Father's Day Celebration

Sorry it has been so long since I updated.

This past Thursday, we celebrated Father's Day. We had hotdogs, baked beans, and coleslaw. Nana came out also. We also had ice cream which was yummy and 1/2 the fat. haha. So you feel okay when you eat a big bowel. It was Pet ice cream and the flavor was Brownie something.

For Father's Day, we made two scrapbooks for daddy and fixed up another one. It was all of Matthew's sports (baseball and basketball) clippings from the paper and also some pictures. Daddy really liked it.

Tomorrow, we are going to go to church with Grandma and Granddaddy and then go out to eat.

Please pray for Donna's Mom (Mrs. Baker). She has gone back to the hospital. The last I heard (around 11 am)- she had woken up and was responsive. Much better report than last night.

Happy Father's Day to all the fathers.

Birthday Celebration with Dad

Today, my daddy took me out for my birthday. We went and ate at Ironstone Grill. It was delicious. Roast beef, green beans, roasted potatoes, corn nuggets. mmm. Then we went to see where the movie theater was...ok funny story. I had just passed this theater on Monday on my way back from Atlanta. I told daddy that it was "just down the road." So we kept driving and beginning to wonder. We ended up near the sign for the Nanahala Forest. Whoops! haha. I forgot to tell him that you have to get on 441 South. So we turned back around and then we found it. Sorry dad. Then we had time to spare so we went to downtown Franklin and drove around. We ate some ice cream at a place called Peppermint Patties. Didn't see Charlie Brown or Linus. haha. I had chocolate covered cherry ice cream and daddy had sugar free butter pecan. Then we went and saw where I used we used to swim for conference with H-CATS. It looks different. Then we wasted some time in Big Lots. Got two good movies for $6. Then we went and saw 17 Again with Zac Efron. It was so good.

Thank you daddy for my birthday celebration. I love you!

Sorry it's been so long

Hello everyone.

Sorry it's been so long since I updated. School's going well...almost over. Last day is May 1st and then exams the next week. Had a good Easter Break. Worked some and hung out with family. Had a good Easter. I went to church with daddy and Matthew and then we had a cookout afterwards. Nana came out. Amy had to work all day..on her birthday but she got presents at work. :)

This past Friday, I went and spent the night with grandma and granddaddy. Helped them out by cleaning their house. Had a good dinner...like it's ever bad. haha. Good mashed potatoes. I went down to the pond with granddaddy and helped feed the fish and then we watched them for a while.

Grafitti Art



For one of my 2-D projects, we created graffiti. We had to come up with a "tag"- which is basically your name. Then you had to fill up the rest of the space with whatever you wanted. Then she told us that we had to work with other people and incorporate each others ideas so it flowed throughout the canvas.

My tag is my name Amanda.
I have a cross for religion. I have WCU because that's where I am receiving my degree and because it's important to me. I have a Christmas tree because I LOVE Christmas and the holidays. I have an issue of People magazine because that is my favorite guilty pleasure. I have a flip-flop that says "RIP" on it because I usually wear flip-flops so much, that I wear them out quickly. I have a heart that says "I Love Lucy" because that is one of my favorite shows. I have a house that looks nice on one side and bad on the other because I want to restore old houses. There is red polka dots because I like polka dots.

I included my grafitti and a picture of the whole thing. Enjoy.

Update

Hello.

Sorry it's been so long on me updating my blog. Spring Break was a couple of weeks ago. I didn't really do much. Enjoyed the 7 and 1/2 inches of snow that I got on Spring Break. haha kind of ironic. Worked a couple of days at the country club.

School is going pretty well. I will be updating my blog soon with some of my art projects that I am working on. Submitted 2 of my drawings to NOMAD (the literary magazine). It will be reviewed and I will find out in April if it will be in the fall issue.

Congratulations on Matthew and the Falcons team!! Not been able to go to any but I am keeping up on the internet.

Will be updating soon.
