PaintBall Game

This past weekend was the long awaited Paint Ball game at our friends, the Neisens. The game started at 9, and went 'til about 2:35...Talk about a long game! Plus playing in weather ranging from 80-85 degrees! But I think the guys still had a blast. :) I didn't get as many action photos as I would have liked to, but I hope you enjoy the ones that I did get. The first few are of the game, and then the last ones are of the girls up at the house.

The following picture is one of a Nikon 55-200mm VR that I just got for my early birthday present from my wonderful parents. Of course, I had to pay half, but hey! At least I got it!! Sometime soon I'll post some of the "close-ups" that I got with my new lens.


The Lens


An Art-sy shot...


Its game.


Jeremy testing his gun out, you know you have to get it just perfect!


I'm not sure what kind of pose he's doing, but it works! :)


TIPPMAN-Obviously.


Lined up for picking teams, Peter looks kind of impatient. ;)


The game is on!


Keeping low...


"Pshhh, it happens!"


The guys were here.


You know Caleb, you really should have wore long sleeves. ;)


Every time I see this one, I think of the movie "Shooter". I'm not sure why... :)


Peter taking some shots.


You served well Dad...:)


So when I come up from the battlefield, I see my dear friends...tanning. :)


Atsuho and Jesi...Aren't they cute?


All my dear wonderful friends...


*sweet friends*


"Y'all come back now...ya' hear!"

oh! that is an amazing lens! you're definitely blessed! I did the same thing with my laptop: paid for half of it as a graduation gift.

Great shots. Looks like everyone had a great time.
:)
hugs!

Fun pictures! The guys all look so serious in all their gear. :-)

Do you have your own camera, and you got the lens to go with it? Very fun! Someday I would love to get a macro lens. My mom & I each have our own camera and we have one large zoom lens that we both use (in addition to the regular ones that come on the camera :-).

Oh, what fun! Love all the pictures! When our guys had a paintball war they did a "battle field reenactment" and the girls had to judge who "died the best". It was pretty funny! Nice new lens! Can't wait to see what you do with it!

Amanda, Hey, it works! :) God has blessed me tremendously with amazing friends, I am so thankful to Him for that wonderful gift. :)

Kathryn, I know! I don't see why they can't smile! Oh fun! So your into photography? That's wonderful! :) I *love* taking pictures, and am hoping to further my knowledge in it. :)

Tara, Thanks! Aww, that sounds like fun. We should have done something like that...I'm sure if would have been *hilarious*! :)

Thanks Jesi! Yes, that would be Justin! I think its a pretty cool picture. Yeah I know, but the masks make it hard too. :) I think they should just take off their masks for the game...that would hurt. ;) Love you!
