Big Tex[as]

mom, dad, michael and i went to texas!
we were in texas from the 19th - 25th!







we were helping out with a display for the State Fair of Texas!

our friend Paul (i call him Uncle Paul)does Garden/Train Displays. so this year his company Applied Imagination did a display around 'Big Tex'!!! right in the center of the state fair!








mom, michael and i helped fix up the small houses! they didnt get too much damage, just a little ware and tare from the trip from kentucky-- so we worked with the glue guns mostly.








for our lunch breaks we went to the South Dallas Cafe-- defiantly our favorite!!! we went most every day for lunch! it was right by the fair park- we had some really good southern cookin-










here i am with 'Big Tex' before they put him up--- he is HUGE!!!










here is a pic of 'Big Tex' he stands 52 feet high!! he has real Dickies denim jeans, and a 75 gallon cowboy hat!

with our display around him, it looked like it was his little toy trains! it was really cool!!








we usually finished work about 3ish or so, and we would have time to go back and shower, take a small rest, go to dinner and some sightseeing!

here are some pics that i liked the most of our display:


ENJOY!!!

too long

it has indeed been too long since my last post---

not many things have happened--- other than mikey and i are now going to SLC for our internships instead of Chicago-

and i am terrified!!! i dont want to make any more decisions!!

i would really appreciate it if someone would make up my mind--

i am a bit upset that i wont be able to live in beautiful Chicago- but perhaps later on in life--

i am right in the middle of my "2 weeks straight" of work-- and yes, i am getting sick of it-- well, not work so much, mostly the fact that some of the gals at work seem to have gotten in the habbit of not showing up then are using the excues of.."cant find a babysitter" "i didnt know i worked" and whatnot---- leaving 2 of us to take care of all the customers, and CLEAN the whole place by our selves--- it is very frustrating--- especially when there isnt much i can do except be the one to get the extra cleaning dumped on--- its lameo-

my compy is being very slow right now, its about 3 words behind-- im getting sick of waiting for it to catch up- i am moving all my music-so its being picky and slow---


yea thats enough--
