Awesome Lamp

This lamp was a rental from the estate sale in Ogden for the film. It got a lot of comments from the crew and was a general favorite. We think she's from the 20's ish, she has a little light and a little machine so light and fog will come up through the top of her pot. How awesome is that!

Tool Nerds

For the film I am working on I am working in the Art Department. The defining tool of the Art Department is the Leatherman. I was finally going nuts not having one of my own that I decided to buy a cheap one, turns out my Dad had a nice one that he was kind enough to let me borrow, so I didn't buy one after all. At two separate times two different guys stopped mid conversation with me to gaze at my Leatherman say to me, "that looks like a nice Leatherman, is that a Wave?". I should note at this point of my narrative that each time they were probably 3ft away from my Leatherman which was sitting on the table. I then proceeded to get a deer-in-headlights look which evolved into a "how the heck should I know" look. I consulted the print on the Leatherman to discover it is indeed a Wave. Tool nerds. Honestly, how many people have the different varieties of Leatherman memorized and can identify them (while closed) from 3 ft away. I'm more of a Leatherman is a Leatherman, is a Leatherman person. Guess I have lots to learn still, but I feel pretty cool with my hard core tool.

Easter Eggs

Our family wasn't planning on dying Easter Eggs this year, but we did after all. :)  Here are some pictures I took. I tried an experiment that I found on pinterest where you wrap the egg in a silk tie and dye it that way. It didn't turn out at all like theirs did, but it was fun. Lydia's eggs all turned out cooler than mine. The rewards of patience.
