Sexy....kind of

I just had to post this pic at some point. What a character she is. This is Trav's favorite pic of her.
She is the best!

Anyway.........

Merry after Christmas everyone! Hope you all had a wicked awesome holiday.
We went up to Duluth for the weekend - we made it there early thankyouverymuch - Everyone liked their gifts.
We got some more stuff off of our registry from my Gram, My Aunt got us a panini maker - can't wait to try that out, and we got some other good stuff - candles and clothes and whatnot. Good times. I showed Wendall to everyone and they thought that he was awesome - my Gram wanted to keep him (she collects clowns too) - but I made him for my other Granny.
Saturday (Christmas Eve) I went over to Stacy's Ma's house to visit while Trav stayed at his Sister's and played classic Nintendo. We ate and opened presents at his Sister's - They got me mittens(which I needed SO bad) and a cute little T-shirt. My favorite Mother-in-law and Bruce got me this amazing art studio - it's an easel that comes with a drawer full of watercolor, acrylic and oil paints, paint brushes and a palate. It also came with a canvas so I can get started right away! It's so cool!
They also got me a wonderful Dragon book that I love - I'm pretending that its a text book from Hogwarts because I'm such a nerd.
Trav got two Johnny cash CD's from his Sissy's (which I stole), and some money for an Ipod and a set of Dragon books - one called Eragon and one called Eldest from his Mommy and Bruce. I can't wait to read them when he's done.
That evening we went to my Aunt Sara's (my mom's sis). Finally it was time to give Wendall to my Granny. She basically wiped her ass with it.
I knew she would do that too. Nothing matters more that how much things cost to her. Maybe I shouldn't have told her that I made it - then she would have thought that I spent money on it and would have liked it more. She looked at it and monotonely said "oh that's cute" and put it right back in the box. Your welcome, Gram.
She got us a vegetarian cookbook - which is pretty cool and two photo albums.

We left Duluth on Christmas Day after a quick visit at Erin's. Maisie is getting so big! and she looks so much like Erin! I'll have take some updated pics of her and post them for your viewing pleasure.

Sunday and Monday we set up the art/media room. It is seriously the coolest thing I have.
I have wanted an art room since I was about 12 and now I finally have it and it's perfect.
I love it so much.
I decided that all the art the pictures I'm hanging up in there are going to be original art only - so I hung up my Dragon picture that Nancy made me, a picture that Trav's sis painted and picture drawn by one of our high school classmates, Jared Dodson. On the other wall I hung up this wonderful and sentimental collage that Trav's sis made for us - it has some flowers that Nancy painted and pictures that Boo boo took of our wedding, then in the middle Boo boo painted : Celebration October 14, 2005. It's so sweet and wonderful. I love it.
As soon as I get around to ordering out wedding photos - they will be hung up around the collage.

That's all for now - I've enjoyed this short week and I am looking forward to the next! I hope to post again tomorrow - if I don't - I'll talk to you next year! ( I hate when people say that)
