The last four or five words of the very last quote of the page is the title of your first album.

3 - Go to flickr and click on “explore the last seven days”
or click http://www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days



Third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.

4 - Use photoshop or similar to put it all together. (for those of you non-designers, you can even use Word)

5 - Post it to the FB notes section with this text in the "caption" and TAG the friends you want to join in.
This is mine.
Iron Bridge.
Just get used to them.
I thought the quote I got was funny the full thing was: "In mathematics you don't understand things. You just get used to them." ~Johann Von Neumann
Which is very true in my case.

Winter

So I know I am really late posting these but I just got them off the camera so here we go.

This first one is looking at the side of my apartment complex.


Yup that is my car under there.Walking out the front door.


The cars.

A new twist on an old favorite.

So I was reading the New York Times the other day and most of the things in it are irrelevant to me because well they are in New York and I am not. But I came across something on the foods pages of it. There is a peanut butter sandwich restaurant in New York! They have all kinds of really weird sounding sandwiches but some of them sound very tasty. Check out their website.

And here is the menu!

I thought this was kind of cool and really fun.

Driving to Moscow.

I drive to Moscow a lot and I have always found the drive very beautiful so I thought I would share a few pictures I have taken on our trips.

This first one is a picture of the drive from Deary.

Two more of that side of Moscow.
This is part of the drive from Coeur D'Alene.

And finally a few more recent ones of when I driving back from Christmas

Hammys!

So for Christmas last year I got 2 dwarf hamsters. One of them got sick and died a few months later. I had a hard time finding another little friend for mine. I just happened to go the the pet store one day looking for new shells for my hermit crabs and amazingly enough they had dwarf hamsters! I bought one to be friends with the one I had, I told the guy at the pet store to make sure she was a girl because I didn't want babies so he double checked. When I got home I found out hamsters are very territorial. Because I only had 1 cage I had to improvise to find somewhere for the hamster to live since my original one Siggy and it didn't get along. I ended up using one of the plastic drawers in a little plastic dresser thing we have. I came home one day and went about feeding and watering the animals and noticed the bedding moving in the drawer. The pet store had given me a girl but she was pregnant and we didn't find out till she had the babies.

All together she had 8 of them. Needless to say for about 4 months I had mass amounts of hamsters. Unfortunaly hamster will start breeding again about 4 weeks after they are born so I had to go get another cage to seperate the boys from the girls. so at this point 2 of the babies had passed so we had 8 left the mom, Siggy and 6 babies. Luckly I found a good home for all of them except two. I kept one and gave one to my friend Melissa.

Mine is the little grey one munching on the top of the chip. Melissas is the white and grey one next to it.

Adventures in Cooking!

I have been cooking a lot recently and buying new cookbooks going through them and making what ever looks yummy. Here are a few of my masterpieces!

First off Moroccan Chicken Pot Pie!
This is a really yummy and easy recipe.


Next is Chicken and Orzo soup.

This is a really good Chicken noodle soup with lots of veggies in it. I couldn't find orzo pasta so we used regular twisty pasta but it was really good.
This is a picture of it and the cookbook I got the recipe out of and some really good roasted bell pepper bread fresh from the co-op.Next is Frittata.


And finally with my New crockpot I got for Christmas we made BBQ beef.

Tahoe

Ok so I finally decided not to be lazy and get the pictures from FOREVER off the camera. So here we go! First off Tahoe! We had a great week long vacation in Tahoe thanks to our friend Jeff and his family.
This is Justin having fun on the first beach we went to. I was working inside all summer so I was really white and we went to this beach for maybe half an hour and I had a jacket on with long short sleeves if that makes any sense, anyways I got horribly burn that first day and in some of the pictures you can see it kind of on my arms.

This is the condos we stayed at and they were awesome we spent time in the hot tubs every day, cooked yummy food every night, and spent a lot of time with good friends :)
This is the hot tub and I have decided when I have a house it will have a hot tub and I will spend time in it when ever I can. They are great for stress relief.


This it the beautiful view from where we stayed it was so pretty there.
Another beach we visited. This was a great beach. It wasn't very crowded and the water was so clear.
The seagulls on the beach and of course Katie chasing them :D
We went and visited the town quite a bit and I got to have Coldstone! This is a really cool fountain that was at a really awesome art musium that we stopped by and walked around inside.We ate at a little bar and grill near our condos the Fox and the hound I think and these are a few pictures of there.

I thought was funny because we were watching the olympics on the tv there and I got Katie and Riley looking very interested.


This last one is one of on our drive home. There is a little town named Rome on the way and all it had in it was a gas station which is pictured.
As for the rest I think I will post them all tomorrow.
