Self Portrait


Self Portrait, originally uploaded by juliecinci.

In honor of Donna's suggestion, I took this self portrait today while skiing. I've included my favorite pic of the day below. You can see a full set of pictures (including my cute kids) that show how Indiana makes snow when there is none on the surrounding grounds by clicking on the Perfect North set.

This was my favorite of the day, though I wish the people in the lift were my kids!

Boys Break Stuff


Boys Break Stuff, originally uploaded by juliecinci.

Jacob broke his wrist and Liam broke his glasses. Yeah, they break stuff.

The cast says: "Jacob, You Do NOT Know How Ski!!"
I wanted to say to the writer: "You Do NOT Know How Write!" :)

Liam's left lens has now fallen out of two pairs of glasses in just a few weeks. We lost the first lens and this time, thank heavens, we found it. I looked at the pair on the counter and noticed Johannah's book: Everything is Illuminated behind it and thought: Picture of the Day! I did have to adjust the angle of the glasses to keep the window light to a minimum, but otherwise this is how it looked.

Timed Essay Writing at the Learning Tree

These are some of my advanced composition students at our co-op called the Learning Tree. They are writing timed essays practicing for the ACT. From back to front: Susan, Lee Ann, and Allie.

Have to record what may be the only snow play day left for these three. Johannah heads off to college next year and this is the first snow (and perhaps the only) of this winter. They have the pinkest cheeks!

January 21, 2007: Colts are AFC Champs


















Take a look at those comments! Ampersand (Kim) and I turned the blog into a chat room and talked our way through the whole, exciting game. Too fun!

Morning Blues


Morning Snow, originally uploaded by juliecinci.

SNOW! Finally.

Woke up to a winter wonderland scene. This is the view out of my back sliding glass window where we watch our birds feed. I loved the quality of light.

Cincinnati Shakespeare Company

Jon took this photo last night when we ushered at the Cincinnati Shakespeare Company's studio series: "Women of Troy" by Euripides and "The Dumb Waiter" by Harold Pinter. This lovable Cincinnati pig is dressed as Hamlet, naturally, and is wearing a yellow construction hat as they remodel the lobby.
