That's it.... I'm addicted






Last winter I started making beanies... lot's of them. I have been crocheting since I knew how to walk but I just recently mastered the beanie. I would guess that I made thirty or so last winter and gave most of them away. I told myself I was going to retire for the summer for two reasons, I feel myself getting carpal tunnel, the other reason is that working with yarn in the heat of summer makes me cranky. Mckay and I started playing with the idea of having a booth at the Gardners Market up in Logan and ever since I haven't stopped crocheting!! It's a disease. I have already been to Hobby Lobby and Micheals twice today. I had my first sale today to my dearest Natalie. She was the best first customer. Please excuse these ridiculous photos of myself. I was laughing in all of them because I hate taking them of myself but my Mom and Grandma need to see their teaching skills pay off. If any of you want to come visit me at the market please do. There is zero obligation to buy, I just don't want to be lonely. I will hopefully be starting an etsy site soon if anyone wants one.

The Ranch equals...


Four wheeling Any hour of the day we wanted.

Horseshoes.

A free border collie. A must have for a ranch.

Letting our bodies recover.

Late night fires on the ridge.

A much needed band photo. ...for our future band of course.

Syrup on marshmallows.


Our own box car child. Yes, that is Hayley over there.












A little too much energy. We'll blame it on the syrup.




An attempt at the Manti Pageant.




4-wheeling through Jurassic Park.



Horses in the Rain.


To sum it all up, Ranch equals awesome a.k.a., beautiful disaster.

Look at what we found...


A Sherpa chess set!


Best cotton candy. period.


Hayley and I are the best at going to local events together. Today it was Logans Summerfest. It was lovely. I saw the most beautiful wildlife photos that I have EVER seen in my life. Hayley also got her first taste of me interacting with the senior citizens, it was great.

What is it about home that makes you want it so bad? Today I drove 180 miles round trip to go home. I was cravin a good Sunday dinner and a day with the fam. I thought I would surprise them, so I did. I showed up to my mom and sister at the counter eating hot dogs! What!! Hot dogs for Sunday dinner!!! I was speechless. My mom did say "They're the beef ones Riana!" Oh boy...

Despite that the day was great. An hour and a half of youtube and twitter with Janelle (She tried to get me to get one and after 5 seconds of having one I already had skanky stalkers and porn on my thing so I decided that Twitter is the worst thing in the world), trying to recreate a dance from So You Think You Can Dance with Janelle was even better and we have a video to prove it.

The fam is wonderful. They are why I go home. I miss them lots. Hot Dogs aren't that bad I guess.

Yes... I know this is the third post today. Get over it.

Ah... Sam



I hope everyone likes Iron and Wine. They are a staple in my life, kinda like Seinfeld. I never get sick of them. Sam Beam is great, I love his is big 'ol beard and his soft spoken voice. Seeing them live was so great. This is the first music video I've seen from them. If you know of others let me know.

Good job body, You did good.


My very first race... ever. I already want another one. It's just too bad I thought the dress code was Amish attire.


Four wheeling the night before was wonderful. Hay and I were loving life. Too bad I bruised my inner thighs getting all that crazy air.

Thank you Meter Solutions



Before.

After. He said I would be all beat up afterwards but we still ended with a smile.

My dearest Schulyer let me be his partner today. I became a part of the Meter Solutions crew. We've heard one thousand stories from their job of changing meters and I had to check it out for myself. He carried all the heavy stuff, well mostly, and he did all the hard stuff but I loved every second of helping. We were quite the duo.
