Photos I am proud of
I take a lot of photos and am proud of every one I take. 
Here a few:

My baby, Tungsten. She is a whopping Great Dane/Bull Mastiff cross and about 6years old.

Muffins I made John. 

Mr Andrew Pants 

Declan

The boys eating muffins for breakfast.

I don't have a lot of pics of John as he doesn't like to have his photo taken and there aren't alot of me either as I'm the one behind the lens lol.

Fitness guru or Couch potato?

I'm not one or the other, I'm both! I can go days without going to the gym and I can go days of nothing but the gym. I'm not going to lie and say I LOVE THE GYM, because I don't.....I also can't sit around home and do nothing either. I have SADD. Its Seasonal Depression and when Im feeling a bit blue, I get up of my butt and go to the gym. I'm lazy though, if I don't go to a gym class then I only do about 10mins at a time.

3 things I am proud about my personality?

Um......Can I answer this some other time?
