Lately


Before I start this post...does anyone know an easy way to create a collage or photo grid?  I used to be able to do this in Photo Bucket, but I must have spent 3 hours + last night trying to find the tool and it appears to be gone.  It's ::beyond:: frustrating!!  Couple that with being 9 months prego and I am not a happy woman right about now!  So any help would be greatly appreciated!

Anyway...I just wanted to share some recent photos with you.  We've had gorgeous weather...and ironically it's snowing today...yes, snowing!  Luckily, it will be back in the 60s by Wednesday.  Phew!

We got to go out on the boat for the first time this season...here I am in in ALL my pregnancy glory...basking in the sun.




Wilson was our skipper...so happy!

The previous weekend {Memorial Day} we got to go on a hike...I was pretty proud of myself being 9 months along and all!  ;)

And my sweet co-workers surprised me with a baby shower yesterday!  Loving all the onesies!

Alright, sorry for the mumbo jumbo...this post would have been waaay cuter if I was able to put it in a collage.  And PS...I'm on Instagram now.  Find me at @schuelove

    (I just tried out PicMonkey yesterday to make a collage and it was fine - very simple.)

  5. You look amazing...from boating in a bikini to hiking! The views are so beautiful. I too use Picasa for collages. Just go to toolbar and choose "Create", then Picture Collage.

  6. You look amazing!! Great photos, I love the one of Mt Tallac - wet dog and all :-)

    I would try PicMonkey, super easy.

  7. Hi! I use PhotoScape, free photo editing software I downloaded here (http://www.photoscape.org/ps/main/index.php). Their "Page" tool is like a photo grid. Or sometimes I just create a free form collage in PowerPoint and then take a screen shot of that.

    Also, you look great! It sounds like you had a fantastic weekend!

  8. Great pictures, what a beautiful view!

    I use Picmonkey or http://ipiccy.com

  9. How cute are you on the boat! Download Picasa, I make all my collages through it and it's so easy (and it's free!)

  10. Wow, you should be way proud of yourself hiking, boating and rocking that bikini at 9 months!! I'm so impressed. You look amazing too! I'm also so jealous of your weather. Here in Texas it's already been so HOT!

  11. You look great - looks like a beautiful few days! Your golden is so precious, I miss mine (my parents have him now to help our other golden cope with putting their 2nd dog down). Picasa is great and easy, but if you want a bit more advanced, GIMP is also free, and has many of the same features as Photoshop!
    Here is the link:

  17. We used to go out on the boat all the time when I was pregnant. I would buy the tiny mini wine bottles since I couldn't drink and enjoy one of those! And hiking at 9 months that is awesome. You have been so active you should have an easy delivery!

  19. Look at you rocking the bikini! I'm so glad you asked for advice on doing collages. I didn't know how to do one. I will have to give some of these suggestions a try.

  22. Just love these photos!! You have the cutest family already and it will only be cuter once your son arrives. Also, thank you for sharing a little about your brother. How sweet and perfect is it that your son will have Grant's name.

  23. I've always had trouble with making collages on my blog! I just can't for the life of me figure out how to share what I have on Photobucket! I guess I'll read some comments and see what people say.

  26. I need to learn to do a grid or collage too! I look forward to hearing the advice you get. Also, it looks pretty warm for Tahoe right now! I remember being SO cold in May one year with snow still in the basin. Did you hike to the top of Tallac? I hiked it back in college (granted I was in awful shape in college) and it was a decent hike! We hiked the "hard side" and i was dying by the top. So kudos for doing that preggo!
