Appleberry Orchard

I went to Appleberry Farm in Marshalltown, Iowa yesterday and took a bunch of photos on my phone. I edited them in snapseed on the road trip back and got some pretty good shots.

Hickory Hills Organic Farm

Last weekend I toured Hickory Hills Organic Farm with my Des Moines Paleo group. We saw all the animals and then got to buy straight from the source. The chickens, hogs and cows are treated very humanely. They are actually ranked between category 4 and 5 on the USDA's humane scale You can talk to Ben at the Des Moines Farmer's Market.  The roasts are perfect and the brats are the best I have ever had.

Valentine's Day

IMG_20130214_172124.jpg

This is my Valentine's Day "card" for my wife. I made this from one of our wedding photos that I had on my phone. My wife loves Edgar Allen Poe, so I customized one of his poems at the end there with her name. I added the text using the Phonto app on my Galaxy Note II and then edited it in PicSayPro and Instagram.

But our love was stronger by far than the love
Of those who were older than we
Of many far wiser than we
And neither the angels in heaven above,
Nor the demons down under the sea,
Can ever dissever my soul from the soul
Of the beautiful Alyssa B.

Save the Date!

I designed the save the dates for my wedding. I just gave my camera to Alyssa's mom with the right settings at a local park. Our colors are black, red and white so this was pretty easy. We bought 100 4x6s at Walgreens for 15 cents.
