Finished!

I just finished reading a 418 page autobiography. Talk about 'whoa'. As much as I hate to say this, because I love books, but bios and auto bios are just tough reading. So guess what's next? A biography. This one is called "Georgiana, Duchess of Devonshire". The movie "The Duchess" is based on the book. I've been meaning to read it for some time now, so wish me luck!

This is me.

California Vacation!

My family and I went to California (LA) for a few days. It was so great and we all had a wonderful time. We met up with Bryon, Michelle and Josh for a baseball game and the beach. Such fun!

Here we are at Disneyland








The best ride!




Hollywood






Audrey Hepburn's star!






Baseball game- go Giants!






The best part was the beach. Oh how I loved it. It was Jenna's first time by the way- kind of sad, I know :) But we all enjoyed it.

Famous people sent me an autograph- or rather, an email!

Yes, DIY bloggers are considered famous in my book. John and Sherry who run this blog:

http://www.younghouselove.com/ are awesome! Check it out.


Their blog is my favorite computer-related activity each day. Anyways, I sent them an email and they responded! I know it sounds cheesy but I feel like I've gotten an autograph in person or something. Thanks John and Sherry! My favorite famous bloggers!


Isnt she pretty?

My favorite dessert? Books, I think...

I decided to add a little something to this blog (that needs much more attention from its author). I do love to read and so decided to add a spot for my current reading book. My grandma would be pleased- I hope - to hear that I haven't read a science fiction book for quite some time now :).

Anyways, I am nearing the end of this great book called "Me: Stories of My Life" written by the (gorgeous) Katherine Hepburn herself. It is really just like reading someone's journal or listening to endless stories, and who doesn't enjoy listening to stories? She is so witty and over-bearing it's funny. There are a number of home pictures throughout the book that make it that much more interesting. To say the least, she's my kind of woman- no make up and can't tell a story without remembering another one...

Polka Dot House

I found this on another blog and thought it was kind of cool, in a "way out there" sort of way. It was featured in July 1951 Life Magazine.
