Recent Fall Activities

So, this fall and Halloween was pretty fun. Nothing too exciting. I went and carved pumpkins with Tyler and his family one night and they taught me how to carve a pumpkin that wasn't just a pair of eyes and a mouth. I felt pretty good about my accomplishment. I thought I had a pretty good looking pumpkin. I called it my own gremlin, because I don't remember the actual name of it. But gremlins are always good. I will call it GremAlli. But for Halloween I dressed up as a guitar. I know, pretty clever... ok I found the idea at shopko. But I still liked it! The other girls are just my good friends that I work with at Craigo's. They make me look somewhat tall! Although one of them is taller than me, the tuner helped out a lot. Other recent news is that Tyler and I went ring shopping!!! I'm terrible because I really shouldn't be saying anything but I'm pretty darn excited. He has the ring at his house, and I don't have it on my finger. Dumb. Oh well! He says it will be soon enough! But whenever it happens I will take some pics to put on here. But that is about it for now! That is my only excitement!

It's been a while...

So it has been a long time since I have written so I decided I should probably add something even if it isn't much. So, in my life now... not too much... pretty boring. I have just finished my first year of college!! Yay! Now I still have like 3-4 years left... YUCK! Oh well, once its done it will all be good. I am so excited for that day! ha   So for the summer I have just been working a lot. Of course I am still at Craigo's, I do believe they are having me become a manager finally so hopefully that will bring more pay. It better! But it works out, I get a whole bunch of hours and the time I need off. I also started a second job at New York Burrito. I am good friends with Mandy's little sister Tara and their family owns the business and so I decided to help them out and therefore help myself out! So it is good and much needed extra money. Another kind of major thing this summer is Tyler... He and I started dating in May and things are going very well. He is a sweetheart and fun, definitely unique. He is a returned missionary, he went to Guatemala. Now he works at American Eagle as a manager. He has his generals finished and he took the past semester off but is returning in the fall to major in finance. But yeah, he is very focused with what he does. He is a great guy. :)   
But that is my life right now! Nothing too crazy. Hopefully I will have more to talk about so I can write more!

Fun Art Class

So I am taking an Elementary Art Methods class this semester. I have decided it is probably one of my favorite classes. It's only an 8 week class and we meet once a week. All we do is turn in a lesson plan each week that has to do with art and in class we just draw pictures or paint or what ever! It is great! Here are pictures of my funny art for the first 3 weeks of class.


1st week:
We drew an owl! Haha.. I tried. 


2nd week: 
We had to make some sort of creation with geometric shapes from construction paper. Most people just made shapes and threw them on there to see what you could come up with but I wanted to actually do a picture! haha 



3rd week:
Fun with water colors! Yes, all this was done with the cheap water colors from the store and a cheap little paintbrush. I'm good like that. haha, just kidding. But it was way fun!


Anyways those are just the beginning! I will post more pics when i draw more!
