Jumpology

I am completely enamored by these series of photographs taken by Phillippe Halsman.  After taking formal photos of various celebrities of the time, he asked them to "JUMP!" and these are the results.  Here are some of my favorites.

That monkey's for you, tom.  Enjoy - S

Red, White, n' Blue

Happy (late) Independence Day!  Just coincidentally I finally finished my red cropped sweater just in time for the holiday.  It was much to hot to actually wear it this weekend, but I had to at least take some red/white/blue styled photos.  The pattern came from KristenMakes, I very sweet & talented gal.  She was a delight to work with!  Also, I should say that I am spending my summer in Boston, land of our founding fathers, which made this holiday all the more exciting... yes, I'm a history nerd.  Or as they say in I.T. Crowd, a "Standard Nerd!".  I'm sorry for our blogging hiatus, I (or my blogging sister) will try not to let that happen again. - S
