Hey everyone! So I know I've been slacking terribly the last year or so, but I have a good excuse! I got married last year and obviously that was a lot of work and then ya know just adjusting to married life and all, I have a lot more responsibilities now, but I will be putting more time and effort into my blog again. It is important to keep it updated. Thank you for understanding! Oh and I got a super cute little puppy as well last year :)

My Sleepy Dogs

Sometimes it'd be nice to be a dog and sleep all day. My bull terrier, Fiona and my Havanese, Ellie Grace. Too cute.

Burger Hill

Yesterday my friend Katy and my dog Fiona and I climbed a big hill right next to my house, Burger Hill Park, it was the first warm day this month, 71 degrees. So wonderful. Nice to take my camera for a walk :)

Before/After

Just wanted to show a little before and after photos. I find it oh so interesting how easy it is to change an image in less than ten minutes in photoshop.

Haircut :)

Yay for a new hair cut :) I dont know why but I seriously get more nervous going to get my hair cut then I do for public speaking. I think today might have cured me of that. It came out good, maybe because I only got a little bit taken off. I've wanted long hair for years and due to the hair straightner, curling iron, and hair dye it always just breaks off. But I've been making changes, I've only dyed my hair twice in the last year and I rarely do anything other than air dry it. I'm going to try to only wash it every other day from now on and get a trim every five weeks. Sooner or later I'm going to cure my fear of the hair salon.

A photo after today's hair cut. What do you think? 

And... How often do you usually get a haircut? 

Time Lapse Videos

For the last year or so I've really enjoyed experimenting with time lapse videos. Clouds especially amaze me with how different they look when viewed as a time lapse video. Just standing outside, staring at the sky, they hardly even appear to be moving, but capture that little bit of motion with a camera and they suddenly come to life!
This first video is just super short, taken on a hot day this past summer. The second video is mostly from last winter during our first huge snow storm. And also has some clips from today and last autumn when I was in Missoula, Montana. I chose to add the song "Strong Enough to Save" by Tenth Avenue North to the second video because to me it kinda goes along with the photos, and its just a beautiful song.
Hope you enjoy, leave comments <3 let me know what you think, and any suggestions as to what i should try next ;)

My brother's video - Trucks Drag Racing

This is my brother's video, just thought I'd share. It has almost 49,000 views in less than a year. So I guess I'm a little jealous cause not one of my videos has reached even 2,000 views yet. Haha. You should watch this video though, it has that many views for a reason!

Katy & Sarah *For Fun*

One day, just for fun, my friends Katy and Sarah decided to do a photo shoot with me. I don't think my cheeks have ever hurt so bad from laughing so much. These girls are goofy and tons of fun to photograph. Leave comments below and let us know what you think :)
