Sign (ok so they aren't so good but it was fun!)

Signs are a very useful part of society.
They give directions,they tell you where you are and where your going, they advertise and give you messages (Like gas is 99.9/leader), they warn you, you sing in and sign out.



But all signs communicate something!

Grown

I was thinking about the word grow for the scavenger hunt.
When I was pondering this word I thought of 2 things:
how nicely the flowers have grown through the frost and flooding
and how my cats have grown up and grown old.
So my pictures for May 23 are of:
the flowers beside my house
Theo on one of the first days we got him
and Tom and Theo last fall (before the never ending snow we were cursed with!)






They look so grown up and I can't believe flowers can grow in Manitoba this year... our rhubarb is also ginormous! I don't really like rhubarb though... its good in cake and jam but. yuck!

Fishy

This weeks word is AWESOME... well its not AWESOME its fish but that is AWESOME!

Fish are beautiful things... that taste disgusting unlike last weeks word, anyway it is perfect! Nothing dead this week... my fish are full of life! I LOVE the Zoo, and these pictures are from last years annual fathers day trip to the zoo! We've gone every year on Fathers day since.. like 7 or 8 years ago. I ALWAYS push to go because I love the zoo. All the animals and family bonding and the animals and the.... i don't know lol I just love the zoo! If that makes me a loser or immature so be it lol because I all ready knew I was! Any way here are my fish pictures from the Winnipeg Zoo. Those are real turtles and I even got some of the cast of Finding Nemo Nemo is hiding behind some coral reef plant stuff... I think it the enneminy or the plant he lives in.












I looked through all my zoo pictures and I miss the Zoo. =(
Anywho Enjoy! (remember to go to the zoo its AMAZING)

SORRY

So I haven't blogged in a while. I guess I've been a little busy, but nothing has happened. Lets see, I got a job at Co-Op as a cashier YAY! now my mom will stop bugging me lol and I'll get more then $5 an hour like i did for babysitting. Actually most times she gave me more any way... My beloved iPod drowned and so now its not working and that makes me want to cry... I always listen to my iPod... if you look at all the pictures I take of my self I'll be listening to my iPod probably 70% of the time. So this loss hit hard... I'm hoping it works when it drys out... you never know... I guess I'll keep you posted... I didn't do the scavenger hunt word UP. I did think about it though. There are SO many ways to use the word UP I didn't know how to choose what angle to go from. This weeks word is Chicken lol I wish I would have known that one day sooner... I would have taken a picture of supper yesterday... mmmmmmmmmmmm Chicken!! lol We buy Hutterite chicken its the best... lol they make good cheese too Mmm ;) lol Anyway that's it for now!

I got a job
I broke my iPod
I need to take a picture of chicken
lol
I summed my whole blog today into 3 lines!
(They probably would have fit on one though)

Expression

First I'll write my rant then I'll put the pics in kind of in the order I mention them.

People express themselves in many way (Leticia said your eyebrows are an important part of your expressions) I personally you my BIG mouth to express myself... not always a good thing but that's what I do... but you can use almost anything music, dance, art, notes and even your clothing to express the way you think or feel.





my big mouth

















My brother Eric doing a little jig before the bus comes (joyful probably)

















(I didn't take this picture or make this but I like it and 3/4 isn't bad)









































And this is Leticia, my "model" sister. lol showing off her fashion styling, thats how she expresses herself, with her clothes. ( Ashley doesn't really express herself so she is not featured in this blog)

Fresh

I'm going to keep this short and sweet.
I miss my FRESH fruit off my trees! ( and I can't wait until they grow again!)


Anywho.. I know the second picture of the choke cherries is blurry... sorry
I got to go act in the play now though so I am in a hurry...
I can't even remember if the word is FRESH but I think it is...

EEEEEEEEEEEEASY

Well unlike past weeks I didn't need a dictionary for this weeks Scavenger hunt word! I didn't even have to look far for my inspiration. lol I love my cats... one day my family was going to go to a family get together at my aunts house so I went to check on my cats and when I go to the back I see this:



lol
This is my kitten. lol He is almost one and allreay picking up bad habits! So this made me realize my cats have an easy life. they get fed in bed and can sleep as much as they want... oo the life of a cat. I have some funny pictures of Theo for you.

lol like I said, he has got some bad habits but I love him any way. ( this was set up but he attacked me when I tried to take it away. lol it wasn't even open... my dad's had that beer for a while though, so I'm not sure if its even good.)

CHANGE

The Saturday word of the week for march 7th was change. I think that was a good word choice for the time of year as winter changes into summer we are caught in the beginning of spring. so on Saturday I took note of all the change going on around me.

Snow changes to water, which changes to ice in the night... ice sucks, but that's besides the point! so that is a puddle in ice that has snow around it!







People changed the way they think about me... ( I know I would have if I saw me taking pics of myself while walking down the street. lol It was SUPER fun though!)










Day

Changed











To night!


I found some change in my room.









Some things hardly change at all.

Change is all around us... we can't stop it... for better or worse it has to come. We just take it one day at a time and we'll be fine... I hope you enjoyed the pics and my views on/of change.

Good Happy Tuseday Morning

SOOOOO this morning I was VEEEEEEEEEEEERY BORED! YAY me!! So I Joined the Saturday scavenger hunt club thingy....... that should be fun.... well see... i prolly wont always post it on Saturday but its going to be super fun anyway.
I haven't blogged in a long time and I have NO PICTURES on here lol but we'll do it!! Here are some pictures... I took this picture in my backyard.... i really like the coloring in the sky and the shape of the tree. I love that there is a feild right behind our house. It gives me an amazing veiw of the sun set, I have a pretty good view of sun rises to but we have houses in front of us so it would be weird, the people would think that I was stalking their house. LOL or profiling their house or something. That would be great! I can hear them now... they'd probably be talking in German but it would probably go something like...
"You know that crazy neighbor girl?"
"yeah Dave and Lisa's daughter"
"yeah, she was taking pictures of me eating breakfast again"
"I'll call the police next time"
lol
maybe..... so I can't take pictures of the sunrise but I love the sunset its more romantic anywho!! Isn't that beautiful?? lol
I LOVE IT!! So pretty and romantic!lol For Manitoba in the middle of winter anyway! lol SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO COLD, but it was worth it in the end, I think....
This is a picture (the one on the right) I took at a house down my street I really like the line of the fence and the shadow of the fence on the snow... its a cute fence.... I want a cute fence... we don't have a fence.... Well we have an underground fence that keeps my dog on the yard, only when she's wearing the shock caller, witch is broken right now... lol she doesn't know that.... she stays on the yard pretty well now though. I love my dog, Hannah, she's a black lab and she's SUPER cute.
