July 4th...

So I meant to post these FOREVER ago. This summer I kind of took a break from blogging. Not that I'm a huge blogger, but it was mostly just a summer of healing and dealing with stuff. I didn't do a lot. I didn't do anything exciting, but it was nice. The family drama was still there, but I think we're learning to deal with it better. We're just resigned to the fact that this is our life now. It's just going to be this way, and if it gets better...than super!!

On July 4th, we didn't do a whole lot. We were all just kind of bummed out. But I bought some sparklers so that I could do some light painting with Jake and Jaynie. Here are some of our pictures. The first ones are of us trying to figure out what we are doing!

I was trying to use a heart filter, this is the only time it worked

This was a lot of fun. I only wish I had bought the huge sparklers!!

Some more school...and Jake

The first two pictures are an assignment. The others are just because.

Mr. Jake is a Senior...whoa...That is bizarre to me. He decided he's going to UVU to play his trumpet.

They got mad at me for taking so many pictures, but it's because the two Palmer men are crap at pictures. This is the best one I got, which isn't saying a lot because it sucks.

Of course when they aren't paying attention, they are a lot more photogenic.

Boring Baseball post...

 So Jake is a Senior. As a result, on my days off I'm usually at one of his games. I would post more pictures from my class, but we are doing film, and I haven't scanned those pictures in the computer yet. I'm also still trying to get some other pictures from Thailand. So hopefully, I'll have some more interesting posts coming up. I drove down to Wasatch Academy in Mt. Pleasant with my Mom, Dad, and Oliver. We had fun. Here are some pictures of Jake playing ball...

Too bad that it's blurry. I finally got a ball hitting the bat shot! Okay, I really don't care that much. Sports photography isn't my thing. But I know my parents and Jake really like me to take them.

Now here are some of my favorite subject!

I'm kind of loving how warm it's been at the games. I've got quite a nice tan going on...

Congratulations!

Congratulations Jake!

This big stinker just won the John Philip Sousa Award at his school.

A Band award that is usually reserved for Seniors.

I love this kid.
