So excited for the Myers/Grant nuptials although I can't say I'm excited for the I35 traffic, but hey, let's stay positive! <br /><br />Hope you all have a wonderfully green weekend.

I have long been a fan of the Southeastern United States without actually having <span style="font-style: italic;">been</span> there so getting a reason to visit Taylor <span style="font-style: italic;">and</span> explore an amazing city on my "list" was basically a dream trip. Something about the historical homes, southern drawl and fried food made me feel right at home.<br /><br />We spent our first day on foot and quickly realized (after sweating through our respective outfits) that we needed to change things up a bit. A family Segway adventure was top of the list until a cute little storefront appeared like magic and we were all (read: Steve) spared --> enter the <a style="color: rgb(102, 204, 204);" href="http://www.perryrubberbikeshop.com/">Perry Rubber Bike Shop</a>. We spent the next three days buzzing around town as if we owned the place. I may or may not have cheated death a time or two as my tires skidded out of harm's way but it was <span style="font-style: italic;">so</span> worth it. I think the best part of a vacation is doing things out of your normal routine and touring a city via bike just happened to be one of those. Please be sure to hit up the Perry Rubber Bike Shop if you ever get the chance to visit, they'll treat you right.<br /><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-DapZLik_3f8/T1_FV_TK8SI/AAAAAAAABVc/MD3-ayegrBA/s1600/photo%255B11%255D.JPG"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-DapZLik_3f8/T1_FV_TK8SI/AAAAAAAABVc/MD3-ayegrBA/s320/photo%255B11%255D.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5719507033343586594" border="0" /></a><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-IYJQx-55GX8/T1_Bm7db-hI/AAAAAAAABUs/B118pIXJYUw/s1600/bikes.JPG"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-IYJQx-55GX8/T1_Bm7db-hI/AAAAAAAABUs/B118pIXJYUw/s320/bikes.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5719502926324169234" border="0" /></a><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-asuFppVJjns/T1_Fb2WDNiI/AAAAAAAABVo/1Qb-k9dh9rI/s1600/photo%255B10%255D.JPG"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-asuFppVJjns/T1_Fb2WDNiI/AAAAAAAABVo/1Qb-k9dh9rI/s320/photo%255B10%255D.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5719507134018958882" border="0" /></a>Some of the "must see" activities for any Savannah visitor are touring the historical homes, walking through the Spanish moss-lined parks and shopping the local boutiques. One of my favorite sights included<a style="color: rgb(102, 204, 204);" href="http://www.savannahga.gov/cityweb/p&tweb.nsf/0/1f4da52f3ef4d10685256c5a004a73c9?OpenDocument"> Forsyth Park</a> and its lovely white fountain. It was so big and pretty, a real must-see. We also cooled off with a tour through <a style="color: rgb(102, 204, 204);" href="http://www.andrewlowhouse.com/">Andrew Low's amazing home</a> and shopped at <a style="color: rgb(102, 204, 204);" href="http://www.theparismarket.com/">The Paris Market</a> where I scored the most precious teacup and saucer keepsake, which of course is an essential :). I would also recommend stopping in <a href="http://www.shopredclover.com/"><span style="text-decoration: underline; color: rgb(102, 204, 204);">Red Clover</span></a><span style="color: rgb(51, 204, 0);"> </span>and <a style="color: rgb(102, 204, 204);" href="http://www.shopscad.com/">shopSCAD</a> for a plethora of creative goodies.<br /><br />(As you can see, this was my kind of trip.)<br /><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-u_hVCyfHdsE/T1_BsRJSVcI/AAAAAAAABU4/DVBuLa7t0r8/s1600/fountain.JPG"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-u_hVCyfHdsE/T1_BsRJSVcI/AAAAAAAABU4/DVBuLa7t0r8/s320/fountain.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5719503018044577218" border="0" /></a><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-SUccm8uc4YM/T1_Ft-ooZFI/AAAAAAAABWA/0zNUMW8y6wc/s1600/photo%255B4%255D.JPG"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-SUccm8uc4YM/T1_Ft-ooZFI/AAAAAAAABWA/0zNUMW8y6wc/s320/photo%255B4%255D.