Mini Whinnies+ Giant Resin=A Goofy Time

Kristian BeverlyLeave a comment
Lizzie and I have been trying to meet up for a bit and today our schedules finally matched. Between classes I headed over to her house. 🙂
I loved her new donkey foal, 

 and her always pretty Zebra mare.

New custom Lizzie recently finished.

For performance, I like to use similar sized models so that tack can fit a range of models. Lizzie does no such thing.
She used Peter Stone Ponies for a period,
but recently got this guy. He’s a Gawyn resin and is on the complete opposite side of the spectrum of size. 
He’s a big boy but I love the details on him. 
The meeting turned goofy and Gawyn ended up with mini whinnies on him.
How many mini whinnies can a drafter hold? Plenty.
This was a fun meetup!

Adventure In Paper-ville

Today my Mom woke me up and excitedly said I was in the local paper. Then she told me it was for Girl Scouts. On my way to school I stopped at my nearby Sheetz and grabbed a copy!
Here’s the article clip. It’s about by Girl Scout Gold Award and what I’d done to earn it. 
The Gold Award for Girl Scouts is the highest award that a girl can obtain. There are three of them: bronze, silver, and gold. 
I earned my bronze award first,
and then Silver award. Each award had a set of criteria and were separate projects. 
I ran the Tween book club during the summer, two times a week. I’m still running it, but it’s once a month now. I love books, so trying to pass on the fun of reading was the goal of the club. We discussed the books and did a related craft to the book and overall, it was a lot of fun. The club was a mix of books, from The Outsiders to Percy Jackson to Moon Over Manifest. There was one horse focused book on the list. Misty of Chincoteague.  Today was a great day! 🙂
Cool copy I found with a rough-ish cover. It was a large paperback too. 

Vintage Day

I didn’t pay attention to the Vintage Club until this year.  I saw there was a Misty and Stormy (Coral and Reef), and I knew I had to have them. So I found a group still looking for someone to claim the Misty and Stormy pair, and the rest is history.
They came today.

I loved the vintage box they came in.

The pamphlet that came with them was just as cool. It gave a highlight of things that happened in 1961 and 1972. Breyer and real life.
I really like the ponies. I love the fact that Coral/Misty has the ‘four-eyed’ pattern.
They both have eye whites. 
And each has its own blue ribbon sticker.

Today my theater is also showing showing The Breakfast Club in honor of its 30th anniversary. Since I wasn’t alive (from my mom “You weren’t even a thought”) when it first came out, I’m seeing it tonight. 🙂
