the weird black things around the bottom of the picture are my eye lashes. they sure look strange.

So i payed a guy 100 bucks today to tell me that i need glasses. it's true. but, i also got these cool pictures taken of the inside of my eye! i convinced them to email them to me. that center point where all the veins are running to is where all the optical nerves exit your eye and head out to your brain. millions of them! the dark smudgy part is the part of your eye where most of your optical receptors are. there are as many receptors in that part of the eye as there are in entire eye put together. i guess its kind of like the milky way. so, i have a picture of the in side of my left eye and my right. this is my left, the problematic one that needs lenses, the other one is basically fine. cool eh!?

we're a bit of a crazy bunch...

8... finalyl got it right! no blanket on grandma, everyone looking.. perfect.

This is Eva and brother in law Lance

This is my beautiful sister aimee and my niece Eva. they're both gorgeous.

there's something about the love of a family that really bids people together. this is my brother steve, giving my mom a hug. steve joined our family when he was 16. i was 11. he's been a part of our family ever since. i always prayed for a younger brother, then i got an older one. thanksgiving this year has really reminded me just how amazing my family is. i love you man.

we were sitting outside eating our ice cream and we saw this girl playing with this blocks on chains, swinging them around. courtney wanted to go try them - so we all dared her too. she went up to the girl and asked her if she could try, - turns out these blocks are supposed to be on fire... oh well, looks like she's having a good time,

the crew - from left to right - honorary cousin jessica, lando, honorary cousin chris (jess' husband), aundre, doogie, cousin russ and his wife joy.

ok where to start? lets start here, back in August. my whole extended family (about 300 of us) went up to whistler to all meet up and reunite. doogie came along. here are a few shots from a trip to the fudge shop. mmmhm.