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5719507445482021970" border="0" /></a><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ebKpTtjuYp0/T1_FzeEZXDI/AAAAAAAABWM/uvIH4fJ4-Ew/s1600/parismarket.JPG"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ebKpTtjuYp0/T1_FzeEZXDI/AAAAAAAABWM/uvIH4fJ4-Ew/s320/parismarket.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5719507539819322418" border="0" /></a><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-P5IXOMpOxpc/T1_FQNWMxmI/AAAAAAAABVQ/ZC2x5z3ExoY/s1600/photo%255B8%255D.JPG"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-P5IXOMpOxpc/T1_FQNWMxmI/AAAAAAAABVQ/ZC2x5z3ExoY/s320/photo%255B8%255D.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5719506934035170914" border="0" /></a><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-1BGwxPhkMs8/T1_F73q4TwI/AAAAAAAABWY/p6q0XUjWnKE/s1600/photo%255B6%255D.JPG"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-1BGwxPhkMs8/T1_F73q4TwI/AAAAAAAABWY/p6q0XUjWnKE/s320/photo%255B6%255D.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5719507684130574082" border="0" /></a>Anyway, it only made sense that after long days of biking we were free to indulge on amazing <a style="color: rgb(102, 204, 204);" href="http://www.vinnievangogo.com/">pizza</a> (twice!), lunch (& dinner!) at <a style="color: rgb(102, 204, 204);" href="http://www.opentable.com/rest_profile_newdesign.aspx?rid=67366">The Olde Pink House</a>, ice cream at <a style="color: rgb(102, 204, 204);" href="http://www.leopoldsicecream.com/">Leopold's</a> and cupcakes at <a style="color: rgb(102, 204, 204);" href="http://www.backinthedaybakery.com/">Back In The Day Bakery</a> - all of which I would highly recommend. The most notable absence from the list is Paula Deen's The Lady and Sons restaurant which we weren't able to try but have heard wonderful things.

If you are a faithful reader who hasn't deleted me from your Reader by now then you're in for a real treat. I have decided that my blog is a much-needed outlet in my life and I'm bringing it back. If anything, the accountability to take pictures and actually document my life is reason enough to keep it going. <br /><br />So, here we go! On to a new year of wedding bells, first apartments, a brand new roommate and so much more. <br /><br />xoKristenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04429623748878249769noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7740538207173630685.post-55768230716712582962011-09-14T09:58:00.003-05:002011-09-14T10:01:38.970-05:00Good DogI'm pretty sure that if you read anything today it should be <a style="color: rgb(102, 204, 204);" href="http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2011/08/14/magazine/14Mag-rescue-dogs.html?src=tp#1">this</a>.<br /><br />The Dogs of 9/11<br /><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-j_Zf3zvsQ3I/TnDBciLi8SI/AAAAAAAABUI/Tzysv03mmVw/s1600/livesDOGS-slide-4H1Z-custom3.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-j_Zf3zvsQ3I/TnDBciLi8SI/AAAAAAAABUI/Tzysv03mmVw/s320/livesDOGS-slide-4H1Z-custom3.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5652230228305703202" border="0" /></a><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-BlomPHO8Cy8/TnDBkebTKBI/AAAAAAAABUQ/jLWP90d_tv0/s1600/livesDOGS-slide-LW8X-custom1.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-BlomPHO8Cy8/TnDBkebTKBI/AAAAAAAABUQ/jLWP90d_tv0/s320/livesDOGS-slide-LW8X-custom1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5652230364736989202" border="0" /></a><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-GDv_W9u_2-U/TnDBob652UI/AAAAAAAABUY/e2Znn1Ujp1s/s1600/livesDOGS-slide-RJ3C-custom2.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-GDv_W9u_2-U/TnDBob652UI/AAAAAAAABUY/e2Znn1Ujp1s/s320/livesDOGS-slide-RJ3C-custom2.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5652230432783718722" border="0" /></a>Kristenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04429623748878249769noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7740538207173630685.post-13920035502752870432011-08-11T14:32:00.005-05:002011-08-11T14:42:09.580-05:00Move, Eat & LearnCheck out the incredible videos created by STA Travel.

