orange County: Mickey confetti
Disneyland really is filled with magic moments, you just have to know where to look. "It's magic, I know. Never believe it's not so." ✻✻✻✻✻✻✻ For SkyWatch Friday. If you would just love to see what the sky looks like from all over the world, go here. Hundreds of people do each week.
Pictures in Wonderland: Hey, there Mr. Blue
I haven't been feeling blue, but when I downloaded my pictures from the last few days there was a theme: They were all steeped in these blues. The top picture are some shop fronts in Costa Mesa, the far right is the Edison Power Plant in Huntington Beach (see Martha's post about them here) and […]
