The Elk

So my therapist Pam said I needed to do something for me...well that was a tall order. After some thought, I decided to paint an elk that I have had for over 10 years....here is the the project beginning to end...... (9AM done at 4 :30 PM).





Look close, I was trying to make it look like there were likens growing on the rock the elk is standing on.
 
 





Well now its done, and I think I need another ceramic project...it was relaxing. Dan will help me spray him with lacquer and I can put him among all my other Nick knacks to enjoy.

Till next time!!!!  :-}

Carson @ Simplot Indoor Meet

I was not able to go to watch my boy run at the Simplot Games this year :-( But he called as soon as he was done with his 200 Meter heat. He ran in heat 3 lane 4 and finished 2nd in his heat by 100th of a second with a time of 23.89. see below, he was so excited that he was only 7 off from the finals. He said there were 111 runners for the 200 this year.
Last year he ran a 24.30, and was like 41st over all.
I'm proud of him and I KNOW he will have a great outdoor track season. :-)



Amanda is off on her Graduation trip to Disneyland and Christs well, she is being Christa.....
Untill next time!!!!

Family...kids....life...

WOW! Where to start...... I guess Amanda is the best place :-) She finally graduated from Dental Hygiene School Friday night Feb 8, 2013...We are really proud of her, and she WILL do well in her chosen career.  The pin around her neck is customary for Dental Hygiene grads, this is one of 13 of the FIRST from Fortis College. YEAH AMANDA!!!!
 
 
 
Last month January 31, 2013 I got to be a judge fir the Kemmerer Middle School Science Fair, it was a BLAST! I loved the creativity and enthusiasm of most of the kids, and enjoyed working with the other four judges too. :)
 
 
 
 


 Another "SHOUT OUT" goes to my Brother-in-law Jesse, he graduated Boot Camp the 7th of Feb in Georgia. He is now off to training in Communications...we ARE  really proud of him too, and the good choices he has made. It will be nice in August when we finally get to see him again.
 
 
 
So now with that I will leave you with a final thought from Bugs.....Today is Sunday, and I thought this said it well. Loony Tunes philosophy is always a good thing to live by :-)
 
Love to all!!!!!