I will remember this as the Summer that I was on The Great Outdoors kick and the sandwich maker knew my order on cue (toast the white bread, make sure the cookie is soft and a small Dr. Pepper) as well as the season that I vowed to make my "working out" more enjoyable by borrowing a bike cruiser and hitting tennis balls against the backboard.<br /><br />Or the Summer that Jake the <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">Havapoo</span> couldn't let go of his little orange toy, Dad got his <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">AARP</span> card and Brad planned more fun date nights. It's no surprise as to why we love Summer over here at Kristen & Co. and I hope that you do too. I will try to document more Summer moments and share with you periodically. Until then, happy days to you all!<br /><br />(And a special happy Father's day to the greatest guy out there - we love you, Dad!)<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-C6yxM6Lm4E8/TfvBRzZYLBI/AAAAAAAABOw/5Im-70mMae0/s1600/photo%255B4%255D.JPG"><img style="display: block;

Not only is Keri Russell one of my all-time favorite girl crushes, but she happens to have amazing taste. Keri, alongside her carpenter husband and muffin son, took their 1800's Brooklyn brownstone from old to amazing.<br /><br />My personal favorite elements are the neutral tones mixed with rustic elegance. From the tufted ottoman to the wooden kitchen, Felicity has done it again. It seems as though I only <span style="font-style: italic;">thought</span> I had grown out of my adoration. But don't worry y'all, I'm not going to go all 2nd season and scalp my hair.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-RUk-9e7R67E/TdU-JIyuEYI/AAAAAAAABNE/XZZR7IB_Wdc/s1600/02-keri-russell-and-family.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 256px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-RUk-9e7R67E/TdU-JIyuEYI/AAAAAAAABNE/XZZR7IB_Wdc/s320/02-keri-russell-and-family.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5608457237659783554" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Bmsqf3aOB5s/TdU-FiLuxtI/AAAAAAAABM8/Fs2WyWUeXzw/s1600/01-keri-russell-brooklyn-home.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 256px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Bmsqf3aOB5s/TdU-FiLuxtI/AAAAAAAABM8/Fs2WyWUeXzw/s320/01-keri-russell-brooklyn-home.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5608457175756097234" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-vEClFA9Ydxc/TdU-aZbkq2I/AAAAAAAABNM/L0ls-n4dlkA/s1600/03-keri-russell-kitchen.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 256px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-vEClFA9Ydxc/TdU-aZbkq2I/AAAAAAAABNM/L0ls-n4dlkA/s320/03-keri-russell-kitchen.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5608457534183877474" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-VPly70gDlbw/TdU_IfiKtMI/AAAAAAAABNU/8kmUGYvbU-k/s1600/04-keri-russell-dining-room.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 256px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-VPly70gDlbw/TdU_IfiKtMI/AAAAAAAABNU/8kmUGYvbU-k/s320/04-keri-russell-dining-room.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5608458326096131266" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-tT9ta-byzAg/TdU_MHKjYuI/AAAAAAAABNc/3Uh5NYwNMF4/s1600/05-keri-russell-bathroom.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 256px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-tT9ta-byzAg/TdU_MHKjYuI/AAAAAAAABNc/3Uh5NYwNMF4/s320/05-keri-russell-bathroom.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5608458388274111202" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-eBA2YOgy8sk/TdU_crdHqLI/AAAAAAAABNk/PA55DrtMoEg/s1600/06-keri-russell-closet.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 256px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-eBA2YOgy8sk/TdU_crdHqLI/AAAAAAAABNk/PA55DrtMoEg/s320/06-keri-russell-closet.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5608458672893569202" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Xnrh7ugSzsc/TdU_f6fgOiI/AAAAAAAABNs/TXe5GGaatog/s1600/07-keri-russell-bedroom.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 256px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Xnrh7ugSzsc/TdU_f6fgOiI/AAAAAAAABNs/TXe5GGaatog/s320/07-keri-russell-bedroom.