I am getting ready to move into an apartment and for the first time live without a roommate. One of the best parts about this, is that I get to design the space exactly how I would like it to look. The catch is, is that I am on a budget. Lucky for me we have extra pieces of furniture here and there and with a little tweaking I don't have to sacrifice my design aesthetic.

Snuggles

Little Benny doing what he does best making mimi's and looking cute.

Gone FIshing

We have a fishing boat, but all summer the it was in the shop. So just recently got it back, and my brother and I took it out on the lake. While we didn't catch a thing we did see this Great Blue Heron, and he was having much more luck than we ever did with the fish.

Rango

In the summer at my house we tend to have all kinds of wildlife and this little cutie was the smallest lizard I had ever seen. I had been cleaning off the porch of paper mache from a project that I had been working on (Hopefully some pictures soon)and went inside for a second and when I came back out this little guy was getting a drink of water from the puddles.

At the Range

In the month of June I turned 21 and for most this is a grand milestone in their life. An opportunity to get smashed and buy booze, well I don't drink so my twenty first birthday was just a birthday celebrated with my family. But one perk of coming of age was that I can now purchase my own handgun, and that was a perk that I exercised a week after my birthday with a combative Colt .22 Scout. I must say I am very happy with my purchase and it is just beautiful.

A Post Card.

This is actually a post card that I made for my best friend. I haven't seen him in quite a while and I miss him dearly.
