Ricky´s a Rock Star! And I just realized I´ve never posted on this!! This past weekend was a mini-tour around Spain with his band "Love Division" (see http://www.lovedivision.com/). They currently have a "Live in NYC" album out and on i-tunes. They´re recording their 1st studio album next weekend here in Madrid. I´ll let you know when it´s available for re-sale!

I´ve been testing my new SLR but have not mastered the art of lighting, thus I had to pull some previous action shots as well.

Competition at Gruta- round 2 and they´re in 1st place!

Inauguration Day 2009!

A friend sent me this link to create your own Obama Icon. This is my way of celebrating this historic day! http://obamiconme.pastemagazine.com/

Belated New Year, Bday, and some yummy food!

Feliz Año Nuevo! We spent the New Year holiday with friends in Bilbao, also celebrating a Happy Birthday to Ricardo! (new year´s baby) Walking around the town and stopping for a few Pintxos (like a tapa or appetizer) is always a favorite part of my trips to the Basque country, so thought I´d include a picture of some of the yummy Spanish food. Wishing you all a wonderful 2009!

Happy Holidays!

Finally settled after a wonderful trip home to Tennessee for Christmas. Despite my detour in the Newark airport and a few days without luggage- it was such a nice and relaxing holiday vacation. Nothing like meeting some old friends for dinner, baking cookies with your niece and sister-in-law, shopping with mom and dad, Christmas eve with the neighbors, movies with your brother, and meeting the precious little baby of your best friend. Yes, indeed, this is what Christmas is all about. See you all again soon!