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5608458728469707298" border="0" /></a>And for old time's sake -<br /><br /><div style="text-align: left;"><iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/bZ-CM3n_P90" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="320" width="375"></iframe><br /></div>Kristenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04429623748878249769noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7740538207173630685.post-71952803734574720472011-05-18T13:38:00.037-05:002011-05-18T14:17:55.134-05:00"What ever happened to predictability?"An ode to San Fran...<br /><br />Oh how I love your pastel buildings stacked on top of one another lined by palm trees on your curvy streets. Your food and wine are delicious, the people are nice, the breeze is refreshing and your sun is intoxicating. The surrounding cities (Berkeley, Sausalito and Napa) were just as wonderful and I'm glad I got to experience them. If someone asked me what my favorite thing was I would be hard-pressed to pick just one. From the Farmer's Market to Napa to City touring, it was the perfect getaway. Cheers to our amazing tour guide and selfless companion, she made it more memorable than anyone else could.<br /><br />I can't wait to luck into another cheap flight and go back.<br /><br />I really tried to narrow the pictures (& videos!) and this is what I came up with. I wouldn't blame you for finishing mid-post.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center; font-style: italic;"><span style="font-size:85%;">(click to enlarge)<br /><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-xfqsyDktDek/TdQTohycVkI/AAAAAAAABI8/VJL6qM7LeTM/s1600/photo%255B3%255D.JPG"><img style="display: block;

I took a long lunch break and wanted nothing more than to sit outside with a good book and soak up the sun. Days like this are addicting.<br /><br />Last night was a great time at the Glenwick casa. Our pinata was a big fat bust thanks to some faulty twine and our poor knot skills. However, I've never seen guacamole disappear so quickly in all of my days which equals success in my book. I think dinner gathering better sums up our evening which is just fine by me. Dishes finished by 9:30 and ninos in bed by 10 - don't mind if I do.<br /><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-style: italic;">Cold cruisers</span></span> </div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-r5tErnPG_JM/TcRWkapIwnI/AAAAAAAABHc/PO97P4YRz-E/s1600/photo.JPG"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-r5tErnPG_JM/TcRWkapIwnI/AAAAAAAABHc/PO97P4YRz-E/s320/photo.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5603699019982881394" border="0" /></a><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-style: italic;">Muffin Staples</span></span><br /><br /><div style="text-align: left;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-sd2vYPP7OVg/TcRWwMcuP0I/AAAAAAAABHk/2M7akTg2xJw/s1600/photo%255B1%255D.JPG"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-sd2vYPP7OVg/TcRWwMcuP0I/AAAAAAAABHk/2M7akTg2xJw/s320/photo%255B1%255D.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5603699222331146050" border="0" /></a><br />Excited for a beautiful weekend here in Tejas so that we can shower Mother and Nana with all the love they deserve.

Hope you're sculpting your guns for some piñata hammering while simultaneously sipping a mojito for this evening's festivities.

It is one of the sweetest and most entertaining documentaries I have ever seen! Alyssa and I took to the streets yesterday in an attempt to break away from the dreary weather and found ourselves dying over this man's outlook on work and life. Not only has he made a name for himself as a coveted fashion photographer in New York City for literal <span style="font-style: italic;">decades</span> (which is a feat in and of itself) but he managed to do so while living an unpretentious, quiet, almost solitary life. His take on the world and how he sees it is absolutely fascinating. Not only that, but he has an appreciation for art that is nothing short of contagious. Even <span style="font-style: italic;">more</span> astounding is how a skinny, quirky guy in a blue smock can make himself relevant years and years in an industry that prides itself on being the most exclusive of them all.<br /><br />If you are fortunate enough to find it in a theater near you then I say make a date for yourself. You won't regret it.<br /><br /><iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/eJZFvC1IzVA" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="257" width="400"></iframe><br /><span style="font-size:85%;"><br /></span><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size:85%;">"Bill has chronicled the intersection of fashion, society and culture in New York for over fifty years like an anthropologist...

