Funny story, my brides learn about my love for chocolate covered gummy bears and I had one bride send me a gift in the mail.  I opened tattered box that had stickers plastered all over it saying the post office was not responsible for the box opening and getting all damaged.  Inside of this messed up boxI found two CD’s of classical music.  Totally confused about why she would send me this music I e-mailed, like anyone would do, and thanked her for her confusing gift.  For whatever reason I thought she wanted me to pass the Cd’s on to her DJ (she was a destination bride planning her wedding from hours away).  Quickly I received a response from my baffled bride wondering where the chocolate covered gummy bears were!  D’oh!  She sent the most delicious treat in the world and the dumb ol’ Post Office switched my candy out for some lame CD’s.  I laughed so hard (yet still felt the sting of sadness) and I chuckle to myself every time I think of that moment and those e-mails back and forth with my bride.

It’s just something quirky that you may not have known about me.  I LOVE CHOCOLATE COVERED GUMMY BEARS!!!

I absolutely love Instagram. In fact, I love it more than Facebook. Instagram is the thing I check in the morning. Seeing the moments my friends share bring me joy. Countless time I laugh when I see a certain image paired with its caption. And, on the other hand, there have been some tender, knot in my throat, tear in my eye moments that have been shared over Instagram. It’s an absolutely wonderful little app to me.

Come to think of it, through Instagram I asked my dear friends (who live in far off lands) to be my bridesmaids. It’s simply wonderful. Oh, and those girls accepted… more on the wedding stuff soon… I promise!

Instagram is fun, it’s great, it’s everything I hoped it would be.  If you want to see life through my eyes feel free to follow me on Instagram, JenEileen. Let me know you’re there; let’s connect!

Anyhow, one of my favorite things about my phone is the camera. I’ve never been one to lug around my giant camera to take pictures while out hiking but now I can have my nifty little thing in my back pocket to document this and that.

One of my favorite cameras I use (cause you know, you can download different camera apps and not be limited to the one that automatically comes on your phone) is Hipstamatic. I paid $2 bucks for it and I’m lovin’ it. I can change lenses, film, and flashes to get the look I desire. (In all actuality, I just shake the phone which causes everything to switch to a random lens, film, and flash… it’s pretty sweet.) I think it’s quite fun and I just had to share about it.

So that’s that. Here’s the website so you can learn more about them and I attached a few images from my Labor Day Weekend in the mountains at Hume Lake.

Enjoy!

If you use Hipstamatic, I would love to see some images you’ve created!  Or, if anyone knows of a gem of an iPhone camera do share.
