~Thanks for stoppin' by my blog! About myself, I am a fifteen year old young lady, with the hope of someday becoming a wife and mother while serving the Creator. Old fashioned things, farms, and novels have their place in my world, not to mention Medieval Literature of fair maidens and courageous knights. Beth March, Elizabeth Bennet, Elinor Dashwood, and Miss Georgiana Darcy are some of my heroines. I also live alone with my parents, dog, 5 cats, and around 20 chickens. Walking in the woods, writing the suspense, romance, and historical, playing the piano, reading novels, stargazing, baking, and blogging are some of my hobbies, along with our arrival of our beehive. I enjoy just sitting around and listening to classical musical, symphonies, and good old oldies on podunk radio stations. Enjoy your stay, and don't forget to comment! ~

Oct. 13, 2008 - Post Birthday!

Posted in Family Memoirs



   I want to thank all of my fellow bloggers who left a comment wishing me all the happiness in my 15th year of life. And my dear cousin who left me an entire post expressing her celebration! Thank you dear one!

   I will try to tell what happened for my birthday...it was very small with only my parents, and my close family.
   We had a small campfire where we roasted hot dogs, and all sorts of campfire goodies. Then for dessert we had delicious pumpkin pie...which I have had on all of my birthdays instead of cake...I like pumpkin pie a lot better!

   Then we opened presents before it got too dark...and I received (which I already knew about and watched her order it) a drawing book with loads of good tips, Drawing the Head and Figure by Jack Hamm. However, I did have to mark off all of the obscene drawings...hint 'drawing the head and figure'

   And sometime this week, another thing my parents ordered for me was the movie North and South by BBC drama! I absolutely adore this movie...very heartbreaking and tragic. I think I almost enjoy the music to the movie more than the movie itself.

   And the most surprising item occured on my birthday list! I had the honour to meet the four oldest sisters of the Farmgirls. We had been chatting, and decided to meet at a small reenactment going on at an easy distance for the both of us, so we planned and became acquainted. I had truly an exciting time...and my cousins even decided to meet them with me.

 
From left to right...Emily Rose, myself, Breezy, Cassia, Susannah, Leah, and Jessica

They were all so sweet, that we ended up walking and touring with them for almost six hours...but it was worth every minute. I count meeting them as a belated birthday gift! :)

Oct. 9, 2008 - Happy Birthday Maggie!

Posted in Family Memoirs

Happy Birthday Maggie!

I am so blessed to have such a sweet friend, cousin, and sister as you. Since today is such a special day, I thought I’d surprise you with this post, and share a few thoughts.

Your talent for writing is always inspirational to me. You have the imagination to come up with what to say, what the characters will do, etc. I can’t wait until you finish one and get it published for they are so intriguing!

Here is a little ditty I wrote about our history (sing to the tune of the Farmer and the Dell).

The Three girls would play,
The Three girls would fight,
Oh I’m sure glad they changed,
And now they get along.

For those of you who did not know us long ago, we never got a long. But since then God has changed our hearts and are now all three best friends. God has changed our lives so much in the past few years, and I am forever thankful for His mercy and grace. It is a beautiful to think that we will get to spend eternity in the presence of our Savior together.

May God bless you in the coming year and continue to grow you in godly womanhood.

I love you!

 

Your Cousin,
Emily Rose