If you were like me and spent the better part of your early morning/late evening in a wedding stupor then you're probably experiencing some serious after affects. Like the fact that you just witnessed the ending to a picture perfect Disney movie featuring the handsome Prince and his flawless Princess or even more impressive that her composure under pressure was nothing short of other worldly. Either way, it was pure magic. I am so glad that I had the opportunity of watching it in real time and reacting to it as it was playing out. She was lovely, the wedding was perfect and I will remember it always.<br /><br />So here's to the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and their happily ever after...<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-07ebWygSWEc/TbrSNqJVkwI/AAAAAAAABGc/UXr7IxU1X3E/s1600/kate_wills.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 225px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-07ebWygSWEc/TbrSNqJVkwI/AAAAAAAABGc/UXr7IxU1X3E/s320/kate_wills.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5601020218682217218" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-tEtxJaemin0/TbrSUFjD6dI/AAAAAAAABGk/-wiNG_6wEEo/s1600/Picture%2B3.png"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 238px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-tEtxJaemin0/TbrSUFjD6dI/AAAAAAAABGk/-wiNG_6wEEo/s320/Picture%2B3.png" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5601020329117084114" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Gk0C8iwwwgI/TbrSbNoznJI/AAAAAAAABGs/rjloV2oSnZg/s1600/Picture%2B5.png"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 205px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Gk0C8iwwwgI/TbrSbNoznJI/AAAAAAAABGs/rjloV2oSnZg/s320/Picture%2B5.png" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5601020451547749522" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-4euSTqtm-lo/TbrSfbO7snI/AAAAAAAABG0/BNezHgcRa9A/s1600/Picture%2B6.png"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 218px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-4euSTqtm-lo/TbrSfbO7snI/AAAAAAAABG0/BNezHgcRa9A/s320/Picture%2B6.png" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5601020523916800626" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-LiA2W-4B7ZI/TbrSl33EVYI/AAAAAAAABG8/SoBS6qiiLyk/s1600/Picture%2B7.png"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 222px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-LiA2W-4B7ZI/TbrSl33EVYI/AAAAAAAABG8/SoBS6qiiLyk/s320/Picture%2B7.png" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5601020634680546690" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-0ABMfkpQZds/TbrS5MX7fYI/AAAAAAAABHE/I4ZuTO29GIM/s1600/Picture%2B8.png"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 199px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-0ABMfkpQZds/TbrS5MX7fYI/AAAAAAAABHE/I4ZuTO29GIM/s320/Picture%2B8.png" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5601020966604602754" border="0" /></a><a style="color: rgb(102, 204, 204);" href="http://www.vanityfair.com/society/features/2011/04/photos-prince-william-kate-middleton-royal-wedding-201104#slide=1"><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-style: italic;">via</span></span></a><br /></div>Kristenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04429623748878249769noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7740538207173630685.post-61466009639456709302011-04-28T17:32:00.004-05:002011-04-28T17:39:19.306-05:00It's here!<div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-IRsf9Lcv1Gc/Tbnq_AvHEAI/AAAAAAAABGU/9lmFFBmpSmA/s1600/prince%2Bwilliam%2Band%2Bcatherine-kate-middleton%2Bcopy.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 234px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-IRsf9Lcv1Gc/Tbnq_AvHEAI/AAAAAAAABGU/9lmFFBmpSmA/s320/prince%2Bwilliam%2Band%2Bcatherine-kate-middleton%2Bcopy.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5600765979862175746" border="0" /></a><a href="http://www.officialroyalwedding2011.org/"><span style="color: rgb(102, 204, 204);">4/29/11</span></a><br /></div><br />It's finally here!

