So heres the story...
My best friend and I like blogging.  We decided that it would be cool to have a blog that we both wrote together.  So we made a blog.  The blog is very cool thanks to the idea that my bestie had.  We are writing letters to each other as the blog posts.  We wrote the first blog post together but when I am talking it is normal and when she is talking it is italics.  If you want to view it, send your email to me (pinkyandme@live.com) and we may let you see it.

So far I have learned to play the ukulele, the guitar, the piano.  It is so fun to play music especially when you get to the point when you can play so many songs.  I have made a song book for myself and I put my own music in it for ukulele, guitar, vocal, and, piano.  I love playing songs out of it.

I love my music

I have also gotten into art.  It started at school...my teacher always does art contests.  The subject was animals.  I had an idea to do Squirt from Finding Nemo and this is what I came up with...

My first drawing entered into a contest

I was surprised when she was announcing the first place winner that it was me.  Ever since then I have loved to draw.

Lately I have loved doing photography.  I love doing little photo shoots with my friends.  Sometimes to make the picture look good I tilt the camera a little and it makes the picture look awesome!  On some editing websites let you change the filter and make it look really good that way.

 I always make sure I have an outfit that matches the weather.  If it is cold outside I wear a coat and jeans.  If it is warm I wear a short sleeved shirt and shorts or something like that.  I curl my hair, put it into a pony or a bun, or leave it down, it just matters on what the weather is like and where I'm taking the pictures.  I've seen people do their photos at a cemetery, a train track, a park, a pretty place in there neighborhood, even their front or back yard, and sometimes even ugly places like dead plants or vines could be a good place.

I love photography!!  If you want to give photography a try, do it!  Photography is really fun and anyone can do it!  You don't even need a good camera or a pretty background.  I like to edit my pictures and sometimes put them into a collage.  To go to the websites that I use for editing, click here and here.

Since it's November, here is a list of things I'm thankful for...

• Those good books that you can't put down
• The days where everyone in the family is together and everyone is happy
• When you just can't stop laughing
• Bike rides with friends
• Snuggling with family and watching a movie
• Pictures of your self that you accidentally took that you can't stop laughing at
• When your walking around and someone you don't even know stops to say hi
• An overwhelming feeling of joy 
• Swimming in warm, warm water 
• Fall leaves and colors
• Cold days so you can snuggle up and read a good book

That's not much but there is way more!I hope especially this month everyone can stop thinking about their self as much and think of all the thing we are thankful for! Maybe you can even write a list. Always remember...
