Good-bye and Hello!

Yes, I am leaving this blog. I'm going to leave it up, but not post anymore. It's too annoying to find time to write a paragraph about stuff, so I made a new blog called I Spy. On that one, I will post pictures of anything, but not write about it. So, please please please come by and leave comments, I will be posting on that one way more than on this one!

Oreo

Well, if any of you know my moms blog, then you probably saw this picture before, but since my camera was sent in to get fixed becasue it had a crack in it, and my sister won't let me use hers, I 'stole' this one from my mom. =] Oreo gets let out everyday for a few hours to free graze on our lawn. He knows that if he comes to our door he is guaranteed to get a treat or two or three or five...varying from teddy grahams to graham crackers to hard bread to apples, to waffle. haha (he really has eaten waffle, and liked it. =] ) So now whenever we let him our now he makes a beeline to the front door, and usually its open to let some fresh air in so we can all see him with his ears perked and begging for food. =]

Camp

This post is long overdue, but I still decided to share it. These are from camp... I rode a horse named Grappa, aka the best horse ever! All my tent-mates were amazing and just all in all, camp is amazing. The first lesson with Grappa (we rode twice a day) he was really bad, and stuborn. I could barely get him to trot. But, all the other lessons, once he learned he couldn't get away with it, he was fantastic. Like, AWESOME. He would do whatever I asked, and he's also an AMAZING jumper. So, it was perfect. BUT, the last time I rode him, when my dad was watching, it was like we presses Rewind to the first lesson. It was trying to get a rock to jump. He didn't pay any attention to my leg or anything. It was really really disappointing. We were going to jump "the course" for the demo, which was like 10 jumps in a course that were all really high and there were triples and everything, but 8 classes wanted to do it for the demo, and only 3 could, so our group wasn't picked. SO, we had to do a stupid cavaletti course, which everyone was mad about. But, we were able to go into the jump course ring and jump "the wall." That's the third picture up there. ^^ I look really weird, because I could barely get him over it, it was so hard. I was exhausted and dissapointed. My good-byes were really sad, I didn't want to go. I had made such awesome friends. And Grappa. I rode Grappa two years ago at camp too, he's just so cool.

OK, that's all for nowwww. =]]

Mirabel

This is Mirabel, a stray who comes to my dad's house everyday for her food, which she gets. Obviously, she's had a home before because she's not scared of people, she loves them! Look at the first picture, of me petting her, she loves it! It's also obvious that she doesn't have one anymore. She's skinny, dirty, and untaken care of. I think she is the prettiest cat ever. Not only because she is all white and long haired but because of her eyes. Enlarge the pictures to see better!!!!!! Aren't they gorgeous? Omg, I love them so much. She is just soo pretty, I can't believe she doesn't have a home.. :[
My cousin named her Mirabel. I think it suites her, cuz its like fancyish or proper, and she is like fancy.

Editing Experiment

So. I found this site, picnik.com and you can edit and add stuff to your photos! so, i took these two photos of myself and played around with the things. I am in looovee with the first one. I actually don't really know why, maybe cuz it matches so well or something, but I really like it. I did 'focal blur' so only my face is not blurred and then i put that frame on and then i wrote woahhhh. lol.
The next one I put the frame and 2 hearts, trying to match the colors. I also cropped it first from a different picture. They also have a really good red-eye removal tool, that makes it look real. Except if you have blue eyes, because it's always brown, but can you even get red eye with blue eyes...?

well, i didn't know waht to post, so i figured I'd show you these. Hope it wasn't boring or confusing.

My Future Dogs

A Newfoundland Dog named Sailor

My favorite book when I was little
about a Newfoundland named Sailor

An Irish Wolfhound (no name yet..)

A Bernese Mountain Dog named Ooby.

I looovvveeee big dogs. Well, and little dogs. All kind of dogs, really. But big dogs are just so cool. So, when I'm older I want to get big dogs. A Newfoundland named Sailor,-which I got from my favorite children's book about a Newfoundland named Sailor-a Bernese Mountain Dog named Ooby, because they are really pretty dogs and I like that name, and the newest addition is an Irish Wolfhound. See, our neighbors have 2 Jack Russels and just got an Irish Wolfhound named Gunner. He is about 6 months old and he's HUGEEEEE. But, he is sooo sweet, and so cute!! He's not even full grown yet! I don't know a name for an Irish Wolfhound yet...

So, I just wanted to share this, and I have no clue if it will really happen, but right now, I hope so. :]
