I have been totally addicted to this series! If you haven’t guessed by my blog title, this series takes place in Camelot. It takes the angle of Merlin, and it evolves into his relationship with King Arthur and how they become best of friends through all the adventures that come their way. Merlin just happens to save King Arthur’s life in many adventures without taking any credit for himself.
I decided to try to make some birthday cards, so I looked to see what books I could find at the Library. I found a lot of them, but the one I liked the best was Cardmaker’s Sketch Book: Birthday Celebrations. If you would like to try making some, this book is very easy to use.
I have heard so many of my friends rave about the BBC Series Downton Abbey. I have to admit that I had a really hard time even giving this series a chance. Once I finally did, I’ve been hooked ever since! This series goes between the proper lives of the family that live in the estate called Downton Abbey, and the lives of the service help that live in the lower levels.
Learning colors is fun when you read One Rainy Day by Tammi Salzano. Duck wears red boots, carries an orange umbrella, and jumps in blue puddles. He meets worms, frogs, and bugs, and sails a boat while playing in the rain. In the end, he finds a colorful rainbow.
One of my favorite television shows is Ghost Hunters, which airs on the Sci-Fi Channel. It is a series about The Atlantic Paranormal Society (TAPS), a group that investigates paranormal activity in various locations around the United States. Jason Hawes and Grant Wilson are the founders of TAPS.
I’ve recently began sewing again. My first attempt in middle school home-economics was not very successful. This time I began small to build my confidence. A book that’s really helped is Sewing Techniques: The Complete Step-by-Step Handbook by Dorothy Wood.
Before going on vacation, I checked out the book, The Insider’s Guide to South Dakota’s Black Hills and Badlands. I was able to plan our entire adventure using this invaluable resource written by T.D. Griffith and Nyla D. Griffith. This guide gave me insight into the best places in the area for lodging, dining, shopping, and recreation.
On January 19, 2013, one of the greatest hitters of all times passed away. Stan Musial was one of the best Cardinal players in the history of baseball. He had 475 home runs, including a record 5 in a double header. Of all his 3,630 career hits, 1,815 came at home and 1,815 were on the road.
He was a man of a different era, and his records are simply amazing. Another incredible statistic, he was married 71 years to his wife, Lillian. The couple resided in the St. Louis area, where he remained a beloved figure.
