My weekend. . .

I was everything BUT graceful this weekend. I'll tell you why later on. So as you know Alyssa was over until Friday and Leroy and Caleb were over until Saturday. Friday was fun! Alyssa and I went to babysit Nolan at 9:45, Jill was late, she was making a cake. :P So as soon as we got in the car Nolan started talking his little noggin (as he would say "Big noggin") off at Alyssa. I think she enjoyed it though. We got there and Jill ran out the door, without paying me. I think I'll survive for a week! :P We asked Nolan if he wanted a snack and he did but he didn't eat it. lol. So we went outside to play in the sandbox, the sand was very wet. It was good to make sandcastles with though. Aly and I made a nice one (not) and Nolan decided he would pound it flat. I love that little guy. So we went inside after he was done playing with the sand and 15 minutes later we were back outside. :) This time we were going for a walk with Winnie (scottish terrier). Nolan adored Alyssa so we had to take turns pushing the stroller. :D We went in for lunch and I made Nolan a ham sandwich, which he also pounded flat (must be something to do with the word "sand"). After his dazzling lunch I brought him up to bed at about 12:30 he was getting tired, I think from being outside all morning. He went down for his nap no problem, we read the animal planet book we gave him for his birthday twice and then he went down in his crib after he made me turn on his fish light. :P I went downstairs and Alyssa and I made cards with her cardmaking stuff I gave her for her birrrfff (as Coralie puts it) day. :) We made a few cards. So Nolan woke up at 2:30 and Tammy was coming at 3:00 to pick him up and she is always right on time. So we went outside and played with Winnie for a while and I brought him in at 2:50 to change his diaper. Yick! Right when I pulled his pants up and put on his shoes again Tammy yelled "HELLO?!" Then as the routine goes I yell "We're upstairs!" And she comes clopping up the stairs in her high-heels. Nolan left with her after hugging and saying good bye. :) Dad wasn't coming until 5:15 so here is was we had 2 hours and 15 minutes in Jill's house to do whatever. :P We walked around with Winnie for a while and then watched a wedding cake show on tv and then a horse show in England. :P It was a good show though. haha. Alyssa made cards on the living room floor while I enjoyed Winnie's company and the horse show. :) Babysitting went well and when we got home Amelia was here to pick Alyssa up to go home, sad. So they left at about 7:45 and then Leroy and I played Lego: Batman and then Lego: Indiana Jones on the Wii. :) Twas fun. We all watched Gilligan's Island and then went to bed around 10:30. :P lol. I was so tired I wasn't functioning right. The boys left at 7:28 (exactly) to go to the men's breakfast. :D As far as I know the food was good and they had fun. lol. So Saturday dad and I painted my room! :) It looks so cool!! So the not so graceful part was when i was rising out the brushes and smacking them against a stump not thinking and my hair was then speckled blue and blond! lol. Church was good today, Alyssa wasn't there she has a stomach bug... :'( But everybody else was!
Te amo

Awesome Day!

Well I have been having an awesome day! Alyssa is here and right now her and Abigail are playing Wii. :) Leroy and Caleb are coming tonight to sleepover and Alyssa is coming to work with me in the morning. We shall have a jolly time! :D Yehehehe. So today we started off by having a dazzling breakfast of dadadadahhhh WAFFLES! Homemade actually. Twas nice. :) So after that we went outside into the WOODS to see our as mom puts it "vernal pool". It was fun Alyssa wasn't prepared for the boards to sink so she screamed and grabbed onto me! :P It was funny though. So after that we came in and made cards for a while. I made a quite cute one actually, i was being daring with it! :) Then we had omelets and sausage for lunch and Alyssa kept calling the sausage "pig brains" lol. It was grrrreat! Oh and we made coffee cooolatttaaaaassss! :) they were very grrreat! :D Okay I am in an odd mood today. :P Mhm. So after we had our lunch we went out for a walk, the only thing is both sides of the road were flooded and whether you go left or right you run into quite a bit of wetness. :) So we tried to go through it and it's like 40 feet (maybe) until you reach land again! lol. So Alyssa was walking right in the middle of the road where the water wasn't so deep and i was too all of a sudden she screams "BIG TRUCK!!!!" at the top of her lungs. So instead of running around like Alyssa (who had Abigail on her back by the way) I ran through like 5 inches of water that was in the road and onto the sand, almost loosing my flip flop. (i am NOT supposed to run mind you, it was an emergency though. :P) So I am all wet and I feel like laughing my head off again! :) It was funny, and if anyone asks me the stupidest thing I have done lately I am going to say "ran through the middle of the road in a puddle with ALYSSA!" and emphasize the Alyssa. ;) lol. Anyways there is quite a bit left to my dazzling say seeing as it's only 2:10. Tootle pip!

Warmth!

WARMTH! I am so excited! It was like almost 70 degrees today! Praise the Lord! I did half of my school then had lunch. I had a salad again! :P I think I would have a salad everyday if I could. French dressing, lettuce, peppers, pretzels and bacon bits= mmm mmm good! So after I had lunch i went outside and enjoyed the glorious weather! We tried to start a fire in the fire pit but I think it was too wet. Shame really. SO we were about to go for a walk when Suzy pulled up in the driveway! YAY YAY! I love Suzy. So we set off for a walk down the road and figured out there were tons of DEEP puddles at one point and had to walk in the middle of the road, we didn't drown though. . . don't worry! lol. We walked down and along the road and onto this little dead end road which is quite cute. haha. this dog came up to us and wouldn't go away he just wanted us to pat him I think. But Suzy was like "You, go lay down." and the dog went and lied down! :P It was so funny! So we had fun. I am still thinking of what kind of dog I want. . . I think this is one of the hardest things ever! ahah. Oh mom told me I can take a class in photography next year! :) :) :) I am very excited but I have to take spanish too. :P I know te amo is "I love you!" haha. Impressive huh? Yea i know I'm great! haha. Anyways have to go get ready for Prayer Meeting!
Te amo!

