Green.

In my apartment complex there are a couple of motorcycles that park in the same lot as where I park. Well, one day, this baby showed up. I thought it was only around for a day, visiting someone else, but it is actually a permanent fixture in the parking lot.

I have always enjoyed green, but this is just hot.

(I STILL haven't seen who drives it, hopefully the driver takes after the motorcycle, haha)

Woohoo!

I'm soooo excited! My second older sister that lives in Texas will be coming to visit during Halloween with my youngest niece! I'm super super excited to see them! My brother-in-law will not be able to come :( which is sad, but I will be able to see my niece (it's all about my niece! haha)!!

Here are some pictures of my niece on the last visit:

This is bath time (I know this picture is a little blurry, but seriously, look at her face! She is so stinkin' cute!)

This is when we got done with the bath, we are happy. I love this picture despite my big head is in it haha


And extra niece fun...I am seeing my two other nieces Saturday for the oldest's birthday. FIVE year old. Crazy! I will have pictures from that look out for it!

Picture of the Week



I am a tad bit behind on the Picture of the Week. I have been super busy with a ton of post photo shoot work and my regular job, and I guess life in general (we all know about that right?! :) haha). I basically stare at a computer for 10-18 hours a day. So I think that's why I am constantly posting pictures of things related to nature. I took this last week Friday on my way home from work.

I don't know why I'm addicted to sunsets, but I am. Sunsets like this make me think of California sunsets on the beach. With the rays of sun so distinctive, it's like a picture you made in 1st grade with crayons or markers and your sun has those long and short "sticks" of sun coming out of it.

I love my drive home for the views and my chance to think about silly but lovely things like that.

Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog


Whaaaaat?! Yeah, I know. I thought that too. Duuude. Seriously. This was a happy little accident I found (while taking a mini break from post work on pictures). It's a little under 45 minutes. It's a three part series that was made during the WGA strike. If you are a fan of Joss Whedon (creator of Buffy the Vapire Slayer and Firefly), then you probably already know about this. I only throw his name in there because, that might carry more clout that this is not a crappy little webisode. It's well done. Really.

I think the biggest reason why it is awesome is because of Neil Patrick Harris. But really the whole thing is great. The music, the lyrics...all of it. It makes you laugh and makes you think, why am I enjoying this obvious over acting and surprisingly great voice of Doogie Howser? And no joke, they can all sing!!

Wanna know more..here is the Wikipedia definition.

And really...even better, here is the actual musical. There might be about two parts of brief "eek" talking for the faint of heart, but really...this mini-web/movie/musical/brilliance is so great. I love how it begins...Please enjoy:



Let me know what you think! I really wanna know.

**EDIT** FYI: You can download the Dr. Horrible show and soundtrack on iTunes.

Phase 10 anyone?

I knew I had a lot of games, but last night when I went to grab Catch Phrase for a little after dinner fun, I didn't realize how many I had. I have kept them over at my parent's house because it's mostly likely something we will do on a Sunday after dinner...but geez, I got a lot! :)



One of my favorites...Trivial Pursuit SNL edition! I still have my Mall Madness game that was given to me when I was probably 12. I loooved that game! I saw a new edition down the toy aisle a few months ago and was happy for little girls that will be able to play it for hours and hours like I did.

Andrea

I don't normally do this, but I must. Mostly because she would kill me if I DID, and well that's reason enough. hahaha.


I L-O-V-E my dear friend Andrea. We met in the Redrock Ward when it was HUGE, years and years ago. There was a group of us that all hung out. Andrea was in that group. Well as one of my few friends from that group that is still single, I see her more often then everyone else. She is such a rock in my life. When I am being less than perfect (haha) she lets me know, puts me where I need to be and all the while still loves me the same. She is such an example to me in so many ways and I am so blessed to have her as a friend. One thing I love best about Andrea is her ability to do almost nothing and she makes me laugh into tears. She lets me be THE goofiest person I can be when I'm around her and will pitifully laugh at my jokes. Some of my best times are her and I heading some where or no where in a car. The destination isn't even as fun or eventful as the car ride is.

Well, Andrea finally skipped town to go to Ricks...ahem...I mean BYU Idaho. ;) (that was for some friends, they know who they are) I was desperate for some time with her before she left. Being the busy woman that she is, our hang out time became pretty random nearing the end. One night, we hung out starting at 11:30pm...until, well...I think around 3:30-4am. We were getting a little giddy and a little loopy near the end of that adventurous night all over town. Before we could go anywhere, I had to get some gas...I brought my camera with me. And well...

Then Andrea got to take over and get a picture...ahem I mean about 75 pictures in a matter of 5 minutes of me. She loved it. I'm sure it was revenge for how often I have my camera on her (and the rest of my friends).


And it was her birthday recently. Happy Birthday homie-g-funk-step-to-this-I-dare-ya!

I love so many things about you Andrea, I can't even begin to start. I am missing you already. I hope Idaho is prepared for it's food to be stolen off their plates without their consent or before they even know what has hit them. Thanks for just smiling at me with those extra cleaned teeth of yours, that exact way you always do that just makes me laugh out loud for no reason what so ever.

Love you boo. Oooh-kaaay! Shoooot.
