Almost ready.

I've been in Rexburg for the last 10 days hanging out with the family before I go to New Zealand (tomorrow!!!!! Tomorrow is the day!!!!). Now I'm going to post pictures of everything I've been doing, because that is what blogs are for, right?


Constructed a family picture (Drew is in LA. For some reason I always think photoshopping him into pictures is funny. My parents wanted him in there. It was the best I could do:

Took pictures of the sunset:

and the cat (of course):

Made some cinnamon rolls with my mom:

My brother helped me make a bike rack in the garage (surprisingly my dad wouldn't let me leave my bike in my bedroom):

Kyle shot a deer:

I got my motorcycle endorsement! Now I'm ready for any adventure. I practiced all week on a real motorcycle but ended up taking the test on the scoot. I got 100% because the guy let me redo the tests I messed up on and he thought I was 16 year old so he went easy on me. I'm really glad Drew bought this scoot. It has come in so handy:

Sewed this swimsuit:

and this bag:

That's about it.

I read on Swissmiss about freelensing and tried it out. It did not turn out like the pictures on her blog. Maybe if I knew how to adjust my camera settings I could make it less white. Or maybe I had the lense too far away. Maybe not. Any advice? Casey showed me some lenses that are made to bend without you having to detach it from the camera. Maybe I just need one of those.

Love the swimsuit and bag, and I can't believe your dad wouldn't let you keep your bike in the bedroom.

Luckily my wife is more understanding. :)
