Oh Nuts

--- 1 --- Tomorrow is the last day of the August Photo a Day that I have been doing. Though I will miss doing this I will try to post pictures on here as often as I can. Not to mention occasional posts about what going on in my life :) --- 2 --- Last week my brother started reading The Fairy Tale Novels by Regina Doman. He has enjoyed reading them.  --- 3 --- I was going to put the instructions for the backpack that I made in this weeks 7 Quick Takes but they are a bit to long for this sort of thing so I put the instructions in their own post, which will be posted next week. :) In the meantime here is a picture that I took of the backpack that I made :) --- 4 --- Last week when my family and I were at Wal-Mart getting some things my brother and I were by the sunglasses because we both needed a pair. This is what the pair I got looks like. There was another pair like that and my brother was going to get them but I talk him out of getting those ones and gettin

--- 1 --- I know that last week I said that this weeks 7 quick takes would just be the pattern that I used to make the backpack. Well I decided to not do that because it sounded kind of boring to me.  --- 2 --- This past Saturday, Yavi had a small dance performance at our church. Though my family and I had seen the dance they were performing already we still went. Yavi wanted me to video the dance on my camera, since we had't gotten the entire dance on video the first time they did it, but I forgot to grab my camera before we left and didn't remember until we got to the church. But someone else was videoing it instead. Afterwards we all went out for ice cream at Culver's. The dance that they did was based on the story of The Prodigal Son  (Luke 15: 11-32), though they changed it to The Prodigal Daughter  since all of the dancers doing it were girls. --- 3 --- A friend of ours who hadn't been able to see the dance before came over to my house and we spent

--- 1 --- A week ago today I got a car!!!!! I named it TARDIS since that is the same color blue or at least very close to that! --- 2 --- Though I haven't taken a picture of it yet I finished knitting the backpack I was working on for the past few weeks! Other than the yarn I used for the straps/drawstring it is rather pink. If I remember to do it once I'm done doing the photo a day thing I'll post the instructions that I used to make the backpack. Or if I feel like it I might do that for next weeks 7 Quick Takes. We shall see though. --- 3 --- Since I couldn't think of anything to do really I decided to share a few of the graphic art things that I have done. The pictures were found on tumblr --- 4 --- I can't wait until fall because then we can have the nice cool weather that we have been having a lot this summer more often. Another thing that I can't wait for in fall is when all of the trees and plants and stuff changes color

Immaculate Mary, thy praises we sing; Who reignest in splendor with Jesus our King. Ave, ave, ave, Maria! Ave, ave, Maria!  In heaven, the blessed thy glory proclaim; On earth we, thy children, invoke thy fair name. Ave, ave, ave, Maria! Ave, ave, Maria!  We pray for God's glory; may His kingdom come; We pray for His vicar, our father, and Rome. Ave, ave, ave, Maria! Ave, ave, Maria!  We pray for our Mother, the Church upon earth, And bless, dearest Lady, the land of our birth. Ave, ave, ave, Maria! Ave, ave, Maria! 

The last two were taken by me, the rest were taken by Amanda
