Fall Falls




Today after lunch my mother, brother, and I went on a little adventure into cemeteries and to parks to pick up chestnuts. It was really interesting to see the different graves and headstones. i really liked the ones that Ives and mos that has started on the stone. it made me think that even though we have stones to remember use nature still tries to take over. Like we came from the grown and we shall return to it. our last cemetery stop was a old small town one. The first time that i went to it was night and i was sort of really scared. Well today today was AWESOME!! i was walking behind my mom and i looked down and found a dollar! WOOHOO! But of course my mother was mad she was like no that's mine! i dont think im going to spend it i wanna keep it forever. oh funny when i got in the car my mom told my that the money is bad luck...ohh she is so cute. She is just sad she didn't see the money.
On the ride my mother has wanted wheat for the longest time, just so that she can look at it :) we stopped by and cut some on the side of the road. It was really cool to pick up chestnuts they are so soft. It was cook to see a squirrel in action. Today was super fun!

Darn homework! well at least i got some sewing done to keep me from going nuts in the week.

first day of school!!








Today is my first day at the Walla Walla University which is pretty exciting. yesterday afternoon i had my whole family drop me off at the dorm rooms just so it can feel like i am really moving. I took my first polaroid picture i with my camera so that was really cool. my first class is at 11 am so i really have a lot of time on my hand till then. All i can think of right now is how it will feel when i go to italy and i am REallY away from home. I know it will be a good adventure but it will be a really sad see you soon.
My roommate and i decided to have our beds in bunks to save space and i like sleeping on top. Good thing that last night i didn't fall off the edge hahaha. BUT i did get a bug bite which is not even cool.
I hope to get some pictures uploaded soon but i haven't had the time which is really sad. Pretty soon i need to make something or i will go crazy i am sad that my sewing machine had to stay at home.
well i guess i should start walking to my first class so i can be early today is going to be a monday for sure i get done with all my classes at 9. well have a good day :)

OH Winter Please COme SOOn



So this whole week i have been slowing moving out of my room and not even a mile away to the dorms of walla walla University where i will be attending. i am excited about decorating my new room while holiday decor, but that is a another post. today i woke up early...like 7am and hit the snooze about 5 times. I was determened to be in the first 50 customers to get into Jo-Ann fabrics. They gave 5$ gift cards and a free tote for the special ones. I was about the 9th one which was good. I got some knits and some hemp string. i am sure that the total was about 20 but with all the coupons that i use it turned out to be like 5 so i am happy! Last night i was jumping from blog to blog and found on Garance dore this picture of a scarf hoodie that i said "I COULD MAKE THAT!!" with that thought i got to sewing and came out super fun. Really this is so easy to make and i love it cause i cant wait to use it. I believe that this is the best thing i have sewed in a long time i am so happy well goodnight tomorrow is goin to be a long day :S
