    "I'm Late, I'm Late, For a Very Important Date! No Time to Say 'Hello', Goodbye! I'm Late, I'm Late, I'm Late!

    Hello everyone who find interest in my blog! Long time no entry!

    Well, to start off....*thinks of what happened after the last entry*...

    For starters, you know(maybe) that my family was looking for a new church for us to go to. Well.....we are members of a new church! It is really great, everyone is a family to each other. I feel so at home there, I have never had an experience with people like that, and I am just so greatful that God has led us there. Thank you everyone who was praying for us!

    On Friday, the sunday school teacher from that church, Jessica, an other girl, and I went to get our toenails done, it was the first time for me having a pedicure. I enjoyed it very much. Afterwards, we went to Cold Stone(an ice cream place) and had some ice cream. *wants some more of that ice cream*

    I AM SSOO PROUD OF MYSELF!!!! Only a few hours ago, I finished reading Bleak House by Charles Dickens! WWWWWOOOOOOOO HHHHOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It was such a long book, but undoubtedly (sp?) my favorite! It has earned a place of honor on my bookshelf in between The Chronicles of Narnia and The Lord of the Rings. =) *yawfs her bookshelf*

    Okay, I just feel like rambling about my books and bookself right now, so you can skip this part if you don't like to read ramblings. My bookshelf if is not like others, it is more like...um...well, it's over my bed, and actually, it's more like three different shelves. I'd describe them more as office shelves, because my room was originally Dad's office when we first moved to this house. But it has SO much room, and I have over 100 books on it! The top shelf doesn't have any books yet, but I think I will need to start putting books on there soon, because I'm almost out of room on the first two shelves! I'm done now.

    Tomorrow, my friends, sisters, and I are going to a pool. I've never been to it before, I don't think, so it will be fun, I haven't been to a pool all summer!

    Alright, now to some bloggy type things.

    Here is Emma's award for posting my 1,000th comment...

    Okay, I've recieved an award from Laura, it is the sweetest...

    Hello!

    I saw that you had been awarded by godzwilla and decided to come on over to your blog. I was not disappointed. Your writing is very entertaining and I am so happy to have finally found someone who likes Charles Dickens as much as I do!!! He is my favorite author. I love Jane Austen too. I have to admit that I have not yet read Bleak House but I have seen the movie.

    I was so glad that you had a posted a tag so that I could find out a little more about you. Is it alright if I add you to my friends list?

    In Christ,
    Christine Daae
