Welcome to... The Milk & Honey TeaRoom

Your Hostess:


Hello there! Thanks for stopping by. I'm your hostess Lady Rachel, and this is the blog of a fourteen-year-old girl, who is striving to become a woman of God. I am a homeschool student, living on our small hobby farm with my 7 siblings, from ranging from ages 18-1yo. Take a look at my life as the 3rd daughter from a large homeschooling family and how God walks with me through it. Blessings!

A Birthday Surprise!

Posted in Birthdays




First of I want to say, no SHOUT... HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO AMANDA!SuperAngel turns 18 today. Who is SuperAngel? Well...

(Willy Wonka theme music)

She’s a sweet 18 year old
She’s just can’t ever be told
How much she is loved
She’s and precious and sweet as a dove!
SUPERANGEL, HERE SHE IS:

Now, since I have sung her birthday song, I will now give her her presents!


OH! Wait! She has not blown out her candles yet! Bring in the chocolate, uh, cake!

AmandasCake.jpg picture by SoulRestES

Isn’t it just fit her?! It’s colourful and pretty! Oh, and look, there is another birthday song on it for her!

Now for the gifts!

The first one was REALLY hard to find... I got it online... Pretty neat huh? There is a inscription on it, Amanda, read it out loud so everyone can hear you! (LOUDER!)

AmandasGiftBag.jpg picture by SoulRestES

Next I got you something you will like! It may not be fitting for the road, but I think you can take her out in the country! Ain’t she a beauty?! She’s saddled and ready for takeoff!

And last but not least... I’m sorry but with buying you the above gifts, I had to spend all the money I had saved up and buy you this:

AmandasLaptop.jpg picture by SoulRestES

It even has a Tux screensaver. Cool huh? And look! What is this? Look at the bottom left corner... what  could it be? A Superman sign? I had it custom made for you. I even had them put your Amandasblogging,com on it for you. That way, if you leave it anywhere, they will open the lid and see your website! Brilliant, aren’t I? I wanted to get you a Superman mouse, but they were out. So you’ll have to use the one on there. Sorry.

Did you get everything you wanted? I hope so! I’m going bankrupt now... but hey, at least you had a good, no, WONDERFUL birthday surprise!

I LOVE YOU!

Love,
  Rachel

PS. Go to her blog to see all the people who posted about her birthday!

I LOVED your party! I did one too, I haven't heard from her, so I don't know how surprised she was! She had so many parties thrown for her!
RYC: Thanks for your encouraging comment. I loved the hobbit, Tolkien describes everything so well, I could picture all the places in my mind so beautifully.
Do I have any animals? I have 2 turtles in my room, and a very fat cat outside. But they don't need to much looking after. My biggest dream is to marry, and move to a farm with chickens , a cow, and a horse or two, a stream, and a lovely meadow. I have wanted this for so long, I can only pray that someday it might happen.
Im sorry I haven't posted a real post in so long, I will try my very hardest to get a post up this weekend.
Luv,
Miss Kitty

How are you? How is school going? Reading any good books?

Good job on the party! I had fun with that!

RYC: Lol! What is the deal with the glasses?! I'm the only one who was wearing them, so it must be natural for you to want to see them in the right place ;)

Well you said Bonfire, so I made one!

I'll tell them you left comments.

I looked on sharla's blog and was like "Dur/Der/whatever I knew she could draw!" Now you have to send us some more pictures :P

Monday, October 29, 2007 - Good Evening Dear Friend

Posted by JillNovak

Dear Rachel,
It was wonderful to meet you in person and we had a lovely time. Elizabeth was so glad to make your acquaintance and enjoyed finding out all of the things you have in common. My only regret is that I did not get to see your artwork, but alas I will have to see it next time I am in your lovely presence. You are very special to us.
I'm not sure that we can come for your birthday so soon, but you may expect a special package to come your way in time for your birthday.

Many blessings, dear friend.
Marmee
