So, I have this friend, his name is Dave.  I have known him for a long while now and he has a blog. Years ago, when we all lived at Raintree, I didn't know that he was such a hilarious writer, but alas, he is.  I have decided to try and win him more readership, I really think he could be the next big thing in blogging... really.  Here is his blog, check it out, leave a comment, put it on your RSS feed,  all that good stuff!

us: then & now

one of the things i love very most about mikey is that i fit perfectly snuggled in his arms.

 it has always been this way, and i am happy.

a past life

I have been going thru our house and in the process I have come across a few boxes of my stuff.  Old stuff!  I am kinda amazed that so much of my life can fit into a few little boxes, it's crazy!  So, this post is a chunk of my life, in hopes that it will not be forgotten!  Are you ready?

once I lived by these...
and worked on getting these...

and then there was this house, that was my room in the top left corner...
and the drive to school looked like this, it was 45 minutes...
and you needed to pass guards to get into that school...
and i knew these guys that did things like this to our house....

and they also did this, which was way grosser than it looks here...
i hung out with these three a lot and they always let me take pictures of them, so it was cool...
and even a long time ago I had a thing for trees...


i used to chew with these...

i stayed here for a little while...

and i wore this, all the time...

and i had to do this sometimes...

then i went here...

and here...
and i loved him....

he introduced me to this...

and took me here....

i moved with him here...
and we did fun stuff like this...

then we had babies, that is a much bigger box!  I'll save that for another day.

gag

For those of you who know my sweet little Jackson you might know that he has a very strong gag reflex. It's been is kinda hilarious to see what exactly will make him gag next. The other night was the best, he was gaging on his own spit because we called it saliva and he didn't know what that was. He was in the middle of melting down but I thought it was so funny! I finally asked him if he knew what I was talking about and what saliva is and he said "it's slime!"  *gag*

Here is a photo of a happier day.

playing with mod

mod podge that is.  This is a project that I made my mom for her birthday.  So, Mom, if you are reading this, SURPRISE!  HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! Mod Podge is fun!  I am excited to learn more about what I can do with it!  This looks way cooler in real life, this is a photo of it.  It is 11x14 and will be in a frame when I give it to her.

stopped to paint a picture

So, last Wednesday started out like any other day that Link and I sit down to paint rocks.  Then I was inspired and I painted a tree.  Now, no laughing, I have never really painted anything for real before and if you laugh it might be the end of my painting career, do you really want to be held responsible for that?  I hope not, because I really liked painting, even if I am not that good.   I painted the first one for Link and then Jack wanted one so I did the other for him.  They are both on 16x20 canvas.
