Christmas was a lot of fun but seemed way too short. PaPa’s and Paul’s came from Tennessee and I got to be with my dear Nita!:) I didn’t use my camera much but I just recently discovered that Picasa3 has a webcam setting so we had lots of fun with that :). Here are a few collages that I made with that.

And now closing with a Quote of the Day from Dad:

As long as I can remember Dad has always had cracked heels but he does try to take care of them and the other night he was laying in bed rubbing his heels with lotion and I walked in. He raised his eyebrows and looked at me and said, “My heels aren’t all they’re cracked up to be.”

Today it snowed almost all day! It was so much fun and it was beautiful! I love God’s creativity when he made the seasons! I mean, seriously, who on earth could have thought up snow?! It’s awesome and amazing! Well today at school we were out in the snow a bunch. For lunch, some of us went out and ate our lunch in the tree row. I’ve been discovering lately that you can make life so much more fun and interesting just by thinking outside the box and doing little things that are out of the ordinary. Oh, and the more random, the better! Maybe some time i should do a post on all the random little things I’ve been doing lately. Anyway, here are a few pictures of today, taken by Trippy. They’re not the best because they were taken with mom’s little camera, but we were trying to capture memories not ribbon-winning pictures. They have lots of memories. I like them. Speaking of memories, we sang the song ‘We have this moment’ in bible class this morning, and I really started thinking about some of the awesome moments we have in school and we really never ever will have them back. It’s so sad to think about. I’m gonna miss the seniors that are graduating this year like crazy! Man…
Ok I just realized I’m rambling. Maybe I should stop and just let you look at the pictures. enjoy.

Please pray for my Grandma, she’s in the hospital and not doing very well. She’s having open heart surgery on Monday - Pray that she will be strong enough for it. She is an amazing person, and I love her like crazy.

I got to take a few portraits for Keny with his truck. It was fun and a beautiful evening!

I got to shoot Karen this past Saturday and it was lots of fun! Thanks for the good time Karen! *Wind Break!*

Please feel free, as always, to critique!

The Anonymous Somebodies asked me to take the pictures for the album that they are putting out soon. I felt honored and had a lot of fun doing it. Here’s a little something I put together when I was editing them…I was just playing around and had some fun with it.

I got to shoot Josh and Misty last Sunday, and I shot them in our very own little town, Partridge. It was lots of fun-Josh and Misty, you were great to work with!

Feel free to critique and comment!

This post is temporarily on hold. Check back later for more wedding pictures.

I just realized that not only have I not been updating, but I have gone to the next level…I don’t even care anymore. oops. sorry. So, I decided to just post something. Like, a quote from dad…

Tonight at the supper table, I was wondering if it’s appropriate to call a guy a ‘hunk’ right to his face, and what people actually think of when you say ‘a hunk of a guy’. So I asked dad and he said:
“Well when I think of ‘hunk’, I think of (insert name here), (insert name here), and (insert name here). I think of a guy with a big chest, who is tall, strong, and has rugged good looks.” Then with a big grin on his face, “To simplify it…Marvin Mast.”

I decided not to call guys ‘hunks’ right to their face.

I just updated and then I closed my window and was getting ready to got to bed, but I just sat there looking at the picture on my desktop. I started thinking…How in the world did I manage to be so lucky? No, not lucky, extremely blessed. Is it ok to brag on my family? I sure hope so cause I think I’m going to. I was looking and thinking, it is so amazing that I get to live with the most amazing people in the world.

I get to live with the Wisest Dad who is always there if I need advice about anything, I know I can trust whatever he says and it will be the best for me. Not to mention the funniest dad ever, as well. I laugh every day many times because of him. I would love to have his humor.

I get to live with the Sweetest Mom. She is always thinking of special things she can do for us kids and always has bright ideas. She surrounds us with her love and never lets us forget that we are her most precious things in the world. She reminds us everyday of how much she loves us.

I get to live with Hans, the smartest brother who I can always ask any questions about seemingly anything and he is willing to take the time and explain it to me in a way that anyone could understand. He is patient and has taught me so many things.

I get to live with Benji, the funniest brother who is just that…the funniest person. Even on my worst days when nothing is funny, he can always make me laugh! I just smile thinking of him, he’s so witty and hilarious.

I get to live with Kristi, the awesomest sister who is an ever abundant source of entertainment. Always drama. Making everything in life into something dramatic. Her joys are simply magical and the every day chores are always a story of great curiosity.

I get to live with Dietrich, the cutest most caring brother who is always doing sweet things for me. If I have a headache or am in a bad mood, he will come over and stroke my hair or lay his hand on my arm telling me how sorry he is and everything will be alright.

I am so blessed.
