Stupid Pintrest

Pintrest has giving me a false sense of craftiness.  I look through everyone else's crafts and think "Pshh I can do that"  "oh that's cute, that wouldn't be hard to make at all."   I see the captions "Easy Peasy craft 10 minutes or less" and think "A ten minute craft is just up my ally!"   And it doesn't help things that I live in Utah. I feel like I am the only LDS women/lady/girl that doesn't have a crafting website.  Kudos to me though, I at least have a blog =D.

So after looking through all of these crafts, I finally broke down and made a craft of my own.  I didn't think of it of course, I'm not that crafty yet!

Sock Snowmen



















These are the snowmen that inspired me. And I got the idea from here.



I struggled a bunch just a little bit with making my snowmen round.  The bottom was round and fat but the middle just stayed skinny.  I also didn't have another colored sock for a sweater and white on white just didn't look good. So I decided to pull out my finger paints (yes they are made for kindergartners) and finger painted my sock blue!

All in all I feel like I didn't do too shabby.  Which makes me hopeful that I can pull of my next craft....



I found the trees from here.

Dewey Decimal System

I don't know about any of you but I struggled with the Dewey Decimal System in elementary school.  One of my aunts was the school librarian and I was also scared of her because she made me find books the hard way.  I'm sorry but as a little kid finding a book by PS 3525.G930G6 is not the easiest way to find a book. And I'm not gonna lie as an adult it's not that much easier (there's also no one to help me if I get lost!)

But I have to brag about myself for just a minute.  I have now found TWO books in the USU Library using the DDS. That's right TWO. Don't worry there are only 5 levels filled with books.

I thought my aunt was crazy for making me learn how to search for a book that way. I just knew I would never ever in my entire life use the DDS to search for anything. Guess I was wrong. 


Hmmm I guess school wasn't as worthless as I thought!

Occupy The Spectrum

Hooverville, shantytown, Stewtopia, and tent city are just a few of the names people are calling it. Our tent is the small yellow and blue one at the far right against the green fence!

Round Abound

Splish Splash I was taking a bath

I love taking bubbly baths!  There is nothing better than to sit in a hot bubbly bath and relax while reading a book.

So when I saw this bath tub in Mexico I knew I had to try it out.

 This tub was amazing! I have decided that this is the size of tub I want in my house.

This is what was left of all the bubbles. 

I'm really sad I only got to use it once. But that's ok because now I  have an excuse to go back to Mexico!
