Artsy pic of a fishing vest.

Sorry that I'm so behind in my posting... I was in Montana all week and wanted to wait until I could get the photos off of my camera to post. So here's a shot that I took just before we went floating down the river and fly fished!

Cooking with my chef of a grandma! We had some struggles but it turned out well, no worries.

The scenery around here is phenomenal... I love the Michigan beaches but this is great.

206/365

Our first full day in Montana... my grandmother is a fantastic photographer.

Missing my ten days with great people and cool mugs.

Selfies don't always work out as planned......... I didn't mean for this to look as narcissistic as it is.

202/365

Melting pot with dmalburg tonight. I'm cheap and used a Groupon... yes I know how lame that is.

Erik got a bullseye. That's a funny looking word. Weird.

Did some painting with kieleolson14 the other day!

IT'S MY 200TH BLOG POST. So yeah, this is exciting. The only new pictures I have right now are from Africa so I'm sorry if I seem redundant. But this girl was excited to see us and I'm excited that we have survived 200 days in 2014. Only 165 to go - make them great!

Still missing this building and all the people inside it. A hospital that gives kids the care they need for FREE?! Surgeries, check ups, casts, etc. There are some seriously good people in this world and a bunch of them work in this hospital alone. Refreshing to see how genuine people can be.

Dinner selfie con mi madre... PF Changs salted caramel cake is to die for and I don't even care how many times I've said it.

Not to brag or anything... but I went on an AFRICAN SAFARI. Okay, I'm bragging. Most incredible week full of culture shock and a lot of learning about myself and how I value the 'stuff' and people in my life. Everyone should go to Africa.

195/365

Missin' this sweet kid.

I'M BACK FROM AFRICA.

194/365

WOO HOO SHE'S HOOOOMMMMEEEE!!!!!!

If you've been following along for the ride of the guest blog, thanks for joining. If you've hated every moment of it, don't worry, Court will be back with a boatload of Africa pictures tomorrow. Be excited - I've seen a few, and they're pretty cool.

Peace out.

A wise friend once said "hey, that one reminds me of Harry Potter 6!"

To each their own.

Great memories from what feels like forever ago. Just look at the date... if that doesn't splat your brain, I don't know what will.


Get it... like splat...   yeah.

A sneak peek at my future station.

In case you're worrying - no need. Courtney will be back in like two days. But hey - who's counting? (me)

Oh deer! Surgery yesterday and I forgot to post! Here's a cool wildlife pic to make up for yesterday, doe.

Although a photo of no considerable quality, it does take me back to one of the best
live performances I've ever seen.

But now, it's time for me to go to bed. U2?

As long as we're posting from one end of the country, we might as well hit up the other side as well. This way you guys will think that I travel as much as Courtney and therefore that I'm as cool as her (a common misconception).

188/365

Yeah. That's right.

We like to get high.



(but not actually that's gross)

Lights will guiiiiiideeee you home..... (from Africa)


A personal favorite from a few years back in one of Court's favorite places.

As an added bonus, today's post also includes free wisdom... you know, like the kind you would find on a tea bag or something.

Happy July 6, y'all. Keep smiling.

COURTNEY GOT TO SEE FIREWORKS FROM A PLANE I'M SO JEALOUS. But yeah. This picture is in honor of the blog-pro-awesome-person who is currently at about hour seven of fifteen on a flight to Johannesburg. That girl does cool stuff.

Anyway, now onto real business. As dedicated guest blogger, I now pronounce this the official temporary blog of me coping with not being able to see Courtney for like ten days. It'll be tough, yes, but I promise to uphold the high standards of the blog while sitting comfortably in the safety of Grand Rapids, while Courtney can handle dealing with the lions and giraffes and what have you in Africa. Get ready for awesomeness.

184/365

Headed off to Malawi, Africa tomorrow... Yes I am terrified. But it'll be great and since I know you all love my blog oh-so-much, there will be a surprise guest blogger. So I hope that goes over well. If not, just ignore my blog and know it is not me.

WISH ME LUCK.

THE YEAR IS HALF OVER. Can you believe that? Isn't it crazy? Half way over. We are half way to Christmas. No way.

Aw look at baby Dylan.

That one time I got to use that macro lens... golden

Tonight at work a lady came up to us with a camera and asked us to pose like this. I don't know why she wanted a photo of the concession stand workers in the most ridiculously cheesy position but it was fun nonetheless. So sad it's my last night until next year.
