Nanowrimo

I just signed up to write a novel in a month and am wondering why? I have never been one of those frustrated writers who felt like I had a story that needed to be told, especially a made up story. I prefer 100 word blurbs on blogs that go along with 6 cute pictures of my kids. Anyway, I have a number of girlfriends who are all set to write their novels and so I signed up. Honestly, I am not expecting much, but I hope to at least finish with the required 50,000 words. Keep me accountable blog friends. I do at least want to see what I can do.

A Few More Favorites

Here are my last few favorite pictures from Hawaii.

Todd and Wylie

I just love these two goofy little boys.

Jacy's Turn

Tonight was Jacy's turn to meet one of his favorite authors, Vince Flynn. Jacy has been enjoying Flynn's Mitch Rapp series for the past year and was thrilled to be able to listen to Flynn talk about the books and chat with him a bit. It was exciting to me too and now I am off to my bed to read a few chapters in my first Vince Flynn book.

Underwater Adventure

Jacy and I bought an underwater camera for our snorkeling adventure last week in Oahu. We weren't expecting much from our photos and we did learn that it is hard to take pictures of people who are moving around in the water. However, I was pleasantly surprised to find a couple of pictures on our roll that I really love. If only the photo disc from Costco would let me flip Jacy and Todd so they aren't upside down on the computer!
