Camping trip




As you can see the pictures above were from our exiting camping trip to seven springs. the one thing people don't tell you is if you happen to camp when it is raining the stream near by turns into a river and the ground turns into a muddy mess. the night we got there our tent got blown around and the cover( supposedly water prof) crashed on us with about a foot of water on it. The next morning we were packing up to go home and the sun came out so we moved to another none muddy spot and spent another night again it froze our tents and almost froze us.

New Orleans

While in New Orleans we went on a swamp tour and were lease than surprised when the time came to hold one. To extend, who thought that an alligator would eat marshmallows bigger than its head.

Photography



As you see I started taking after my dad in photography. These were pictures taken a while ago while we were on our way to a anniversary party. Of coarse the truck brook down but taking pictures is one of the best and most entertaining things I have done.

Good old trucks


My dad recently got a new(old) truck. Even though it is a 1963 truck with a few harsh dents it runs like a beauty most of the time and I do not mean to lead you in the direction that most of the time is only about half of the time. Putting the problems aside it is a great truck.

Pip's great escape

pip was out in the yard eating grass and i was not paying very close attention to him. My dad said he was coming up the drive way and still not paying close attention I answered O.K. Obviously, he got lost and for the about 24 hours he was gone, but we found him the next day and he was under the table as happy as can be.

Bonneville Salt Flats

This is a picture that my dad took when he went to the Bonneville Salt Flats. It is where people interested in breaking world records for speed on cars, Motorcycles, and trucks.

Switching roles

This picture was taken in our backyard. We were bored and had nothing to do so I took his camera and we went to go take pictures. He was complaining because of me wasting his battery, taking to long, etc. { plus the fact that it was hot outside didn't help}, they still turned out pretty well!

Day in Colorado

We were in Colorado and decided to take all six dogs to a lake. We forgot there were tubes in the car and we drove all the way there then we realized they were not inflated. We turned around and got lost looking for a gas station to fill them up.

Horse Jumping


This video is cool because most videos don't show the jump up close and what happens when you make it over and when you don't.

My Dad and I.

This was taken when I was three. I was with my dad and we were looking at his B.M.W which he sold about a year later, but I now have my own bike,"of course I cant ride it. Although, I still go on rides with my dad.

My cousins and I

This is my dad my cousins and I in Naperville, IL. We were in my grandma Jo's and grandpa Gene house and it was one of the few times we were sitting still.

Willie.

Willie is our three year old dog. He has improved so much in the year and a half we have had him. When we got him he would not even walk and now he knows tricks including sit, stay, come, down, shake, and we are working on "Bang You're Dead".

Horsing around

This is me riding a horse named Angel. I was seven when this picture was taken. I have been riding all my life and It is the most fun thing I have ever done. I love it.

Day before Christmas.

This picture was taken two days before Christmas. Me and my cousins were all sledding. We made the mistake of all going on together and did not notice the jump ahead. We went flying over it, but none of us ended up not on the sled when it landed.

Pip.


This picture of my turtle was taken two years ago, they really don't grow that fast. He is an African Spired tortoise. They are known as the second biggest tortoise in the world. They get to be 250 Lb. and more than 100 years old.

Biscuit and I.

My old dog was a border collie and golden retriever mix who's name was biscuit. We got him in 2007 and he died from a heart attack in 2010. He was the sweetest dog. I will never find another dog that was as loyal to me than him. Although he was a pain in the butt he was the best dog I have ever had.
