Snow Day

Well, it's doesn't snow in South Carolina everyday.  Thus I deemed it appropriate and absolutely necessary to go outside at least THREE times today.

First, I went with my best mate Cathy Hardin to go and get in touch with our artistic side.  The results weren't too terrible considering it was my first time using my new camera.  Here's my favourite shot from my first session.


I really like taking up close and personal shots.  Probably because I love knowing the little details of everything.  Cathy on the other hand loves the "big picture," so I took this picture just for her.


This also was a running theme throughout our tundra expedition as she was always a quarter of a mile ahead of me.  Probably because she wanted to get to a warmer place as soon as possible!

Next, I went and hung out with my friends at the Honors College.  They're a year younger than me but we all went to Governor's School together.  So we's pretty tight. This was a really cute "blurry" shot of "all of us" trying to fit into my camera screen.  I kind of love that it's not perfect  :)


After that, I headed back to Bates House, where I promised my residents we would go and have a snow fight of our own.  I had nine residents come in total with the max at any one point being seven.  But four of my girls made it their mission to take on the entire bystander world.  They hid and hunted and successfully hi-jinked every boy that crossed their path.  And I'm proud to say that "Bates House Girls: 1, Innocent Bystanders: 0." 


These are my really awesome residents, posing with their weapons of choice.

So that was my day today.  Nothing to insightful other than the fact I had a lot of FUN today.  And I can't remember the last time I just went out and acted like a kid for a change.  It was awesome, and I definitely brushed the dust off my camera.

Hopefully, I can get back into the swing of things as I'd much rather brush snow off my camera than dust.  Happy Snow Day!!!
