Art from the Heart

A couple weeks ago I got an idea for a canvas to make for when Carli and I move into a different room. I just finally finished it today. It will be a constant reminder of the one who is always there even when we don't feel it. Which is how I've been feeling a lot lately, so this painting is like a small encouragement.

Beat the Heat.... {the fun way}

                Just a few thing we've done and you can do to stay cool in this amazing weather.

1. Run through a sprinkler with your clothes on. If you feel a little crazy doing this as a teenager, grab a younger sibiling. We did it with some younger kids from church after a cookout on Sunday.

2. Wash your parents car. It's a great way to serve them, but have an excuse to go crazy with the hose.

3. Start a random water fight or water ballon fight. Water balloons make it way funner.

4. Put your swimsuit on, grab a sprinkler and put it under your trampoline. We actually did this with Moriah the other, day it was super duper fun!

5. Walk or drive to a local gas staton and get a slushey. we legit do this like every day.

6. Go to a pool, and then call me and invite me! :) I haven't been swimming yet this year. *hint-hint*

Happy Memorial day!!

                                                        yep, have a good one!

This Summer

Some things I kinda feel like I need for summer, or want.

                   I just saw these the other day at Old Navy. And, I love them. Cute, simple and fun!

                                                  A great dress from AE for summer.

                          Some great bright colors for summer. Plus, Carli has it and it's amazing!!

                                             Who doesn't need some cute jean shorts??

                                       i definitely need these. if only they were at my forever21

                                                                   pretty tunic :)

Carli's Usual Look

                         that's what you get for putting a picture like that on the computer.

Spring

Sorry for not posting in like two weeks. I've really wanted to, but just been at a loss for what to do. I finally came up with something.

The past couple days we have been blessed with some beautiful weather, definitely shorts and flip-flop kind of weather. Which is wonderful, a nice change from all the rain. Yesterday I got the chance to steal Moriah's camera and take a couple "springy" shots.

            This tree is in our front yard, I absolutely LOVE when it blooms, it is soooo pretty :)

                                                just last week, I swear these trees were bare

                                                the weeds popped up, matter of fact, i need to go pull these

                

Happy Birthday To Her!!!

Yes, it is my b-day of course. But, I wanted to make a post dedicated to the lovely Carli. Happy Birthday Twin!!!!! I couldn't ask for a better sister of best friends. You are amazing and always will be. Enjoy your day, spent with me!!! :)
