Where Children Sleep

I stumbled upon this from another blog, but it caught my attention so much that I wanted to share it here also.

It's called "Where Children Sleep" and it's a visual demonstration of various cultures and various levels of society.  You really should check it out.  Really.

Where Children Sleep

Let me know what you think!

30 in 30

So 30 days from today this guy will be turning 30 years old:

That means that today he had to receive his BIRTHDAY BOX!

This birthday box houses 30 gifts, mostly small, random things, and he'll get to open one a day for the next 30 days.

Wanna see inside?

I think he's pretty excited about it, and so am I, but mostly because I get to celebrate his 30th year with him.

Even though it is a little hard to believe he'll be THIRTY (see below)--

And yes, those really ARE gumdrop teeth! He's a special one, I tell ya...

Vienna: Rose Garden

This is the last of the Vienna pics, but I definitely wanted to post some of the amazing flowers, namely roses, found in the Rose Garden.

We spent a whole morning here our last day just reading and taking photos.  It was quite enjoyable.

Lovely, right? Thanks, Vienna, for a great couple of days!

Vienna: More Around Town (and 34 weeks!)

Well, these aren't the promised rose photos (coming soon), but here are some post-butterfly exhibit shots from around town.

Jas got to have sushi for the first time in a long time (it's super expensive here in Slovakia also, but he found it at a lil roadside stand for fairly cheap).

And speaking of the roadside stand,

Cute, huh? :)

And while we were exploring the city some more we decided to take some 34 week pregnancy shots...

Jas couldn't stand not having his picture taken, so here he is in all of his pregnancy glory...

Oh, I do love that man.  And the fact that he'll soon be a father! ;)

Vienna: Butterfly House!

While in Vienna we also visited a butterfly exhibit.  We were a little skeptical about it at first, but it ended up being one of my favorite things we did.

These butterflies were BEAUTIFUL and it was completely worth it if for nothing else but the pictures we were able to capture...

Seriously!?  Look at that detail, and God's handiwork...

There were plenty of bright flowers to attract all those butterflies.

And this last guy seemed to be posing for the camera.  My very favorite shot:

Jas did a great job getting most of the shots of these butterflies because he's a bit steadier with the hand when it comes to creatures that can flutter easily.  I, on the other hand, would not make a good National Geographic photographer. 

Maybe a good garden photographer, though.  Plenty of rose pics coming your way, too!
