Without Flash

With Flash

Ok, I lied, I took FAR too many pictures, but these are the best.

2006-11-13T14:37:00.000-08:00

Derek is SO white. That flash just really brings it out.

Such a pretty dress. And this was before her hair fell down.

My son, the ham. Seriously, WHO FLASHES A PEACE SIGN? Hippies.

After this one, Derek was like...why aren't you smiling Mina? Gee, Derek, maybe cause you're almost HANGING off of her.

Apparently, they LIKE to sit on people. And people like to be sat on.

Isn't he CUTE? Does it take away from his manliness to have him in front of my cow wall? He was in the "man-chair" as Cruz called it.

What you don't see is Mina, I think they buried her in hopes of getting her presents.

A pretty dark one, but I like how they are all just sitting (or standing) there talking, much like their parents were in the other room.

This is why we don't let me do people's hair. It's falling right out of the clippy.

Peek a boo!

Power Rangers, MORPH. Unless they are really making plans to get ALL the cake, somehow.

I was going for backlighting to make her look "angelic", instead I got a really dark picture. Thank god for "image adjustment".

This cracked me up. It's a look of..."Good lord, why am I still dealing with this?" I'm sure Derek was being bossy or something.

Yet again, with the looking. For Chrissakes, I was ALL the way out in the living room and yet she KNEW to look.

Chicka, Chicka, Boom, Boom. Will there be enough room? How many times have I read this damn book? Too many.

Derek can't weigh more than 50 pounds, hopefully he didn't do any real damage.

Yes, Derek was actually hitting Aaron with that pig. I would have been more worried if Aaron wasn't laughing. But perhaps he was gasping? Crap, too late now. Ariel rescued him shortly after anyhow.

This was actually BEFORE the cake. Believe it or not.

Quiet. (need I say more?)

My kid, probably assuring Natalli that he was right about something or other. That looks like his "I know I'm right" face. Looks like a magic card, so he was probably ~~lecturing~~ teaching her about it.

Cake, unmolested.

It was such a pretty cake.

Two seconds after she blew the candles out. I MISSED it. Next time I'm putting it on video, and then I'll get it!

MMMM. Frosting covered candles.

Natalli really made some of the CUTEST faces, especially when she would say please. She looks so innocent. (like all kids do. =))

Isn't she helpful?

Deep in thought (like WHEN can we have CAKE?)

Cake ecstasy

These two are quite the cake and ice cream team. They had it dished out in like 5 seconds flat. I timed them. (not really)

Again, with the looking at the camera. STOP LOOKING AT THE CAMERA PEOPLE. =)

Do you see what I mean about the faces? She is TOO cute.

Coloring things are AWESOME for presents.

Derek wanted his hair spiked, it's really getting too long to do it properly, but I tried.

No! STOP! I don't even HAVE a camera, I SWEAR.

I like this one, I don't have a smart ass caption for it.

I love this little sideways look she's giving him.

Mina and Natalli were hard to separate.

Hopefully these don't look as red-eyed as they were. I fixed them a bit. Finally, the kids settled down to watch part of a movie. (which really means, YAY, no more beating on people.)

Why, yes, we do doctor photos around here.

So, at least with this one, they have red eye and look like Zombies that deserve to be eaten by the TEETH.

More Old pictures and FALL!

2006-10-13T15:05:00.000-07:00

This tree looks like it's on fire.

This is SO fall!

It's hard to take a good picture of a picture taken with little light.

That Hair.

Oldies, but goodies

2006-10-13T14:54:00.000-07:00

Heather and I, ferris wheel in the back.

Misty and I

Cousins and Angie, in the front.

Misty and I, again.

Heather and I, again. We like to take pictures smoking.

More pictures of sisters and various other stuff

2006-10-13T14:12:00.000-07:00

ICE CREAMS

Aspen and I, again

GNOMES!

No, that's NOT free.

