I think I am gonna cry

I lost my purity ring today. I know I had it this morning but I must have lost it when I washed my face in the shower or something. Anyhow I had to look through garbage and everything with still no luck. The worst part is is that my dad made that ring when he was like 17 and Rach had it before me, when she got engaged she gave it to me...that ring has survived a lot, Rachel once dropped it in the garbage disposal at my Aunt June's house. I dunno maybe Dad can make another...I am still really bummed, please pray someone will find it still!!!

Chili, Parades, etc.

Thanksgiving was good, as always Granny made a wonderful meal. We made the turkey and Dad was trying to convince us that you were supposed to turn the turkey over half way through the cooking, we just laughed cuz I guess you could do that but we never have before and if we had we would have heard about it from Granny!
We are still eating turkey and ham and all the fixings and probably will continue to eat them for the rest of the week.

Cracker Christmas was good, that parade was kinda bare, they didn't have that great of floats but I guess that's what happens when chamber of commerce doens't have good people running it. The chili was great and we had about 25 people here...for those of you who didn't get to come we really did miss you and maybe God will have us here still by next year.

I cleaned house and did school all last week (except Thursday ofcourse) so by last night I just crashed, we watched Elf and Sleepover with Dayna and after she left I went to bed and stayed there until I was almost up too late to get to church on time (we got there in the nick of time...drives me nuts!) When we got home I ate a turkey sandwhich with cranberry sauce and then got into my bed again. Also today after my nap I got some reading done, as much as I love to read I never get a chance cuz when I sit down to read I always end up having to get up and do something wether it be fixing food or folding clothes it never fails to happen.

I am hungry again (which is good) and I am trying to gain weight (successfully this time)I know most of you are like GAIN WEIGHT?!?! But yes I need the weight I can't keep getting sick like this!

I'm off to the refridgerator.

Happy Thanksgiving and God bless us everyone...

Oops that's Chrsitmas, oh well...I am thankful today, although-being human-I am not happy with all the stuff going on right now: Rach and Conrad are still sick so they can't even go to Erin's for Thanksgiving AND they won't be able to come here for the cracker christmas shin dig...this makes me so angry although Rach is being realy cool about it though. I can't remember a Thanksgiving without Rachel...and last thanksgiving was my first without Buck, I don't like it when life changes like this, I know God has a plan in everything I am just stubborn I guess and I like the way things were.
Oh and on top of this all, we wanted the Wards to come spend thanksgiving with us this year but they decided on going to Virginia to one of their friends houses, I am happy they got to go but bummed they couldn't come here...wow I am good at whining I sould make a career outta this...

What if...

What if His people prayed
And all who bare His name
Would humbly seek His faceAnd
Turn from their own way
And what would happen if we prayed
For those raised up to lead the way
Then maybe kids in school could pray
And unborn children see light of day

This is a song by Casting Crowns...I am a bigger "What if" person than I sometimes like to admit, But I think this is a good type of what if!

I'm weird...and I love it!

Okay so I saw this on someone elses blog and thought it was kinda cool.

Post in my comment thing One thing about me that you like.

Then post one thing about me that you hate.

I just wanna see what will turn up:-D

P.S. I am not gonna get my feelings hurt so please be honest:-D

I dunno...?

So I don't know if this will be funny to all of you but I thought it was rediculously halarious...maybe because my grandma usually doesn't say things like this:
Christiana was like hey granny do you like my hair? I put gel in it.
And Granny says: Well I guess you're gellin like a fellin' huh?
I laughed so stanky stank hard! Seriously it was like my granny was goin' gansta or somthing:-P Yeah so now I am gonna go watch Jo tape her socks and underwear to the mantle...

Good day!

Last night, as tired as I was, I still didn't get much sleep. I was kinda goin over and over a problem I had and praying about it and stuff...so yeah not a whole lot of sleep there.
Today however, was good. Sally and Cristine from church came ove for lunch with their parentals. We had really good roast beef (compliments of mom's brand new crock pot) and when their parents were leaving we found out they could stay. So we played a sorta weird short version of Monopoly (one good thing about that game-even though it's terribley long-you can make up a lot of your own rules!) We went back to church and all and afterwards Caleb and I and mom and dad ofcourse went to Wendys with peeps from youth group (Jo and Christiana didn't go to church tonigth) and we had fun talking and getting to know everyone better!

