July Photos

on Friday, July 31, 2009

July has been a busy month! It was a good month, but we had a LOT going on. Probably more than we should have bitten off, but whatever, it was a fun month. So, here are some shots from July. Hope you enjoy!

We headed to Hershey Park on July 3. We generally get there once a summer because we get free passes, though they have to be used by July 4th. So, nothing like waiting til the last minute, huh? LOL! We went on a ride that you sit on and just go over part of the park. This is our feet over the river that runs through the park. At the bridges over the river, you can feed the ducks. I like doing that. And it's only a quarter to get the corn. Or you can be cheap like me and pick up what people drop and feed them that. LOL!

Us on the ride. It's such a great ride to take. I like it because you can just sit back and check out the scenery. Plus your feet get to dangle while you ride it, making it seem dangerous! LOL!

The following weekend, we headed to NJ for a wedding. Brian's cousin from Louisiana was getting married and we were invited! We were actually pretty excited about it, as we haven't seen these guys since 2003. The wedding was GORGEOUS! The bride was EXQUISITE! It really was a wonderful day and just a lot of fun.

Had to post this. The bride came up to the table and grabbed the camera. She said she had to take our photo because it's hard to get your picture taken when it's just two people. LOL! She is very sweet!

So, yea. I have a habit of taking a zoomed in photo, then wanting to take a self-portrait. I don't know how many times I've done this with THIS type of photo as a result. Normally, I just delete them, what's the point in keeping them? But, for some reason, I did not delete this one. I think it's kinda funny. So, if you wanted to know what my teeth looked like up close - there ya go!

Another photo from our trip to New York City. This is cheating since the bar tender took it, but whatever. Our friend Maryrose (in red) wanted to go to Burp Castle, so we headed over there after dinner. This is us hanging out at the Belgium bar. It was a lot of fun and the beer was good...if not sweet. Would completely go back!

Yea, you would think this photo is strange, but it's not. Stitch and I had a beer at the Sam Adams Celebrates Atlanta bar in the Atlanta airport. We missed our flight to Vegas by ONE MINUTE, so we grabbed beers here. Stitch was for my friend Kim, whose wedding we were heading to. I love that this is a self-portrait and I got the beer, Stitch AND me in!

Not the most flattering photo of me and my friend is a little blurry, but at this point in the night, we were both feeling a little blurry! LOL! We played some beer pong at O'Shea's in Las Vegas. We did not do so well, lost 2 of 3. :-( Sad. so very sad...

All dressed up! My friend and beautiful bride Kim. This was the whole reason we went to Las Vegas - to spend her special day with her and her new husband. Thank you guys! It was a great time!

What About Some Photos from June?

on Thursday, July 2, 2009

It's sorta been a while. About a month, but here are some photos from June. :-)

Brian and I were lucky enough to get tickets to a Hershey Bears play-off game on June 6th against the Manitoba Moose. This was Game 3 of the Calder Cup finals. It was a great game and a great Hershey win! Woohoo!

Here were are at Hershey again, except three days later and a victory shy of the Calder Cup. The Bears had a 3-1 lead going into the game and LOST. :-( They headed back to Manitoba to defeat the Moose, but not in front of the home crowd. We were sad.

My engagement and wedding rings. LOL! We were at a York Revolution game and I was having fun with the camera. I kept wanting a photo of my rings, but they always came out blurry. So, I tried again and it worked! My engagement ring is an opal. :-) Isn't it beautiful?

This is me on Sunday, June 28th in Baltimore, MD. I ran my first 5k at the Baltimore Women's Classic 5k that morning. My goal was to run the whole thing, no matter what the time. And I did! I ran the entire race, finished in 45:25 (which was 5 minutes faster than I thought I would), and didn't come in last. Yea me! It was a good day.