Isn't my floor clean?

Pictures sent to me from my sister, Aspen

2006-10-13T14:08:00.000-07:00

Me and my sister. I must have been 3 or 4.
Just me. I must have LOVED fishing.
Horsie!
Me, again.
SEE! Fishing!

Pictures 10/11/06

2006-10-11T16:38:00.000-07:00

Do you see how they try to fuck you like a bitch? It costs less to get more!
Derek's little sister is kinda cute. At least she isn't screaming.
Do you SEE the drunken angle he is leaning to?
When he goes fast enough, he balances well.
This might have SOMETHING to do with why I'm having weird ass dreams.

Sizing issues

2006-08-26T22:26:00.000-07:00

Girly stuff

2006-08-24T22:18:00.000-07:00

Pink GALORE

Lipstick!

More pinks....or slightly reds?

Even more pink, hiding with the BORING colors.

And then these nude colors, which I kinda want to try out.

My "library" at work

2006-08-22T21:11:00.000-07:00

Fair

2006-08-21T20:44:00.000-07:00

The first "ride".

Doesn't he just look pleased as punch?
The second "ride".
The third ride, the one Derek didn't like so much.

There is the guy, telling Ben where to get his tickets refunded.
The SCARY ride had such illuminated pictures as this.And this. Isn't this FANTASTIC??
This was the ride Derek SWORE he'd gone on before and wanted to do again.
The last ride. The scrambler is much easier on my mind.This was the zipper. Every time it whipped around, I heard loud SCREAMING.
This one sure had some height to it as well. The quest to get a perfect Derek and I picture. Cute hair.Another shot of cute hair. =)
The pirate toe!

Miscellany

2006-08-19T23:24:00.000-07:00

That's right, eclairs. I can go to the damn bakery if I want.

I couldn't put this book down.

Mrow! A great mix of mystery and sarcastic humor.This one I picked up for the title.

Collage!

2006-08-19T23:20:00.000-07:00

This is a gorgeous picture.

BIG ROCK!

Finally! The top. =)

These are neat little letters.

Pretty naked fairy!

OMG!

2006-08-19T22:26:00.000-07:00

Karina made me this. It is awesome. I LOVE the picture in the middle.

Me and the dress. The only decent dress I own.

YAY! OCEAN!

The picture in the middle.

Me - on the rocks.

Bug and bites

2006-08-13T17:21:00.000-07:00

Big bite on my arm.
Two bites melded into one on my leg.
Same two bites, next day. They are getting better.
Ben liked this picture of the Grasshopper best.

I liked this one best.

I'm so FULL of myself.

2006-08-13T16:20:00.000-07:00

Hello there feet.
My feet love each other and fit together quite nicely.
I have pink-foot!
Besides it looking like I'm pledging my allegiance, I like this picture. I've been screwing around with the black and white.
And with the black and white, the CRATER on my forehead is not so noticeable.

Odds and Ends

2006-08-13T16:09:00.000-07:00

Old, crappy chair.
New, AWESOME, FREE fucking chair.
WHY must people spell my name wrong?
ZILLA!!!!!!!

My ear.

YARD b.m. (before mulch)

2006-08-10T19:37:00.000-07:00

I DECIMATED THE ROSE BUSH.
Rose bush again, only viewed from the back gate.
The pile O crap that I had to remove that one day, you know, last 3rd of July?
The other SIDE of the pile O crap, it was TOO big to fit on the screen.
A REAL back yard. Not just a weed pit. Though there were still some over by the left side there. Like my shadow?

YARD

2006-08-10T19:29:00.000-07:00

OMG! Fresh mulch. It's SO pretty.
All the way back. This looks SO much better than it did.
Even the bushes look better when surrounded with brown and not gray.
My TREE!!!!! You can't see the roots!
And the rhododendron. Now you can't even SEE all the snail shells. Dead snails.

Me trying to do things.

