Welcome to my new adventures in painting! Before I start let me say these are not perfect professional quality! These are my fun quality! I have never been able to draw very well but always like to try. A business here in town called Simply Yours does fun laid back painting classes. They tell you what to do and you pick out your colors and do it. (They explain step by step directions.) After taking the class I became hooked on painting! I find pictures on Pinterest and try to duplicate or add my own touch. </div>

This bird picture is the reason I am hooked! It was really very simple to do. Some ladies picked pinks, purples and blues for their sky but I was not brave to stray away from the original. (lol) </div>

Painting words is the hardest thing for me right now. I cant get the paint thick enough or letters straight enough and spaced right. But I am ok with all this being a beginner. </div>

I found a few pumpkins to try. I really like to paint these! I have not figured out the blending yet. Also, I did not have canvases so I just used the watercolor paper I had here. Its very thick. Then I was thinking maybe I could switch these out with the pictures I already have framed, hanging up. (That didn't work....The watercolor papers are bigger than an 8x10.)</div>

This was my favorite! So many colors to layer. I don't really like waiting for one color to dry before I did the next part. Loved doing the spider webs and the spider. Lettering like this is alot easier than little thin letters for me. more fun also!</div>

I am so happy how my "BOO" turned out. The feet were a little rough going with a 3 year old helper that doesn't stop moving. But she was so excited to help me out! Thanks to Husband for cutting out my candy corns for me. I like how they turned out.<span style="text-align: left;"> </span></div>

Another favorite! Wasn't sure how to do the shoes but they turned out. Thanks for hanging out and seeing all my new projects. The norm is "My crafty usually turns out crappy". But in this case, I am a proud lady! Watch my blog to see what other craziness I decide to try. </div>

Hello and Be*You*tiful afternoon to everyone! I am beyond excited to say that right now The Mattoon team for the Mattoon to Peoria run for St. Jude Children's Hospital and Research Center are $45 away from $71,000!!! Our goal is to reach $100,000 by August 1. That is only 31 days left can we do it? Can you help us? Each runner had to earn a minimum of $750 to participate in the run. This is a relay style run that covers about 130 miles in 2 days.<br />
<br />
Here are a few facts from this years Mattoon team: <br />
Team Mattoon by the numbers:<br />
77 Runners <br />
(20 Volunteers will make the trip too)<br />
26 Runners are over $1000<span class="text_exposed_show"><br /> 21 additional Runners have made at least the minimum<br /> 11 other Runners are within $250 of the minimum<br /> 31 days til we launch</span><br />
<div class="text_exposed_show">
Finding Cures. Saving Children.<br />
<br />
Here are a few facts about St. Jude and what they do:<br />
<strong style="color: magenta; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif;"><span data-mce-style="font-size: 12pt;" style="font-size: 12pt;">Did you know?</span></strong><br />
<ul>
<li><span data-mce-style="font-size: large; font-family: helvetica;" style="font-size: medium;"><span style="color: red; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Families
never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing and
food—because all a family should worry about is helping their child
live.</span></span></li>
<li><span data-mce-style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;" style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="color: blue; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><b>Because
the majority of St. Jude funding comes from individual contributors,
St. Jude has the freedom to focus on what matters most – saving kids
regardless of their financial situation.</b></span></span></li>
<li><span data-mce-style="font-size: large; font-family: helvetica;" style="font-size: medium;"><span style="color: magenta; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">St. Jude is working to drive the overall survival rate for childhood cancer to 90 percent in the next decade.</span></span></li>
<li><span data-mce-style="font-size: large; font-family: helvetica;" style="font-size: medium;"><span style="color: #6aa84f; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">St. Jude has helped increase the survival rates for acute lymphoblastic
leukemia (ALL) from 4% before opening in 1962 to 94% today.</span></span></li>
<li><span data-mce-style="font-size: large; font-family: helvetica;" style="font-size: medium;"></span></li>
<li><span style="color: red; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Because we have seen our patients with brain tumors improve
dramatically through proton therapy, we are building the world’s first
proton therapy center dedicated solely to treating children.</span></li>
<li><span style="color: blue; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">St. Jude researchers and doctors have research and treatment
programs for children with pediatric HIV and AIDS, as well as using new
drugs and therapies to fight related infections. </span></li>
</ul>
Please help me to help these children by donating to my Run Fund by clicking the link below (if that doesn't work you can copy and paste to your address bar). You have the easy part of Donating. I will do the hard part of running for those who can't!<br />

