I was inspired by reading a friend's blog about how in the new year everyday she wanted to read more, pray, take a photo etc. The "take a photo" struck me and I thought that's a great idea and since I love photography it's a great way to keep me motivated and capture something new! So I started this on 1/5/11 & I reached a year on 1/4/12 & although I don't post everday all the time I still post when something catches my eye & I want to share it!

Take a Picture - Day 323 - Most wonderful time of the year!
The title of today's blog usually refers to a Christmas song, but for me its the day when the best movie of the year comes out.......The Muppets! So here is Kermit dressed up as a Pilgrim (that I found on eBay a few years ago) to celebrate the release lol!

Take a Picture - Day 318 - Taking it 1 Holiday at a time
Usually this time of year the Christmas decorations come in full force around town and in stores. I was visiting my mom the other day & her town already had Christmas decorations on the street lights. I mean its not even thanksgiving yet!
I always feel like Thanksgiving is the forgotten holiday sometimes because as soon as Halloween is over & those decorations come down ( & get marked down 50%) immediately the Christmas decorations come out.
Well when I was driving on Main St in Lodi today I was shocked to find that they their street lights were decorated with Happy Thanksgiving signs with various images of turkeys (as seen in my photo), cornucopias, & Pilgrims hats. So I applaud Lodi for taking it one Holiday at time & not rushing the holidays!

Take a Picture - Day 310 (11-10-11) - Fall Leaves
I realized that I have not taken any fall leaves pictures yet, been on a blogging hiatus & also had some computer issues yesterday. So luckily I had some leafy variety right outside my door!
I love how the grey sky makes the colors pop!

Take a Picture - Day 283 (10-14-11) - Maize
Last night Tom & I went to a corn maze with my friend Laura in Sussex county. Its now become a tradition of ours every year around this time to go and for me to wear a wig & tom to wear the afro wig, in which a lot of people ask him if that is his real hair or not!

Today's pic of the day comes from me just using my pen which lights up blue (which u can see in the bottom right) as a flash light in my kitchen & noticed how it made the Palmolive all of the sudden look like antifreeze. The glow is also kinda fitting too since the Halloween season is upon us now!

Take a Picture - Day 254 - Chew on this
Tonight a friend of ours came to our house to drop of a DVD (Coming to America) that he was letting us borrow. He also happens to work or a company that makes gum & had some boxes of gum that he was allowed to take home & let me take what I wanted. I think this supply will last me about 6 months maybe???
