100th post already?

Well because this is my 100th post I figured I'd do a big fun giveaway. I know sounds retarded because I don't have too many people that read this thing but I figured it'd be fun and I got the idea from Mandy. Anyways I'm not a very crafty person but there is one thing I am working on and it would benefit the winner and myself. I'd love to do some free photos for you! No matter where you live I'm willing to make a trip in the future to visit or whenever you come here and you'd get the photos and I'd get to build my portfolio! Sound fun? Well I hope so.. I'll pick randomly and the contest last a week so all your blog stalkers (oh and I know they're are a few of you out there!) who don't comment please leave me one some way or another so you can be counted in!

But on another note this is what's been going on around here:

John and I decided it time to by a Food Saver, especially because we've been buying more organic food (do some research about it, I was amazed) and we have a huge tendency to waste. We eat out a lot and we've both decided it's a good idea to cut back since we have a sealing to plan for. So we spent our Monday FHE evening doing this:



Alex felt the need to help a few times and had a fun time carrying a lime around and trying to open the bag. He's found out what a lime tasted like and kept saying more, more, more. Once I give it to me he looks at me and points and goes mine! Lol


Oh and you know I had to buy one of these little guys. I think subconsciously if I bought one I'd never have to see the commercial again and hey guess what it's been like 4 days and I haven't seen it once! I bought it at Walgreens and not I didn't get the dang Graty!

John has been hard at work designing a few web pages-- Yes even he is a computer nerd at times. I hope to help but I like the fact that he's super creative and such a hard worker. He also helps with a lot of my photography homework, I wonder if he'll get into photography too someday.


Me, well I've been reading.. I've finished 4 or 5 books in the last week, it's kind of become an obsession. Once the series I'm reading really grabs my attention I'm stuck until I finish it. I've also been learning a ton from my amazing Photography teacher who is so kind to me. I have more pictures to post of what I did my last homework session on, I haven't been posting my homework lately I realized. Also we're getting ready for two short but fun trips to Idaho and Cali.. boy I can't wait!

Other than that I've been kinda laid up since I've had about 2 or 3 procedures on my back in the last 2 weeks, I've been doing a little working out but other than that I've tried to keep it mild. I honestly don't want to lose anymore weight because the clothes I have are starting to get lose. I never thought I'd actually say something like that to be honest.. but I guess I just. I hope to get my back back to normal again someday soon I just hope surgery isn't going to have to be the fix. If it is well at least I'll hopefully be better!


Another week or so and we'll have a puppy! How exciting right? I can't wait we get email updates with pictures and videos all the time! They're all so adorable I'd take them all home, and they're getting so big!!

    I am really jealous of your photography class . . . maybe you can save your material and pass it on to me:) My town is too dang small to have cool classes:( I can't wait to see what you have been working on.

    So I got really skinny after I had Cambria and I remember thinking the same thing about losing more waight b/c my clothes kept getting too big . . .

    So let me know how you like your food saver. I have often thought about getting one.
