I love the feel of mud between my toes

Yesterday we went to the Fender museum with our homeschool group.  It was cool!  There are, um, lots of guitars.  Because. . .it’s a guitar museum.  There’s this big rack of guitars in the entryway, with a bunch of signatures that I didn’t recognize, hehe.

If you’re thinking that I look incredibly rockstarish, then you’re darn [...]

Taking Pictures (My first photo shoot)

While we were at Hume for Christmas, I asked the Hoods to be my guinea pigs in portraiture.

We had a lot of fun.

Aren’t they a good-looking family?

:)

Haha. . .I guess I never did tell you what I was for Halloween.  Well, I was Mr. Mistofelees.  I wore black tights and a black sweater.  I used some leftover sparkly white fabric as my tux pattern – safety pinned a triangle on my shirt.  I also made ears.  =P  It was very fun. [...]

“Oh,” I said, “Uh…I hadn’t planned on it.” Actually, I had completely forgotten about it. “Are you going?”
“My dad can probably give you a ride there, and he can [...]

Kels and Me at Oireachtas

Oireachtas is an Irish word meaning “Regional Competition for Irish Dance.” Basically. I’m in the Western US Region, and I competed on Friday. I didn’t place, which was disappointing, but there were over 100 dancers in my group, a lot of which are in a higher level than me. You’re not [...]

Candy Corn

When you see this picture, what do you think? Do you wonder why we are standing in front of a large candy corn? Well, I’ll tell you why. Because it’s there. It’s a large candy corn in front of Disney’s California Adventure, and it’s in place of the last A in [...]
