OPC - Day 5 "From a High Angle"

This is what the view looks like from our 3rd floor apartment at 7:50 PM after a very long day.


Photo Specifics:
Sony a33 on Auto+ mode, it selected Night View Slow Shutter (gracias, camera)
THIS is the crap I don't get but would love to learn:
ISO 1250, F3.5 1.3"
Info on the long day (stop reading if you don't care...waaa waaa waaa below):  
  1. Remember that test I asked you all to wish me well on? (thanks, BTW) Well I'm going to have to ask you to retract your well-wishes or, at least, hold those thoughts :( I stayed up and studied (read: crammed) for that test, arrived at the base education office right on time and confidently walked into the...uh...dark classroom this morning?!? Yea, test was Tuesday morning so I totally missed it...oh stop, I can just see all of you out there who know me just shaking your head (Jace)...so freaking typical, I know. So anyway, guess the silver lining is I have more time to study now...rescheduled for the 11th. 
  2. Had a hair appointment scheduled for 6:00 PM tonight. I freaking LOVE to get my hair done so I seriously look forward to these appointments when they come along. Had a meeting that started at 4:45 PM and...well I think you can tell where I'm taking this one. Found myself waving goodbye to the gates of Hanscom at 6:45 PM. Hairstylist not happy with me GUARANTEED. There goes that referral savings I have waiting for me...
  3. I got home so late that Smallz was already in bed - this is the first time I've had this happen since being back to work and it isn't a great feeling :(
Headed to the freezer to decompress with some malted milk ball gelato...wouldn't want to leave the bacon I had for lunch all alone in my coronary arteries. Ok I'm done - new day tomorrow! PEACE

Introducing...Easton Douglas Anders!

Easton Douglas Anders - 3 days old More pictures @ http://www.our365.com/ He's here, he's here!!!  Jace and I welcomed our son Easton Douglas to the world this past Saturday, April 16th at 4:22 PM and we couldn't be more proud.  It was an awesome experience...not so much in the "incredibly cool, can't wait to do it again" context but genuinely in AWE of how mother nature and modern medicine can work together to ease a woman and efficiently deliver a baby.  Before I tell you all a little bit about our story (again, no worries, I won't blast all the nitty gritty across your screen) I must say a HUGE thank you to our staff at Winchester Hospital.  Though I know not a single of of those doctors, nurses and other staff members will read this they will forever hold a special place in our hearts for the outstanding service and love they showed all three of us!!  They exceeded any expectations Jace and I might have had and just had to throw that out there. ...

My Bachelorette Weekend

Jace has been in MN since Thursday braving the cold with  Team Franchise at the 2011 US Pond Hockey Championship .  The team made it to Sunday again this year but unfortunately couldn't get by the "Pulled Hammies" this morning to advance to the finals.  Better luck next year, boys! :( So, since he's been gone I've been catching up on projects around the homestead since it's been so damn cold outside.  On Thursday night I scanned in about 80 old family photos that I had received over the years from my Aunt Kathleen.  I decided to do this because I'm building an online baby book for mini-Ma$e and you can add pictures - thought it'd be fun to add some old family photos.  Anyway, I won't overload you with too many but here are some of my favorites...the rest can be viewed here . Moving on... Friday started off with another snowstorm - excellent.  Hanscom was open for business...well, that is, for everyone ex...

Trunk or Treat 2013

We just got back from Trunk or Treating at Easton's daycare...how flippin' fun (and pretty roarsome as Henry Hugglemonster would say). Mr. Blondie waiting for the trunk or treating to begin! Still figuring out that the chocolate must be unwrapped first. No hurry to explain :) Homeless Lion with a Market Basket bag. Score one for the parents. Some pretty creative pumpkins!
