Making Creations

Welcome and come along on Ian and Sashi's Art Walk. The first picture you see on this tour is a piece called Balloon Art. Sashi masterfully pasted feathers all over her beloved balloon...making a wonderful design.




The next work of art is by Ian The Great. Ian states this is called Fighter Guy.




This next piece is also done by Ian The Great. He has told us that this is called In Flight. You can see that it is very well done...look at all the detail.




Our next creation was done by Sashi. Sashi calls this Hospital Guy. As you can see in this picture, there are two guys carrying a man with his medicine, following close behind.




This other piece is by Sashi and it is called Hospital. This is a well done building with everything a sick patient would need....look at the computer!




If you walk this way we will see a picture a creation Ian the Great made...called Huge Bionicle. I think this is magnificent! It is awe inspiring that such great things can be accomplished within ones bedroom. Ian states anyone can do art.





Sashi made a wonderful car. She calls this Movement. I can feel it... can you?




Ian The Great made this piece called Space Station. I can see all the hard work that went into this piece. I am certain that he is proud of his achievements.




Last on our wonderful tour is an Island made by Sashi....named Paridise. What a wonderful tranquil place. I can just feel the breeze coming off the ocean. What talent she has.




I hope you enjoyed our tour. I know Ian and Sashi will be happy you came and looked.
Bye now.

Sleeping Beauties

Phantom Man: Mia, you gotta come and see this!
Mia: What?!

We crept down the hall and peeked into my bedroom and this is what we saw...




Phantom Man: Isn't she cute...awww...take a picture.
Mia: *laughing* Ok!

Sleeping Beauty Sashi was so sacked out she didn't even notice the flash on our camera. I sneaked down the hall to see how Ian was doing....



Mia: Awwww...so sweet.
Mia: Ooops the safety strap hit him in the face!



Mia: Crap, I woke him up!
Ian: Mom *groaning* what are you doing?
Ian: What time is it?
Mia: Shhhh, Ian go back to bed *giggling* I am sorry.

Crazy Life and New Positions

Do you ever feel like your life is chaotic and that you are slowly losing control? I have been slowly losing my mind since last Thursday. Why Thursday you might ask? Well, school is out. Children have been running in and out of my house constantly, schedules have been changed, it is light outside until insane hours of the night and my children seem to be hopped up on candy 24 hours a day. One night as I was sitting on my couch I looked up and saw my bookshelf. Books were leaning to one side, some are scattered about in big heaps and there seem to be pencils jammed into corners where they do not belong. Hey! This is what my life feels like right now!! I am my bookshelf....who would have thought? I feel scattered brained and have a thousand things to do, which never seems to have an end. I totally feel like I am leaning to one side at the end of a very long day. The pencils represent household chores....they should be done, but haven't been, so they are sticking out for all to see. I need to clean up my shelf, but how and when ...so right now, I will love it for what it is and deal.



I found sashi is a strange position the other day. She was reading upside down. I asked her a few questions:

Mom- Sashi, why are you upside down?
Sashi- I wanted to know if I could read this way.
Mom- Can you?
Sashi- Yes!
Sashi- Mom, it does give me a headache though.
Mom- Maybe you should stop then.
Sashi- No, I think I will stay this way, it is funny.
Sashi then cracks up and continues to read. I love my daughter, even if she does silly things.

My Phobia

I hate, wait no...I LOATH spiders. They are cowards that love to creep and crawl about your house, coming out at night, when they don't think we are watching. These little creatures set up camp in corners of your home, where they think they will not be seen. Oh, they think they are so cleaver, but they are not. We have a rule at our house: Outside we do not smash or kill spiders, but inside they are fair game. I do not feel joy killing these arachnids, but I do not spare them either. They are ugly, hideous, long legged creepy things, that have to die! So, when I see spiders I do not hold back SQUISH, SMASH, SMEAR, RUB, STOMP and FLUSH ...bye bye now. Awww the joys of summer.