Y'all know I would just go on and on but I am gonna stop and go find some sleep or somone to talk to:-)

The eyes are closing.

I am so tired...being out in the sun will do that to me. Today we went to camp for the Soccer Tournament. Good fun as always, Caleb got to play for Arch Creek Bible Chapel (they had the funniest shirts!!) I was happy to see everyone again I miss all of them so badly!
Right now I am waiting for the shower, so I am redeeming the time and listening to the newest Reliant K cd "mmhmm" (Thanks JOSHua) umm Rach if you want a copy bring the lap top to cracker christmas:-D Speaking of which, today everyone made fun of it being called CRACKer christmas...of course then I told them there would be a huge pot...of chili afterwards, man people are funny! Everyone is invited to Cracker Christmas by the way it's November 27th and chili will be porvided, please bring a covered dish and bag of chips or cheese though please.

Okay I am gonna go see if I can get a shower!

P.S. this cd rawks!:-)

Woot Woot

Tomorrow we are goin to camp...I think I have mentioned before how much I love camp!

We were supposed to go shopping tonight with Dayna but she fell today after mopping her class room and hurt her back and neck...please pray she gets better soon!

Rach and Conrad are still sick, Rachel is gettin better but Conrad still kinda has got the strep throat goin on...I guess he isn't contagious just feeling really bad.

Us here in Umatilla are thankfully still well...Dad and I have had sinus problems but that we can handle! I so thankful we didn't bring that strep throat home to anyone!!!

Jo is continually play 'wipe out' on her guitar...now see it was awesome the first 10 times but coming on 100 it's getting a tad irritating! I am sure I get irritating too but dude...gotta love em I suppose.

We were also supposed to have Roast tonight but since it's taking forever and all our stomaches think our throats have been cut we are opting out for pizza which right about now I'd probably eat brussle sprouts...well maybe not those but you get the point...I hope.

Okay now I am more hungry I am goin to find SOMETHING.

Bored, with hope for the future

Right now I am wishing I lived else where, I have had this feeling a lot in my life being as I really don't like Umatilla, but this time it's different...I have friends here now...I think I am just missing my really close friends and I miss my family. I love the family I still have at home I guess I just don't realize how much I hold people dearly until they aren't here all the time anymore.
This weekend should be cool though, I get to see my GOOD friends the Wards and hopfully other people who I don't get to see often. I was thinking today...what would I do without camp horizon? I wouldn't ever get to see my friends if it weren't for Camp stuff! I am greatful to camp for this and greatful mostly to God for giving me this place I can go to see my friends and it's never over three months, even though I only get to see them for a day it's worth it for people like Rachael, Laura, Sophia, Josh and all the rest the Wards I love them so much and they are great!

Umm I guess that's it...I miss everyone and I am not thankful enough so yeah pray I can be thankful...oh pray for Rach and Conrad too they have strep throat...nast stuff!

Life...

I think this song says a lot about Life...well it is called LIFE

Life is a series of impossible dreams, yeah
Full of disappointment and it ain't what it seems
Everybody's pulling you a different way
You want to close your eyes and make it all go away
But what you gonna do when the rent comes do
And the dollars in your wallet are numbered few
Or your neighbor comes knocking on your front door
He wants the mower that you borrowed
The night before your garage burned down
Your boss is screaming 'Cause he walked in your office and
He found you on top of your desk asleep
But what you gonna do that's life!

CHORUS Life! Too much to do and too much strife Life!
Your girlfriend left ya and it cuts life a knife Life!
Seventy years and a nagging wife Life!
You look in the mirror and it's Barney Fife (What do you mean by that?)

Audio Adrenaline

Home again

So we made it home in two hours exactly. This is great in comparison to the 4 hours it took to get there, but on our way home I realized that we had only really made one wrong turn! This lead to so much grief (not to mention hunger) oh wait I just mentioned it:-P

When I got home I quickly realized that we had no toilet in our down stairs bathroom...my dad had redone the floor and got us a brand new toilet:-) This is a very important part of our home! Anyway it looks really good in there and I am glad to have a nice floor now (I have to clean the bathroom and I was tired of suckin gpieces of tile up into my vaccuum!

