We're Getting MARRIED!!

Holy crap holy crap... Jeff proposed to me last night!  Check it out!

Day 12 — Whatever Tickles Your Fancy

I just finished cleaning my whole apartment and I needed to sit down for a bit.  My feet are killing me!  I guess that's what I get for being a little OCD and spending the last 4-5 hours scrubbing almost everything I can see. 

Jeff's brother and his girlfriend are coming tomorrow from on Ontario for a visit!  I'm really excited, it's going to be so fun!  They are only staying until Monday, but this was a really good weekend to come here because it's our town's annual birthday a.k.a. 3 days of non-stop partying and drinking lol.  It's going to be a really good time.  I just hope the weather holds out.  About an hour ago there was just  HUGE storm with the loudest thunder I have ever heard in my life.  We get some pretty wild storms here in Manitoba.  The forecast says that there is a 40% chance of rain on Saturday and I really hope its wrong.  Our town has fireworks that night and an outdoor beer garden tent.  Please don't rain!

Today is Sampras' 2nd birthday!  He's growing up too fast lol.  I told Jeff to buy him a can of tuna for a special birthday dinner.  I know he's just a cat and has no idea what a birthday is or even what the date is, but I know it's his birthday and dammit I'm going to celebrate!

Well that's all I have to say for now.  Talk to you later!

Day 11 — A Photo of You Taken Recently

I had to go on Facebook to find a recent picture of me.  This was taken in May by one of my friends:

A bunch of us here in town had a little party at friends house near by.  I got pretty smashed and when that happens, stupid pics of me are taken.  This is a prime example haha.  Oh well, we were all having fun and it was awesome, so I don't care!

Day 10 — A Photo of You Taken Over Ten Years Ago

I couldn't have even been over a year old when this picture was taken, and I'm 22 now.  So this for sure falls into today's category.  Check out my awesome zoo animal bathing suit, I was rocking that thing haha!

Day 09 — A Photo You Took

I have over 15 gigabytes of pictures on my computer that I took myself so choosing was kind of hard.  I decided to pick 2, and here they are:

Of course I would pick 2 pics of my babies haha.  These pics were taken one month after we got Sampras in October 2008.  He is going to be 2 years old next week.  Dixie is going to be 3 in August.  *Sigh*... they grow up so fast!  I love taking pictures of my pets because they are just so adorable and I want to have lots of pictures of them for the future, so that I remember how adorable they were when they get older.  They will still be adorable then, I'm not saying that.

Oh another note, yes the template has been changed, of course.  The old one crashed on me or something, I don't know what the hell happened.  Anyways, this one will do for now.

Day 08 — A Photo That Makes You Sad

I thought I'd just quickly post this blog so that it looks like I'm getting back on track with the challenge even though I am failing at it horribly.

A photo that makes me sad... here it is:

This is my cat Sampras when he was about six months.  My dog Dixie and him played a little bit too rough and her tooth nicked his eyelid.  THANKFULLY she missed his eye, but he needed to have some special gel put on it just in case there was an infection.  He also needed an anti biotic pill for a week.  I felt so bad for the little guy.  He healed very well though, and today there isn't even a scar.  So even though looking at this picture makes me feel sad, it all turned out well in the end.

Day 07 — A Photo That Makes You Happy

Holy moly I really suck at keeping up with this 30 day challenge.  I have a good excuse though, as usual.  Jeff's mom has been visiting with us for the past few days so we've been pretty busy.  Sadly, she goes home tomorrow but we will see her when we go home at Christmas.

Okay so today I have to show a photo that makes me happy. Well, here it is:

This is a photo of Jeff, Dixie, and I from some family photos that we had done last summer.  We had lots of pics done, but this one is truly my favourite and it makes me feel the most happy.  It was a candid shot, taken while we supposed to be on a break and Dixie just happened to look up at me and kiss me and everything just turned out perfect.  This picture just looks so full of love and every time I see it makes me smile and feel happy.