I have decided to sign up for the Mattoon to Peoria St. Jude Run. I AM NOT A RUNNER! For some reason God keeps calling me back to run again. I have coached Girls on the Run for 3 seasons and this coming fall will be my fourth. The first two seasons I was not super excited about. The third I was very excited about at the end and said yes immediately to a fourth! God has called me to running yet again for the Mattoon to Peoria Run. None of these are selfish, I just want to run for myself, projects. These are helping others and doing what I can, (or trying). Now God is calling me again to run. I have come across a running program online called Run For God( http://www.runforgod.com/ ). It incorporates training for a 5k and lessons about God. This is something I have not been able to get out of my head for a couple of weeks now. At this point I cannot even run more than 1 block. I have to be able to run 4 miles at a time in just a few weeks. August 1 & 2 to be exact! I am definitely scared but I have a huge support team. My parents, Husband, my children friends from work and church family. I know God will pull me through this if he wants me to do it. I cannot wait to run for St. Jude.<br />

This woman Molly Barker is AMAZING and INSPIRING! I am so proud to be a Girls on the Run Coach!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
There is so much Girls on the Run items out there. Pinterest has a ton! I keep finding more and more ideas on there. Program she has developed is also AMAZING! I love that it helps build self esteem and combat bullying. There are a lot of kids that don't always here the positives about themselves. If you have or know of a boy or girl from 3rd to 8th grade, you should check our Girls on the Run or Stride programs in your area!</div>

Sorry I haven't posted in while. Girls on the Run was so much fun. The girls were all very motivational to each and the coaches. Their attitudes are why each one was a huge success! Congratulations to all the girls in our group and all the other groups nationwide! You are awesome! Here are a few pics from the Fall 2012 season.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: magenta; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I just want to say that I am beyond excited to be a Girls on the Run coach for the fall season!! WOOT WOOT!!! I will start by saying that I am not a runner. But if these girls can do it, well then so can I. I am so grateful to have the chance to be a POSITIVE influence the lives of the girls I will get to work with. Also, I am working with 3 other wonderful women who I will get to be a co-coach with. Girls on the Run is soooo much more than just a bunch of girls going out and running. We will be there to help the girls with self-esteem, expressing themselves, making good choices, creating healthy habits and helping in the community! This is such a positive program for girls grades 3-8. If you know a girl this age and she has an opportunity to join the program, let her! If this is not in your area then see what you can do to get it there! Here is a link to the website for more info. </span><a href="http://www.girlsontherun.org/"><span style="color: magenta; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">http://www.girlsontherun.org/</span></a></div>

<span style="color: #0b5394;">Yesterday we got to finally take Daddy to the Visitor's Center and go on a tour of the dam. Well Elle and I didn't get to go down in the dam. She was being a little pistol. But, I sent Baily and Husband to go. We started at the Visitor's Center. Elle ran around and showed Daddy all the cool stuff. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Since today is an absolutely gorgeous day outside, we are having some outside fun time. We started the morning with pancakes and fruit for breakfast. I decided we should take Daddy to the Visitor's Center since he had not been there. We walked around inside for a bit then walked around outside to see the beautiful view of the lake. There were not any butterflies in the butterfly garden today. But, on a positive note, the plants were ALOT greener everywhere than the last time the kids and I went. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
After we came home, had a spot of lunch and outside we go!!! It's horrible to have to force a 10 year old to go outside. Why can't they think of something to do on their own! I can't even blame tv or video games at our house because we don't to video games unless it is winter. Maybe if it is raining, and we do not have cable! I hate that it is pure laziness. A 10 year old should not prefer to just sit on the couch and do ABSOLUTELY NOTHING as opposed to riding his bike, making forts for G.I. Joes or even just playing with them for that matter! I just don't get it. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
anyways off my rant for now. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So we made the boy go outside and play. He proceeds to just walk around following us. Hello!!! Go find something to do. Bring some toys out or something. So He finally brings some G.I. Joes out to play with. That lasted maybe 30 minutes and he just sits there leaning against the house. I asked whats wrong. "I'm bored." So find something else to do. All the while I have a 1 year old in her play pin playing, Husband working with the new puppy, Jigs, and me trying to be crafty and get some projects done today. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
No clue what this leg is off of. Husband found 2 of them in the garage and I decided it would be a great body for a dragonfly! So starts the process. Husband sanded this piece for me a while ago. Next, I found some tin in the yard to cut wings out of. Sorry, but this will not all get done or posted today. It will be a long process to do. This dragonfly is going to represent Husband's mom Kristie who we lost last September to cancer. She loved dragonflies. She will have a green body and blue and purple wings. I hope she turns out as cute as she is in my head! </div>

