Today's event: Shooting Callie's gun in the boonies.

And there's Callie. CUTE!!!

There was this half full Dr. Pepper bottle that every one was trying to shoot at. I was last to go and Callie joked that I'd get it. Sure enough....

 We also hit a box. Oh, this is the box that my father so kindly sent my retainer and towels in. It turned out to be excellent target practice.

Callie:

And the shells...

Earth Works

For my Art Orientations class we had the assignment to do a group Earth Work. For example, works such as the Spiral Jetty, the rock circles in England or crop circles. My group decided to do a large foot made out of lots of little rocks (or, little as apposed to the foot. They were pretty big rocks.) We spent 2 hours working.

At first we all started going up and down this hill hauling these huge rocks to the field, but after about twenty grueling minutes--and VERY few rocks to show for it--we switched to pulling flat rocks out of a ditch with a stream running through it which turned out to be a HUGE life saver. Not only were the rocks lighter and smaller, they covered a lot more space, cutting back on the amount of time we spent there. Two people were in the ditch, two people traveled between the ditch and the foot and I stayed at the foot puzzle piecing the rocks together. Can we say death? Two hours of bending over to fit these pieces together. My back feels really buff now.

We mostly used big rocks for the toes.

 As you can see, the pinky toe of our foot is just about as big as my forearm.

The first day we found our spot it was overcast and the wind was blowing like crazy. Right next to the field we chose is this old abandoned barn and there was this squeaky door on the barn that would open and slam closed with the wind. It was just us three girls and we were all pretty sure that we were in a horror film and that Zombies were going to come out and the only evidence of us would be Sarah's old abandoned car.

 Because Sarah was taking pictures of all of us by the foot, I decided to take a picture of her.

It's pretty rad. There was absolutly no way we were hauling all those rocks back, so we decided to leave them. Sorry Mr. Farmer. Think of it as our gift to you. :) Wonder how long it'll stay there...

Last but not least. I kinda happened to record a little bit, so... this is my team. Bray, Mat, Carlisle(yes, her name is Carlisle), Sarah, and Hannah.

Home For a Bit

Went home for about three days this weekend! Funny story. I was going to leave with a friend on Friday around 11:30 am but I was swamped with art homework that I HAD to get done. So, I had my dad come and get me around 7. It was ridiculous. The project I was working on was creating 6 new shapes and then putting them on a specific piece of paper. 

 And here, of coarse, is Kayla being beautiful! <3 Look close. She sculpted an eye.

 Once we were done with that we had to choose our favorite shape and do it big. BEAUTIFUL!

Everything was so surreal, and cold. I forgot how hot Ephraim was compared to Cache Valley. I was throwing on Sweaters left and right. Not to mention how quiet the nights were. I'm used to fans running all night long because it's too darn hot to sleep without one blowing on you.


The next day I went to go visit my Puppy. This is the first time since he's died that I've been able to see him. My niece has been a sweetheart through this whole thing. I don't think she fully understands it all, but she loves to decorate his grave with rocks, sticks and beautiful yellow flower's because he was "such a happy dog". Love you puppy.

My 10 month old nephew was there as well. He's a cuttie!! And really likes the phone. Haha

Talking with his mom.
And Katie, wearing the latest in sock and sandle fashion.

Family Dinner Sunday night!!!

 And MaKell was there. Such a sweetheart to come down on a Sunday evening just to say hi. :)

Jaxon thoroughly enjoyed his stake.

And Friends <3
