BBQ, corn pudding, the secret service, the Obamas and THE BEST DAY EVER!!

I don't know if I have ever been so happy as I was yesterday when I met Barack and Michelle Obama. I imagined how fun it would be to have every one know you and feel close to you and you could just buddy up with anyone!!

Truly, our little gang felt the love pouring out as we shared our little slice of America with our president and first lady.
I only wish I had said something intelligent, rather than blabber and interrupt their lunch.
So here is what I wish I had said, " I am so happy you cam to our little town for vacation. I think Asheville embodies the new economy and the loveliness of America. We Ashevillians are more often than not living within our means as we strive to add beautiful things to the world. We are more often than not artists and entrepreneurs. We are more often than not environmentalist and gardeners. We are more often than not, micro economic wunderkind. I want Asheville to be an example of a healthy happy America, well it already is."

The house that Daddy is still building

I went over to Chicken Hill today because I had to make final cabinetry decisions. I am so excited about my house and can't wait for every one of my lovely friends to sit in the kitchen with me, drinking espresso and reading different sections of the Wall Street Journal!

watch out chicken hill, 59 park square is ready to hang drywall.

being a mountain girl

I did have to carry a cat on my hike yesterday: cats are pretty lazy. But a much needed walk up and over brown mountain made me feel very connected. And I remembered why I love living in these mountains.

I am gonna admit it

I want to be listening to the radio and hear my own songs. I always talk this anti- famous antagonistic chatter and mostly I am right there, but sometimes I just want to hear my own songs on the radio

almost kills me

Thankfully I take this exam tomorrow and go on with my life. I am looking forward to running and jumping into clear cool water.

the obvious things delight me

today is a tough one. I am feeling limited motivation to be a school superstar and I long to be making songs. I gotta be tough and keep running and running toward the goal.

It was a good time machine

I am back to blogging folks!
You may think this means I am less busy, but alas, it does not mean that. It means that I figured out how to blog from my phone!
Here are some images from last night to help tell the story of our debauchery...featuring JT, JDubbs, and this one.

can I move in yet?

notice the shiny roof and the brand new little windows! My house is coming along
