Month: August 2012

Are you sitting at work, looking for a way to get closer to the end of the day without actually having to work?  Then I have got the cure for you!  And it’s not more cowbell, it’s this post – this very blog post right here that you are looking at right here that will help you get closer to the end of the day!

You can call it ‘market research’ or ‘getting inspiration’ – as long as your boss doesn’t see that it’s just Facebook you will be in the clear!  I promise!  It will totally work!  And, as if getting you out of work wasn’t awesome enough, the way that you are going to be doing it is by gazing at the ever so lovely quick teaser image of the one & only Kayla!

Life is good, my friends…life is good.  So, let’s take a moment and reflect upon all of the good things that we have, let’s be thankful for all the good things that we will hopefully receive.  Let’s take a moment and send MuchLove to Kayla for helping us get through the workday.  And, let’s take a moment to – Enjoy!

As I write this, it is Friday.  Always the best day of the week.  And what better way to end the week than with a quick teaser samplesnap from the ever-lovely Brittany!

So, in addition to it being the most wonderful day of the week, the day when the weekend is just staring right at you with open arms and possibilites abounding of fun that might be had – we can also take a moment and marvel at the wonder that is Brittany!  So, I invite you to do so.  Now.  Do it.  OK then!  But before you do so, we need to take a moment and sent MuchLove to Brittany for letting us be a part of her senior year awesome experience, and we also need to tell the brain behind the eyes reading this to – Enjoy!

Through the years, I think it would be safe to say that we’ve established the fact that I’m not really one that has ever been ‘athletically inclined’ or ‘one that you would want to be in a pick-up game of basketball with.’  That’s OK.  I’ll admit it.  Everyone has their own talents, their own strengths.  Mine just happen to be napping and avoiding work (on a side note, don’t aspire to be like me…if you do, our future is doomed.)

But then we have Emma!  And Emma, in addition to being smart, lovely & talented – is also an athlete!  Which means that our future is not doomed by people like me that don’t have what has been referred to as ‘hand/eye coordination.’  So, we thank Emma for being just the way she is – because she is wonderful!  And with that, it’s time to give Emma MuchLove for letting us take the pictosnaps, and to all of my good peeps out there in Blogland – Enjoy!

If I could take all of the good things in the world, and put them into a picture, the picture would probably look like the picture that is below these words.  And that picture is of Logan.  And Logan is good.  In fact, Logan is just not good, she is wondrous.  Like the brightest star in the sky whose light shines upon your face and warms your heart; filled with goodness and grace!

Now with that being said, her sisters might tell you a different story (we’ve had the incredibly great pleasure of taking all of their senior pictosnaps.)  I’m just basing it upon the awesomeness that is contained in the picture below these rambling words.  But, with that being said as well, I’m pretty sure that Logan was an absolute treat to work with (as her sisters were), and we couldn’t be any happier that she made the trek back to Minot so that we could be a part of her senior year!

So, now that I’ve laid down all of those words, it’s time that we put the words away, give MuchLove to Logan (and her lovely family for supporting the o&j throughout the years!) and it’s time to tell you, the good People of Blog, to – Enjoy!

See what I did in the title there.  I took a slogan for a beer company and changed it around by putting ‘Molly’ in there where ‘Miller’ should have been.  I know, I’m like prolly the most creative person that you’ve ever met.  So just relax about it and try not to freak out that I’m so awesome.

You know what else is awesome?  Or rather, who else is awesome?  Well, I’m glad you asked!  Because the superawesome Molly is awesome (as was evidenced by the fact that I prefaced her name with ‘superawesome’ – again, I’m here to help) – and that’s a whole lot of awesome.  That’s like, three awesome’s in a row.  But enough!  We need to get to the quick teaser, and we need to give MuchLove to Molly for being so…awesome, and we need to tell you to – Enjoy!

Welp, here we go again!  All up in here in this area looking for some words to describe the goodness that is the senior quick teaser of the oh-so-awesome Paige – and I think I have come to the conclusion that the only words that I need to type up on this sheet of digital paper to express the goodness that was her seniorpictoriffic shoot have already been typed, because I just typed them.  BOOM.  See how I did that?  Turned that thing around on its head.  Right there.  That’s how it’s done.

But to get to the point, Paige was simply awesome to work with, if you want to call having an awesome time ‘work.’  Because we did have an awesome time and it was all because of the wonderful Paige!  So, time for MuchLove to Paige for being so awesome, and to all our good peeps out there in Land of Blog – Enjoy!

Hope.  Such a beautiful name.  Do you know what the literal definition of Hope is?  Well, let me tell you:

To cherish a desire with anticipation…

Isn’t that lovely?  Isn’t that just something that all of us need on a daily basis – and isn’t it something that humanity needs in order to survive this crazy world that we live in?  But I’m getting all philosophical on you here.  And since I’ve been typing drivel for the past seven years or whatever it is now, there is no need to become the intellectual.  It’s just that hope is one of my favorite words, and such a beautiful name for someone to have – especially this Hope!

Hope bounded into our studio, and our hearts were filled with joy as we took her seniorpictosnaps!  The time flew by, and we would like to give MuchLove to Hope for living up to her lovely name, and to all of my people out there in this world of blog that sometimes just need a little bit of hope – Enjoy!

I ran into an old friend named Tanner the other night at Loaf-n-Jug.  What does that have to do with this?  Absolutely nothing!  But I’m obligated by International Treaties to put some words up here and my brain is pretty much a bag of mush these days, all filled up with thoughts of donuts…mmmm…donuts.   Again, I have become distracted.  Back to the matter at hand, and that is the one & only Tanner! And, by that I mean the one & only Tanner that is in this quick teaser, not the one at the gas station that was buying milk & cereal at 2AM.

Tanner brought the rock.  He brought the roll.  He combined them into something that I will call, ‘the rock & roll.’  And he did it with aplomb (look it up, it’s a good thing.)  BUT ENOUGH OF THESE WORDS!  Let us now give MuchLove to Tanner for being greatlyawesome, and to our wonderful peeps out there in Blogville, be sure to – Enjoy!

And then there was Jake.  That sounds like a verse of The Bible that was left out.  But I’m pretty sure that it’s not, although I must admit that my knowledge of The Dead Sea Scrolls is lacking.  But then there was Jake.  Actually, let’s put an exclamation point at the end of that statement and jazz it up a bit.

And then there was Jake!

See?!  All the difference in the world is made through the power of punctuation, which also happens to be the title of my new book coming out this November (just in time for all of your holiday shopping needs!)  But enough of this self-promotion.

It’s time to give MuchLove to Jake for stopping by the o&j and sharing some of his sweet & precious time with us, and it’s time for me to tell you, the good readers of the o&j webernet to – Enjoy!