I scored these awesome butterflies at our garage sale. I think my mom has had them for 30 years! lol. They will be a great addition to Elle's walls one day. I picked purple because it is one of my favorite colors.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Today I have a few ramblins goin on in my head! Some may say they are rattlins, but I think not. haha. Last night there was a hard storm come through here. Husband has not had doors on his truck for a couple months now. I had to drive his Tonka truck to run a few errands this morning. (Husband has been driving my car to work). I drove it by yself for the first time and I love t odrive it now! It's so fun! Elle Mae's car seat was still in the truck from a little cruise we all took last night. Husband was trying to get Jigs used to being crated and riding. So Elle Mae and I had the cab all to ourselves since Husband rode in the back talking to Jigs.</div>

I said I would come back out and put Elle's seat back in my car later. Then, I had a change of mind. If I had to drive the truck during the day her seat would still be here. So, silly me left it in the truck with no doors! Needless to say, we both had wet hineys this morning. (I did put towels in her seat and mine). But we made it through the errands. </div>

On to more ramblins! Look Poppo! Elle Mae loves the little table and chairs too! There is a picture of Baily and I eating dinner at this table somewhere. </div>

As I read these, I will be marking them off the list. Most everyone of these are very much out of my reading element. I am trying to step outside the box and try something new. I am ready for some new adventures in my life. I have read a few of the books on the 100 list. But they were the more common Percy Jacksons and Harry Potters. It is time to branch out! Feel free to leave comments on these or suggestions for other books whether they are kids or adults. I do have a 1 year old and 10 year old that can use suggestions.</div>

Last night as we were sitting in the living room and Elle was playing, she decided to have a new adventure. Not exactly sure why or what she was thinking, but this is what came from it all!</h4>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Let me start off by saying my daughter and my job are my inspiration for this project. I LOVE jewelry! Especially shiny jewelry, but with a small child and my job, sometimes it isn't always the best! I work in a classroom with k-2 children. I don't want expensive jewelry broken and sometimes children get a tad rough while looking at your jewelry by pulling on it. Well, these pendents I have been working on are LIGHT WEIGHT (as a lot of jewelry is too heavy), INEXPENSIVE, COLORFUL, AND FUN! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I started by cutting the sides out of a milk jug. Next, I drew some shapes on the plastic. I used circles just because I traced washers. Cut out the shapes you chose to draw. I drilled holes in each circle for the jump rings.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then, I just applied mod podge and glued on fabric or paper. (I had cut a bunch of pictures and patterns out of magazines the past few months and made magnets the same way!)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkpCbu0FuR1h9NcCggQlCv5Py4wC5H-jX5aN6yZznTpFFgzASqKrTNxY8eubidk3b0w19oHjJ5PmsfQlnKyHdn_Bj-yOMuFCQ7_-JPeKmkAPs0FlhTNI7jnwRkFpJp6Ra_p1fDSKwO2fM/s1600/DSCF4453.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="213" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkpCbu0FuR1h9NcCggQlCv5Py4wC5H-jX5aN6yZznTpFFgzASqKrTNxY8eubidk3b0w19oHjJ5PmsfQlnKyHdn_Bj-yOMuFCQ7_-JPeKmkAPs0FlhTNI7jnwRkFpJp6Ra_p1fDSKwO2fM/s320/DSCF4453.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Let the mod podge dry about 10 mins, and trim the edges. Now I do have to tell you. I forgot to drill holes for jump rings in a few of the pieces before I glued fabric. When I went back to drill the holes, The fabric twisted and came off. I had to re-glue and punch a hole with a nail in the fabric. I mod podged all of the circles again, and could drill through the pieces of shapes that I did with paper. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I found a couple of thick plastic pieces one day when Elle and I were out on a walk. I thought these would be kinda cool to make a pendent. People wear huge necklaces all the time and look great!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I spray painted one with a metallic paint.</div>

I traced the shape on a piece of red paper out of a magazine. Chopped out some sayings. I mod podged the shape, stuck the paper on, and let it dry. Next, I podged over the red paper and stuck down the words. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
And then podged over the words. I am looking for the right sparkling butterfly sticker and a lady bug to add to this side. I forgot to mention that I have been doing all the pieces double sided. Therefore, you get 2 in 1!</div>

