missing.

here are just some shots that i've taken while i've been missing. i did get that camera from my friend...thank you wilson family!!! we have really been enjoying it. all of these shots were taken with it. i have plenty more, but they are in RAW files and i couldn't load them. ergh. just more stuff to teach myself.

i've been painting.

emily's head with stiches. she got her stitches out this past tuesday.

not as traumatic, thankfully.

we celebrated birthday's at my mom's.

my brother in law, perry, had his on the 2nd of feb., carrie's was jan. 20th, conner's and my mom's on feb 10th and jack's on jan. 27th.

my little snuggler, nephew aj. he took a little nap with aunt susie.

this just cracks me up.

the coulter family. my sister just got her hair cut for locks of love.

the messes.

another mess. disposal went out. mike, our youth minister, use to be a plumber.

we heart him. so i said, "hey, if you're not busy, can you tackle this on friday??"

he of course said no prob. well, i forgot that he had surgery on his mangle foot(he got run over by a humvee when he was in the army a couple of years ago...sounds funny and painful all at the same time)just a few weeks ago. here he was...in my kitchen....walking cast and all.

good grief. i felt so bad for asking. he did a fabulous job, though.

i took my old roomie, lisa, out for a birthday breakfast at sugar sister's

this a.m. she just turned 28 on thursday. this was the ONLY shot that i didn't use raw for.

oh well. it's cute.

while i was at breakfast, i got a text from our friend ashley(justin's bff from maize hs) that

she and her new hubby just found out they're expecting a baby!!

congrats, ash and sequius!!

glad you can join our club!! :)

and this is the new beast. the screen isn't sitting on the drawer now,

but whatever. i love this thing. we just got it yesterday, so i'm just now getting to play

around with it.
