Another One of Those Random Posts

Some more little scenes from life in this crazy household :D

-       -        -         -         -         -       -          -        -

A couple of days ago, Dad saw Toblerone with his mouth puffed out as if he was eating something. Thinking that Toblerone was eating something he wasn't supposed to, Dad told him to spit it out. Toblerone just stared at him as if trying to say You do not want me to do this. But it didn't communicate very well with Dad, I guess, because he told Toblerone to spit it out again. So Toby obeyed. And sprayed out a mouthful of water into Dad's hand. And Dad had just finished getting ready to go to work.

So....last Sunday, we were discussing the sermon during lunch. Talking about money, the proper use of money, why we have money, and how money can become bad if you idolize it, etc. Everyone was adding in what they thought to the conversation and then Dare Devil, who had previously been very quiet, piped in "Oh, I know what dirty money is! It's when the money has dirt and mud on it, right?"

Oh yeah!  I can't forget about this! Dad got a GatorXUV550 for the younger ones, and they've been going nuts with it! In a good way :) 

Tiger Lily says to mention that it is plastic. . . 

But it still moves, and boy is it fun to watch. I think it's more fun to ride, but us two older girls can't cause we're just so slightly too big for it. 

I was actually quite surprised though at how well Dare Devil and Snow White could drive. So far, I haven't seen them crash into anything, and Snow White can do a pretty good 3 point turn. I'm still trying to learn that, and it's not easy for me at all. But she makes it look like she's done it a million times already. 


 Dare Devil is also a very good driver. The only problem is that when I was taking pictures of him while he was in motion, he kept looking at me and smiling so that I could take a nice picture. So yeah, then he wasn't looking where he was going and it was getting a little scary watching him weave in and out and around and about. The fact that there's a four year old driving a two year around in a Gator (mini though it be) is scary enough for me!

I've been extracting DNA from bananas, jellies, and even Ritz crackers. Okay, so the crackers didn't do anything but become really mushy and soft and yucky looking, but the banana gave a lot of DNA, and the jam was so-so. It made really nice pictures too! :)

Last Saturday, Tiger Lily and I helped out at the PCC banquet with lots of friends from our youth group at church. It was lots of fun serving to others with one another! :)

Tiger Lily, two of our best friends, and I were assigned on coat check. That meant we had to take all 643 guests' coats, hang them up, and MOST importantly. . . don't lose them!!! Then after the banquet was over, we had to give the coats back. Duh :P

Anyway, the system for keeping all the coats was confusing at first, but with some tweaking, we all managed to come up with something that would work. And guess what? It did! :)

Some people preferred to keep their coats on, or bring it in with them to the banquet hall, but I'd say we ended up taking around 550+ coats. 
Up with all. those. coats! :) 

At first, it was very stressful running around, trying not to lose both tickets and coats, but thankfully it came together and we all managed to work in a nice, somewhat orderly fashion :) Thanks also to some other friends who came to help us :D
There was a closet on the right of this picture, as well as another rack and closet
on the other side of the hall. 

I wonder what we're looking at? 

Oh, and I just had to add this picture of the chandelier. When we first got into the
hall, we were all like "whoaaa....this place is amazing!!" It was so beautiful
and breathtaking. There was this massive sparkling chandelier in the
very middle of the hall, with two smaller ones on either side. This picture is not
exactly how I wanted to show it, but I didn't have time to circle it and snap thousands of pictures of it
like I usually do. Coat check, remember? ;) 

Hard at work. . . I think. Or else we're playing Hangman ;)

Me and our two fellow coat check-ers :) Thanks to Tiger Lily for taking the photo! :) 

Ahhh yes! And the stairs!! On either side of the hall were these absolutely magnificent stairways. They were so pretty!
So once there was a break in the crowd and no one seemed to be wanting their coats, I got Tiger Lily and these two pretty fellow coat check-ers to run up the stairs and let me take a picture. :)

Tiger Lily was (actually, she is right this instant while I'm typing :P) looking for a song to do for a Studio Assignment, (that's for the vocal course that she is taking that I may or may not have forced her to take. . . ) and she thought of doing the Dragon Theme song. Where No One Goes. Have you heard it before? It's a really fun and nice song. Anyway, she was looking up the lyrics and she realized that the chorus actually goes:
We go where no one goes
We slow for no one 
Get out of our way!
Once she read that, she was like "WHAATT??? That's so rude!" Then she showed it to me and I heard it and I was wondering how did we not hear that before? It's so weird! But yeah. . . she won't be singing that for her Studio assignment! :)

Tinker Bell!


Here's a sneak peak into a photo shoot that Tiger Lily, Snow White, and I did together. As you can tell, lots of Gimping going on! :)

Excuse the bare feet...we forgot to put the shoes on, and painting them on GIMP makes it look very clumpy :P

Day #151 - #157

Tuesday, July 28: Freshly Baked Bread

Wednesday, July 29: Artistic Endeavours 

Thursday, July 30: Minions 
The story behind how we acquired this minions is actually kinda funny :P We
had gone to McDonald's and found out that they were giving out minions with
the kid's happy meal. So, you should all probably know that we aren't the type
of family that buy happy meals. But Mom was in her .....crazy mood and she decided
to get them. Unfortunately, there was only one type of minion there. BUT, we still
had to go to the pool store, so Mom stopped at every McDonald's we passed by
so that Tiger Lily and I could get different types of minions. Do you know how weird it
is to go in and just ask for a minion? The lady at the first McDonald's was nice and didn't seem
too surprised, but at the second one...oh dear! it was just too funny! The lady kept asking, "You only
want minions?" And then after I said yes, she turned to the lady behind her who was waiting to receive
our order and shrugging her shoulders, said "She only wants minions!!" :P 

Friday, July 31: Go-Karting! 


Saturday, August 1: Mini Ice Cream

Sunday, August 2: Playing Risk


Monday, August 3: Studio Time! 
This picture is actually a screen shot from a video that I took of Snow White.
But, I used the camera, so it counts, right? :)
We were recording a mini music video so that Tiger Lily could learn the basics
to making a music video.

Our Music Video! :D

I think I may have mentioned once that I was working on a music video with Snow White. Well, we're both glad to announce that...it's finally finished!!!

It took a lot of hard work, and we're both very glad that it's all done. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do! :)

Day #101 and #102: Princess(es)

In this photo, Tiger Lily had dressed up this pretty princess
in a beautiful light green and rose pink dress and then done Snow White's hair in a
princess up-do. Maybe if you ask Tiger Lily, she'll do a post
with more of these pictures.... 

I snapped a quick shot of Snow White right after we
finished filming a snippet for a music video we're trying to make.
She was just about to change to go swimming, that's why she's
carrying her clothes in her arm :)

Day #100!!!

100? Really, I've reached 100 days?!? No way! :D 

I couldn't choose which picture to use, so I decided to use both. 

I hope you like them! :)

The Princess Diaries

Have you ever seen the movie Princess Diaries? I won't tell you the whole of it, but it's basically about a girl named Mia Thermopolis who finds out that she is the princess of Genovia. One of our favourite scenes is where Mia is "transformed". So last weekend,Tiger Lily, Snow White and I tried filming the scene. Or anyway, doing a small trailer on it. Here's a picture of the before and after pictures of "Mia". Of course, Tiger Lily was our talented costume designer! :D
