Out with the OLD and In with the NEW 353-364/365

Holy cow...I can't believe tomorrow is New Year's Eve! Another year, come and gone again--it's weird how, at the end of the year, it seems to have gone by so quickly.  So much went on this year, it's hard to keep track of/remember everything! I think that, for today, I'm just going to post some photos from the past week and a half and tomorrow I'll try to do something to put the year in review. (Note that I said try ;) but really, I will at least post something tomorrow, it is the final day after all!)

Days 353 - 364 (12/20 - 12/30)

Coming To An End 299-352/365

I'm not even going to attempt to make excuses for my sad, sad blogging skills. You know that I suck, and I'm really only getting worse. I provided false hope of being better at this, getting back to being a daily rather than an, oh, monthly...bimonthly even, blog. Yeah, sorry.

Here's an update on the end of October, all of November, and the first 2 1/2 weeks of December. (Wow, that really is sad.)

October:

Arrgghh, matey! Happy Halloween :)

November:

 Autumn

 

Rainboots
 

Thanksgiving Scrabble

December (so far):

Out for my 23rd birthday :) (on the 16th)

 Zoolights! So cool. 

Mean-muggin' fish 

More to come :)

Monthly Camille...? 263-298/365

Maybe I should change the name of the blog to Monthly Camille because it has failed to be a daily thing for quite some time now.  Since I missed a whopping 35 days this time, I think I'll just post a few photos for each week so that Blogger doesn't overload and implode.
Hey, it could happen.

Days 263 - 270 (9/20-9/27)

School starts...(9/20)

It's Dress Like a Pirate Day in 2nd grade! (9/27)

Days 285-291 (10/12-10/18)

Homemade broccoli and cheese hot pockets. Oh. Bomb.

Candy corn. Oh, sweet, sick goodness.

Days 292-298 (10/19-10/25) 

At the pumpkin patch with my Andy :) 

(it was very cold!)

Pumpkins!

(that were stolen straight off my porch today! hoodlums.) 

Thank goodness for rain boots!

Goal: Post tomorrow and/or Thursday because Thursday is day 300!!! Whooaa! The big 3-0-0! (Too bad I'm kind of a cheater and don't actually have a photo for every single day :/ ah well. Maybe next year...?)

Back to Reality 241-262/365

Ohhh heyyyy blog, nice to see you again...getting a little dusty, are we?  Sorry about that, folks...I hate to say it but I'm still trying to be a better blogger, and still failing.
I do have some good excuses this time though! I moved back to school from my parents' house and was without internet for nearly 3 weeks. I've also jumped head first into the world of teaching 2nd grade--being at school from 8-4 every day is rough after such a lazy summer! I now go to bed around 10, and continue to drag myself out of bed around 6:45 every morning. I don't know if I'll ever get used to this--have I mentioned I'm so not a morning person? It takes a lot of caffeine to get this girl goin'!
But enough of my whining...here's some photos! And I apologize again, but I've been slacking on taking a photo a day, so I'll just fill in my holes with photos from a few key days.
