Heather, Ryan and Vinny relocated to Grosse Pointe Park and I visited their new apartment and took some more adorable pictures of Vinny who is now 4 months old. He is so hilarious and their new place is super cute :)
I am making a concerted effort to take more pictures this summer. Starting with a few of my favorite classmates from my first summer class. Dave and Nicole are two of my favorite people at Eastern and I met them both in the Fall in our Women's History class. I really like this class so far and it seems to be going incredibly fast. I just hope I find some inspiration to write my final paper...hmm I will keep thinking.
On our last day, Frank and I were able to meet up with Elinor, Pauline and Charlie the family that I spent most of my last year at Western documenting. It was so great to see them and they looked just the same. Pauline was her same old spunky self, she asked me how old we thought she was and I teased her and said 80, to which she proudly responded that she was 96. I don't think my last year in school would have been the same without these wonderful people and I am so glad we got a chance to visit before we headed back up to Michigan. The drive home provided some mild entertainment, including the Touchdown Jesus.
Frank and I drove down for a quick trip to Bowling Green May 15-17. Friday night we met Meg for dinner at El Mazatlan, where Meg and I shared a pitcher of Margaritas and lots of laughs. We discussed the concept of a reality TV show called Real Big Love which involved Meg and I both marrying Frank for insurance purposes making Meg and I sisterwives. Matt joined us briefly before heading back to the lab for the entire weekend to finish the EOY slideshow. After dinner we visited Sara at Spencer's which was crazy busy and fun.
While I was home for mother's day weekend, I snapped some pictures in my backyard. I love nature pictures (feel free to pass judgement all you Photoj's out there) because it is how I first became interested in photography about ten years ago. I used to head out to my neighborhood in Lansing armed my Grandfather's Canon tlb, which I still have and should throw some film in for old times sake.
Continuing with the animal/pet theme that my blog has had lately, here are some cute pics of my kitty. For all the trouble he causes meowing at me in the middle of the night, Gus sure is entertaining!
