Those Pictures I Promised

So I am finally showing the many adventures I had in Logan. 

It was a lot of fun {except the part where Lauren kept kicking in her sleep}

When we got there we got our car unloaded and loaded up in Grandma Dandy's car.

We took a little drive to the Pepperidge Farm factory in Richmond.

Went to the Fatboy Factory and went to Casper's for some ice cream!

 Next day we went to some antique shops and got some treats.
No trip to Logan is complete without Aggie Ice Cream

No ice cream even compares to Aggie Ice Cream, I wish I had a constant supply of it.
But then again I would be fat and I wouldn't want that so....I'll take it when I'm visiting!

And yes my face is really red-in pursuit of clear skin I dried
my skin out even more to the point it was fried {used a moisturizer that I shouldn't have}.

Dear Boys part zortzi

{This going to be short like I said before}


Dear Boys on Campus,
I'm really missing you, even if
you gave me a headache you
did make life more fun.
love,
Girl visiting home

Dear boy,
I thought you looked pretty
darn handsome, then you turned
and I saw an earring in your ear
, then I thought you weren't so
handsome after all.

Carl's Junior

Dear Boy,
I wish I could make
you super full with all
the treats and yummy
food that I make.

Love,
Girl Waiting

Leavin'

I'm leaving for Logan and I'm leaving the lappy behind. 

I feel like a need a break from the technology.

Sorry to deprive you of whimsical wednesday again. 

I actually had one planned {Audrey Hepburn-Next Week I promise to do it}.

Have a fun week and I'll have fun away from Facebook and the blogging. 

I'll take pictures of my adventures and have them up Friday Night if 

I'm not to tired dancing after with Austrians and Russians(thats another story for another day)

Hope you're enjoying your summer and I get to enjoy my 1 week of freedom before 

I become a slave to my job{I love it and its good money for school}

Have a happy rest of the week and I'll be back soon!

Tuesday's {Thoughts}

One day out in the garden and I'm going through allergies again! What is this!

I can only imagine what Grain Harvest will be like!

Pure joy is being weird with your brother while you are jumping on the trampoline.

I think I'll wear mustaches with that kid today! He deserves a post too!

You know its going to be a good day when you listen to Iration or

just plain reggae in general.

My parents are so cute at their age! :) My dad has been picking

Day Lilies out of our flower garden for my mom and 

she gets so excited about it. That is true love right their folks!

Once you unleash  your inner artist even the simplest thing becomes 

the most interesting you've seen. 

I could just stay in a raspberry patch all day just picking raspberries and eating them.

Potter Puppet Pal Videos are more hilarious with a little brother.

I think its time for me to paint and draw some more. And it is 

time to share more of my artwork.

Meet Mia

In honor of the 2 new Girls from Taiwan staying with us in the next couple of week

I thought I would introduce you to Mia!

Mia stayed with us last year and I  love her so much!

I had lots of fun with Mia and granted that could be because it was during July and not August.

(Grain Harvest is in August and I sometimes will stay pretty late, limiting time with the girls)

Awww I miss her everyday!

She is such sweet girl!

She loves Sponge Bob and watching movies.

She loves going fast in Rosemary(the purple van!

We would take her back in a heart beat!

I love you Mia and you are always in my prayers and thoughts!

Favorite Quotes from the weekend

{The Doctor had told me I may have a type of acne on the side of my nose that old people get}

"I thought the things on the side of your nose were senile Acne."

"No, but that still happens to old people except the go crazy." 

Watching the preview for Captain America, and when the guy comes out of the machine all full of muscle and has grown a foot, my sisters at the exact same time, "Oh my gosh..."-drool was running down their faces. :)

Carter turns to me during HP7:2 after Voldemort hugs Malfoy, "That was one weird hug!"

"She'll be that roommate or co-worker who eats other peoples food, even if their name is written on it."

"Dear, thanks for being the best, most beautiful, awesome wife ever"

I turn to  my Dad and say"There is no charge for attractiveness or awesomeness!"

We burst up laughing.

"I think the word Pothead should be used more"

Final Project

So I'm just barely finishing up my final class which is Design and Color. 

I had a lot more fun with this class than my Drawing 110 class which was death.

(But hey I passed it and won't have to take it again!)

The color part just made it better.

Graphite and Charcoal can get pretty boring and messy.
I would much rather get paint messy for sure!

I still had a love/hate relationship with it because it was an online class.

I hate online classes and I really hate them if they are an art class. 

If its an art class I like to be in the same room as my teacher.

So I thought I would share my final project with you.

It took up to 16 hours of all picking it out. Making a value composition of it.

And Final painting it. 

I hope you like! Cause I sure do!

I promise to get up a better scan of it!
