Art Appreciation

Ben and Melissa were over at my place today replacing bike tires, cleaning chain, etc. Ready to ride - thanks Ben! While they were up at my place Ben noticed a painting I bought in Ecuador. I love the painting and couldn't remember who was the original artist. I thought it was Oswaldo Guayasamin but when I googled his name and paintings from Eduardo Kingman also came up that look very similar - almost identical. I need to do more research about their works. Here are a few of my favorite paintings from both artists. Enjoy!

This is the painting I have in my room but my painting's colors are red & orange. I love the blue, cool tone of this painting but of course it wasn't available when I bought the piece.

NBC Clears Things Up

Watch this Ellen clip...hell-a funny!!! I have been so confused this season with Lost even though we should be receiving all of the answers. I still think the show is wack-o but I am still watching it. Hmmm!

Easter & Birthday

My parents and I spent time in CO for Easter and Conference weekend. We went mountain biking, four wheeling, played outside, and did all of the Easter traditions. Dyeing eggs was a blast - I had to juggle five cups of dye and five kids around the table. Luckily we had more adults to help but at first I was all alone with the kiddos and thought we were going to drop every egg and spill every dye. In the end...egg-celent times!!!


My cousin Dionne was in town from North Dakota so we went out to dinner for our birthdays. Her birthday is in March and mine, April 7th. My favorite place to eat is Tepanyaki but Bonsai is just about the same. I love the dinner and show;) I even caught the shrimp - I rarely catch it.


Thanks family for your support and love!!!

Wheelin'

We rode the four wheelers out at Rabbit Valley on Saturday before Easter. We took all of the kids and five machines. Even Garrett (1 year old) rode on a Razor in his car seat. We went out to this point where we could see the river and a gorgeous view of the valley. The wind almost blew us off of the trail but we kept going and the ride home luckily we were going with a tail wind.
