I'm posting again. Aren't you proud? Even though I'm not getting very many comments, things might happen where people come back to blogging, and then, when they come back, I'm actually have posted! :)
This week, nothing really significant happened. We did a full week of school, putting us past the 50 days mark. That means there's only 130 more to go. :)
This week, we'll be doing a lot of cleaning, and cooking, for my birthday party on next Sunday. 7 days until I'm 16. :)
Natalie is coming in 13 days, less than a week. I'm really excited to see her again, and of course, I'll be sure to post pictures on my blog, of when she's here. Her younger sister is coming to hang out with Gracie for the weekend, so I'm sure that it will be fun for both Gracie and I.
Tonight, I'm headed to my church for youth group. Our church just started having youth, so right now, it's only a once-a-month thing. But it's still a lot of fun, and I get to see my friends again! :)
I'll post again sometime next week.
Love,
~Ashley
Well, guys, sorry I haven't posted in such a while. Things have been pretty hectic, as usual :-) Everything is back in full swing. Piano lessons, school, speech, debate, church, a full load! Debate alone could take up all my time! We're having our first couple practice debate rounds this Tuesday. Please pray that they go well and we all learn a lot. Thankfully, my mom is the only one who has been sick so far this year. She had a weird virus for about a week where she was really tired and achy all the time, but we all took good care of her and she's 100% better now! And thank goodness, nobody caught it from her. School is going pretty well. I took a bunch of tests last week, the hardest one being an algebra 2 exam. Blech! I do not like math :P My other subjects are going great. Even Chemistry! Ha ha. I am really enjoying my history course this year. It is the book Streams of Civilization 2. World history stuff. But I am also looking forward to studying American history next year. My theology course is helping a lot with one of the speech categories, apologetics. In apologetics there are one-hundred questions about defending your faith such as "Explain the meaning and significance of divine inspiration" and you have to try to write 6-minute speeches for as many of them as possible. It is a really great speech event but it takes a lot of time and work. My Dad is teaching it this year, so that is really helpful :-) I ask him all kinds of questions! Hope everyone is doing well! ~Christine
Hello, friends. I'm not dead, can you believe it?! There's entirely too much to explain at the present time, but I have just today started a new blog. You can read about why I haven't posted since November and why I'm moving by hopping over to http://drgnfly1010.wordpress.com.
Thank you so much for reading my blog and keeping up with me and commenting.. I know I've been off-kilter not only since August, but even before that, but I'm hoping that that's all going to change now ;). So please check out my new blog and follow it! I'm still in the process of catching up on all of your blogs, as well, but I don't think I'm going to be able to catch everything, so if there's something particularly exciting or life-changing, let me know!
Goodbye for now,
~Bethany
I am so excited and very proud to say I am now officially the oldest of 9 children! :) Samuel Ira was born today! We are 20 years and 12 days apart. He is just precious and sweet! A true gift from God! I'm tickled there is another newborn in the house! :D Altho... there are so many people to share him with. LOL! Trying to snatch him anytime I can! ;) Will get some more up about him and pictures soon! :D I am just soo happy he's here!
I am so blessed by God to have another sibling to love, to watch grow up and to TRY to be an example of how to live as our Messiah did!
Thank you God for the blessing of this precious babe! Such an awesome Shabbat this has been!

HEY i know i said that i would continue in 1 Peter BUT God layed this on my heart instead! SO here we go!
1 Timothy 4:12: Don't let anyone think little of you because you are young. Be their ideal; let them follow the way you teach and live; be a pattern for them in your love, your faith and clean thoughts.
Don't let ANYONE look down on you cause your not as old as them! Be the bigger person! Be THEIR ideal (set an example for them). Have you ever heard the saying "actions speak louder than words"? Well apply that here! show them (them being the world) who we are. Live like you are being wached by God, love EVERYONE (yes even that mean guy that teases you and makes you feel like killing some body) . Have STRONG faith and keep yourself clean by practising you faith and pushing youself to do hard things. Just like you need to work out your body to stay healthy, you need to work out your faith to keep it healthy. I know its HARD to live like that. BUT it pays off, so let the older folks who think you can't do things, see you shine your Godly light! be an image of God! Always remember how AMAZING you are at the gift God gave you so get out there and show them up!
Felix poe!

My 16th birthday is in 13 days- I'm really excited about that. We're having a small party at my house, with family and some wonderful friends. I can't wait to see some people that I don't get to see that often.
Later on this month, Natalie is coming down to spend the weekend with me. Remember in June- how I went up to see her, and Sam- because Mom and I were going to the homeschool convention? Well, I was up there for her 16th birthday- and she'll be down here the weekend after mine. I'm so excited to see her again. Of course, I'll have plenty of pictures to post once she leaves! :)
This week, there isn't much going on at our house. Gracie is the only one who has anything to do, really. She takes both violin and piano lessons.
As for me, right now, I'm not taking any sort of lessons. For the month of October, I was taking some online guitar classes, but of course, now it's November, and they are no longer going on.
Anyway, I guess that's all I have for this week. I'll check in, and be sure to comment! I miss hearing from all my bloggin' buddies!
Love,
@sh!ey
