Painting

So this week has been really crazy.  Today was our first day of school this week and we are expected to get more snow tonight.  To pass the time, Corey and I are making paintings!  Mine is of a cutey owl and his is of a bat.  Here is mine so far, but I have lots left to do!  Corey's isn't anywhere near done so more photos will come soon!

Documentation: A Resolution [UPDATE: FAILED :(]

I've decided to try and eat healthier this year. [as usual]  However, I also want to cook more, so in an effort to satisfy my conscience I have decided to hold myself accountable.  I am going to start documenting most of my meals. [I have specialk for breakfast every day so that is pretty boring].  I think dinner is the best way to begin my healthier resolution.  I'm not trying to lose weight or anything, I just want to eat more veggies and feel better!  So here goes...
