June on Instragram

June 1st:  Danny becoming one with nature.  We went on a drive up
Big Cottonwood Canyon.  It was lovely.
June 1st - As I said, lovely.
June 1st - Also on this day, I attended my niece's ballet recital.
It was beyond adorable.
June 5th - Elaine Bradley from the Neon Trees performed at a work
gathering of mine.  It was very cool.
June 7th - A burning bush on Parley's trail.  
June 7th - Somehow, along our walk we crossed the border.

June 7th - Little wildflowers basking in the setting sunlight along Parley's trail.  
Danny and I have wanted to walk along Parley's trail in Sugar House for
months now, so I suppose this outing could be considered a success. However,
while it had pretty views, it was also a dog trail, making it rather
disgusting.  Many dogs felt the need to relieve themselves, if you know
what I mean ,and many dog owners felt the need to turn a blind
eye and let it be.  Gross.
June 15th - For our family reunion, the kids were suppose to dress up
as their favorite super heroes.  Baby C came as a mini Clark Kent.
So much cuteness, I can barely handle it.
June 15th - We went to the Chalk Art Festival.  I found this fishing
chalk art piece rather impressive and it made me think of my dad.
June 22nd - Taking a moment to document the super moon.
June 24th - It's been a incredibly hot summer. Unfortunately, one evening
our power went out for about 5 hours, meaning no AC.  We used
our best survival skills and cooled off with some gelato, and
 went to see a movie.
June 29th - Date Afternoon!  Danny and I went out to eat
Chinese food at Cindy Lee's Cafe for lunch.  This happy little
Buddha greeted us.  We then went to the temple.  Quite a
nice afternoon.

Oh Crafty Trees, Oh Crafty Trees...

I've become a finals widow, if you will, meaning Danny is crazy busy trying to finish up the semester.  This has given me extra time to use my crafty skills to get our place Christmas ready.  My first creations were these little paper/foam trees.  I've seen a few variations online of this craft. I put my own little twist on it.  They are really easy to make, just takes some time. Here is what you need: Scrap paper Hot glue gun 1" Circle punch Foam cone (at most craft stores) Toothpicks Note:  You are going to go to the craft store to buy the little foam cone and you will see styrofoam glue and you will think to yourself that would be a good thing to buy for this project.  Don't!  I got the styrofoam glue and it didn't work at all.  Just go with your trusty glue gun, it won't let you down. I think it's pretty self-explanatory by looking at the picture.  You just punch circles out from the scrap paper.  Then hot glue th...

The End of the Road

There is a time when things fulfill their purpose and that is how I've been feeling with this blog of mine. When I started it, I needed my own little spot to share my thoughts and random stuff I found online. However, having two blogs has become excessive. It has been a good run (me and this little blog) and thanks for joining me. For now on, I will just be posting on my family blog . It's a private blog, but send me a message or a request if you would like to view it. Thanks to those who have taken the time to read my silly thoughts or look at pictures of my cute kiddo or some craft I made. It means a lot to me. Signing off, Jannifer

Hello Sunshine

  I've had the book The Artist's Way by Julia Cameron on my bookshelf for a couple of years now. It is a program that is supposed to connect you to your inner creativity. It may sound a little out there, but sometimes I try out there stuff. So after reading the first chapter, I thought, why not? Creative endeavors always feed my soul and as of late, my soul needs some feeding. Part of the program is to take yourself on a weekly artist date. Dating myself to connect to my inner creativity? Younger versions of myself may have laughed at this, but the mom version of myself is excited about the idea of time alone .  In pure defiance of the snow I have seen almost daily for months, for my first artist date, I decided to get a pedicure. I mostly was there for the foot massage, but I figured if I make my toes sandal ready, then surely the weather will take the hint and spring will start making its appearance. (I know, I know, we need the snow, we are in a drought. All the lakes a d...
