Fun In The 'Burgh

I know I complain about how hard school is, but don't think it's all work and no play! We still get a little bit of time to enjoy ourselves and the city.









We also get some time to wear ridiculous clothes...



And sharpen our artistic abilities...



So don't feel bad for me, because despite my complaining, I'm having a great time!

Kalloween 2010

Last weekend was Kalloween at Kalyumet. It was a nice, relaxing weekend with lots of family, friends, and frights!
Zion got to wear his awesome costume that he was super excited about!




For the second year in a row Andrea participated in the Scarewood Forest haunted trail.




It really wasn't too exciting of a weekend. But I'm not complaining. I just enjoyed the two days of relaxtion.

The Girl Who Played With Fire

The Girl Who Played With Fire
By Stieg Larsson


So, I finished the second book in the Millenium series awhile ago, but things have been so busy, I haven't had any time to share my thoughts on it!
Anyway, like The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo, this was an awesome book. I wish I could have had the time to finish it faster, but unfortunately my summer ended quicker than I had hoped.
But this book it definately a page turner, and its such a shame tht Stieg Larsson passed away so suddenly, because he really was a great writer. Who knows other worlds he could have created for us.
In short, everyone everywhere should read Steig Larsson's books. They are amazing and his death was a profound loss to the literary world.

Movie Star Mex

In case you don't know, Kalyumet in the campground in Clarion that my family has a seasonal spot at. This year, Kalyumet made their first commercial, and my little Mexican was one of the stars!

Click here to see her amazing portrayal of a game-playing, pizza-eating wild child.

Without a doubt, some of the finest acting I have ever seen. She deserves an Emmy or something. Such passionate pizza eating... it almost brought me to tears.
