More Old School Photos

Here is another old school photo found while looking through a box of old photos.

It's my sister Michelle, my friend Nic (whom I've known since Kindergarten!) and myself.

This photo was taken in the spring of 1989. Nic and I were 7 and Michelle was 5. So crazy.

Too Legit!

Yes!

I wake up to find an email in my inbox that says MC Hammer is now following me on Twitter!

Photos of Axl Dog

I was browsing through my iPhoto library and found these ridiculously cute and old photos of our dog Axl back in 2001. He was still a tiny little puppy! Apparently, he was a runty little newfoundland that grew up into our monster of a dog (though still small compared to normal "newfie" standards).
