My Art

This week we have officially started school. I'm excited to start this new year (I'm officially in high school!) One of my favorite subjects is Art and I thought I'd share the picture we had to draw....isn't it pretty?

"The Swing"

Auguste Renoir

I can't help it!

Maybe its from my distant Irish blood or maybe its just because I like it, I LOVE riverdance!




oh and I like Colin Dunne WAY better than Michael Flatley

The Caves

A few days ago we went to the "caves." The caves, for those of you who don't know, are up in the woods about a mile from my house. I had always been curious about them and when Dad said he wanted to go I was thrilled! Anyway so Dad, Uncle Joe, Jake, Bannon, Abby, Sophie and I headed up through the woods and up to the caves. Its nice up there (not including the swamp we had to cross). There are cliffs (not big compare to other cliffs I've seen but still pretty) up there covered with moss with an old rock wall running across the top. There are caves but not real ones, more like holes that a rabbit or a fox could live in. However I still like it up there and can't wait to go up again.

My New Haircut

So what do you think?

My Favorite Olympic commercial

My Space

As some of you know I have been decorating my new room. I have big yellow walls and although they look nice it is hard to find stuff to put on the walls without my room looking too old for me. I want a nice room and I've been looking for paintings that I like. I was in a stump for the longest time, when I realized that I have always liked Norman Rockwell paintings. I told mom and a few days later she surprised me with a big book that had tons of his paintings and sketches! I've been experimenting and I thought I'd share what I did!
