Exploring and Re-enacting

So, me and a friend when to the Exploratorium for the day and then just this weekend we were Civil War Re-enacting (which I didn't get a lot of pictures). I got braces on Wednesday which have been very painful and a mouthful. So I guess I should get on with the pictures. :) I will start with the Exploratorium and then move on to the Civil War. So here we go!

 Here's where we sat down to eat lunch and I had to take a picture because the of big fluffy clouds!



This guy had been working on this for I think about 30 years! It is all made out of toothpicks and he's still not done! Yikes!


 We were almost to the Ghirardelli place but we made sure we stopped to rest since it took us quite a while to get there!

 Waiting for our ice cream......

And it came! Yay!


Sorry there wasn't very many pictures of that day. :(

 I had to throw in this yummy milkshake that my mom made because it was so good!

 On the way to the re-enactment

 The clouds were amazing driving up there

 One of the pictures that I'm proud of! Even my mom said she was impressed!

 The sign on our tent

 This is where I hung out most of the two days

 Some games. Graces is the hoop and sticks and then the other one is cup and ball which is quite fun!

 Pots 

 Some cups

 Our lantern 

 Our camp

 I was playing around with different shots

And last but not least, a picture that I drew while I was there. I made it using pastels that I brought with me and I think I'm going to hang this one of the wall! 


So that is all for today, I will post again when I have more pictures! :)

Random Things

Today is just some random pictures to tide you over until I have some thing exciting coming up! :) There are pictures from Instagram and some other pictures from just different things that have been going on. I hope you enjoy!


We went to a Civil War re-enactment this last weekend and this is a panorama shot of the battlefield

The battle was delayed a bit so I took a picture of a little flower I found 

There's the union! 

One of the units came up closer to us so I got a better shot 

I was going to take more pictures of flowers but I ended up hanging out with some friends that were there so I didn't get that many except for this one

Here is a short video of them shooting

Today was a nice enough day to go outside and read! I was excited! 

Drama was so much fun! I really enjoyed working with all the friends that I made! I was really sad that they won't be continuing drama but I will hopefully find something else to start doing

We finally got to see Thor: The Dark World! My mom got it at the Redbox and I got really excited! Best mom ever!

Best holiday ever

This awesome girl came to one of my plays! I was so excited! She is the most awesome friends ever!

And finally Spring is here! Yay! Spring is one of my favorite seasons, except for the allergies.. 


Thanks for reading! I will post again soon! :)

Wedding and Play

So last week has been very busy. I had rehearsal every day for the last two weeks and then last weekend was opening night and I had two more plays after that. They have been very fun and I have enjoyed taking drama this year. But before that we went to our friends wedding. It was a very cool place that they had it at and I took lots of pictures. So here they are!

This is the church where our friends got married


As a thank you we each got a little plant


I was taking different shots of it


These were the little straws that we had. The bride put the little flags on all the straws!


We had a neat little window behind our table


Our center piece


Some lace


Just a random shot


The thank you card with the lace


I was trying to get the sun coming through the window


Our dinner. It was so good!


We filled up our glasses with Sparkling Cider for all the toasts


Just a picture of the lollipop


There was some candles in front of the fireplace and I was taking pictures of everything so I decided to take a picture of this as well.


Sparkling cider


On our way home from rehearsal me and my mom had to take a picture or two of the railroad tracks, the blooming trees and the sky. It was a beautiful day!


Another picture of the railroad tracks


This was another day that we were coming home from rehearsal


A couple days ago we have been getting lots of rain and with the clouds and the sun, we couldn't pass up this photo!

I took lots of photos because I didn't want to take just one and it didn't turn out

I have like three more that I didn't put on here but here's one more for you!


And that's all I have for today! I don't know how many pictures I will be taking this week because we have another rehearsal soon and three more performances coming up. But I will try and post again! Thanks for reading! :)
