Budding artist? :)

So actually got off pinterest long enough to do a crafty project. :) so excited how this turned out. We've needed something to spice up our wall for a long time.

This was so easy and inexpensive. I just got 3 foam boards from hobby lobby for $1.60 each and some acrylic paints. I used a ruler to mark dots with a pencil 2 inches apart on the boards. I mixed the paints into the shades I wanted and used a potato stamp (half a potato cut so there's a raised circle on it) to make the dots. For now we just hung them up on the wall as is, but we're going to go to home depot and get some plexiglass cut to the right size and use some studio clips to make it classier. Turned out pretty cool if I do say so myself. :)

4th of July

4th of July is one of my favorite holidays! And making awesome jello just made it that much better. BBQ with friends, jello, and fireworks seems to be all I need in life. :)

Catch Up

Once again, it's been a long time since I've updated this...

We've been having adventurers!
Skiing, moving pianos, shooting, hiking...
What else do you need? :)

October 2011

Fall is so fun! We did lots of fun stuff, but I only got a few pictures. These are of the pumpkin walk in North Logan - any group of people can submit a scene (based on a theme) created mainly from pumpkins!

The Gorilla was part of the zoo scene that our ward did and WE painted it! :) We didn't help with the minions or angry birds, but just thought they were so cool I had to post them. :)

We went hunting the last two weeks in a row on the general deer hunt near Strawberry Reservoir. We pretty much froze, and didn't have any luck, but it was still fun! Better luck next year, I guess!

Tweet tweet!

So these birds made a nest on a ledge that's right outside of our apartment. There are cute little chicks in it. :) It's funny because every time we come in or go out the mama and papa fly away and if you stand in the doorway, you can watch them try to come back again and again, but when they see you still there they fly right away again.

Cute little birdies!

Happy Birthday, Benji!

Wow! Benji is 27! I wrote a song:

It's raining, it's sprinkling

Benji is wrinkling!!! hahahaha

nah, he's not that old. ;)

I made him a really super cool cake that looks like a golf course. I'm probably way too proud of it...

In other news... there is no real other news, I guess life right now is kinda repetitive. Sleep, work/school, sleep, work/school repeat.

....

Oh, I just remembered something else! Benji got chosen for a teaching assistantship in the Fall. Yay! That means they are going to pay his tuition and he gets to teach 5 "skills" classes (like tennis, basketball, and some other sports) and have lots of fun! woot.

That's all for this post. Until next time!

Yay!

Thanks to Heather and Jeff, and their buying a new Christmas Tree, we now have one that is bigger than 2 ft tall! Thanks, Heather and Jeff!

Happy Holidays to everyone! I love this time of year (excpet for the icy roads... everyone drive safe!) :)