This is about a 1.5x3 piece of wood I found on one of our walks. I also painted one side of this with the metallic paint. Then drilled the hole for a jump ring. I kinda liked this piece for something a bit natural.</div>

A few close ups. I did not get all the bubbles out of this one because I drilled on one side and went to put pics on the opposite side. I did not think about where the plastic had pushed through from drilling. I should have sanded down the holes. (I love some Mercer Mayer!) I thought this one would be fun for work. Also these are very light weight so when Elle is a couple years older she will have necklaces also that she can wear.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #8e7cc3;">Today I finally got brave enough to let Elle play in her sand box. (okay so it's a PLASTIC SAND TUB! whatever) It's a great little box for a first time sander! (And it has a lock lid to keep out the critters!) </span></div>

<span style="color: #674ea7;">This turned out to be a great experience! (Except for putting sandy hands in mom's hair. Oh well, I'll take it for a good first experience in the sand box!)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #674ea7;">I am so glad she liked it! I think we might bury some treasure (toys) in the sand and have to dig them out! Maybe I enjoy this more than Elle. We will also be getting a small bowl of water to in one end to make a swimming pool for the people and animals! I got this off of Big Play in Small Spaces! It is such a great website. </span><a href="http://innerchildfun.com/2012/06/big-play-in-small-spaces.html"><span style="color: #674ea7;">http://innerchildfun.com/2012/06/big-play-in-small-spaces.html</span></a></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #674ea7;">I am sure that my beach or swimming pool will not look near as cool as theirs. But I will make it better as Elle gets older and cares a little more! I am so excited! I hope she is more creative at playing than her brother! I can't wait to come up with more outdoor activities to do with her. (Besides chasing her.) I would love to build forts with Baily but he is just not too interested. Maybe this one will like Fairy houses. Or, maybe she will like garages for her cars or something! Who knows what she will be like in a couple of years!</span></div>

<span style="color: #38761d;">I have found one of the best sites for busy bags. This site has MANY ideas and links to other sites for busy bags! Very helpful. Although Elle is only 1, I will be making some to have ready for when she is just a tad bigger. Who knows, maybe I can find some for Baily also who is 10! </span></div>

Today the kids and I went on a little country cruise to see a goat tower over by Findlay. I got a pic but not a great one.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Then a nice little country cruise back to Shelbyville to the Visitor's Center. We had never been there, sooo I thought we better check it out. (Especially since it was over 100 outside!) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There is a little model of a hut in the Visitor's Center. When you go in it, a voice starts telling you information and there's animal noises that begin.</div>

<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"><strong> </strong><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: small;">Robert Root (1864-1937) is best known for his 1918 painting of the
Lincoln-Douglas debate held in Charleston, Illinois, in 1858. This painting is
in the Governor's Office in Springfield. A large-scale color reproduction is
exhibited at the new Lincoln-Douglas Debate Museum in Charleston. Root studied
at the Cooper Union Art School, New York City, Washington University School of
Fine Arts in St. Louis, and the Academé Julien in Paris, France. In the early
1890s he returned to live in Shelbyville. </span></span><span style="font-family: inherit;">

ROBERT ROOT'S LIFE AND HIS OBITUARY ARE </span><a href="http://www.alincolnlearning.us/robertrootlife.html"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: small;">HERE</span></a></big></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Root made his living primarily from portraits,
like that of Eastern Illinois University's first president, Livingston C. Lord,
on view in Eastern Illinois University's Old Main. Two portraits are included in
the Tarble exhibition. But he was also an Impressionist style landscape
painter.. In the 1920's Root joined Coles County's Paul Sargent as the
two non-Indiana members of the Brown County Artists Association.

I have also put some on here for indoors and outdoors depending on the weather and where you are. These can be done in the car, in a store, or a short walk around town.</span></div>

This morning the kids and I went to the Shelby County 4H Fair to check and see what it's all about. Not alot to do but there is a whole bunch of animals. We saw cattle, sheep, rabbits, owls, pigs, ducks, roosters and hens. Maybe this will help Elle figure out that not EVERY animal is a goggie (doggie). I couldn't get pics of the kids petting the animals since I was holding Elle. There were some very nice little fellers showing us around and holding some of the animals.</div>

