Wally, the trophy and face painting




In 1918 the Great Bambino kicked a piano into WIllis pond.
Well, Johnny Damon swung a bat
Grand Slam
That was that
an 86 year curse is gone

2 weekends ago my brother invited us to join him for NorthEastern's Fenway Day. They had the World Series Trophy, Wally the Green Monster, Face painitng (for Ellie), balloon animals, live music and tons more!

We had an awesome time just walking around the park. We met the Rally monkey and of course Wally! Who Ellie was obsessed with.

Here's a few pics of us during the day.

Let's get started!


It's Monday and I just finished my egg salad sandwich. What a better time to kick off my Blog than with a full belly!
I'm looking forward to posting on here. There will be some well thought out ideas and posts and then their will be those that are not... OVerall there will be type-o's and horrible grammar. Enjoy! haha

I've been inspired by a fellow artist to post painting's in progress and I plan to do that here. As a kid I asways learned more from a magazine article and how-to's when I got to see the stages of the painting. It'll give me an extra reason to start and finish paitning's! I have a personal goal this year to not only start painting but to do a certain number of them. Let's see how it goes. 6 months into the new year and I haven't picked up a brush.

Father's Day is coming and I'm looking forward to that. Johanna has Ellie draw me a piece of art every year. It gets framed and goes next to the piece she did the year before. Hopefully she'll do it for a long time and we'll create a gallery of her work in the house or in a future studio.

Thanks for swing'in bye.
