Happy Independence Day!!!!!!!!!!!!!

   Sooooooo, I am alive out here somewhere. I've just been SUPER busy!
   To redeem myself, a whole host of pictures!!!

    First, fireworks!

 

   Next, some pretty flowers that I took at a friends house:

 
   Also, since I've started my new job, making cupcakes, I've become a bit cupcake obsessed :) Anyway, here's my newest "cupcake" thing:

   Thought it turned out really cute!

   Thanks for being so patient with me!

Flowers...Again!

    So, I don't know if it's because we've had SO much rain, or what, but I've been taking a lot of flower pictures lately.
    One question:
       Are you sick of flower pictures yet?

Daisies

   I went outside today, and was so excited to see our garden finally, finally, starting to bloom! So, out came my camera and I started snapping. 

   If I may say so myself, I love these!!

Spring Flowers And A Spider Web

    I know I haven't posted in like ages, but I do have a legitimate reason! Not only have I been working almost every day, I've been taking a class. While the class is only going to last about a week, it's from 5-9 each night. 

    Anyway, here are some pictures that I took this afternoon. I didn't take many because is was rainy and cold. 

    Yes, you read that right.

     Cold and rainy.

     In May.

     May, people!

I know this is a little unusual, but I thought it would make a
really cool picture!

Instagram

   So, I have fallen in love with Instagram!! At first, I didn't see the big deal, but it's great!
   We went geocaching this afternoon with my Dad, and I forgot my camera!! (Yes, this is going somewhere) After thoroughly kicking myself, I pulled out my iPod touch, and my Instagram, and started snapping!! While they weren't as good as they would have been with my Nikon, they were still pretty good!!
   Here ya go!

I love this one!!

Flowers, Rain Drops, and Spring

   I am so glad that Spring has (finally) arrived!! It's been a long time coming; we actually have some flowers starting to bloom in our garden! However, since ours haven't bloomed yet, most all of these flowers are from our neighbors house, or a nearby park.

   Also, I found this great idea on the Coffee Shop blog here! It's an organizer for your desktop! How cool is that?! Here's what I came up with in PSE:

*NOTE: for blog purposes, I've blurred the names on my folders. 

Also, the paper and design elements are not mine, 

so please don't copy anything from this except the idea. Thanks!

Flowers and a Squirrel

  I think spring is finally here! We had a few days last week that were warm, but then we had snow again, so I'm hoping that this time, the warm weather is here to stay!!!

  And this little guy was peeking around our neighbors tree! He'd stay in one place until I took a few pictures, and then move to somewhere else. It was like he was posing for me!
