May. 12, 2008 - A Time To Cry and A Time To Laugh

Hey everyone,

    In the Bible God said that there is a time to cry and a time to laugh.  Well, this is a time to cry.  Please pray for this family as they are grieving at the loss of a father/husband.  Not much can comfort people in times like these but we can at least pray for them.  So, please join me in prayer for this family through this extremely hard time.  Thank you SO much and God bless you.

Love,
Hannah

May. 9, 2008 - A Plank In My Eye

Hey everyone,

   Talk about worrying about a speck in some else's while you have a plank in your own.  I was going around reading peoples blogs and thinking "Wow, they haven't written in a while" and then I remember that I haven't written in forever.  (I mean that figuratively)  So, I figured I would go ahead and write an entry, especially  since I have something to write about.  Anyway,  on Wednesday Gabe took me to see Iron Man with him and his friend Jordan.  It was such a cool movie.  Later that afternoon dad took me and Holly to the library and I drove, on country roads.  Which was kind of scary.  Wednesday night at youth group we made signs for the carnival, which was pretty fun.  To night mom, Holly and I have a jewelry party to go to at a friend's house from our home school group, I'm so excited.  Being a teenage girl I like jewelry!!!  Today I finished a book I have been reading for six months.  Pretty pathetic, I know.  The book was always interesting but not as interesting as the T.V. or the computer, if you know what I mean.  But, in the last week or so it has become very interesting and I was very sad to read the end of it.  Oh, and just in case you were wondering the book I was reading is called "Little Women" by Louisa May Alcott.  It is MUCH better than the movie.  :D  But, anyway, other than that not much has been going on.  So, I'll talk to you all later.

God bless
Love,
Hannah

May. 6, 2008 - If You

Hey everyone,

Earlier I had something to write about, but I completely forgot what it was.  Sorry.  Anyway, I guess I'll make a tag.  So, here I go.

If You

If you won ten thousand dollars and your only way of spending was either on socks or underwear which would you pick?  That's hard......I guess......socks


If you had to dye your hair and your only choices were lime green, hot pink and neon orange which would you pick?  Maybe all three

If you were stuck in an empty room with nothing but yourself and a bottle of nail polish what would you do?  Write "Hannah was here" all over the place.

If you had to get a job and your only choices were trash pick up or sausage stuffing which would you choose?  Sausage stuffing

If you had to give one of these items up and never eat them again which one would it be, pizza or ice cream?  Pizza

Well, its pretty late so I'd better go now.  I'll talk to you all later.

God bless
Love,
Hannah
P.S. I'm sorry this entry was short and probably boring but I'll try to think of some better to write soon.

May. 5, 2008 - Not Much Going On

Hey everyone,

    Ok, so, not much has been going on lately and that's why I haven't written in a while.  Yesterday's Sunday school was a little different because everyone was in the sanctuary to talk about the up coming event on May 17th.  We are having a carnival which is very exciting.  I'm going to be helping with games and crafts and I think something is going on in the youth room.  After church we went out to eat with friends from church, afterwards dad took me driving around a neighborhood and he let me drive home, but it wasn't very far.  Driving is very exciting and the main thing I need to work on is parking, but I am getting better at that.  Last night we had a church service which is really weird because we don't usually have church on Sunday nights.  The reason for the service was we had a missionary family visit our church and they talked about their ministry in Mexico.  It reminded me a lot of when we were missionaries and traveling around a lot.  Well, I need to go now.  I'll talk to you all later.
God bless
Love,
Hannah

Apr. 30, 2008 - What Went On Today

Hey everyone,

   I am sad to say that I did not win, but it was very close.  I would like to say thank you to all of you who voted for me, so, "Thank you".  Today we all went out to eat for lunch and then we went to the park.  Mom and Gabe watched Holly play on the equipment while dad and I went driving around the park.  Thankfully there weren't very many cars or people around.  Dad said I did a good job, but I really need to work on parking before I have the guts to drive on the streets.  After we got back from the park dad asked me if I wanted to walk to Office Max with him, and I said "yes"  So, we walked to Office Max and on the way back we saw one of Gabe's friends, which probably doesn't interest you all but whatever.  I gotta go because I have to get ready for church soon.  I'll talk to you all later.
God bless
Love,
Hannah

Apr. 23, 2008 - Devotions, Driving and Babysitting

Hey everyone,

     This morning in family devotions dad read to us “When God Writes Your Love Story” by Eric and Leslie Ludy.  It is really good.  Today’s chapter was about family and how family has a very big effect on our lives, and how we treat family members differently then how we treat our friends, a lot of times we treat our family worse than how we treat our friends.  Here is an example, your little sister goes into your room without permission and breaks your favorite hair clip and when you find out you get really mad and yell at her, one day you are at church and your friend breaks your other favorite hair clip and when you find out your response is “AW, that’s ok don’t worry about, I don’t really care”.  I was thinking about how I do that a lot, and I want to change that.  I want to treat my family better than my friends.  I don’t treat my parents worse than friends but I’m really bad with my little sister.  So, I’m going to pray about that and I hope you will pray for me too.  Anyway, on other accounts yesterday my dad took me driving for the first time in an empty parking lot behind the theater.  It was a LOT of fun and dad said that I did good, but it will be a little while longer before I drive on the street, but I am very excited.  Yesterday evening I babysat two little kids from church for a while, while we were coloring Micah asked the cutest question ever, it went like this, “Who takes care of you when you are all by yourself?” Hannah answers, “Nobody, I’m old enough to stay home by myself.”  “Then why do you have a mom?”  I thought that was the cutest question and my response to that was “To make my food and wash my clothes and give me hugs.”.  Of course there are many more reasons but he had to go to bed and I didn’t think he was interested in listening to the whole list.  Well, I’d better go do more school work.  I’ll talk to you all later.

