Caution! Exploding head is on it's way!

Do you ever feel like your head is going to explode?


I new Obama was going to be trouble but to achieve such
chaos in such a short time is dumbfounding. No governmental body has ever been so unconstitutional, and disrespectful of our constitution, and the rights of the citizens, than the one that is in session in Washington right now.

If you are under the misguided notion that the changes that are being made in washington are for THE GOOD OF THE PEOPLE you are delusional to say the least. Plain and simple, the Health care bill (which hasn't even been written, how unconstitutional is that?) that they want to pass has nothing to do with health care. It is simply the foot in the door to further control every aspect of our lives. If you think it will make healthcare better in any way shape or form, think again. Recently people have been able to get our revered politicians on video admitting that they want to destroy the healthcare system that we currently have. Have a look at the following videos, they don't even try to hide it. A trojan horse, I don't think so, it is right out in the open. We need to stand up for our freedom, cause it being stolen from us!

New Moon! It's Coming....

Goofing around

I got a new toy a while back, nothing fancy, but for me a real treat. I decided to replace my very sad tripod with a wonderful new one. It is amazing what a new tripod can do for you. Most of them come with a quick release plate now, which means no more unscrewing the camera when you want it off the tripod, or better yet lifting it and manually turning it to get the shot. It goes to a wonderful 72", yeah I need a stool to use this which is nice for those overhead

shots. What can I say, it doesn't take much to get me excited, well when it comes to pictures that is.






So I had it out the other day and decided to play with it, and Colton comes in and says lets take some pictures together, hey, guess what I have a new tripod. Colton was so cute. He would say I will take one of you now. He would get it all lined up and tell me what to do, then say, "Oh I really like that one! Just one more". Too
funny.

This is what we ended up with:

Fireworks

We had a really good time for the fourth of July this year. We went to LaGrande to see my parents for a few days, and ended us staying till the 5th!

Curt helped my father with a very un-fun task of replacing a sump pump that is under a staircase in their basement. My husband is such a great guy, he never hesitates to help with this type of thing, especially for my folks. My dad has a real bad back, and had heart surgery in November, so he really appreciated it. Wish I had pictures of this. However, while he was under the stairs he and Colton & Krista managed to catch a salamander, all shiney and black, and a very cute green frog. Sure kept Colton busy for a few days!

Since we decided to stay for the 4th and watch the fireworks, we went to town to pick out a few sparklers for Colton. Curt didn't have any cash with his so I went back and picked them up. We got a call late that night saying that I had won the grand prize for the booth we purchased from, and ended up winning $200.00 worth of fireworks. Colton thought that he had died and gone to heaven! Needless to say by the end of the night the only ones that made it home with us, we set off with my brother David. David is a lot of fun, and Colton adores him. He is just david's little shadow whenever they are together.
The fireworks display was short this year but they sure were pretty!

(Actually the best one were the illegal ones that the neighbors set off!)
