It's A Monster Jam Birthday

Six months ago if you asked me to go to a Monster Truck Rally (Monster Jam) I would have thought you were crazy. But, when my son Scott discovered Monster Jam on the Speed Channel, we found new family entertainment that was fun to watch. You never know what's going to happen and some of the jumps and recoveries are amazing. So, when Scott's 11th birthday came around in February and we saw that Monster Jam was in town, we thought that would make a great birthday party...and it did, for kids and adults! Don't miss the Grave Digger Video at http://www.facebook.com/HeartandArt (I couldn't get it to upload here).

This Monster Mutt is the cutest...tail wagging and ears flapping while competing!

The whole family got into the action!

Still plugging along with my 52 Words project. I'm having fun playing with new techniques and materials and just seeing what happens. I got behind for a few weeks and finally caught up today. Who knew creating one page a week could be so hard. A few of the words and pages just didn't come together for me...like Appreciative and Prompt. I got behind and tried to combine them on one page...well, that just didn't work so I won't even post the results. My journaling leaves a lot to the imagination. By the time I finish the page, I forget what I wanted to write on it. I wait for something profound to strike me...but it never does. Oh well, it's a great exercise in creativity, soul searching and just plain fun...with not too much pressure.
