Camping pics and some changes...

Hi everyone! I have some new pictures for the blog and some small changes. I cancelled my Myspace and my Facebook accounts, so I will now be putting ALL my pics here! It's probably a good thing because I neglect this blog very badly. I also deleted my CL Photography blog, because why have a blog with a photography name when you aren't a photographer or in biz!? Ha! Now this one will get the proper attention. I only have 2 blogs now, this and the PS for FUN blog. So that does mean that unfortunately you will have to look at all my random photography shots here now instead of the CL Photography one. But hey, it's a part of my life as a Ziggy, so it makes sense to post them here!

So here are some camping pics from Memorial Day weekend. I know...I'm late. :O)

So we found our campsite and got all set up and saw THIS!

These are everywhere out in the desert. I mean everywhere. Some have big black ants like this one and some have big red ants. Normally they mind their business and they are not a problem. But this one was SO big that the black ants were everywhere. So we had to move.

Once we got settled in, it was time for fun!

Eric's friends came up Saturday for the day to ride with him.

This is Eric for those of you who do not know him...

This is his friend Trevor...

This is Matt...

And this is Kc...

The boys went on a long ride and when it got too hot we headed inside to keep cool.

Playing games is ALWAYS fun when camping!

And so is coloring...

Lil Nugget watching Daddy go for a ride in the Jeep...

Then when went up to the Old Lady's Cabin...

We did bubbles & games too that I didn't get pics of! :O(

And the sad part about the whole trip is that we found out we could not keep Dixie. As sweet as she is, we discovered that she does not deal with pain in a healthy way. She reacts on the defense and will bite. Avyree fell on her tail, slightly and Dixie went after her. I was right there and she didn't get her, but it was close. So we knew that second that we would not be keeping her. We will miss you very much beautiful girl & I hope you find a loving home to call your own...

Then it was off to home...

We had a wonderful time and I'm glad I went. It had been a year since I last went camping! :O)

Hope this post finds everyone well! If you stop by, leave me some blog luv! :O)

One quick share...

Still trying to sort out my computer issues. Although I'm grateful to have a loaner laptop while mine is in the shop, it's VERY frustrating. So many glitches, setbacks and things not setup the way I need them to be. But I'm trying to do the basics just so I can play with the hundreds of photos I have. So here is a quick post of a shot of Avyree that I fell in love with!

Really hoping I get my laptop back soon so I can get back to my photography life! I SO miss it. i miss Photoshop...I miss CS4. I knew I loved the upgrade, but didn't know how much until I had to go back to CS3. That's another long story.

And yes, I do understand things could be worse. I just my MISS creativity time!

Hope everyone is doing well and I hope to be back on the saddle soon!

Sorry I've been MIA....

My laptop about died and is in the shop. I have a loaner laptop, but just can't get the calibration right. So although I've been taking some shots here and there, I just haven't posted any. Hopefully I'll be getting my laptop back in a couple weeks and I'll have lots to share. I bought a Macro lens that I'm SO excited about. Unfort it's on back order, but I should have it and my laptop back about the same time. Then watch out cause I'll have TONS of new pics!

I hope everyone is doing great and I miss posting. So be ready in a week or two! :O)

Mother's Day...

I'm a little behind on posting and have been neglecting this blog. But I've been taking lots of pictures, so I'll be posting more. I hope this finds you well and that you all had a wonderful Mother's Day.

My Mother's Day was perfect. We stayed home and spent family time together outside. So here are a few randoms from our day!

Here is a cute little bird house that Haylee made at school for me! It's much smaller than it looks in the pics...
