This journal is friends only but if you would like to be added just leave me a comment. I am always open to meeting new people. :) The only entries that will be public from now on are some art posts and Writer's Block.

Seventh Wonder!!! All members are true musicians. Give them a listen. I never get tired of hearing Tommy's voice and the guitars are AMAZING. Their music always gets me hyped up and puts me in a great mood.

(Ok. So maybe it's kinda hard to say who is the best of all time. There really is no such thing. I love music too much but SW is at the top of my list right now and has been for the past year since I discovered them.)

This was from the last time we saw Kamelot in Septemer.



I need to share the pics from that night as well. We have other videos but it was so LOUD that they turn into sound blurs. This one gets fuzzy towards the end. This was only part of his solo.

We watched the launch from Spaceview Park in Titusville, FL.



Sorry it took so long to post this. I'm a slacker. Joel filmed it on our D-Cam. (That's his voice you hear.) I tried to film on my phone but between holding Ayla up and tryng to hide my tears it didn't turn out so well. Needless to say, it was awesome.

My 10 year old daughter, who is normally a total scaredy cat, has decided that she loves spooky halloween stuff. I had to endure chasing the girls around Spirit Halloween about 6 times this year; everyday they'd ask to go to the halloween store.

They have this mirror that flashes an image of Bloody Mary and screams so Aeries started asking me about her story. We looked it up last night and she kept asking me if it really happens. I assured her countless times that it is just a story that people made up, like Captain Underpants and such. So after the kids got their baths, she told me to turn off the light and say Bloody Mary in front of the mirror. I had both girls stand with me in front of their giant bathroom mirror and she chikened out. Instead, we decided to call upon something that wasn't quite as scary. So we turned off the lights and in unison we said:

( prepare to be frightened )

Taken December 31, 2011 at one of my favorite parks. (I posted this to NaturesBeauty as well.)

I put together this necklace the other night while we watched White Collar. I really like that show. Royal Pains is pretty good as well.(All materials from Walmart and Michaels.)



( More images of necklace here. )
Here's the wrap dress I made a while back. You take a long skirt, cut the bottom off, cut that into 2 long pieces and sew them to the top of the skirt. I love these and they are really simple.

Try to open my eyes enough to check the clock and stay awake. Then I usually fail and fall back asleep.

Unfortunately, no.