God bless

Love,

Hannah

Apr. 21, 2008 - GUESS WHAT!!!???!!!

Hey everyone,

    GUESS WHAT!!!!???!!!!!

I got my leaner's permit today.  I'm so excited.  I can't drive today because my dad has to go to work and I have drama.  I've been praying a lot asking God to help me and not be nervous.  Let me tell you something, God is Awesome.  I was hardly nervous at all (and for me that is saying something) and I got all of the questions right.  :D  When Gabe got his permit in Alabama they gave him a temporary paper one and then mailed him a permanent one a few weeks later but they gave me my permanent one two minutes after they took my picture.  Well, I need to go now.  I'll talk to you all later.
God bless
Love,
Hannah
P.S.  Here is a picture

Apr. 19, 2008 - What True Love Is and Isn't

Hey everyone,

   I saw an icon recently that says "True love is when you shed a tear, and still want him, it's when he ignores you, and you still love him, it's when he loves another girl and you smile and say you're happy for him when all you can do is cry."  I must say that I strongly disagree with that saying and if that is what true love is then I don't want it.  In my opinion that is just the fear of rejection.  So, I decided to write a poem about what I think true love really is.  I really hope you like it.

True Love

True love is when your peers say

 “Who cares about what your future husband thinks”

 And your response is “I care”

 

True love is when you and your husband

Are taking a walk in the park

And a supper model walks by you

And your husband looks at you

 

True love is when you are sitting in the hospital

And the doctor tells you that you have cancer

And you might not make it

And your husband turns to you and says

“I’m right by your side Babe through it all”

 

True love is when

You first make that decision to

Save your first kiss

For your husband

© Hannah Woodward

Well, I hope you liked it.  I'll talk to you all later.

God bless

Love,

Hannah

Apr. 18, 2008 - Mamma and Pappa's Visit

Hey everyone,

   I know It's been a while but my grandparents were here this week and they just left today.  (BOO-HOO!!!! )  Anyway, we did have a great time with them and I thank God for that.  They got here last Thursday and on Friday we went shopping in Williamsburg and my Grandmother bought me and Holly flip-flop dishes.  They are so cute.  On Saturday we decided to let Mamma and Pappa rest and we went to "King's Dominion" for a little while.  Sunday after church Holly had a girl scout thing with Mamma, and Mom and I went.  Mom went to drive us there and I went to take pictures. :D  On Monday mom, Mamma, Holly and I went to Short Pump Mall to shop (of course) and I bought to really cute tops.  On Tuesday all of us but mom and Mamma went to the Navy museum in DC, that was fun.  On Wednesday we didn't really do anything exciting.  On Thursday morning dad, Pappa, Gabe and I went to the Holocaust Museum here in Richmond.  It was really cool.  Pappa bought me a yellow wrist band that says "Remember 6,000,000".  (The six million Jews that were killed during the Holocaust....I think. :P)  After the museum at four o'clock Gabe and I went to Deep Run High School for our end of the year drama performance.  For the first half hour I helped set up and after that I took care of a bunch of little kids for about an hour and a half.  Then I had to go and do my part in the play.  Right before I went on stage to say my lines my heart was pounding very fast and I was this close ___ to throwing up.  After I said my lines I was this close _ to throwing up.  XP :D  Here are some pictures of the Navy museum.

   In the Museum


On the ship



Around DC

Well, I better go now.  I'll talk to you all later.
God bless
Love,
Hannah
P.S. Please pray for my grandparents they are traveling right now.  Thanks!

Apr. 5, 2008 - KD and Shopping

Hey everyone,

    Today was a great day.  First I got up around....well, I don't know what time I got up.  Anyway, a little while after I got up we went to "Kings Dominion".  "Kings Dominion" is a really cool theme park here in Virginia.  Keep in mind that my brother went to work before I got up.  He works at chick-fil-A.  (The best fast food restaurant in the world)  But today he is working at the Chick-fil-A in KD (KD stands for "Kings Dominion")  When we left home it was raining and my mom was thinking "What are we doing it's raining, this isn't going to be any fun".  When we got to KD we went in a little building to get our seasons passes and when we went out the rain was much lighter.  Before they let you in the park you have to go through the metal detector and when we came out of the metal detector place (Not sure what it's called) the rain had completely let up.  PRAISE THE LORD!!!!  That was so cool.  We couldn't stay long because daddy had to go to work so we went home and ate lunch and about thirty minutes to an hour later mom. Holly, and I went shopping.  Holly got a new night gown, a dress and a really pretty skirt and I got a really pretty dress and a top to go on under it.  Well, I'd better get going now.  I'll talk to you all later.
God bless
Love,
Hannah

About Me
Hey everyone, My name is Hannah. On this blog I write about what is going on in my daily life and I also like to post pictures that I take. I figured that before you read my blog you should know a little bit about me so here I go, My first love is The Lord God Almighty, I have yet to meet my second love (my future husband). I do not play the dating game for certain reasons, obviously I am very concerned about my purity, I am still very young and while I am I don't want things like dating and a boy friend in the of my growing relationship with my Saviour. I love photography, singing, listening to music, going to church, my family and friends and most importantly The Lord God Almighty. I hope you enjoy my blog and I hope you come back. God bless Love, Hannah/AnAmericanGirl P.S. Check out the poem I wrote, it's below my music player, enjoy.
