A little this & that, and more of that, and musings, and me, just being weird. http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/misselisabeth12/ en-us Homeschool Blogger Tue, 28 Jul 2009 14:13:00 -0500 Tue, 28 Jul 2009 14:13:00 -0500 Don't worry, I haven't disappeared from the face of the earth. It's just been a little chaotic. UPDATE! Gracie is crawling, and has MAD hair skills, pics coming. Noah  has gained a hunting 'thing' and is VERY cute. Julia is a social butterfly, as usual, and continues to make friends. I have recently got Champion in 4-H for Genealogy, Which some people say is the hardest project in the whole of 4-H, and I believe it. My notebook took my 37 hours, and that's a minimum. so, I'm going to State! We moved to the country-side,and LOVE our 4 & a quarter acres, WITH woods. My dad is in a band, and they are doing well, GO GIDEON PRESS! :-) And, that's the whole right now,ok, bye!

Life has just been hectic! Let me update. This year for 4-h I did geneology, horseless horsemanship, and painting & drawing. If I can, I will post pictures of my projects. I cannot write a long entry, but I will say I have missed everyone, I will blog as soon as possible.  Love, ME12 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/misselisabeth12/594338/ Tue, 23 Sep 2008 15:39:00 -0500 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/misselisabeth12/594338/ The trees are green, the flowers are up, Happy Happy Happy Happy Happy Happy. Spring is finally here, I thought it would never come. On easter, snow was actually on the ground. Sometimes, I hate living in Indiana. Spring just came. In CA it's always spring and in AZ, it's always Summer. Here it's usually Winter. My mom and I hate the winter. We're True Californians. Tonight I am in a play, I will have to practice in curlers, and that will be awkward. It's a World War II play and I'm doing a 1940's hairstyle on me. That will be Fun. Last night I slept in a knit hat ( I made it) I had to manipulate it over my Curlers, may as well call me alien head. I'm the Narrator, AKA Cocky van Woerden. It's about Corrie Ten Boom, and I'm her niece. Got to go rehearse, If we get it on camera, I will post it, I promise. Maybe I'll also post last year's. My sister was Nana and the Crocodile, (it was Peter Pan) And I was Tigerlily.   I leave in an hour   Still here   I'm bored   I'm still bored   Noah's watching First Knight   He's actually in the kitchen   He never watches the movies he turns on   More than half he knows word for word     He gets it from my dad   Hi dad!

I have finally finished school. It has been over a month since I last blogged. Ok, blogs for the, well, post. My brother noahmichaelsamuel   And my sister missrosey10  I finally have a clean room. I cleaned it, my mom even wondered if I had thrown all my garbage out the window!  Well, lately when I cheerlead my ankles hurt so bad and so instead of bouncing during the cheers, I bend my knees, so right now, my knees & ankles REALLY hurt. My sister has been selling soap and she has been bringing them to the basketball games, so, in result, her patience has paid off. She has, literally, no soap. She makes soap and they're WONDERFUL! I really want to start selling rock candy. My birds have been REALLY annoying lately. They are the escape mistresses. I have been thinking on posting the script for the movie I'm making. Pirates, of course. I love pirates, if you haven't noticed already! Well, I have to go. If I want to add stuff to my blog, I only have 30 min.!

I am tired. Today we get our piano. I am excited. As you can see, I have upgraded my blog. Thank you SO much Limonaide. We are also having visitors today. Thank you all who have commented that you will pray for my great-grandma. But it just so happens she died two days after my last post. Sorry I haven't posted in forever! It's been really busy at my house. In between, school, cheerleading, co-op, speech, piano lessons, christmas preparations, cleaning my room, etc. I have not been able to blog. Oh, yah, and in between trying to sleep! So, does everyone have their christmas presents for their families? I have to admit, I don't! Christmas has officially caught me off guard this year. Oh, did I further tell you that since we are rotating our furniture to fit the piano, I am very uncomfortably sitting with my knees above the computer table, hunching over to reach the keys,  on the back of our very high sofa. I am positive that my dog dislikes me. She pretends to like me, until I give her a bath. Then, BOOM! Every time I hug her, she growls. Wait! THERE'S THE PIANO! It's Here! It's Here! It's Here! It's going into the spot! Going, going, going, IT'S IN PLACE!! YAHOO! I just finished Mozart's 'ode to joy' It has sticky keys, but it's a piano.!!!!!! Yesturday, I made 3 pairs of earrings, My first pair has one disco-ball thing except it is glittery & silver. then on top of that, it has a navy present, and, best of all, they dangle! My second pair I'm wearing. They are snowflake dangles that are low.  My third match my christmas pj's. They are red and white poms poms. They kind of dangle too.  Anyway, I was in " A Dicken's of a Christmas". It was fun. Except it was cold & damp. Otherwise it was fun. I got to go now, BYE!    ME12, POTC'S #1 FAN!   http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/misselisabeth12/445200/ Sat, 15 Dec 2007 09:37:00 -0600 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/misselisabeth12/445200/ Hello everybody, before I start blogging my fun life, I have prayer request. Today my great-grandmother on my father's side was rushed into surgery. she has had liver-intestine problem, plus some diarrhea problems. She was hardly eating. so, they had surgery and found it was not cancer, but it was more of a swelling. So, I ask you to pray for her. So, is everyone ready to get out that turkey, mix up the chex, watch football, and be thankful? People now take a little too much for granted. Take food for instance. A lot of people will not have a turkey. Imagine, no turkey! that would be a mess. The pilgrims came to America to worship God in their own way. After Squanto taught them how to plant their food, they had a feast, the first thanksgiving. No football, sorry. No chex, coke,etc. But they were more thankful than we are, by a ton. They had food. The winter before, they were tortured by hunger, and with the yellow fever. Only a few were left. So, this year, don't take it for granted. Now, for less somber things. Music recommendations. Rebecca St. James- she is a wonderful artist and I REALLY enjoyed her album, If I had one chance to tell you something.  So, it's about one of her good friends, turned down the wrong path, and it is what she would say if she had one chance to tell him something. Andrew Peterson- this guy, is such a good writer. actually, he had the pleasure of writing the Veggietale's The Wonderful Wizard of Ha's   silly song. So, that is the weekly recommendations. Now, a riddle. C     V     B     N    What comes next? Comment, and see if you win!
