Christmas Time!

christmas-time

Well its Christmas Once more! So a few weekends ago I took a tour at the rosevelt mansion (just for something to do really) Unfortunately they dont allow pictures inside but I got some of the beautiful christmas trees in the museum shop place. And a few shots outside. I need ro learn how to focus this camera better though. Or maybe its just the motion blur from shaky hand… and to long exposure…. any way here those pics are…

Now what we all wait for EVERY Christmas! THE BIG BASH! THE BIG ELEPHANT! White Elephant! The White elephant party! YAAA WOOOOO and the crowd goes wild! Ok any way. So this year same deal Bells house potluck every hip person was there. Including the Morrises this year. Mostly the pictures tell the story but…. Let me just say… THOSE SCARY YELLOW SALT AND PEPPER SHAKER CHICKS ARE BACK! And some how this year they ended back where they started… With US… But oh no I will be rid of them next year! They been trying to get back to us and they did but no not for long! And there were a few fights over some cook book holders. Mrs. Bradford and Mrs. Morris……. SMH (shakes my head) Then there was lots of cookies and some massive thumb war fights! Epic fails at caroling… And Josh danceing to it. You can see that video in the video section as usual its quite funny. And so here let the pictures tell the rest… (read the captions)

Josh ended up with his nice little jewelry box full of chocolate. People were trying to trade them anything they could get their hands on for the chocolate… Frida tried to bargain with MY CAMERA and James with my NEW COOL TOTALLY AWESOME Extremely long Santa hat! Every one loves it so much! I wore it to school and got so many comments! lol But any way back to white elephant. Also my dad at the end (I missed it) But apparently he countered Mr. Holmes “Do I have a heart? No” Comment with “I have a heart” And gave Mrs. Holmes some books for that blasted yellow chick! lol Oh and How we got the two of them Tim stole my picture frame for the other blasted little chick! AHHH for ever haunted! Any way. After that some of us went around and ran out side a bit. Then when it was just me the bells and bradfords we played ERS and ARIELLE WON AGAIN! (she keeps winning) Yup that was the night! Fun stuff!  Here are a few more silly pics of me just to remind you what I look like lately. (I got my bangs again) Like my new hair style?

Merry Christmas!

A challenge…?

by Joy on Dec.14, 2009, under The Rest of my Life

a-challenge

Life is a challenge…. but thats not what i came to say… If you want to know what im going though in my personal non internet life ask me on the phone lol…. lol Any who… Um I was inspired believe it or not by the movie “Julie and Julia” today to possibly… give myself a little challenge. *Raises one eyebrow* Design AT LEAST 2 if not 3 NEW t-shirt designs a week for…. a year straight! for those of you who cant do math… Thats 8 a month and 96 in a year…. My idea is to start a mini blog on some site that like Live Journal or Blog.com or blogger. (someplace that has like a community and people who search other blogs on the site host and that has like featured blogs so on…so that i dont have to worry about getting searched by google so on….) And post the new designs every week on there and promote and hope people in that blog community become avid readers… AND (if you havent seen my zazzle shop) SELL MY DESIGNS! So Do you dare me to design 2 or maybe even MORE a week for a year STRAIGHT! ?!?!?!?! (I will let you all know the link to the blog if or when i start it) Let me know INSPIRE ME folks! I need the encouragement right now.
