troubles...
does anyone have as much trouble as I do with uploading photos and positioning them in a new blog post? I've been trying to position my thanksgiving photos the past hour and can't get them the way I want them! agh!
thanksgiving, finally :)
thanksgiving location: grandma's and grandpa's house
football throwin', hula-hooping, delicious food,
aunts and uncles, grandparents and parents
cousins and siblings, lots of laughter, picture-taking
front porch sittin', and much thanks felt.
I can say this--my sis and I mastered the art of hula-hooping this thanksgiving!

day-before-Thanksgiving
I think...
we should all post
at least one photo
of our Thanksgiving festivities!
So, the days following Thanksgiving,
post and share what you did
with your family/friends. :)

Pic(k) of the Week:
What is this strangely decorated place you ask? It's Gip's Place...a legendary blues joint in the middle of nowhere Bessemer. It's literally a shack in this older gentleman's backyard and they have shows about twice a month. From the outside it looks like a broken down dairy shed with a faint glow coming from through the plastic-ed openings. Open the door and you are greeted with the picture above and lively tunes from the make-shift stage. It's byob and the mix of people is quite...eclectic. It feels like you just stepped into another world. It was so magical, when I woke up the next morning I thought it had all been a dream...

Sun Up, Coffee Back.
We had a miniature meeting of VC at Urban Standard today. Lori, Jennifer, and I met for a lovely little breakfast this morning. The sun was casting long shadows across our tables and coffee cups...
Nothing says Lori Fine like a little mint green nail polish...love it Lor!

Okay so, there's a website I've just begun to explore: http://www.save-on-crafts.com/. It has creative, inexpensive crafts to buy, but also a great place to get decorating ideas--especially crafts you can use for different seasons/events!
On the other hand, ever heard of Blue Like Jazz by Donald Miller? Well...currently a movie is in the making for this book! http://www.bluelikejazzthemovie.com/. Occasionally there is a call for "extras." One of the things on my list to "do before I die" is to be an extra in a movie. So if there is any interest in taking a trip to Nashville at the last minute when there is a call for extras, then you are welcome to join me because this is a cool movie to be an extra in! :) They just had a call for extras on 11-7-10...which I missed. Hopefully there will be more opportunities soon! :)

Car Show.
The Forest Park/South Avondale Merchants and Neighborhoods all hosted a car show at Avondale Park on Saturday...now when I think "car show," I think muscle cars and a bunch of guys in Top Gun get-up with stereos up all competing for the coolest radio mix award. Thankfully, my expectations were sorely out of proportion. These were all mostly grandfatherly-age men showing off their impeccably restored
antique vehicles. And they were
beautiful:
