Narnia- Spare'Oom

I am a fan of Narnia- I grew up watching the original BBC versions and fell in LOVE with the new Disney versions! You find Narnia when you least expect it- who knows you might find it in your own 'spare 'oom'!


Thanks for stopping by! Have a great week!

Pioneer Day-Remember

I am LDS and each July we celebrate Pioneer Day- a day celebrating when the first Mormon Pioneers traveled west and entered the Great Salt Lake Valley. In Utah, July 24 is consider a state holiday! Living in Wyoming we just muddle through with a small celebration. A few years ago I had the AMAZING opportunity to partake in a PBS documentary filmed about the Handcart Pioneers of the Martin and Willie Handcart companies who were stranded in an early snow storm in the middle of Wyoming! It was a dream come true for me to be in a film and a wonderful experience to catch a glimpse of what the pioneers endured. I wanted to always REMEMBER the sacrifice the pioneers made for their religious freedoms but also to REMEMBER the day my dream came true. 

This silhouette is actually taken from an image of me in the film!! Exciting!! I am in the front pulling the handcart. It was cold (-60 with wind chill) the January of 2006 when we filmed in 4 ft snow drifts. When I pulled the cart to the edge of the hill and saw NOTHING in either direction I was overcome with a feeling of helplessness. How did they manage to survive such treacherous conditions?! Many did die but many also survived and were rescued by a group sent their way from Salt Lake. I gained a new appreciation for the men and women who traveled across the plains! Thousands of immigrants traveled west during the 1850's and 1860's using wagons and handcarts before the railroad was completed. 

If you have stuck with me this far- here we are- I made a wood wall hanging with this file and it hangs in my hallway!

Okay so I couldn't resist making another Sherlock file! Isn't it just the cutest? Every Sherlock fan has to have a special place in their heart for the legendary 221 B Baker Street! No matter what version you prefer ;)

Personally my favorites are the BBC series and RDJ films- ahhhh Benedict and Robert.... anyway back to the file!

I am SHER LOCKED

I am a big fan of BBC's Sherlock! It took me a while to actually WATCH the show but once I did- AHHHH!! I was going crazy waiting for kids to go to sleep so I could watch another episode! They are amazingly clever and witty and I admit I love good British acting! Anyway....one of my favorite episodes is called 'The Woman' and she is the perfect match to Sherlocks pride. She may be the only person alive who can outwit him! So... I just had to make a file of her endearing password! I think I might even put it on my phone!!
