Matt Wright-Photographer

Back in March, Matt got a new camera for his b-day ( Thank you Buy.com Reward Points). Its a pretty sweet camera... I have no clue how to use it. But Matty has read books and got new computer editing programs, and I must say i'm super impressed at the great little photographer he's turned out to be. He loves it.

You all know how much we love our dogs Blue and Zoey, so it wont suprise you when I tell you that they are his models. They are probably the most photogenic dogs ever. I had to share some of his pictures with everyone. *sigh* I'm so proud :)

A little late... but heres the beginning of our update :)

Our friends Monica and Derek Johnson invited us to go to Roosevelt Lake with them for the 4th of July. We stayed at a cabin that Monica's boss was renting and spent the whole weekend out on his boat. It was the PERFECT 4th of July. I didn't get as tan as I wanted to... but we had a blast!

We drove into Payson for fireworks, it was probably the best fireworks show I've ever seen (besides Disneyland). A big thanks to the Johnson's and Apples for an awesome 4th :)

MY WEEKEND GOAL...

No, its not to clean our whole apartment (which seriously needs to happen).. or to finish my 2000 piece puzzle of Las Vegas that i've been working on for 3 weeks...or to beat Matt at Brickbreaker (which is my goal in life now)... My goal is to UPDATE OUR BLOG :) And this post doesn't count. I feel like we've done so much over the past month and I haven't posted any of it. Matt has been taking awesome pictures with his new camera and they deserve to be blogged about. I cant believe I was so lazy I had to post 2 videos in a row. I'm not assuming anyone actually gets on here to see what the Wrights are up to. But I have to post this or I wont do it.

T-Swizzle

Matt is gonna roll his eyes when he sees this... but I cant help myself :)

I LOVE Taylor Swift. I think she's adorable. I love her songs, her personality...I want to be her friend. Luckily my little sister Ali is basically exactly like her, so close enough.

Well she did a rap with T-Pain for the CMT music awards and its the greatest thing ever. Ask Matt, I watch it 10 times a day. I cant get enough. Its so funny. Watch it!

IM SO EXCITED!!!

Happiest Place on Earth :)

Earlier this month we went to the Happiest Place on Earth :) DISNEYLAND!!! We went with sister and her lil family, their friends, and we took our 5 yr old newphew Kolby with us. (Thanks Petersens for watching Blue! And thanks mom and dad for watchin Zoey!)

I had never been to California Adventures before and I loved it! We didn't get a chance to go on any of the roller coasters... next time. But i definately cant wait to do Hollywood's Tower of Terror again :) Poor Kolby... we made him go on it with us.

It was so fun seein all the kids having fun, thats the best part. I cant wait to go back, Disneyland never gets old for me.

Snake Whispering

Last night matt ran in from letting the dogs out "Heather, come out here, hurry! Theres a snake!" I guess Matt saw all the dogs playing with something, then he saw that 'something' start moving. We ran out and sure enough there was a black and white California King Snake slithering around. It was a pretty decent size too.

Now, I LOVE snakes. i've had 3 Ball Pythons-Bubbles, Malyka, and Knot. And i've had 1 King snake-Twizzler... In fact, Twizzler may still be roaming my parents house for all we know... I woke up one morning to find his cage empty and he hasn't been seen since. It took us a good 6 months tell my mom, my dad thought it was best she didn't know...unless she was the one to find him :S I used to get calls from friends to ask me to come move a snake from the middle of the road or out of their yard. They were all bull snakes so I knew they wouldn't really hurt me. Anyways, I was pretty excited. And while I was 99% sure this was a King Snake, and that it wasn't poisonous, we were extra careful capturing it. We would have left it but there are too many kids and dogs running around our complex.

Matt was actually the one to get it in the bucket! (I was so proud!) He used a hot dog roasting rod we have for camping, to pick it up. So we have a snake in a bucket on our front porch... its saturday night, we have nothing else to do... LETS PLAY A PRANK ON SOMEONE! Lucky for all our friends, Todd and Kristin were out of town, Jader wasnt home, we put it on Monica and Derek's porch, rang the doorbell and ran, but they were at the movies so it didn't work either. (Guess everyone has a life on sat nights but us...)And everyone else lives too far away for a prank.

So I just put the snake into a pillow case and we took it up to South Mountain to live.

Matts pretty sure it was someones pet that got out... oh well i guess :S

Dog Beach!

Over the weekend we took the dogs to Dog Beach in San Diego. I guess it was sorta like taking the kids to Disneyland. They were non stop for 2 days. There were so many dogs there, which made it tons of fun. The water was still too cold to get in and swim with our crazy dogs but we got our feet wet :) Blue on the other hand was following the surfers WAY out into the waves. If Matt didn't run out there and call him back who knows what would have happened... We now call Blue "Hasselhoff".

It was a nice, relaxing weekend away. And it was fun spending all of it with the dogs instead of asking someone to watch them for us. I cant wait to go again!
