Free Canvas

I saw this on Creative Crate about a month ago and was tempted to do it. It is a free canvas, but after I filled everything out the shipping was ten dollars. Ten dollars on a $50 canvas really isn't that much but I had already spent $20 with my new debit card and decided I needed to tie it up before I got carried away and used my debit card on the internet for everything I wanted. When I changed my mind I had lost the web site and couldn't remember which blog I had seen the advertisement. When Creative Crate blogger posted she had gotten her free canvas, she posted the link. I am excited, now I just have to decide what I photo I want.

Wolf Moon

Yesterday I heard that the moon was supposed to be seen really clearly from the sky without a telescope. I wasn't sure how clear it was supposed to look, but the sky sure wasn't. There was lots of "plane trail" clouds in the sky and the pieces of light from the moon could be seen peeking from behind them but that was it. At home we watched and enjoyed "Once Upon A Mattress" After the movie, lots of light was showing into the window. I went over and opened the blinds and was blinded my the light of the moon. It was like looking at the sun, it was very bright and beautiful.

January

First post of the year and it's halfway thru January, I am so all the ball this year. First off I wanted to share this picture simply because I absolutely love it and have had it as my desktop picture for a year and I don't think I'll be changing it anytime soon. I hope to be able to take such interesting photos, I love, love, love fairytales and the fairytale feel photographers are able to capture.

Utah!

This weekend was so fun! I really enjoy being around grandma and grandpa and Heather and Roy and their beautiful girls. They are so cute! I got to go down to have Heather take my senior pictures. I've been trying to find the perfect photographer that wasn't far away, and she matched the description! So I headed down with half of my wardrobe and took a few pictures. Logan has such great spots and the leaves at this time of year are colorful and still in the trees, it was exciting. Here is a pic of grandpa surrounded by girls like he was all weekend.

For several months I have wanted to a make a candyland cake. Since I was sick on my birthday and sweets didn't seem like such a good idea, I saved the plan. Sharing with grandma, grandpa, and a bunch of little girls seemed like a great plan. It turned out to be a super sweet cake.

HeidiAnn and Amberly had fun taking pictures in the back.

One of the many Beautiful pictures that Heather took. I am so happy with them.

Thanks Heather!

Halloween!

I love Halloween, and I don't really know why, I don't like being scared, I don't like gory things, but I really like the feel of it. Maybe it's because the holiday feels old kind of like an old house. I don't have a clue why Halloween is my favorite time of year, but I just love it. This year we dressed up but really didn't do much. I volunteered to help with Trunk-or Treat the night before, so I decorated the trunk of the van and dressed up as Velma, while Adam and Amberly dressed as Shaggy and Minnie Mouse. It was fun to have us kind of themed. On actual Halloween, Adam and Amberly went trick-or-treating for a few treats, and then we sat down and watched Scooby-Doo while eating Scooby-snacks.

Snowball fight

This is really delayed, but here is the snowball fight when it snowed in the beginning of October.

Homecoming Rock Star

Things have gotten kinda hectic since school started and I haven't posted. I've been stressed over things that really aren't that stressful. For homecoming this year I was put as chairman for a ton of things simply because I never say no, which kinda isn't that bad of a thing. I have yearbook this year now, however it's only on Fridays. Since the yearbook class needed a new camera and I'm the only one who is really in that class, guess who gets to use the SLR? I have to admit I've taken more pictures at home than I have of school functions. Purely because I don't really know how exactly to work it. Anyway, this week started with hat day, then animal day, then nerd day and then today, Rock Star day. I didn't think I had anything but went searching, found some fishnets and built from there by going looking in Amberly's room. I thought it was a super fun dressup day but I scared myself by looking in the mirror a couple times.

Coming up next: throwing a snowball at HeidiAnn
