Moving, Brett, and Projects

Wow, a lot has happened since I last posted. And, surprisingly, it hasn't been that long!

First, Paul and I moved. We're now renting a very nice townhome in Hudson, WI. It's way bigger than our apartment was and we have a garage and washer & dryer! I have some pictures, but they aren't that great & I haven't uploaded them yet.



Second, Brett Favre retired. Okay, so it's not really something that happened to me, but everyone's been talking about it. Except at my school, because I work in MN. No one cares there. Next season's going to be tough and a little sad without Favre, but it'll also be exciting to see how it goes.







And last... I finally finished uploading my grandparents' pictures to Flickr. Right now, they're only available to friends & family, so to see them you'll have to add us (ebbenfamilyphotos). Here's another quick preview.

Hudson Hot Air Affair

Every year, in February, Hudson (WI) holds the Hot Air Affair. There are tons of events that happen - a parade, hot air balloon launches, etc. The one that I always try to make it to is the "Moonglow." It takes place at night and consists of a bunch of balloons being blown up and then lit at the same time. Unfortunately, every time I've gone, it's been too windy to actually blow up the balloons and I've just gotten to see fire.
Finally, this year, the weather cooperated for the Moonglow! It was so much fun. I took some pictures and put them up on my site.


I found this to be a really hard event to take pictures at, both because of the conditions and because I hadn't really seen it before. Keep your eye open for next year's Hudson Hot Air Affair - it's a lot of fun!

Completed photo project!

My grandmother passed away on December 26, 2007. My cousin (Marina) had a wonderful idea - to scan most of my grandma's pictures. I just finished scanning...almost 715 pictures! It was really fun and we're excited to get them online. Right now you can see a few at my website and in the next week or two we should have them up on flickr as well.

Happy Birthday Nick!

My brother Nick turned 15 on January 19. Wow, he's old! Anyway, to celebrate, we went to Monster Jam in Minneapolis, MN. Unfortunately, Nick didn't make it home because of his behavior, but I took plenty of pictures for him. You can see more at my photo site. :c)

A new blog!

So... I've never really had a blog before. But I'm sitting at home, with my dog on my lap, bored with nothing to do. Plus it's a good way to promote my photography, right? (by the way, here's my site: K. Krasin Photography.)

Now that we got that shameless self-promotion out of the way, look at my adorable dog, Oliver!