2006-08-06T19:17:00.000-07:00

This would be WHY I DON'T COOK. I left the eggs boiling too long and it EXPLODED. I didn't even know it would do that.
My ear in all it's glory. Except it's hard to see the top.
And here is the top, but the bottom is hidden.
This was the picture Derek brought home. I tried to Photoshop it, but his ear looks funny, since it was pressed against Jake.

My first attempt. I'm sure I'll go back and try again.

You're so vain..(and by "you're", I mean, I am.)

2006-08-06T19:02:00.000-07:00

I have a green tongue. Sometimes.
I taste good and like to lick things.
Happy birthday to me. So what if when I smile, I look half asleep?
This one is better, eyes are more open and DIMPLES! OMG!
And we're back to half asleep.

Rhyme or reason? None here

2006-08-06T13:40:00.000-07:00

My tongue amuses me.
OMG! Dimples. I can only get those to come out occasionally.
Squally baby.
This was the best picture I could get.
And then she just started crying again.

2006-07-16T15:01:00.000-07:00

They don't have these chips anywhere I know here in Eugene/Springfield. Yet I can always find them on road trips. It doesn't make any freaking sense. They are airy and yummy.
3 of my 4 ninjas. Ben tried to shoot one at Jesse outside and we'll never find it now. That's what happened with the damn chicken. Still these are awesome. And scarier to have flying at you then a chicken.
A magnet! Now I know what poker hand is best. I could actually PLAY poker.
The biggest box of nerds EVAR.
My own Ester. In magnet form, of course.

In no Particular order

2006-07-16T14:49:00.000-07:00

Someone from work got me this. It's CUTE.
Get me a bath set and I am SO happy. Seriously. I love the bath sets. Smelly things are good. At least good smelling things.
GNOMES! I got a WHOLE family of gnomes. I must find places for them in the back yard. They are AWESOME.
And a VERY soft and fluffy cow.
More earrings. They are PRETTY.

Me, all me.

2006-07-04T15:55:00.000-07:00

BURNED! I got the car arm. Between pitchforking and riding to Rexius, I got some sun.

All tendril-ly, sweaty, and tired. But cute. I really like this picture.

My poor neck, I just realized, it looks like part of my ear too. =(

Seriously HOT. =)

Me being amused by my tendril-ly hair and my inability to get a decent shot in the mirror.

Gotta make everything work and small enough.

2006-07-01T18:47:00.000-07:00

Re-sized...to send to Roy.

Back in the day.

2006-07-01T17:47:00.000-07:00

My first Mina. Isn't she DARLING?

Mina, Heather, and Derek

Paul and Mina

My little sister. She'll be TWENTY on the 10th

Me at 2

I can't forget Jon!

2006-07-01T17:37:00.000-07:00

MOLLY! Molly has cool stars.

See? And she has good cleavage.

Jesse and some other people I don't know.

Ok, so these are out of order. This was when Molly got there.

Jon and Roy! The back of Roy's head anyhow.

Apparently, I must have had the camera to my eye the whole time.

2006-06-25T22:36:00.000-07:00

Jesse LOVES the doggies. This one is Spike.

Sidney and Marshall goofing off.

Jesse trying to get the dog to pose gracefully? Maybe? Not sure.

The dog is possessed. Jesse looks like he is coming on to my camera, though.

Marshall and Sidney again.

LORD DO I TAKE A LOT OF PICTURES.

2006-06-25T22:29:00.000-07:00

Marshall, Jesse, George

Isn't Sidney PRETTY?

Jesse loves doggies.

ROY again, and some guy....damn. I KNEW his name, but I can't rememeber it.

Marshall, perhaps saying Stop with the pictures, you're killing me.

Yet again, Sidney's party

2006-06-25T17:44:00.000-07:00

That's my baby. =) He's SEXY.

ROY!

Lawn GNOME!

