It's Official!

I'm headed to Illinois in May! 

Dad booked the one way ticket last night. I fly out of Boston on Friday after school is done at 12:30 and get into Peoria at 3:56 (to be exact :) I'm flying out and driving home with David with all his stuff. I'll get to see my family out in Tremont on Friday and sleep at Grandpa & Grandma's Friday night. Then on Saturday we'll head to Champaign so David can pack (or that's the tentative plan anyways :)

And I got my other computer back so now I can put all my pictures on there and get them up on the blog, so sometime I'll be putting more picture posts!

Pictures from the Past

These are some random pictures I had on my flashdrive from when my Aunt made a slideshow for my Grandpa's birthday. They are in no specific order (as you will notice). These are all scanned in case you are wondering about the funny coloring or the crooked edges :) Enjoy!

Shoveling in Suits

Sound fun? ;)

The last weekend in December we had a big snowstorm (remember?) Well, that weekend there was a wedding and there were a lot of visitors coming out. They all came out on a big bus and didn't get in until 7 or 8 PM. The Saturday night singing was canceled, but the wedding still happened! We were having a family overnight, so we went and picked them up from the "bus stop."

Sunday morning Evan and David went outside to shovel the driveway before we went to church, so that it could start melting a little.

The pictures aren't that close but you can still kind of see that they are wearing suits :)

Christmas in VT

The Wednesday after Christmas we went up to Vermont to visit our aunt, uncle, and cousin. Here's the pics!


Sliding down their driveway

Being tourists and taking pictures in the snow :) All the pictures of us 5 kids Carla had her eyes closed, so this is the best one!




Look! It snowed when I was taking the picture!...but I guess snow usually comes from the sky not the ground next to us ;)





I told Dad to sled down the driveway so I could take pictures. If I click and hold down the shutter button it will take a bunch of pictures.

This is how our "photo shoot" ended! Dad thought he was gonna run into me :)

Evan knocked the curtain off the door (its magnetic) when he went outside to go sledding. So he had to hang it back up!

Lately...

Hey there! It's been a long time since I last appeared on here :) I've been pretty busy with school lately....here's a little taste of what I'm working on

Architecture in Connecticut: A Pictorial History
Project 1 for my Graphic Design class. We had to choose between churches, campuses, or bridges and take pictures of different ones in CT and then make a brochure/booklet.

This is the front cover. The back cover has the other half of the picture with some text in the corner.

This is one of the spreads. All the spreads had to have the same exact layout, just different pictures and text for the different churches (obviously:) 


Now onto my web design class....
Project 1 was to create a website for a movie trailer. 

I don't know if everyone has seen the movie Elf, but it is a Christmas movie so my background is wrapping paper and then I have the bow going across to make it look like a present.

If you click on the tab "cast" then the information about the cast members will pop up over the synopsis. And if you click on "synopsis" then it the synopsis will pop up over the cast. (Get it?)

Well that's what I've been doing lately besides shoveling off the roof!

I still have more pictures from Christmas to put up so hopefully those will be up soon!
