Photo-A-Day #1465

Today was Easter and we had a nice day filled with family, food and fun. Eva looked so beautiful in her pretty dress and sweater.

We started the morning with Church with my Mom, Dad, Tara and Erik. Then Eva hunted Easter eggs filled with change. Eva loves putting change in her piggy bank. We also had a very nice brunch at my Mom and Dad’s. Auntie Shelby and her boyfriend Tim visited for the brunch.

After brunch we headed down to the Cape to visit my grandmother. We saw some of my cousins, aunts and uncles and grandma and grandpa. Eva got a bunch of wonderful things including some great books, toys and clothes. That kid makes out like a bandit, I tell ya.

Well I am beat, to see more of our Easter Sunday 2009 check out these Flickr Photos.

Photo-A-Day #1463

In addition to today’s photo I took a bunch of other nice ones. They are up on Flickr.

Yesterday began year 5 of Photo-A-Day. I’ve taken one photo every day for four straight years. When you look at it in one shot it is a huge number of images. People ask me how I could take so many photos. The only way I could do that would be to do a little at a time.

If you are going to accomplish anything worthwhile it is going to take time, every day little by little. Some days I didn’t have the best photos. Some days I had awesome photos. Some days I didn’t want to take a shot. Some days I would take any old thing just to have a picture. But some days I went out looking for something fantastic to shoot. The point is… each day I did something.

There is a saying that was made into a book by a Bill Hogan: How Do You Eat An Elephant? One Bite At A Time! While I don’t want to necessarily put away a pachyderm I do want to get healthy. So in order to do that I have to do something to become more healthy each day. It could be something as simple as avoiding eating a piece of candy or more complex like a nice long workout.

Is there an Elephant You Want to Eat? If so what is it?
