For those of you who have been asking me what I look like and all that, I've finally learned and mastered - or somewhat anyway - the scanner at the library here. I couldn't have done it without the help of my good friend, Mr. Whackbar, though. I think that I've warned just about everyone that I put a picture of on here that they were going to be featured and famous on the net, but I don't think they quite understood about what I meant by that one...*laughs* They will, though, oh yes, they will...*grins* Anyway, here are some pictures of my friends and family - not ALL of my friends and family are pictured here, though, due to my lack of photo samples of them all for your perusal. So, please forgive the fact that there are only a few people shown here, but in different photos.
This is my brother, on his graduation day from Illinois State University. I'm proud to say that he graduated Cum Laude. Oh yeah, and he's married!!! WOO-WOOOO!!! *grin* It's kind of weird to realize that my brother is at that age where he COULD BE and IS married - almost makes me feel old....Oh well. =)
These are my other "brothers"...hehehe!!!...This is my "alien-type" shot of them. The one on the left is Wolfie, shortened for Wolfgang, and the one on the right is Charlie, shortened from Charlemagne. They are miniature German schnauzers, pure-bred, loud, cute, and my babies...*grins*
These are my kids....well, not really mine, but they're close enough. They're actually my neighbor's kids, but I babysit them a lot, and they are the sweetest kids....the sweetest kids that my mom and dad have told me that I'm not going to be having as I was such a stinker when I was little...hehehe!!!...anyway, from left to right they are Timmy, TJ, Lindsay, Grandma and little Courtney...Aren't they all adorable??? =)
Well, this is the main group of people that I hang with - or rather bounce off of/fly around in a caffeine/sugar-induced high...hehehe!!!! From left to right is Mr. Whackbar, who is trying to show one and all his tongue burble, Dan, who is just being himself, Becky/Babs is being quite calm for once, and then there's Kelly, surprised by the flash, and then there's Nellie, my roomie, on the end, hamming it up for the camera, somewhat unusual, but I like it...she doesn't though...thinks she looks like a dork, but she doesn't...*grins*...I could've put a different photo up here of her for that one...*wicked grin*
This is all of us girls and Mr. Whackbar dressed up for our winter formal here at WSU, on Dec. 14, 1996. From left to right is Nellie, my infamous roomie, Corrie, myself, Bethanie, Babs, Crista, and Mr. Whackbar...=)
Here, Kelly and Babs are sitting in the beautiful sunshine during Lourdesfest, which was on May 3, 1997....the weather was beautiful, and the bands were decent...=)
These aren't exactly family...*grins*...but I got them from my mom for good luck on finals for winter term, and they were absolutely beautiful...plus, here is a very slight glimpse into what my room looks like...*laughs*...not really, because all you can see is my loft, or rather, part of my loft, and my clothes, which were hanging to dry because the dryers here never get your clothes dry on the first time around, and I'm too cheap to spend the $.50 for another hour's worth drying, that's not going to do any more good than the first one...*shrugs and laughs*...it's HUGE!!! The loft, I mean...My dad made it for me...*smile*...I'm going to have to ask him to cut about 4-5 inches off of it, so I don't hit my head on the ceiling, though....=)
These two pictures are of Freddy, who is now dead, but was also one of my "brothers" - he preceded Wolfie and Charlie...=)
And last, but not least, at all, is Chris - my honorary brother in Virginia, and my roomie's boyfriend - with his brother, Kevin...(Chris had the flu when this picture was taken.) I FINALLY HAVE A PICTURE!!!!! *grin* HEHEHEHHE!!!! Read it and weep, or whatever....*grins*...I love this picture, though....=)
