Dear Photo community,<br />
<br />
I have obviously completed my 365 for 2010 and have not posted any more photos on here but I see this site still gets views. :) thank you.<br />
<br />
Seeing that fact, I have a small request. My friend's daughter has been diagnosed with a malignant, inoperable brain tumor ( DIPG). I'm asking that you please click the link below and read her story, donate if possible, tell your other blogger and photo friends . If you don't have the funds to donate please and sign up for a photo contest they have been entered into, the winner will receive 500.00 and if it is my friends photo the money will be put into her foundation. <br />
<br />
Maddie's story is true and will touch your heart when you read it, she has the face of an Angel and sadly will be one sooner than later. Please help her family memorialize her.<br />
thank you so much <br />

My mom was open minded yet strict and sadly banned some books from my life, due to her religious or as we like to call it misguided belief...she didn't allow me to read a few books, when she later realized keeping me from reading something and making my own choice was just not having faith in the way she raised me. It contradicted how she wanted me to be.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">I find it rather sad that people challenge books to be banned.

As a family we would play it, and if I would lose, I would toss the board. LOL what? I never said I was a good looser. My friend's little girl wanted to play, so I busted it out. OMG this game is so BORING. At least the little pieces are super cute.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/happygirltc/4975966945/" title="{252:365} Giddy up by happygirltc, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4089/4975966945_d8e9a7e832.jpg" width="500" height="333" alt="{252:365} Giddy up" /></a>T.Chttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03417066166897833925noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4291947814869847032.post-67573789734514420832010-09-08T21:12:00.000-07:002010-09-10T03:15:20.343-07:00Day 251 on the patioTonight we ate dinner on the patio. I love the lights that I have hanging around. Summer is coming to a close so its probably the last time we will be eating outside. Well, truth be told, in the summer we don't really eat out there, well, unless its cool in the evening. It gets so hot here that nobody wants to sit outside. This week has been a bit cooler. yay.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/happygirltc/4976344474/" title="{251:365} by happygirltc, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4126/4976344474_3eab0324e7.jpg" width="500" height="388" alt="{251:365}" /></a>T.Chttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03417066166897833925noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4291947814869847032.post-83662195001681012192010-09-07T21:10:00.000-07:002010-09-10T03:12:15.335-07:00Day 250 Hot DogI've been wanting a hot dog from this place, I love the little sign.

I remember being in Junior high and learning how to type. a classroom filled with huge typewriters, 1 per desk. and all you would hear was the clicking on that keys. <br /><br />When I see words typed they just seem so much more to me, typed words can make a simple word or sentence.... beautiful<br /><br />I was pretty stoked when my mom still had my old one! Its very odd that she had it, cause she is worse than I am when it comes to keeping things, we are ocd like you wouldn't believe.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/happygirltc/4961766131/" title="{248:365} It was a dark and stormy night - snoopy by happygirltc, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4131/4961766131_73c0e500ae.jpg" width="500" height="379" alt="{248:365} It was a dark and stormy night - snoopy" /></a>T.Chttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03417066166897833925noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4291947814869847032.post-7932003834828445362010-09-04T23:22:00.000-07:002010-09-04T23:23:20.798-07:00Day 245 Nik L NipI had no clue that was the name of these bottles.
