We're going all-out on Saturday!!


So today, Kara and I made shirts to wear on Breaking Dawn day! She, Charlee, and I are seriously gonna be decked out in our red, white, & black! We were all fuming when we found out that we'd be at camp, and miss the midnight release party, so we're doing this to make up for it. I'm so excited! We're gonna stop on the way home and buy Breaking Dawn at Walmart as soon as we can. It is going to be so much fun! I'll be sure and have someone get a picture of the three of us in our Breaking Dawn gear, and I'll post it when I get back - along with all the other pictures I'll be taking at camp.

We leave tomorrow morning at around 5:45, and then we'll be back on Saturday - maybe Sunday, depending on if we stay at the cabin or not - evening. I'll probably post them over the weekend, but if I can't put Breaking Dawn down, then I'll post after I'm done. But still - it should be no later than Monday. :D

The Dark Knight & Breaking Dawn: My 2 Current Obsessions


I can't resist posting this. I just saw Dark Knight for the second time today. This has definitely got to be my all-time favorite movie ever! Seriously, I don't even remember ever being this excited about a movie. It's so creepy! I'm seriously in love with Heath Ledger as the Joker. He played the part perfectly! Some od the stuff he does, you kinda have to do a double take - like, "Did he really just do that?!" This picture is from one of the many favorite scenes from the movie. He cracks me up, but kinda disturbs me at the same time. I love it! Dark Knight blows Batman Begins completely out of the water, in my opinion!





Now, the second order of business. I'm sure I'm not the only who is absolutely stoked for this Saturday! Breaking Dawn is finally going to be released! I've gotten way more excited for it ever since the Daily Breaking Dawn Quotes started. Some of them seem a little insignificant, but then there are others where I'm seriously just sitting here with my mouth wide open. I've been checking Stephenie Meyer's Website every day to see if there is any news about the book.


Today, on the Entertainment Weekly website, there was a spoiler posted, with Stephenie Meyer's permission, of course. I was kind of disappointed, to be quite frank. I already expected that the spoiler was going to happen. In fact, I thought that Stephenie had already said that it was going to happen. Oh well! Only a couple more days until I can finally read it!


I'm kinda bummed, though! For the longest time, I've been so excited to go the midnight release party, but I'm going to be up in Pine at girls camp! We are coming home on the release day, but still. I was looking forward to getting it at midnight. Now I'm just going to have to buy a copy on the way home from camp. But as long as I get to read it, I guess I'll live. ;)

Zeke




Zeke Update

I decided to let Zeke out for some sun today so I could snap a few pictures of him. I know the McVey family likes to check my blog for pictures of the snakes, so I figured this is a good time to do it. There are about three more that I'm going to post on my photo blog, so you can see them there.

Zeke has been getting a lot better. Some of you may or may not know that he likes to be picky, and go for the entire winter without eating - he went nearly ten months without food this year; they can go for up to six months without it getting dangerous - but he's back in the habit now. He's not quite as lethargic as he used to be, which is good, and he's been eating and pooping regularly, which is also good. I'm a little concerned that he's got another skin infection, but that's not a hard thing to fix; we'll just have to go to the vet so he can give us shots to give him. He's also shed about two or three times within the past couple months, which means he's growing at a good rate. The only problem with the shedding is that his eye caps are getting dry again, but that's another easy fix. All I'll need to do is, next time he sheds, rub some aloe vera gel on his eyes once or twice a day until he sheds; the dried up, wrinkly skin comes right off! That's all the new stuff with him that I can think of for now. I'm gonna try to get him into the vet sometime within the next month or two, so I'll post more updates once we get him in.

Heather & Lexi

Heather called me up this morning and asked if I could do some mommy/daughter pictures of her and Lexi tonight. We went over to the same place I did Natalie and Jason's family pictures, at the little lake on 75th Ave. & Rose Garden. It was so much fun, and I got some really cute pictures of both of them! This is one out of many of my favorites; the rest are up on my photo blog, so you can see them there. I love getting the chance to go out and take pictures of people. It makes for great practice, and I absolutely love doing it! It doesn't even matter if it's 115° outside; I'm always happy when I have a camera in my hand. :)

New Twilight Teaser


Click Here To watch the new teaser trailer for the Twilight movie. I wasn't quite tired anough to go to sleep just yet, so I was just checking Stephenie Meyer's website on my phone, and saw that a new one was released. I couldn't wait to watch it, even though it's close to midnight; plus, my dad was still up so I got to show it to him too. It shows a ton more than the first one that was released. I'm really anxious to see how everything turns out! I mean, of course, the movies are never better than the books, so I'm not expecting much from it. But still, I'm excited to see the final product. :D

Callie - Kolsen - Footprints








Natalie and Jason's

We went over to Natalie and Jason's house tonight for family night, and I snapped a few pictures of Callie and Kolsen. The rest of them will be posted on my photo blog, so check them out. Oh, and the picture at the bottom is just my footprints after we washed the grass off our feet.
