Tales of What Once Was 4


 My dad and I went to Birmingham AL to take photos of the tornado damage. 

 The damage is not a cruel as most,
but compared to your broken faucet,
you have much to be thankful for.


 My dad and I went to Birmingham AL to take photos of the tornado damage. I am still trying to grasp the extent of all of the damage that was done. 

For years,
and years.
People moved in, 
and moved out.
Then new people would move in,
and move out.
Now it is ever forsaken.

Tales of What Once Was 3


 My dad and I went to Birmingham AL to take photos of the tornado damage.

See those trees,
they grew,
and grew, 
and grew.
Until they were split in half,
Like the of hearts,
That lost a love one that night.

Tales of What Once Was 2


 My dad and I went to Birmingham AL to take photos of the tornado damage. The damage was... incredible.

A while ago,
Someone would sleep on that mattress,
night after night. 
What do they sleep on now?

Tales of What Once Was 1


 My dad and I went to Birmingham AL to take photos of the tornado damage. There are not enough words to describe the destruction of all of the people's homes.


People were able to have electricity so that they could have lights in the bathroom, 
so that the fridge for the beverages would stay cold, 
so that the store workers would stay cool in summer heat.
There used to be a gas station here,
but it was blown away, 
torn down.
People survived by hiding in the cooler.
Now this is all that's left.

Slam Dunk!

I went to my friend Rodger's basketball game and took some pictures!
I got some super lucky shots!
This wasn't photoshopped, it was just lucky! :)

I laugh every time that I see this next picture.
Take a better look at this picture.
Gerome (#2) is doing some kinda of monkey jump,
Rodger (#20) is doing that odd dance,
And the kid with the ball looks like he's gonna pee on himself!
Rodger dunking again!
He's beast at basketball!

Spitballs...

While I was in Texas with my family for Christmas we went to lunch in the Woodlands with the Vogels.
This is my cousin Angela, who is just 2 weeks younger than my little sister Cameron!
Jonathan... trying to use a candy cane as a spitball.....
.... it didn't work.
Haha!!
This is my favorite!
Jonathan is preparing to throw a spitball at Robert,
who just finished throwing a snowball at me,
WHILE Angela is shoving some pretzel in Robert's face.
...............
I love my family :)
