I can dream right

It has been so cold here the last couple of months and I am done with it! I am sooo ready for spring-no wait summer, to get here. I hate being cold all day and I hate having to hang out upstairs for the majority of the day. I hate how winter here in Utah last a gazillion years.  Monday was such a beautiful day that I was able to get a nice 5 mile run in and I figured that Tuesday would be gorgeous to go on another run. I was wrong! It freakin snowed! I was so ticked and got all blue all over again. There is something about winter that makes me all gloomy and down right depresses. Maybe it's because we are inside all day. I go outside and I am cold all darn day. Brock and I stay upstairs as much as we can because it's a lot warmer up there. There are days when I dream that I'm back on a beach in Hawaii or the Philippines just soaking up the warm sun. The sand in between my toes, me in a beach chair with a good book. Oh how I need to go somewhere where I can enjoy the weather without wondering if it's going to snow. Ahh I can dream right.

Anywho, I have been trying to learn my camera a bit and learning how to edit some pictures and it's been fun. I don't have any camera lens just my camera with the kit it came with but I've had fun taking pictures and editing them. I don't want to do it as a business but it's fun to take pictures of my family. I'm going to this little club meeting that teaches you how to use your camera and I am learning lots of cool things. The really neat thing is the guy that has set this up also tells us where we can get equipment for a reasonable price. Hopefully I am able to get a few things that I want so I can take better pictures. For now enjoy the ones I've taken so far.



 Here are all the cousins and I enlarged this and gave it to my in-laws as a gift. My mother in law has wanted a picture of all the grand kids together.

I took some pictures of my friends kids and I loved this little picture. Her boys are cute and crack me up.



 I was playing around with this photo. I was going to do more to it but it took forever and I was done.



 This is my sister in law's family. I'm the best at editing or taking pictures but I have lots of fun playing around and learning how to use the programs. I am learning while playing around. 

Well that is all for now. I thought I would post again and put more pictures up to make up for my lack of posting. Off I go now to dream some more about laying out on a warm beach somewhere.
