7 Quick Takes Friday

Image
--- 1 --- Last week as I was scrolling through Pinterest and I came across this: You have to go back and think about every episode with the Ponds and River Song this way. Is she just talking to them as companions of the Doctor or is she talking to them as her parents? That ^^^^^^^ is the comment that was with t\the picture when I repinned it. --- 2 --- School started again this week. This semester I am taking math, english and marketing. When I got my marketing textbook in the mail there was a can of Red Bull (which I don't drink) and I thought that it was kind of interesting and weird at the same time. My dad pointed out that it was a marketing scheme to make you interested in getting Red Bull. If you are ever interested in renting text books instead of buying them you can check out Chegg.com , because they have decent prices for renting books and they tell you how to ship the book(s) back once the semester is over. --- 3 --- The first episode of Doctor Who S...

Couldn't think of a creative name......

I guess you could call this a throwback Thursday post because I finished the blanket back at the beginning of May and just got around to taking pictures of the finished product now. Pinterest is to blame for giving me the idea to make this blanket, though I don't remember where the original pin that I got the idea from went too. I had started making it last year using up the rest of a pink flannel sheet that was in our material bucket, but then I ran out of that so it sat around for a while by our sewing machine until I found a large grey flannel sheet. Here are a couple pictures of the blanket that I took. This is a just because photo While I could have made it a little nicer I like how it turned out :) "Rose it wasn't a dream." - Waking Rose "It was a dream come true." - Waking Rose

The Adventure of Sherpork Holmes

This is a story that I wrote back when I was eleven. Why it had to be a story about pigs I don't know, but here it is, enjoy :) The adventure begins in Pork City on July 18th, 1818. The Hams children, Lily, Peter, George and Henry, were playing in their yard. Then, who should come along but the Big Bad Goose. He started to chase them around the yard. They all ran oinking into the house. Mr. Ham called Sherpork Holmes to save the day. Meanwhile the Big Bad Goose was trying to get into the house. He got in and kidnapped Peter and Lily, who were twins, then ran off. Then who should enter the scene but Sherpork Holmes and his faithful friend Doc Bacon. Mr. Ham told them what had happened in the last few minutes or so. Then off they went in search of the Big Bad Goose. The Big Bad Goose soon got to his lair, and there he dropped Lily and Peter. Sherpork Holmes and Doc Bacon were nearing the lair, which was about 30 miles from Pork City, in Chop Mountain. Chop Mountain is very high an...

Long Lost Art That I Drew

Image
The other day my mom was sorting through a bunch of boxes and found some of the art work and stories/book reports that Amanda, Yavi and I have done. So I decided to share the art work that I drew when I was younger. The two stories that I wrote when I was younger will make an appearance on here as well :) The butterfly picture is the only drawing that I know what age I was when I drew it and the other ones are some time around then. I am not sure why it is a sad butterfly Abstract Art I think this is suppose to be me with Amanda, Yavi Aaliyah and our parents It looks like these are pumpkins and that they are suppose to be me and my sisters. I think this one was drawn after one of my siblings was born. Not sure who this is suppose to be a drawing of.

I know it sounds like a dog poster, but it’s true!   credit goes to my sister Yavi for making the poster and to Aaliyah had a part to play with coming up with this as well I believe.

Random Middle of the Week Post

This week is my family's vacation. On the 26th our church was having a BBQ with the Bishop to help raise money for the shrine to St. Gianna Molla and one Sunday we went to a presentation that one of my dad's cousin's was giving by the canal about an art piece that he did and was in the canal. Monday morning we went for a seventeen mile bike ride and it took us 2 hours and 15 mins to do it all. The first part of the ride was really nice because the trail went through some forest preseves as well as past some nice subdivisions. Once we were done we all agreed that we could have gone without the second half of the loop because it went past a bunch of smelly warehouses and past several busy roads. We were sore after that and when we got home most of us took naps. Tuesday afternoon we went to the waterpark that is about 25 minutes from our house. It was fun. One of the water slides that I went on was covered and pitch black so it was a little scary going down. When AJ went down...

7 Quick Takes Friday

Image
--- 1 --- Since it as been a while since I did a 7 Quick Takes post on here I decided to do it again this week instead of doing a not very well structured post of what I am saying here. Plus I needed to do a post since I didn't do one last week. --- 2 --- Tuesday evening my sisters and I had a bonfire at our house with a bunch of friends. Even though I missed most of the event, because I had to work late, I still got to see some friends that I haven't seen in a while. After a while there was a free lightning show. --- 3 --- On Wednesday we had chiropractor appointment and it was amazing, especially since we haven't gone in a while. --- 4 --- The nice thing about the brief rain storm that we had Tuesday night was the cooler weather that came with it. One thing that I don't like during summer is the really hot days, so any less hot or cool summer days that come around I enjoy. So having cooler weather after having rather hot weather the day before is a ni...
