About Us

Andy and I met on a blind date in Dec. 2005. One of my 7th grade students was his neice, and she set us up. Go figure. We saw each other every day after that! We were engaged by June and married in September of 2006. In January, 2008, we welcomed little Ethan into our home, and in August, 2010, little Addison arrived.

Andy is a diesel mechanic at Kennecott. I taught middle school science for ten years, and am now an evidence-based learning specialist for a school district.

Fun with Photoshop

From this . . . To this . . .

Andy gave me some fantastic computer programs for my birthday a while ago, and I've been a regular user of them, but I learned something new today! For those of you who are experts, don't laugh, I know this is probably simple stuff, but I'm not a techie by any stretch of the imagination, so I was quite proud of myself that I was able to accomplish this!

I opened up the picture, and copied it for a new layer. Then I used the laso tool to outline the strawberry. Then I cut it, and pasted it onto yet another layer. Then I made the original layer black and white, deleted the second layer, and this is what it came out as! It looks pretty cute I think!
