Update November

So this is a short post. Updates are going to be in the mail with Christmas cards which I will email next week (or as soon as the pictures I ordered get here). I figured some new pictures were in order for a good update. I also have a current dislike relationship with the camera so there is only one of me, but enjoy the ones of Sam. :)

Update: Finally some pictures

Also I am thinking of making this blog private because it is really just to update family. My other blog is more open and talks about anything. So I will try and email those that I know read this blog with the password and leave this blog open for another two or so weeks.

Oldies

So since I didn't get a new picture of Sam and I haven't posted pictures in awhile, I went through my billions (close enough...) files of pictures and picked some old ones to post.

The one of Sam is at his 17th birthday party (2 years ago) and the one of me is 3 years ago in B.C. (with my much hated short hair at that point in time)

I also added two pictures of West Texas area (more around Big Bend), Welcome to my world...

Pictures

Just some random pictures from my trip to B.C.

Vancouver

So here are the promised pictures (and they are not 2 months late). I am going to experiment with photoshop and maybe add some more but that are not all just one after another. Park that I played at as a child by my Grandma's house.

Cute pond within the park.

Kitsalano Beach (pretty sure I misspelled that but I don't want to look it up right now).

Family picture...all happy of course to be there...cough cough. I should be nice and say it was great being back together but its my blog so I can be honest and say it was really really (in place of another word I wanted to use) akward.

Beautiful Sunset, my grandma would have loved it.

So there are a few pictures for now. Will post more later when I have time. Pretty busy lately, I am trying to come up with an extra job to save money for this fall semester. I am in the process of making business cards for babysitting and dogsitting so I can hand them out. Don't have much of a life so why not watch children/dogs. I like both so its a good idea I think. Hopefully it works out.

Also planning something for when I graduate to celebrate, keeping it quiet right now because I want it to pan out and not jinx myself.

And a truly recent picture of myself, taken on friday.

Now off to study for my finals.

Another Update sans pictures...

I know I keep promising pictures…but it’s just not happening currently. I AM going to be taking some pictures of my neighborhood and campus, tomorrow, truly…I AM.

Sam is doing well. He is working two weeks on and one weekend off currently. He is at a different site right now so he is staying in a hotel and living on ramen noodles and Peanut butter and Jelly sandwiches. He seems to like what he is doing so I am happy for him. He is already starting to tan again from working outside…I wish I could tan like he does, he does brown almost. I stay pasty white or look sick when I have a tan.

Me, hmm, there is 2 weeks left in school and I can’t wait. I do have a 5 page paper to write and a presentation to do next week but then there is dead week and finals. The running joke around where I work is that I should go get drunk on my birthday because I will be 21 but there are three things wrong with that scenario, 1) I don’t normally drink (I did a little while in Germany, where I sipped others beers and had ONE shot of something, but from that I found out I HATE beer and I am not much of a drinker), and 2) I have finals starting Monday no way I am going to be partying when I will be studying 3) My birthday falls on Mother’s Day this year so Yeah, going to be a crazy busy day anyway.

We are coming up to Canada, and I cannot wait. Sam will be there for a week and me, 2 weeks. Then I come back and work in my church’s nursery the rest of the summer.

I am so excited about June and July….it’s the FIFA 2010 Soccer Cup in South America. I am going to be watching as many matches as I can around my work schedule.

P.S. I have taken pictures I now just have to get them from my camera to here...
