This morning I woke up kind of sick. It got worse sort of. So today has really stunk. But I have slept a ton! I actually feel a lot better! Which is great because I really want to be able to see Sarah and Kerra tomorrow. It is so annoying, though, because I can't go to ballet tonight! Not only is that just, annoying that I have to miss out on the funness of it, but I lose $10! Joy.

Grandma came to visit yesterday afternoon and left this morning when we supposedly started school. We only did Bible study, then watched a Thomas Edison video, then I went to sleep. But when I woke up feeling a bit better, I did a couple other subjects.

I hope everyone has a good day. There is not much more to say. I am still in my p.j.’s. (And no, I did not put them on early, they are still on from this morning. Lol!) I guess I will go!

I’m healed in Jesus’ Name!

Omg yesterday was awesome!  I babysat Kerra's younger siblings at 5:00-9:30 and it was so much fun!  It reminded me so much of 2 years ago when I stayed at Kerra's house for 2 weeks.  I don't really go to her house that often.  She just comes here.  It was just like babysitting my own siblings, except they were smaller so we could do different things.  So I had a really good time. 

Today has been a big cleaning/school day.  (Oh boy!)  I'm done with cleaning but not homework. (forgot aahhgain.)

TTYL!

That is a sad picture of my brother.  Don't worry, he is just being himself.  Jk.  Sort of.  It is @ halloween, btw.  He doesn't just, dress up like that!  Lol!

Guess what?  My Grandparents are visiting again!  Yay!  And they got me these fish thingys.  You know the Christian fish that are always on the back of cars?  They were saying last time they visited about how a cute thing for me would be a Christian fish symbol with a smiley face in the middle.  (Cause I'm a happy Christain)  So today they came wiht a bunch of the metal fish, that they got made for me!  >Coolness!<  (Thanks Grandma and Grandpa!)

So there is not much else to say.  We didn't do a full school day today. 

Ttyl!

This is a picture of my totally cute sister, Abyni.  (My Mom's Abyni) Isn't she adorable?

Omg my hands hurt SO BAD from ballet last night.  I have blisters across the top-right underneath my fingers- on my hands.  Lol!  So yea.  I'm in pain!

Guess what?  KERRA came over today for art class, and she got to stay until 6!!!  We had so much fun!  Of course.  :o)

Not much more to say.  Guess I will write tomorrow! 

Stripe.  Oh, man, I mean,

Sprite.  :o)

Tonight is ballet practice!  *Smile!*  I'm kinda nervous about it since I just got over being sick.  I'll be okay though. 

Well, we just got done with school and I had a shower, so there is not much to share.  There is something really cute below, though.

This is something my friend Mary e-mailed to me.  It is very sweet.  Don't worry it won't damage your computer or anything like that.  Just click on the link.

That is the kind of person I totally love.  People who spend time, or maybe not taking time to do something to make other people happy.  Whoever made that website rocks!

I would change the Little Mermaid music on my blog to something different, but, my Grandma just loves it so much.  :o)

Gonna Go!

We watched movies when I wasn’t feeling good. I saw Miss Congeniality 2. It was good- for a sequel! I also got Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants. But I kinda want to watch that with friends.

My Dad bought me the movies Legally Blonde and Pirates of the Carribean! I loved him after that! Omg I can’t wait till the second Pirates of the Carribean comes out!

Today we went to a used bookstore and to Target. I also went to Church. Church service was so great this morning! One of the associate Pastors did service this morning and it was awesome.

So I had a great visit with my Dad and an awesome time! Last night we went to Incredible Pizza and had fun there. We didn’t stay very long since I had just gotten over being sick, though.

Oh yea, at Target today, they had a bunch of scarfs and hats on sale for $3.27 that were usually $15.27! (So guess what I came home with:o) I love them SO much!!!

I got done with a book a while ago.  It is really below my "level" and stuff, but, to tell you the truth, I really actually enjoyed it!  It is one of the books out of the Red Rock Mystery Series called Phantom Writer.  Read that one first if you want to read any of them.

Sorry I have not written anything peoples! 

I got grounded until Monday, cause of something, It was something to do with my job not getting done, and then ever since Monday, I have been to busy to type!

Sucks to be me.   Just kidding!! :o)

Monday night was ballet practice and I loved it.  Next week we might start practicing for the recital:)

Kerra came over yesterday for art class, as soon as art class was over we played basketball-without a basketball hoop.  It was very interesting.  We would dribble and then just shoot-randomly in thin air and yell, "Yay!!!  That was SUCH a GREAT shot!!"  Or we would say to each other, "What the heck was that?  You are supposed to get the ball in the basket you silly dingleberry!"  So, what a blast :-D   I hung out with Mason, D.J., Kylee and Kaylee a lot yesterday, too. 

Sarah and Ruby were over last night.  Kylee and Kaylee were, too.  Sarah stayed longer than anyone and we all did a bunch of fun stuff.  Sarah gave me a make-over and we had a fun time!

Saturday I got to see Kirsty AND eat a soft pretzel!!  What a great day.  Lol!  esp. with me getting a soft pretzel!  Lol, I loved getting to see Kirsty :~) 

I am so glad.  I could cry!  Look:

http://www.barlowgirl.com/news/default.asp?newsID=69

Isn't that COOL?!

Oh yea, Sunday I bought a Thousand Foot Krutch C.D.  at Church.  Thanks for the info. Amber!! 

Well, gotta rocket!

Sprite

My life rocks!  I just got home from ballet practice, my gosh I love it!!  I am doing very well, too! 

