In the process

Leu gardens

Today I braved the heat and went to Leu Gardens with

Mom. It actually wasn't too bad 'till about

10:30 then it started to get muggy hot. But it

was fine before that.

Hi Mom

This picture looks like I photoshopped

a glowing light into it but I didn't touch it, pretty.

Mom said she'd never seen a butterfly

sit and let someone take a picture of it

This guy was a perfect model

camo plant

I liked the star flower

bamboo

Sometimes I get a picture I like

when my lens fogs up, happy little accident

nap time

Tuesday

Yesterday was a fun day.

I met Tricia at Starbucks for coffee and free pastry.

Yummy blueberry scones. I like just about anything with blueberries.

We went back to her house for sketching.

I'm trying to get back into practice with my drawing.
What helps with that is having someone who likes to draw

also draw you while you draw them. I did this last week with

Tracy but forgot to take pictures. This is the sketch Tricia did of me.

I like it and think its funny she focused on my foot first and drew

from there. That would be very hard for me to do.

After Tricia's, I met mom and we went bowling. I did better

than usual. Mom always beats me though, she's good.
It was a fun day! And Trish (my sis) met us at the mall, yay!

wednesday

I finally finished my door piece

the really neat button bouquet Tricia gave me

for my birthday (I always wanted one)

Day at Disney..it really is free on your birthday

but only in 2009
me and MomI'm a castle freak, love castles Minnie's house
I (we) rode Thunder Mountain

Jesse acting 'cause she said I need to ride a "real" roller coaster
I (we) rode splash mountain

going around the corner in the above picture,

another log came down this right when we went

by and completely soaked us.

I looked like I'd gotten in the shower with my clothes on.

I was wearing jean capris so I was wet the rest of the evening = not fun

the anticipation of it all....

remember I love castles and this one comes in purply pink

... and blue
fireworks from the parking lot cause I didn't want to be in the

crowd that flows out after

the only problem was the monorail track blocking part of my pictures
fun day!

sunday

clouds outside - everyday it rains - something I like tiny cupcakes, unfortunately hard to eat just one

heard of "pimp my ride", well this is "pimp my dog"

a very different peice of art I'm working on

I forgot to take pictures

We had a family cookout yesterday kind of a late 4th

celebration. I forgot to take pictures. This past week

working on the kitchen and trying to get everything

done I just kind of ran out of steam by Saturday.

It was a nice time but missed Corey, Christopher, and

Trish. The only thing I have a picture of

(because Chuck took it) is the new grill

he bought (you get what you pay for)

caught on fire. Oh well.

nooooooo

Jesse started another project I didn't want to get

involved in right now. Chuck wants to have

a family get together here tomorrow and I need to

get ready for that. Soooo.. I guess she's on her

own but where will the dresser go while everyone's here?When Jesse's home (she's living here now)

Millie won't let her out of her sight. She really

loves her.

this is a working summer

what the kitchen looked like before (bad picture) but just to see the difference, Beadboard is

an all day project but I'm liking it.
I know I was supposed to paint first but Chuck is off right now and
I couldn't do this part without him. Today we are taking off. It's his

last vacation day so we are doing something vacationey - like get out of town.

Don't know where or what but rest and relaxation are required this day!!!!
