6 (six) days!!!

Yes that would be SIX days until everyone can say HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!!
Im so excited!
I love my birthday-
I have every right to be selfish on MY Day right?!

I am so excited for a weekend of camping and drinking and having a blast with family/friends!


Okay- so here is a picture I took the other day with my camera- using some of my "skills" learned in photog class this past week. I can't wait to start actually shooting with the 35mm camera and developing my own pictures- should be very interesting!!


THis week is filled with homework- getting everything for this week and the start of next week done- I can't believe they actually think its okay to have homework due on Labor Day- no classes- should mean the same for us Online students!! but whatever!!

okay one more pic of the bridge because I love it!

Layouts-




A few layouts I did late last week. Using some of my awesome stuff from my SSS!! (a sheet of paper and half a ribbon- lol)













And finally- 2 1/2 years later My senior pics in an album.
Using Junkitz- love it!!

Today I got to play with the cameras for a bit- found some useful websites and printed some stuff off. I am going to makemyself a little cheat sheet so I memorize this shutter/f-stop/ISO stuff!!! I want to take good pictures!!

These suck!


I want to take good pics of fireworks- which means I need a tripod- and I need one for my photography class- so that means I am getting one.

We love eachother- we love fireworks- (I do anways-lol)

This weekend was full of crazyiness- and fun!
And wouldn't you know I had no batteries for my camera on the fun night!!
Great!- so these are my pics from the weekend- Brett's soon to be cousin, has pics of the weekend- so I will have to have her email them to me!!

Fun times had by all this weekend- and the countdown is 14 days Until My 21st Birthday
(i said someting like 12 earlier- dont mind my mathamatical skills- they don't make any sense)

School started today- Shouldn't be too hard- but we will see. My photography class is going to be my favorite class- I befriended a girl who has experience in the dark room- so that should be an advantage on my part- thank goodness
and the nerdest nerd of the 21st century sat next to me- not to be mean- but I plan on never having to sit next to him again- If you bring a 3 hole punch to class- you have problems- if you do the Napolean Dynamite "yessss" in a low voice when the teacher talks about the dark room- you have problems.

So thats my day.

Pics of Dog (and other weekend stuff)





My Jake, and one of Jake and I.


He is such a hyper dog and get realy excited right when you let him off his chain to run for the day. He loves to be petted and does not chew on his bones. He does like to steal my sandals/shoes all the time! Keep your eyes open for layouts of him!

One of the many crash pile-ups infront of us at the Demos.

Today we went 4-wheeling. This is us on the wheeler when we got home- after were were all muddy- dads g/f got stuck...so we had to pull her out- and then brett got the fun idea to fly through the creek so we got all wet...but it was fun and its a MAJOR reason why I love living out in the country!!

That was my weekend- really fun! This week is cleaning, getting ready for the Bridal shower this weekend, and reading! I got 7 books from the Library the other day. Can't wait to get started and read before school starts NEXT week! (21st)
Then its MY BIRTHDAY!! (the 4th)
