SO, I definitely need to update this ole thing!! It has been quite some time. The good news is, A LOT has happened!!!! The bad news...it's going to be a few more days before I actually get anything cool posted/updated! The road of fun is almost over, the finale being Morgan's wedding this weekend!!! I'm RRRRRRRRREALLY excited for it! So get ready for a big post, with some even bigger pictures!!! :)

short short short

Well, the last couple of weeks have been pretty busy for me! I went to the Iowa vs. Arizona game down in Iowa City with two of my favorite friends, Morgan and Jessica. We are lucky to be alive.

It was a lot of fun!!

Here are a few pictures, in reverse order, of kind of our day:

Those are all the pictures for now!

This Friday Morgan and I are going to Miranda Lambert's concert!!! I'm so excited for that!!

Until next time.... :)

Something To Talk About

FINALLY! I uploaded some pictures from the Great Minnesota Get Together, or what normal people call, The Minnesota State Fair. Well, my experience at the fair was not well documented through photographs, but the concerts I went to at the fair were. So here is what I've got:

The BonTag Roulet concert which featured Taj Majhal and BONNIE RAITT! It was a pretty great concert, however, I did not get very many great pictures from it. So here is one:

Bon Bon

Next picture is of some cows. I like going through the cow barn and I like touching the cows, but I'm always afraid they are going to kick me. So far, they have a clean record of not doing so.

The next concert was RANDY TRAVIS, with JOE NICHOLS as an opening act! I LOVED it!!!!

That's all I got for this round of blogging, but I've got some other nice pictures and things for the next time. So look forward to that soon. :)

Good photogs from the concerts I went to this week, cows from the state fair, and so on!!

Other than that, life is great!!!

Let the Butter Fly!!

PICTURE BLOG!!!
I went to the Como Zoo & Conservatory/Park with my father the other day, I was able to capture some really great photogs in the butterfly tent exhibit they have! I love all the butterflies they have flying around, they are so colorful and pretty!!

Here they are:

I apologize for the lack of words/descriptions, but I think the photogs speak for themselves!! Hope you enjoyed!! :) Until next time...

BOGEY

Well, last Wednesday, the twelfth of August in the year of two thousand and nine, my dear friend Morgan and I volunteered, also spectated, at the 91st PGA. It was so neat!! I love love loved the experience!! We saw quite a few golfers and got a few autographs. The course, Hazeltine, is very beautiful. We did not get to see Tiger Woods, however, we DID see Y.E. Yang, who won it all!!


Here are some pictures I was able to capture:


This is me, obviously, posing with PGA logo on fence!


This was my favorite golfer, Nick Dougherty. He was so nice!!



Nick D. signing autographs.

Morgan and I posing by the course map. Cool outfits.

This is the one and only, Geoff Ogilvy.

Vijay Singh!!!! Signing autographs. Go Fiji.

The champion himself, Y.E. Yang!! (On the left, in such a cute/fashionable outfit!) Bright.

British's own, LUKE DONALD.

The young and quite nice, Anthony Kim! We got his autograph. I also told him I liked his shirt, he said "Thank you! Very much!" Sincerely. hahaha.

And that wraps up this posting session! I loved the time well spent with Morgan. It was a beautiful day, and now I am slightly thinking I could be a small fan of golf! Crazy, I know, but we'll see what happens. Until later!! :)

Photogs!!!

So, I got a new camera (as mentioned before I believe!!). So far, I absolutely LOVE it! I haven't had many events or things that I need to be capturing photogs of, but I snapped a few here and there and these are them:

St. Paul, MN (from across the Mississippi River)



Flowers! From the Como Zoo & Conservatory



Again, Como's beautiful flowers

Yet again, flowers! My dad says "that would be a great background photo!" (hint hint--in case your desktop needs something new and fresh! haha)

The BEAUTIFUL (and TASTY) German Chocolate Cake I made for our intern's last day of work

Some pretty rocks from Taylors Falls, WI. They are down in a "pothole" which was created by glaciers moving (something of that sort).

Elvis is alive and well, scarfing a lady at the Mall of America. (okay, he's a pretend Elvis who won the competition of Elvis impersonators)

And last, but not least, SCRUMPTIOUS truffles!!! I made them, took them to work, they were gobbled down in a flash! What a hit. Thanks Bakerella (and more importantly Natashka Barashka!!) for enlightening my life with these dangerous little goodies!!!

Those are all the pictures I'm sharing for now! I should have some more good ones coming up soon, because this month is going to be a BUSY one!!!! Seriously busy--I will be out at the PGA the day after tomorrow (Wednesday) watching Tiger, Padraig, Phil, and the boys, Iowa next weekend for tubing down a river, Meredith & Ron are getting married the following weekend, the 27th Bonnie Raitt Concert (and the start of the Minnesota State Fair!!!), and September 2nd--Randy Travis Concert!!
Pretty long list of FUN for the upcoming weeks! So look forward to that.

Until then.... :)