Today we did school, until 2.  Kylee and Kaylee came over around 3. They left at 5:30.  We all had lotsa fun.  Then I started Supper, we ate, and I left for ballet.

I didn't make my bed this morning.  I have been having a shower and making my bed every morning, this morning I didn't do either.   I woke up kinda later.  I went to bed earlier than usual last night.  Hmm.  I have been SO tired lately! 

Last night Kaylee came with me to Rescue Team and Youth.  We had such a blast!!! She had a great time, too.  I was glad she enjoyed coming. 

I also got to babysit Samuel and Jaden yesterday and make $50.  Yay! 

I am going to go to bed now. 

Goodnight!

Goodbye!

uh-nuuuuueiw dieeeuks....

>Snores<

Lol!

I thought of something the other night that I thought was so flippin cool! 

God's word is like a bar of soap.  It is hard for you to hold on to His rules sometimes, but if you really use His word, you will be clean.

Isn't that cool!?

The weather here has been weird.  You know how the other day I said that all of the sudden one morning it snowed?  Well the day after that it got warm out again, and it has been warm out ever since!  (don't ask me!)

I might get to babysit Samuel and Jaden this Sunday, too!  That would be SOO awesome!  I love babysitting them, and I get paid so much for it, too! 

Today has been fun. We just got done with school, though so there is not much to say. 

     Yesterday was funner. :o)  Kainan tied Jaedin to the fence with the neighbor-girls jump rope, and it was very funny.  Then I tied up Jaedin to the tiny Dora chair, and we all got turns of getting tied up to it after that,  even the neighbor girls were saying, "I want a turn!!!  Tie me up to it next!" I got tied to it as well.  It was very funny.  At least we find something to do with our time so that we are not bored.  Lol! 

     I also went through my clothes the other day and found a bunch that I didn't want anymore, so I went out to the neighbor girls (by neighbor girls I mean Heather, Nicole and Brittany.  They mainly hang out with Paris.) and I was taking stuff out of the basket to ask if they wanted it, And I heard "I WANT IT!!" For every thing I pulled out.  That was funny, too!  It was like an auction or something. Except I didn't get any $$.

     Mason came over later to help sand/paint kitchen cabinet doors.  We only ended up sanding them because by the time we were done it was time for supper.  Mason stayed for supper, too.  Then he got a horrible cough and was going to go home because he didn't want all of us to get sick.  But Mom wouldn't let him go home until the cookies were done, so that he could take some home with him.  We had lots of fun with him while he was here, though.  I am so happy we have such awesome neighbors now!

That's all I have to type for now.

Thanks for reading my blog!

Hello out there.....

Did you all check out my poll?  Please only vote one time if you vote at all.

I am so happy! 

1st of all because: I get to start ballet tonight!

2nd of all because: yesterday I babysat for a long time and made $50!

3rd of all because: My Dad is paying for my first month of ballet as my Christmas gift <3

4th of all because:  I just am!!!!

Yesterday was so much fun!  I babysat 2 kids, Samuel and Jaden from 8am to 5pm and made $50.  It was very easy because Sam is good friends with Kainan and Jaden is good friends with Paris and Abyni.  That doesn't mean I didn't do any work, just, it was easier!  I played basketball with Samuel for sooooooo long, and played with Jaden a lot too.  I also hung out with Mason a lot yesterday.

I went to a Rescue Team meeting last night, our friends gave me a ride there.  After that I went to youth at Rhema and the service was so good!

I am SO happy!  I get to start ballet TONIGHT!!!

gtg!

Today I am happy!

Yesterday I babysat Aaron, then after Aaron's mom came to pick him up,  Kylee and Kaylee came over.  We had so much fun!

Today we did school.  I am so happy cause before math was soooo stressfull, now that we have started Mega Math, I love math!  (not admiting we have only gotten up to 3-digit subtraction... hey! It is still better than before!) 

I also found my bracelet that I lost the other day. I was pretty sure it was just gone.  Then I saw it sitting on the counter when I came downstairs from reading.  I still don't know how it got there!  I did pray about it a couple times.

In about 30 minutes I am going to go and watch Kerra's basketball game!

That is about it.  

Ttyl!

Okay what is God trying to tell me?  This morning for our school bible time our memory verse was  Romans 12:2.  Also, I get daily bible verses e-mailed to me with

ww.bibleverses.com. Today when I read the bible verse from them, it was Romans 12:2!  That was very weird.  Okay, so then I thought, what a coinsidence!  I didn't think- "whats God trying to say here".  I went to Purity Girls.com to read the daily devotion, and the scripture verse for the day was Romans 12:2! 

I know what I will be trying to figure out during bible time tonight!

Mom said it probably has something to do with all the new neighbor friends I have.  God just wants me to watch out! 

Idk.  I will pray. 

My mom is going to paint this across the border of the top of Paris and Abyni's bedroom wall.  She had me write it as a school assignment today.  This is what I came up with:

Once upon a time there was two girls.  The were princesses because they were daughters of the King. (1 John 3:1-3)  Thier Father is God an d He is super amazing! He even created the world (Genesis1) and picked out the 2 girls to be 2 of his daughters!  Not only that, He picked you out, too! (Eph. 1:11-12)  The girls are very happy because thier Father God made them in a fearful and wonderful way.  (Psalm 139:14)  They are so glad that thier Father is so lovely and never angry with them. (1 John 4:16) And they are even more ecxited because He wants to lavish His love upon them! (1 John 3:1)

He offers His children more than any earthly Father ever could. (Matt. 7:11) He is the perfect Father!  (Matt. 5:48)
