    I completed my 3rd 5k in a year..and my 2nd this year! Here are some pictures and a short little video from the run.

    This may have been my proudest moment of any 5k..I didn’t need to use my asthma inhaler nor did I even think about it during or after the run! You have no idea how happy that makes me. That is HUGE for me!

    My friend Angela finished in 31:52
    My mom finished in 49:18
    And I finished in 52:57

    P.S. — In the video, it’s my mother that is smoking a cig. Just her..

  2. American Idol..Is it really THE Experience?

    Jeff and I went to see the newest attraction at Walt Disney World — The American Idol Experience. It was mainly to go see Jeff’s latest work! Which was just exciting in itself!!

    This is a picture of a T.V. screen which includes Jeff’s work on the small screen.

    After seeing his work in the pre show, we decided to check out the actual show and see if it lived up to all the hype.

    I’m going to admit this..and it does not, I repeat does NOT leave this page: I watch American Idol and I sometimes enjoy it.

    Maybe had we had seen at least the finale I would have enjoyed AIE more, but it seems like to fully get the whole “experience”, I would have to see all the daily shows and then the finale. I can’t say that there will ever be a day that I feel like sitting in that room for 7 hours off and on. But hey, maybe one day. Plus, it truly depends on the “singers” for the show that you are watching. Yes, they have gone up against others that day for that spot, but maybe you don’t always agree with the judges and you would have liked to have seen someone else. I mean I didn’t agree with who won our show. But then again, that’s life.

    Either way, here are the pictures (that was my favorite part — taking pictures). Enjoy!

  3. Fun in a Parking Garage

    January 24, 2009 by Kelly

    Friday, January 23, 2009 – Happy Birthday to my other, other half, Angela!!

    Jeff is doing an open for a SXSW contest. So last night, we went to the backlot of the Disney’s Hollywood Studios (formally known as Disney-MGM Studios), not to go to work this time *since i.d.e.a.s. was closed*, but to shoot some footage in the employee parking garage. Last night, it was about 40 degrees, which to Florida people is freaking COLD. So here we are driving around with the windows down and the sunroof open to make sure that Jeff gets the right shot.

    We use a Canon HV20 HD MiniDV Camcorder, which is an amazing little camera, along with one of my newest purchases, a Joby GP3 GorillaPod SLR-Zoom Flexible Tripod. Joby makes all kinds of different sizes of flexible tripods and I would recommend any of them to someone that is even remotely into taking pictures.

    As Jeff was busy working on getting some stuff shot, I was taking full advantage of the parking garage being empty (which it NEVER is when we go to work). I was running around taking pictures of the “water tower” that guests would see while they are on the Backlot Tour of DHS.

    Jeff has to be done with the SXSW graphics in about a week..