I look at the images daily, pull my favorites out of the bunch and hold onto them for a day when I need to look back and remember what I once found cool. This short film by Intel looks at the genius behind Scott Schuman's approach and what makes him find beauty in the everyday. I am struck by his lack of "formal" training and his strength in self-refinement when it comes to photography. He has taken the basic idea of "beauty in the eye of the beholder" and created a phenomenon.<br /><br />Like he says in the video, it will be interesting to see how his work will transcend time and depict our generation for years to come.<br /><br />Below: the short film and a few images I have loved.<br /><br /><iframe title="YouTube video player" class="youtube-player" type="text/html" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/e5NgG5koPZU" frameborder="0" height="390" width="640"></iframe><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_AUY8XtOuvNE/TSYueMUqifI/AAAAAAAABFw/rj4Hmp79Na0/s1600/thesart.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 214px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_AUY8XtOuvNE/TSYueMUqifI/AAAAAAAABFw/rj4Hmp79Na0/s320/thesart.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5559181886274308594" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_AUY8XtOuvNE/TSYuSOn4qUI/AAAAAAAABFo/mBqeiVrrG0E/s1600/21710Joa_7639Web.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 214px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_AUY8XtOuvNE/TSYuSOn4qUI/AAAAAAAABFo/mBqeiVrrG0E/s320/21710Joa_7639Web.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5559181680733366594" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_AUY8XtOuvNE/TSYuN_PVorI/AAAAAAAABFg/sUuQROyCqRA/s1600/11310JHack11888Web.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 214px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_AUY8XtOuvNE/TSYuN_PVorI/AAAAAAAABFg/sUuQROyCqRA/s320/11310JHack11888Web.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5559181607884399282" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_AUY8XtOuvNE/TSYuks-GriI/AAAAAAAABF4/4V-Iw8ulu0E/s1600/9229BikeSohoWeb.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 213px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_AUY8XtOuvNE/TSYuks-GriI/AAAAAAAABF4/4V-Iw8ulu0E/s320/9229BikeSohoWeb.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5559181998117269026" border="0" /></a><a style="color: rgb(102, 204, 204);" href="http://thesartorialist.blogspot.com/"><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-style: italic;">the sartorialist</span></span></a><br /></div>Kristenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04429623748878249769noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7740538207173630685.post-37197500838703580282011-01-03T15:50:00.006-06:002011-01-03T15:54:36.992-06:00Wishing you a...<div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_AUY8XtOuvNE/TSJEsqkBKAI/AAAAAAAABFQ/Dln2DDLb9Ts/s1600/NYE1.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 237px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_AUY8XtOuvNE/TSJEsqkBKAI/AAAAAAAABFQ/Dln2DDLb9Ts/s320/NYE1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5558080424258906114" border="0" /></a><span style="font-style: italic;">& to my beautiful Mother...</span><br /><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_AUY8XtOuvNE/TSJEzhQuISI/AAAAAAAABFY/B7wjS5ppHjo/s1600/bday.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_AUY8XtOuvNE/TSJEzhQuISI/AAAAAAAABFY/B7wjS5ppHjo/s320/bday.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5558080542021132578" border="0" /></a>Kristenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04429623748878249769noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7740538207173630685.post-72713203156842135042010-12-30T16:24:00.012-06:002010-12-30T16:54:54.457-06:00A Very Good Year: 2010 EditionIt's hard to count your blessings with a year full of trips, weddings, baby announcements, birthday parties, reunions, holidays, new relationships, sporting events, concerts and everything else in between. <a style="color: rgb(102, 204, 204);" href="http://kristenco.blogspot.com/2009/12/very-good-year.html">Last year</a> I took a look through my photos and realized that things had been good to me.