Me taking a picture of Sidney taking a picture, I was fairly amused by the idea. Everyone was like..WHAT?? And I was like...no, it's funny. Really.

Ben, Austin, Some guy, and George.

More Sidney's Party.

2006-06-25T00:17:00.000-07:00

This is Marshall. Marshall is most decidedly awesome. Marshall gave me alcohol after a WONDERFUL encounter with my mother after I'd run away.

Ally and Sidney.

Ben and George. And a bunch of people in the background. =)

Marshall getting sexy with the mallet.

Jesse and Roy. After about TEN takes. Those boys are HARD to get to stand still.

Sidney's party, or I'm drunk.

2006-06-25T00:08:00.000-07:00

This right here is Spike. I kept calling him Spike like on Buffy when Drucilla says Spike. Ooops.

Sidney's awesome ear.

After she blew all the candles out. She's awesome, DUH.

This is amusing me too much, cause I am drunk. I cannot type either, but I'm trying.

This one is Dotty. The only way to get a picture of her face is to hold it in place. Yeah, she is determined and smart, and stubborn.

My Space

2006-06-23T16:32:00.000-07:00

NINJAS!

Fucking Tom.

Baby DEREK

2006-06-21T19:18:00.000-07:00

Happy tub baby

Aww, he loves his mommy. I kinda wish he still could wear that shirt.

Bewildered baby!

AWW! Happy baby in front of the thimbles. I was so scared someday he would just knock them over.

Sucking on da toes.

2006-06-16T00:14:00.000-07:00

Derek LATCHING onto the kid with the gameboy. Of course.

CUTE FAMILY!

And SMILING. =)

Isn't she KEWT?

Derek running to the fence and back.

Random

2006-06-16T00:08:00.000-07:00

Are my toes blue enough?

What about now?

I came back to my desk after an accounting meeting yesterday.

It's good to know others are as bored as I am when we are in the meetings.

OMIGOD! BABY POWDER SCENTED CANDLES. They smell SO good. =)

2006-06-01T21:53:00.000-07:00

Even the BOX is cool.

Cool new case, on sale for $2.50! Rawk.

Damn accessories.

The little black case, Apples answer to the little black dress?

MY BRAND NEW IPOD.

Shiny!

THIN! And not so shiny.

Picture Books

2006-05-21T20:27:00.000-07:00

An Eighties revival, right on my wrist!

Heather and I, New Roads Prom. Hmm..like...1996? or so. I think 1996. Maybe '95.

Paul, and Paul's attitude towards picture taking. Like my attitude towards it.

Me and Paul. See, this time he tried to smile nicely, and I stuck my tongue out and fucked it up.

YAY! My picture books fit in the closet again! It's all pretty.

2006-05-20T18:59:00.000-07:00

My butterfly, of course. It amuses me. Cause it's pretty.

Valerie, at my old house...hmm...probably 2002 as well. Almost five years ago. Wow.

Tammy in the bodice. Boobs, boobs galore.

Ariel in the bodice. MORE BOOBS.

Jesse coming in towards the middle of the party. Like usual.

2006-05-20T16:14:00.000-07:00

Heather, Boo and Simple. Boo is the black one. Simple is the other one..I don't know how to describe her. She was named aptly.

Phattus the Cat and Paul. He liked to lick people's heads. The cat, not the guy.

Jesse continues to look the same. This picture was from when I lived upstairs with Jake. These are VERY old pictures.

T and A Cleavage!

Aaron and Tammy. Somehow I even have pictures of a drunken Aaron. I hadn't remembered, I guess. This one was from 2002, as well.

Hello

2006-05-20T16:02:00.000-07:00

Heather and I...um..1996? Wow, that was a LONG time ago.

Maybe the last time he washed his face.

Derek and Katie and Mina...Mina looks so LITTLE. So does Derek, of course. And probably Katie.

Hard to see, but Derek and Mina at my OLD house, which was in 2002.
