WyLAND...

Oh right if you want to see some of his stuff... you can go to Wyland.com or look his paintings up on yahoo, or google or whatever. He does "whaling walls" they can be found in "12 countries over 4 continents. He is also an environmental artist who is trying to raise awareness of the need to preserve and protect the world's waterways, oceans, and marine life." Anyways he is incredible... he should be looked up :]

Weekend...

Alright so Friday night my grandma was in town, so my family hung out with her, and I ended up falling asleep at like 8:30 it was beautiful :] And then on Saturday I woke up at 7 and got ready for the Art Expo at the Mandalay Bay. My grandma, little sister, and I all went early. And then Mara and I got to paint on this Mural with this famous painter WyLAND. He was the official painter for the U.S. Olympics and painted a mural in Beijing. Anyways he totally commented on the Idol fish I was painting, and I was very excited, because he was like hey, bam, Dolphin. It was incredible. And then we got like 5 free tickets, 3 of which were from Alexis St. John, whose art just got bought by target, so it's going to be all over target things. She was so nice. Anyways the Expo was so large, and I was the only one who went through the whole place and saw every painting. Also my aunt Lisa and her fiance Wade Wade came for a little bit, and my Mom came too. Oh and also Mara and I got to paint on a Thomas Kinkade painting, we helped highlight it. Anyways it was incredible and we met so many artists, and I just want to paint all my life hahaha, oh well, it's a fun dream. And then that night my family watched What Happens in Vegas, Stays in Vegas, and we thought it was a really cute romantic comedy, and then Mara, my mom, my grandma, and I played cards, and I was the entertainment. It was fun because I just analyzed some of my friends, and told my family stories about them. And we were laughing a lot. Then on Sunday we went to church, I napped and then went to the fireside it was so amazing.

All-in-All a very good weekend, full of family fun :]

Last Saturday

Last Saturday I gave blood. It was a lot of fun. At 9:45 my friend came and picked me up, and we went to the Charleston United Blood Service center, and I was supposed to have the directions and I definitly got us lost, and our appointment was at 10. We ended up getting there at 10:20. Anyways, I decided to give plasma and whole blood, and it took 30 minutes. It was a lot of fun, and I got free cookies. Also, for giving blood, I got 2 free tickets to the Adventuredome. Which I plan on using when Casey comes in town, so we can go and play, especially since I have never been there. So anyways... that is what I did last saturday. :]
