I hope you get as much enjoyment out of these as I do...




I have decided that this is a sign from god that I need to start doing yoga so that it doesn't hurt so much the next time I try to fold myself in half. haha

The Eve

Went to g-ma C's (photos to come, maybe) and then home.
A good time was had by all. See...




(mom and sister both got headphones... I think daddy might've felt a little left out?)






(I got a flash (!!!) ^without and...

^with... crazy shit. Nikon knows how to do flash!)

I just love my family... the dynamics are killer, it's good stuff.

Christmas came at a great time this year...

I'm a damn lucky gal.

Thought I'd share a photo of my lovely Christmas decorations... haha. They're slim, but the cat doesn't mess with 'em.

...pretty pleased w/my banner... It cost a whole dollar to make. :)
Thanks for the paint swatches, Lowes :)


**I have 'til the 5th off from work... so I'm going to get into the habit of having my camera with me ALL the time... I hope to post a few shots daily... so, stay tuned!