Kris is a VERY analytical person. Anything you say he wants to break down and analyze every part of it. (Sometimes VERY frustrating!) This is his way of learning and understanding. Okay, so he and I have been in the same discussion before. At the last presidential election, I tried to look at both parties and vote for what I thought was the lesser of two evils. This is very hard to do. Both guys had things I did agree with and did not agree with. Again trying to choose the lesser of two evils. (This was also the first time I had ever voted for a president.) I am one who feels that if you don't vote then don't complain that we put the wrong person in the office. My husband brings up the points about every person running for office says they will change this or that and they stand for this or that. Who is to say they are not lying just to get the votes? Most of them don't end up changing what they are saying they will change. If they do, things will not be fixed in this country in 4 years. It's a big place. Things may get worse before they get better before great change is complete. At the end of the term, everyone says, "things are not fixed so let's elect someone else with a different approach." Again, the government tries to adhere to the new plan of action. Again, a change that will take much time to complete and work correctly and get a majority on board. Now, truely there will always be people in the country that will not agree or care and still do things there own way or illegal. YOU CAN'T CHANGE EVERYONE'S OPINIONS! That's a given. We can't exactly go back to when George Washington laid it all out for us and told us how it was. Times have changed. Some for the better and some for the worse. Obviously new technology is great. Internet, motorized vehicles, indoor plumbing, etc... There are some bad and some good in everything. Obviously all internet is not soo great. But I love that if I need to know something I have all of the knowlege in the world at my finger tips. Sure I can go to the library and the info I'm looking for may be there, but it may not. Also, internet is soo much faster, this leaving more time to learn more things or play with family, hang out with friends. Now, like I said I know there is bad out there. Internet bullying, child porn, identitiy theft, etc... This all been around the entire time just not on the net. People were bullied before, people stole identities before, people abused child privacy before. There will always be bad people in the world, and that will never change. I do believe that crimes should have stricter punishment. You abuse a child, you should be in jail longer than the person who was caught with weed. Yes weed is illegal and no I'm not for it. But, on the other hand more people get hurt from alocohol than weed. People don't die from smoking too much week. People don't get in the car and kill other drivers and passengers from too much weed. They do with alcohol. People who kill or shoot another person, obviously there are circumstances. Was it self defense, just plain hatred, jealously, trying to get in to that gang? But in my opinion, some people can change. Some people will never change. In self defense I can agree with that. Someone breaks into your house, you feel threatened for the safety of you and your family. By all means protect yourself. Shoot them in a place that won't kill them if possible. (I would freak out and shoot anywhere and keep shooting until I ran out of bullets if I felt that much harm.) Sone people don't think rationally in those circumstances. Either way, That person should not have been in your house or causing you harm. If they live, give them jail time, when they come out they have that chance to reform or go back to old ways. If you kill someone maliciously, the death penalty. I realize there are the very few circumstances where the accused is actually innocent. That I dont know what to say. But, there are too many people out there robbing and killing, malesting children and elders and they need stricter punishment. Hell yes the jails are filled. It seems people go to jail for a couple years, get probation, break laws again (usually the same law as the first time), go back to jail for a few more years, repeat over again. Hello!!! If you didn't learn the first time you will not learn the second, third, or fourth time either. Figure something else out! Dont keep stock piling in the jails! IT'S NOT WORKING! The whole wefare deal. I completely understand sometimes things work out for the bad. Companies close, downsize, people get hurt. Those people should get help. These people that keep having babies and raise them or afford them should be fixed! I don't go to work to pay for your food, house, clothing, kids. I have my own bills to pay. If you can't afford to work because daycare cost too much then don't have soo many kids. It kills me too see these families where the adults dont work but they have expensive cell phones, name brand clothing and nice cars. Sorry my husband and I work for our things. If you have all that stuff you are doing something to pay for them. It must not be a legal thing. Those people need checked out. If it's illegal drugs, guns, prostituting then punish them and find a way to make them pay. Pot, legalize it and tax the hell out of it! Welfare recievers need to have a drug test. Randomize those! We have to have drug tests to work for their welfare pay, then they should be tested to recieve it. Wow this little rant has probably gone on long enough for now. I am going to get off of here now and go take care of my child. Feed her, bath her and teach her. That is what parents need to be doing. <br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
I can see sooo many possibilities from cutting the top off a glass bottle. Although they may be short supply around here since we don't drink wine!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm about to try this out! I really hope this works for me!<br />
<br />
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~<br />
Okay, well here's the update...I have seen alot of people's results and talked to alot of people that have done this. And well It works for others. I am thinking maybe I should have started with a different bottle. Smaller maybe or round. <br />
