So my dad has a website advertising his contracting business with links on the bottom to his home site. I went to look at it today and he has updated his pics to a nice easy to view gallery format, going back 15 years or so. So I find the first picture below under "Christmas 2007"... It made me crazy, so I had to take a pic of myself today and send to him. Bad lighting, cheap camera, but still better in my mind than the Christmas pic!

I just figured I would share them with you guys too... I don't know yet if I'm going to ask him to take the others down, or if I'm just going to keep at him until he puts better ones up along with them.

Awesome!!! You look fabulous, my dear!

You look great! You should be proud of yourself!

Shannon, you look great!

And.......I love your avatar!

I had been thinking about shyly starting a thread in General Topics asking if anyone else was eager for the new Star Trek movie that will come out next year....

But I chickened out.





(Sigh. Yes. I'm a geek. I admit it.)

You look great. The current photo is great, but if it were me, I'd have him keep the Christmas one too, it's really adorable. The slightly distracted expression on your face is just a wonderful, fun, candid family photo.

Thanks for the comments guys! I will probably have him leave them up - they are fun pics on the whole and it is good to look back and see a snapshot of that moment. Thanks for the 'adorable' kaplods!

And I am so excited about the new movie Apple Cheeks... I'm a total geek myself. I have an entire 5' bookshelf with nothing but Trek, numerous other shelves with other similarly themed items, and dvds aplently (buffy, trek, babylon 5, etc.) I just might start a thread on GC myself about it... I've already announced my geekness to the world with my avatar!

You look amazing!

Hi Shannon!

You look AMAZING! You've come a long way in just 8 months! Chat with you later!

BTW, I wouldn't worry about it being on your dad's site.

You look AAAMAZINGG!! Congrats!!!

You look wonderful!!

And I'm a ST geek as well, although I'm more of a Next Gen fan. My son, on the other hand, is a classic Trek geek, and can't waitttttt for the new film!

I can definitely see a change! You're glowing in your current picture!! Well done!
