plenty of time to blog

Ok. One thing I'm positive that this blog lacks is pictures. I'm doing my part in moving towards remedying this by making motion towards buying a digital camera, but these kinds of decisions take time. Especially in my world.

So instead I was looking at what pictures I already have on my computer and came across a bunch from our LQ year, in particular, some that I downloaded from Susana's camera near the end of the year. We had some fantastic times. It is funny how at the time of some of the most memorable moments you are totally unaware that good memories are being made. For example, I was looking at some shots from a winter retreat we went on with the campus group, and realized that some of the best moments were when we were relaxing around the table playing cards and just being our goofy selves.

I miss you all so very much! So to facilitate the reminiscing, I've included a few of my favourite shots, with the reasons why I like them so much.

A candid shot. Sus, Joanne, and Ruth. Relaxed and genuinely amused by whatever is happening at the other end of the table (Adam??). There was a lot of good laughter that night.

I don't even remember what game we were playing, but I do remember laughing with abandon until i could feel all my stomach muscles.

This was some silly game that Ron had come up with. I was a bit skeptical, but I love this shot because of the serious way we're looking at each other (even though I know it was kind of a silly moment).

Does anyone remember what Ron was doing??

Susana. I think you look good here.

CHRISTY! I don't have any shots of you from that night so I had to include this one from the day we went on a sleigh ride. There were so many good times that weekend.

Sus, I love this one because it shows your beautiful "I don't care what you think" spirit. I love that part of you.

One of the things that we were laughing at so hard that night was the ridiculous pictures Ron was taking of himself with Susana's camera.


A little more than a tad scary...

There are a ton more pictures that I would have liked to include, so there may have to be another of these reminiscing picture-posts. But for now, I hope you enjoy these!

Oh. And the reason for the title of this blog is that I am home sick today (for the 2nd day in a row). As I spent all of yesterday asleep and resting my body, today has been left open for a few naps and some time on the ol' laptop.

Btw, I think our site needs a shot of the three of us to add a little personality to it. What do people think of this one?
