Week 12 - Peace & Tranquility

we cheered on our high school team at the FIRST Robotics Regional

on a recent snowy morning

Melinda - Buenos Aires:  Lots of windows in the building directly across the street from me
Cindy-Peoria:  I attempted to snap a photo of the 30-foot tall 797 Mining
Truck through the window of the new Caterpillar Visitor's Center, but all I got was the museum grounds reflected back at me.
Tatiana - Prague:  Beautiful door for a
fashion store in Lima, Peru.

Week 10 - Bath time

Cindy-Peoria:  As I clean the Boys' bathroom, I
strive to focus on the positives....  Toothpaste splattered
all over the wall and mirror indicate they actually brush
their teeth.  Towels wadded up and discarded on the
floor suggest they used it.  Soap shredded into bits and
plastered all over the shower wall... give me a mintue...
I'm still thinking about that one!
Nadia - Phoenix: A turtle bathing in the sun
Melinda-Buenos Aires: Just a typical Saturday night ;)

Jennifer - Toronto:  Bath Time

Tatiana - Prague: Getting bathtub ready for the little one

successful young men.
Jennifer - Toronto:  I am inspired by my family, my friends and most importantly, my faith.
Tatiana - Prague: These two inspire me to do everything, to learn, to have patience, to share and to laugh!

Simone-NYC: My magical city inspires me
Melinda-Buenos Aires: many things inspire me and this smiling face is one of them :)
