Hi Everyone!

We stayed home all weekend, and my mom and dad worked on the Chicken Coop while me and Hope swam in our pool! The Chicken Coop was finished yesterday! It looks great, and Chickens seem so happy! :)

Here are some pictures:

Building the Chicken Coop...

The finished chicken coop ready for the chickens!

My dad putting the chickens in there new home. It was the perfect day to put them in it! :)

Here is the house where the chickens will sleep and lay eggs (They will start laying eggs in September)

All 5 chickens, they always are together. :) (We had 17 to begin with but gave 12 to my Grandpa to give to some friends and also keep a few for himself. We found out that Big Rob, was a rooster so we gave him to my Grandpa too, but he is keeping him. :)

What me and Hope did all weekend-Swimming! :)

I hope you have a wonderful day! :)

Love,

Liz

Hello,

I really want to buy some long to knee length jean skirts for the summer, and I have had trouble finding them. I only own 1 jean skirt, as I don't wear skirts all the time, mostly jeans and shorts. I love skirts though, and I really want to get some to wear to church and on other days too! :)

So I was wondering, girls, where do you get your skirts? It can be a website you get them from, or a store.

I can't wait to hear from you! :)

Thank you,

Liz

Hey Everyone! :)

I have a new template! I absolutely love it! I got the header from http://www.thecutestblogontheblock.com (but typed my title on it), and then I just did the rest by myself. :) I am so happy to have some change! I would love to hear your thoughts about it! :)

On Sunday my dad put and filled up our 3 ft. inflatable pool! To me swimming means it is finally Summer! :) Yay! On Monday we swam in it all filled up, but it was freezing cold! lol Hopefully, it will warm up soon! :D

Today, it is gloomy (pretty dark too) and pouring down rain. :( It will be nice for the plants though! Also, we haven't had a good rain in a while. :)

Last night my parents suprised my sister Hope and I, and we went and saw the movie Up 3-D! It was a cute movie, and the 3-D was awesome! It was really sad too. Have any of you seen it? :)

I hope you all have a Wonderful day! :)

Love,

Liz

Aaah, Summer the time of swimming, walking on the cool grass with your barefeet, shorts (long shorts for me), t-shirts,flipflops, playing volleyball and badmitton outside, gardening, eating tomatoes and other garden veggies, having wet hair and not having to dry it ;), taking pictures of God's beautiful creation, sunny days as well as rainy ones, warm weather, typing about my summer days on this blog, writing stories and letters to friends in the air-conditioned house or at the table on the deck outside, and most of all being with my family either on a vacation, gardening outside with them, picking vegetables , or inside our house trying to cool off with them. :)

Yay for Summer Break! :)

Today was my last day of school, being a 9th grader! I have had a great 9th grade school-year and I feel as if I have learned a lot! My sister Hope and I are still going to do Bible, Math, and reading a book of our choice, in the Summer, but we get 3 weeks off before that. (I want to try to read my Bible in the Summer, though.)

I am so happy about Summer break, and I can't wait to do all of the things that I mentioned above. :D

When do you all get off for Summer Break?
