playing with my camera!

I am very excited to say that for my birthday my wonderful Mama and Daddy got me a new digital camera! (A pink one, of coarse!) I got spent this weekend taking pictures, trying to capture art around me. (With inspiration from my father.)
The yellow flower painting was the first one that I did after moving up to Connecticut. The pink tulip was done a couple of years ago. If you look at the pets (which is hard to miss) you will see my dog, Star enjoying a meal of bark, the the other of her probably thinking "why isn't Mommy putting the camera down ever?" The picture of the cat, Capriccio really speaks for itself! But those are my pets and my delight when Craig is at work. Like I used to tell my family when I was growing up "All I want to do is stay home and play with the pets!" So, this blog isn't really going to be a writing one- it's about me showing off some of my paintings, and my pets! The things that give me joy besides my husband! :-) Enjoy!

a new year


Hello everyone! Seeing that this "blog thing" seems to be the latest internet trend (especially in my family) I thought that I would give it a shot! I've always enjoyed writing, so it seems that this is a good idea to get back into the swing of things!

I decided to start my blog today because it is my birthday! I am twenty four years old and have recently relocated to Connecticut with my husband, Craig. Even though I am relatively young, I still feel relatively old-er... I just know that 24 might be an even better year than when I was 22! There's so many new things that can happen! I certainly do miss my family, friends, and my church family back in Tampa. So by keeping this blog, I hope to connect with some of ya'll outside of the MySpace, FaceBook world!

So until I write again, blessing to everyone and have a great weekend!
