First day at OR

The first day of the show was really fun especially because we were all decked out in boy scout gear! We got a lot of attention as we walked around the show looking for sweet giveaways. We stopped at a booth that was announcing a raffle for a trip to Ecuador! Melissa and I submitted our names and were waiting at the front of the crowd for the raffle (while also getting free t shirts) when the announcer suspensefully ( <-oops not a word ) called my name!! We were so excited as was the photographer who was at the front capturing everything! haha. It was a good way to start the show and now I have 9 day trip to Ecuador for 2 on my list of things to do : )!! Anyway check out the pictures of the booth in action and the acorn toss game. It was a fun way to keep us entertained.

Utah

All packed up for Utah
There was a lot of interesting things going on in the desert while we were flying. Utah is hot but not humid which is nice. I'm actually sitting outside under a tree in the grass outside the convention center wearing a dress, something I've been missing all summer, heat! We have everything set up and tomorrow is the first day of the show! I'll be learning how to sell and I'll have pictures of the booth in action tomorrow. For now here are some random shots from our day chilling around Salt Lake City.









The clouds and color over the mountains last night was amazing, we were mesmerized : )

bleached my $9 keds to turn them from a ugly orange fushia color to nice pastels : )

Food, fun and work

Here are some photos from the last 2 weeks,

It's been a cold cold summer, fog rolling in every night





kale chips

Evan was here for the weekend and I realized I had never been to the Palace of fine arts, its so cool! We went to the exploratorium right by there as well and played with all the science experiments and fun toys there.

Plants and food

Had a pretty relaxing weekend although the sun has still not come out from hiding : ( Webber kitty misses the sun too... But I'm glad the eggplant plant has no problem with the gloom! Check out that awesome looking flower that just bloomed! I'm so excited!! and the tomato plants are gaining height too. All in all this weekend it seems all I did was make some tasty food, did some crafts, slept in (a lot) and visited Oakland for good times at a birthday party. Just waiting for summer to maybe come around.
