Horray for Summer!

Welcome to July!

Tonight Hubby and I went for a walk, and I took some pictures. I was playing with aperture and shutter speeds, trying to get it just right. My brother in law is a "professional" (uncertified) photographer and he lent me his 50mm 1.8 lens. I've loved playing with it... however, I think I want one now! I love having an SLR, I've been wanting one for so long. Hubby bought it for me in December as an early grad present (really early!), a wonderful surprise. I have an album on facebook of my top ten photos that I've taken, I limit it to 10 and then just change them up as I find new favourites. Eventually I'll share some here. :)

From tonight, this is where I live (except not really, this sadly isn't my backyard, it's a park by my house).
And, a picture of my puppy, Oliver (aka Da Bubbies- we call him this more than his given name, that's for when he's in trouble "Oliver Bubbies Goat Lastname!" While this is just a picture of him being cute, we also made him climb a tree, hang out on a post and tightrope walk... we find our fun where we can!



I'm excited. Hubby, Oliver and I are going to visit my parents on Friday. My parents moved from my old hometown last October, lived in an RV and finally just moved into a real house in their new town so we're going down to help them move in and see the place. I'm very much looking forward to it. I (mostly) enjoy my parents. Plus, big God-send, hubby has been asked to do a presentation on Monday (during our Vacation) in a town 2 hours from my parents so his work is now paying for all of our gas down and back! Yay! After me being in school for two years, a mortgage and just living we're not rich folks by any means, God does provide! And, there will be extra "gas money" left over for shopping, =D I loves me some shoppin'!

Now I'm going to go watch "The Deadliest Catch" with hubby. I love TLC! (I don't love Jon and Kate anymore though, talk about giving up on the sanctity of marriage, sigh)