SUNSHINE!

Today we had sunshine! Yeehaw! :) I was so excited when I woke up and the sky was blue! I actually wanted to get out of bed today! Thumbs up! so i did school. It was jolly! haha. I had a yummy salad which was rather unusual. . . that is if pretzels, italian dressing, cheese, and bacon bits is weird! Oh, and lettuce of course! Duh! So we went outside this afternoon and I took tons of pictures of. . . well everything! I am going to post some. :) Ah, mom said it is going to be about 70 degrees on Sunday! SO EXCITING! Perfect weather to get together with good friends! :D So here are some pictures!
Me! Nicolas took this one!

I thought this was cool. I tweaked it.

I thought this was cool too. It's Abigail's boot. I was so desperate to get cool shots I layed on the ground! :)

Always there. . .

Hey, well I am writing a little late. I am actually going to write about Alyssa's birthday! haha. Her party was tons of fun! And barrels of laughs! Mrs. Kinney was going to take us to Blessings farm for Aly's birthday and I had known about it for 3 weeks. :) So I couldn't keep it inside. . . I did though don't worry. So I had it bottled up inside of me and I wanted to say something so bad! aha! But I didn't. Though I was wearing my barn outfit and my "Jane" necklace and Alyssa noticed my necklace and said "You haven't worn that for a while." And I was like "I know it's my barn necklace." Then I was like oops! haha. and then she commented on how I must have been having a barn day! Well I was. Haha. I have random days when I wear barn stuff. Helps me remember the horses I think! :P Well we had a wonderful time at the party and when Mrs. Kinney told Alyssa we were going to the barn I thought she was going to faint! haha. she was like screeeching! :P

So we went to the barn Sarah, Alyssa, Grandma Shatney, Leroy, Momma Kinney and I all piled into the excursion and were off! It felt like it too FOREVER to get there! But we got there! haha. Obviously! We got down to the barn and waltz right into the tack room, like the old days! :P Miss Liz and John were in waiting for us! :) So Miss Liz always teases me and listed off a bunch of the horses until she finally told me I had to ride Trixie. :) Obv! So I had Trixie! Always! Alyssa rode Pogo, we found out he is now the leader of the herd... so he was a bit bossy. Leroy rode Tieva, she is a new horse there, I forget what breed she is but she is SO cute! She also seemed very spoiled by her previous owner. . . she had a pink saddle and pink saddle pad and pink brushes and she was definately a girlie girl. Sarah rode Abi, they looked so cute! :) She did really well too! John came in on the last minute with Jim Dandy. We all rode western except John. When I got on Trixie I felt. . . in my words. . . one word, ALIVE, again. Ahh! I missed her so much! She was my best friend until we met the Kinneys. But I think other than the Kinneys a horse is the best friend to have. :D This is true. So we rode around and I was probably not supposed to ride because of my foot still healing but I did anyways! I am glad too! I would have been ok just sitting in the stall talking to my girl. But riding. . . is a good thing! This is true! I was so glad i wasn't sore. . . well a little bit but I must have iron thighs! haha. So last year and even into the beginning of this year I thought I was never going to see Trixie again so I titled this post "Always there. . ." Because I got to go see Trixie! Miss Liz said she hadn't seen Trixie so happy in a long time and told me I shouldn't leave. I really didn't want to leave, I cried but I am just emotional! Walking up that hill was one of the hardest things I have done in a while, I know I will not be back to Blessings Farm and if I am it will be for my 16th birthday because there is no where else! lol. :P :) And all of the other horses. :D It was nice seeing the new horses too. . . there is Tieva, Serenity, and Kody he got there on Saturday though, so no one could ride him, but he was gorgeous! Trixie is still my favorite. How can your un-favorite the friend who stuck with you when no one else would? Well friend-wise I mean. :) Now I have a bunch of wonderful friends that will stick with me no matter what! No matter how far away life may take us we will ALWAYS be there for each other. Well there is another good reason for this post to be called "Always there. . ." Agree? :)

Rain, Rain Go Away. . .



It has been raining for was seems like forever! Really it's only been since Saturday! :) Our yard is flooded and so is the woods. Thinking of it though I couldn't wait for the woods to flood! It is so pretty! haha. We have our on pond for a few weeks! :) If that! Our yard has decided to flood this year too. But it was fun romping around in giant rain boots and sweatpants in the huge puddles earlier, though it was quite cold. Jolly though. I think I would make a good farm girl! lol. I would love to live on a farm! Yeheh! Well I am going to post some pictures, of our flooded life. Good thing thought the basement only flooded an inch or two. :) Not like during last summer right before we were going on vacation, but that's another story!
This is how deep the water was.
Just a random picture I liked. :P
The woods! You see that it is higher this year because the line the other years left on the trees!


Welcome to My life!

I copied Amelia in a way! I thought it was a good idea to have a blog, Kyle did too. :) You are inspiring Mia! :D Though you are really!
