Hey, guys! 
Hope y'all are having a relaxing Saturday!
or perhaps you're doing some DIY! In that case, I hope whatever you've worked on comes out nicely :)

How was everyone's 4th? Do anything fun? I wanna know! leave comments...please? :{D

My family gets to celebrate the 4th of July in a special way because it's my Grandma Blanchard's birthday! Mostly every year, we've had a big party at my aunt's house and we have a cookout and swim endlessly in her big in-ground pool :)

(the following pictures were all taken by my sister or Nick)


Grandma, the birthday girl, Carrie, Me, Elise, and Sarah

 

Man, the pool was so refreshing! I went in way more than once, and Elise loves the pool :)


Me, Grandma, and Laura


My grandma LOVES cows, so my cousin, Sarah, on the right, drew this picture and framed it as a present for grandma :) Isn't it awesome!? She's so talented! Good job Sarah! :)


We always take a cousins picture with grandma every year, but now that some of us have "special friends" ;), we decided to include them too! We're that nice! haha

l to r: Remi (Sarah's boyfriend), Sarah (don't worry she has a swimsuit on underneath that towel! haha), Carrie, Mike (Carrie's boyfriend), Grandma, Dave, Elise, Laura, Nick, Sarah, and Me. All that's missing is Mike! But not for long! He'll be home in 9 days! We're in the single digits now folks! :D


My Grandparents. Love you both! <3

Alright....Who has seen The Amazing Spider-man???? Anyone? If  you haven't, you must! It's a great rehashing from the 3 older Spider-man movies. 
To be honest, I think I like Andrew Garfield better as Spider-man :) and if you've seen any interviews with him and heard his adorable British accent, then I'm sure you dig this dude just as much as I do! I liked Toby Macguire as Spider-man, but not so much as Peter Parker. I didn't think he looked nerdy enough. I like Andrew Garfield in both roles. He has the perfect amount of nerdy to him, and when he puts the glasses on, it's absolutely nerd-ific! hehe...and even when he's dressed up as Spider-man, he still goofs off like a nerd, but he also gets very tough when he has to be or when he's forced to be.
I, like my friend Chelsea over at How I Dwell Now, have such a girl crush on Emma Stone! haha It's not like I'd stalk her, but it's just that she has great style, great personality, and every movie I've seen her in I've loved! First one I saw her in was Easy A, and that was of course, when I first liked her. I like her so much better as Gwen Stacy then Bryce Dallas Howard (even though I do like her to). She makes Gwen into more of a complex character than the Gwen in the older movie who was more a damsel in distress/ditzy character. Emma Stone makes her strong, funny, deep, and emotional, and I just loved the scenes with Gwen and Peter. :) 
But, anyway, enough of my gushing...point is, it's a great movie, perfect for guys and girls, and I think you should go see it soon...like, really soon. :p


This was one of my favorite scenes with them :) 


Okay, folks, I guess that's it for today. 
Have a great weekend!
