I'm waking up early in the summer to draw seed pods.
What?
It's going from historical to downright ridiculous.
But holy moly, it's fun.
I'm learning so much and stretching myself a ton.
Add a little color...
Do you think these are considered pods if they aren't dried out and brown?
They showed up when I googled Images for seed pods.
Maybe I do like pods after all.
We are in full summer mode.
Brenna is helping.
She stays up later, I stay up later.
She sleeps in (for the first time in her life!), I get up to draw seed pods.
this pool party started during the day....
We have done a little shopping.
LITTLE.
Brenna is not a big shopper.
She has told me more than once that she would rather shop for ice cream.
so wish I could wear hats like my girls!
Starbucks is a must in the summer.
But I do believe the Baristas need a little help.
How would one get "Berlin" from Lynn?
Really. Let's try it.
"What's your name?"
"Lynn."
scribble, scribble.
BERlin.
That's what I thought.
at least the coffee was made correctly.
AND......
drum roll, please.
T-MINUS EIGHT DAYS UNTIL JUSTIN BIEBER.
This girl has stuck to the deal.
SIX months of making good food choices and getting exercise in five days a week equals tickets to go see Justin in concert.
I'm so excited! No, really, I am.
It should be a ton of fun!
Brenna has her outfit all picked out.
Should I wear a J.B. t-shirt too?
Ha. Just joking.
It's now 11:00 p.m.
Seed pods will be calling my name in eight hours and I'm having trouble stringing sentences together so for your benefit and mine, I'll sign off for now.
Have a super weekend!
I loved hearing what you're doing this summer, "Berlin".. tee,hee! Musta been on somethin'(perhaps too much caffeine???) to hear that from your saying "Lynn". Go figure! I do hope you take photos of new self before heading out to see Justin. I bet you look fantastic, girl! Rock it on out... make Brenna proud!!

Your artwork is really lovely! I'm with Brenna...I've had ice cream the last two days...
ReplyDeleteA pod is a pod is a pod is a pod is a pod, Berlin. Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteLoving your seed pods. I can't draw a thing when I first wake up. Maybe after a couple of cups of java.. I had to laugh when I saw the name Berlin on the side of the cup. Too funny!!
ReplyDeleteHugs~
Berlin? Haha!! too funny! I love your drawing and the colors you used.
ReplyDeleteI just think Brenna's photo is adorable! And I like her thinking ;)
