picturefest

a few months ago i broke my camera (again) but i finally got a new one (just a simple point and shoot deal,) so i decided to download some photos.

here's my maggie on Christmas:



here's the apron pocket i embroidered for my friend, emmy:



here's crystal and me finishing the 5k run for ben in st. george:



all 4 sisters and 10 other friends (along with 780+ other people) met in st. george for the run. it was so much fun seeing old roommates and friends and hanging out with a group of my dearest peeps. when michelle, sunshine band, and i returned, this sign was hanging on my window. we had all gone to see the hunger games while we were in st. george and i do love me some gnomes. the trip to st. george takes about 6.5 hours each direction, so after being in the car for so long, it was nice to come home to a little piece of love and talent.



it snowed here, yesterday, april 14th. this is the view out my front window:



but, today the sun came out, so maggie and i went out to take some photos of all the flowers popping up in the yard:








and here's the awesome dish i hope to one day put to use, for now, i just have free t.v. from an antenna on top of my house (which i had to climb a giant ladder and fix this week, due to the massive wind storms.) does this say "white trash"?



and now that it's spring time, i need to clean off my awesome bike and go for some bike rides DING!DING!DING!:



hopefully, i'll put the new camera to better use than the last one, which rarely got used before i smashed it with a crock pot. i hope you are all enjoying the blossoms and sunshine.

I love your pictures, Nel. The flowers are so pretty! Oh, and I want to hear the story behind "before I smashed it with a crock pot." How does that happen? :-)
