WE ARE THE FRAMPTONS

WE ARE THE FRAMPTONS

No time for Losers cause

WE ARE THE FRAMPTONS

of the world.

This is a typical Campfire at Frampton Family reunions.

Queen is a typical band to sing for campfire songs.

Changing lyrics to boast about ourselves is a typical thing to do around the campfire.

We are typically great air guitarists.

Typically we try to be louder than the campfire next to us.

We are pretty competitive...typically.

Also, we typically sing in twenty different keys (most of the family is not so musically inclined).

But, we are pretty good dancers. The shimmy is a typical move to see around the campfire.

This is a typical conversation around the campfire:

Uncles
"We are the Framptons?! Why haven't we thought of that all these years? We are being taken over by the younger generation!"

Grandma
"You know, when I was young we used to dance Cheek to Cheek. That's just how it was done! And we sang 'Row row row your boat' around the campfire" (breaks into song)

Dad
"We should be the VanFrahmptun Family. Singing sensation! Ich ist bgeveth glabenhos bin venhoaseh!"

Me
"Gesundhiet"

Then we would start singing Jukebox Hero.

Or do our own versions of the guitar solo in Hotel California.

Or maybe we would sacrifice the 50 year old BYU P.E. shorts Grandma brought as we sang tribal music and shimmied around the fire.

Reunions are the best.

Watching home videos and EVERY SINGLE OUTFIT Grandma sees she shouts "I still have that!" Even the ones thirty years ago. She saves everything.

Kayak wars. Four wheeling rides. Beautiful sunsets. Lunes on the Lake. Never ending noise and laughter.

I love my family.

We are the Framptons.

My Summer Tradition Commences

I am a die hard Harry Potter fan. Don't believe me? Check this out.

Since the 2nd grade, I've read the entire series every summer.

No joke.

Today, I start reading the series again!

I'm mixing it up a tad and reading the British versions of the first. Harry Potter and The Philosophers Stone.

Since I lived in Malaysia when I first read the books, the British versions were the ones I first fell in love with. Mostly they are the exact same except random words spelled differently like "colour" and "favourite"(I failed my first spelling test in Malaysia which happened to include those words. Come on! It was devastating)

Anywho. 

I can't wait to begin!

This year in art my teacher gave us this crazy assignment to do a realism picture of someone and progressively become more abstract. 

Guess who?!

Professor Trelawney. Mmmmm. You'd be surprised how difficult it is to watercolor somebody's face remotely realistically. Don't judge too harsh. Also, I despised the abstract part. But I guess it's pretty cool as a whole 5-some-progression-thing.

Enjoy.

I'm off to read!
