March 5, 2008--Pictures from my camera

We finally found the cord to the digital camera the other day, so I was able to upload all the pictures on it. I had 95 pictures! I'm really quite surprised the batteries lasted that long. The ones at the end, though, the pictures that we'd finished up of the old house, turned out rather fuzzy. I do have a few pictures I can show you though that my sister took and sent to me. If I had been taking pictures I would have taken different ones, but at least I have something. We also have some on our cell phone, but I don't know how to put them on the computer yet or even if we can. Maybe we'll figure that out eventually. Last time we had a cell phone all we did was call people on it.

Out of the 95 pictures on there, 15 of them were pictures that the kids had taken of some Beanie Buddies that a couple at church gave them, 18 were pictures they had taken of themselves "skating" on the frozen puddle at the old house, 8 were pictures of a picture that Joy drew (I'm displaying one of those below, because it's rather cute) and 10 were other various pictures the kids took. No wonder the batteries were low by the time Erick took the camera back for more pictures of the old house!

I had also taken a lot of pictures of the homeschool talent show, so I'll share one of those here as well, and also a couple of pictures of the installation service.

La dee da, waiting on the photos to upload to Facebook so I can link them here... *

Isn't dial-up wonderful?

I think it's faster to load to Facebook instead of Imagecave. Besides, my free account there is starting to get full. Ah! Here we are!

These are pictures of the installation service:

This is the District Superintendent and his wife, and Erick and me.

Below is a picture of Joy, Sarah, Abby, and my littlest sister dancing in the talent show. They were so beautiful and I was so proud of them.

This is one of the eight pictures Joy had taken of the picture she had drawn. I figured one was enough to show here.


  These last four pictures are the ones of the old house after we finished fixing it up.

Me painting trim on a window:

The view of a closet. With a chair in it. (Did I mention these weren't the shots I would have taken?)

The view of the livingroom by the front door, at a precarious angle.

The kitchen sink

*On my original blog, I had to load up each picture to Facebook (or Image Cave) and then link the URL. This is one of the reasons I had been considering moving to this site even before FCNs forums closed down--some of my links had broken and I had no option to fix ithem.
