day 181: When life gets crazy sometimes we don’t have time to cook at home as much as I’d like to. To go along with my yoga kick lately we’ve been eating a lot more healthy food which means more cooking.. like this tasty veggies and tofu with homemade peanut sauce. mmmmm

day 180: I’ve been doing a lot of yoga lately… this is my 4th week of attending at least 3 classes per week and I have to say I’m feeling fabulous! I’m so much more flexible and relaxed already and I’ve only just begun! One of my favorite relaxing poses is child’s pose… I had a hard time trying to take a photo of myself doing yoga… it was quite tricky to get positioned correctly… but here’s my best attempt. I guess this can double as my belated August self-portrait.

day 179: I really hate being behind on my blogging! Ben and I spent all evening hooking up and installing/tuning up my new computer and transfering files over from my old machine. It actually wasn’t quite as bad as I’d feared it might be and now I’m almost all set up! Even though it’s not as hot here as it was in Palm Springs, I think it’s still a little too hot for Rita. She was laying upside down in front of the fan all evening.

day 178: On Sunday we had a little bit more time in Palm Springs, but because it was so hot we really weren’t up for much outdoor activity. Luckily mom came up with the great idea to take the aerial tram to the top of the mountains. It was a good 40 degrees cooler up there and what a view!

day 177: My old computer was the laptop that I bought in college and it was definitely on its last legs. It had crashed and been reformatted about 4 times, so it was definitely time for an upgrade! We took advantage of the long weekend to do some research and finally go get me the computer I’ve been dreaming of 🙂 Look at the beautiful monitor!

day 176: On Saturday it was the biggest rush and craziest day of them all. Ben and I got up at the crack of dawn (ok 630, but that’s pretty darn early for us!) to head out to photograph the getting ready shots at the wedding… and we didn’t quit until after 10pm. Then we hopped in the car to head out for our Palm Springs weekend.

day 175: Sorry these are all coming at you a couple of days late… this weekend was full of crazy busy days and very little internet access. This first shot is from Lizette & Riley’s wedding rehearsal which was held right as the sun started to go down and color the sky a beautiful shade of pre-sunset blue.

day 174: I have a super-fun and exciting weekend coming up! I have a fun lunch tomorrow followed by a wedding rehearsal, then a wedding Saturday and a trip to Palm Springs for Sunday and Monday. Whew! I’m getting exhausted just thinking about it but I’m so excited! In all the hustle and bustle getting ready I snapped this shot in the house this evening.

day 173: I’ve been putting a lot of work lately into my photography and my websites. If you haven’t seen it already, you can see both my photo portfolio and photo blog at katyregnier.com. And if it wasn’t enough to have a super fun new website I designed, I just received my sparkly new business cards in the mail as well. Aren’t they pretty?

day 172: Yesterday evening we walked to dinner and I brought along my camera (as usual). Instead of taking shots of the scenery (which we walk past several times a week) I decided to hunt out some cool textures on walls, trees, sidewalks, whatever. This is my favorite one of the day.
