.Adventures of the M's.

I figured since this is the second post now on my siblings that i would have to be creative and come up with a name for these posts. So far I've came up with, The M's. yeah not too exciting but I'll come up with something more fun. but in the mean time here is what The M's did yesterday. :) 

(note I wrote this post yesterday but didn't get all the pictures on it until today.)

 So far today has been really fun! We woke up. Made pancakes. Got ready for the day. Dropped Mom off with Nana, leaving me in charge for the day. I took the kids to the park. In-in-out burger. Home Depot. The Bank. Hiking. Then back to home for quiet reading time and school. 

Being myself I brought my camera and took a few photos. (okay I took a lot)

what does a playground look like designed for 13-18 year olds?  

I will try my best. :P

Monte and Malachi really wanted to go hiking so they could take there 'survival' backpacks that they had filled in the morning. It was filled with blankets, stuffed animals, bandaids and they each had a stick.

Over all we had a super fun filled day! I enjoyed spending the time with my siblings. 

They are the best :)

.Aviators & Siblings.

Yesterday I was hanging out in the garage with mom as she was packing boxes. The kids were playing outside. I felt like taking pictures so I asked some of the kids if they want to be my models. 

Of course Mason ran inside grabbed his hat and aviators and started posing.

It made for a lot of laughs with my siblings as were all being a bit silly. :P

I've been using a new program for editing purposes and I wanted to explore more with the different filters it had. 

reminds me of a album cover or something  

thanks to Mason for the pictures of me 

gotta love this silly guy.
Took him to lunch yesterday. Found out doesn't like bean sprouts on his sandwiches.

.Coloring Book.

So for Christmas my Grammy got me a pack of 96 crayons. At first I was like um...Thanks...

She told me that she wanted to get me a coloring book but wanted me to pick it out so we would have to go shopping for one. As I continued to be a little puzzled of why she would get me a pack of crayons and a coloring book for Christmas, I slowly realized (more how it went - she kinda reminded me)  that I had told her a while back that something on my Bucket List was to color a whole coloring book. (silly i know) 

Last week I spent a couple days with Grammy. We looked Amazon and Barnes & Noble for a while trying to find a coloring book for me. I was surprised of how many different kinds of coloring books there are! So many to choose from. Sadly all the ones i wanted to get were all out of stock or not released until March :( but eventually i did find one that was in stock and a good price (did you know some coloring books can be $30 or more?!)  

When looking for one I knew that i didn't want a simple kids coloring book, i wanted something with more detail.  'Just Add Color ~ Botanicals' has a good amount of detail but believe me there were some that were way too detailed!!

Anyway, it arrived in the mail yesterday morning, and it made for something fun to do on a rainy day. :)

Also my brother Mason got me this really cute pencil holder.

.Packing.

Pictures have come off the wall the holes are being patched, our garage is filled with empty boxes that are being filled rather quickly. I'm packing my first box filled with stuff from my room today. Kinda sad cuz as soon as it is packed I won't be able to get to it until my next move (after this one that is). Why is that you wonder, well we are moving to a cabin in the near by mountains. The cabin is 950sq. ft. Think for a moment. 950sq. ft. 8 people and a dog. Can't really take everything with you, so we are going to be storing most of our stuff for the time we are living at the cabin. (hopefully that will be just for a year but maybe longer.) 

I'm excited to move. Looking forward to being somewhere new. New house. New people. New surroundings. I wonder what God has in store for us while we are there. 

Now I should probably start packing a box but I'm not sure what to pack first! Do I do the pictures hanging on my wall? My records? My books? My art? My craft stuff? Ahhhhhhh!!! I should probably just go for it and see what ends up in the box.  I think I might do that. Pandora is on, I've got chocolate and here I go...

So the first box of my stuff was books

~ 

Next box my artwork. 

Mom made a good point that the one with the crayons should probably be wrapped in something just incase it gets to hot and melts the crayons. 

That would be a big mess if that happened.

That's all for now.