In other news I am so tired and I am about to eat cuz Leah Joy is losing the lbs instead of gaining them...I'm off to be jolly

just sittin

It's Sunday night and we are still at Rachel's, which I don't mind although I am very tired. We had a whole honkin load of fun this weekend! Friday though on our way here we got lost for two hours, I should sue map quest...nah I'm too nice but I won't ever use them again! Saturday we were supposed to go conoeing but the weather was kinda nasty so we canceled it. Instead we all got ready and went to the mall for lunch, then to the beach to walk...good times, good memories! After that we went and saw The Incredibles, pretty good, not my favorite but some of it was funny! hmmm after the movie we went to Mama's Pizza, I tell you if I ever really wanted to gain 300 lbs all I'd have to do is go there every day for a month! Hot grease is like sinful (being as glutiny is one of the seven sins!) We came back to the apartment, got showers and stuff then went to bed. Today we went to chapel, came home, ate, took naps, watched movies, and I woke up with a bruise on my head and my face was swollen...this was very strange! (I still think it was Jo...always knew she was jealous of me) Rach and Conrad didn't feel well at all this weekend so we didn't go to chaple tonight.
Hopfully tomorrow Dayna can go to the college and talk to a counselor that way she can come to college over here!

On a different note, everyone Please pray for the Joyner family. Ashley Joyner (I believe she is about 15) had her leg amputated on Friday, please pray she will recover well and that God will help them to see good things through this all!!!

I need to get some sleep....sweet dreams

Over the river and through the woods...

To Rachel's house we gooooo!
Yay we are going to Rachel's house..well Conrad and Rachel's apartment! I am so excited I miss them and DAYNA is goin with us...actually we wouldn't have a ride if it weren't for Dayna!
Umm I gotta go, lil more packing to do!
YAY have a wonderful wonderful weekend everyone!~!~!~!~!~!~!

Yo

This week has sorta just been boring, nothing exciting...school, chores the norm.
I have been reading a good book though! I Kissed Dating Goodbye, By Joshua Harris. It's realllly good and I am getting a lot out of it. I didn't think at first that I needed to read it, I was just kinda like well I don't date so why would I need to read a book about not dating. I found out that's not all what the book is about! Actually most of the book is about using your singleness to serve God and get closer to God!
Okay I am past my bed time and my mom is bound to find out:-P Sweet Potatoe dreams!

Yeah Rach...we believe you...

SkittlesRawk: bat room then on to clean the chairs....oh that sounds bad....no really i didnt do it.



Oh dear Rach I do believe you need help! (don't we all....)

Beef Stew

Yeah I think my imagination is broke...I can't think of anything funny to say...lemme try (here goes) beef...stew...yep deffinitly broken!
I'll blog later after I can get a machanic in here

And there was great rejoicing in the camp

Okay so I stole that from The Search for the Holy Grail...but hey we are rejoicing! Bush is still President! My dad was telling us the other day about these guys at work saying they were gonna vote for Kerry so the Lord would come back sooner...I don't think that's how it works but I deffinitly could have seen that being a sign of the last days! Kerry just I dunno I guess he kinda scares me cuz he is so creepy...
Bush is president and I am happy...our soar stomaches/throats are not in vain!
Okay I am going to better earlier than normal tonight so I best be gettin on.

GO BUSH!

Today after school Jo and I made two signs, one said GO BUSH and the other VOTE 4 BUSH, and we stood in front of our house (highway 19) for about and hour and a half and yelled (yes at the top of our lungs) GO BUSH...this was quite fun actually...so after doin that we went at around 5:30 down in front of city hall (where they were voting) and Scrame some more...this time we had compotision! Scary Kerry people were out (seeing as it was almost dark) and we stayed out there till about 7:30 that's when the polls closed here. Also I was getting scratchy throat and dad was losing his voice...so all in all is was fun and I can't wait to see who wins...I will say I pray it's Bush but it's all in God's hands!
Good night all...sweet dreams and all that stuff

I got my hair cut but my mom got a little upset before I left so I was only aloud to get two inches off...now she realizes how much hair this little fur ball child has and she is paying for me to get it redone...I am telling you I was probably supposed to be a twin cuz I have enough hair for two no wait probably three people...and it grows like nobodys business!

The weekend was good, we went to the corn maze with the youth group on Saturday, that was cool. Sunday was good, Darren (Caleb's friend) spent alll day with us...he showed up at 7:30 and we took him home at like 8pm. Last night the Pastor taught on James 1, which just happens to be one of my favorite chapters...and in my oppinion he did a great jorb!

Rach and Conrad are coming back home Thursday, I guess Rach has to go to some baby shower here so they are spending Thursday and Friday night here.

Oh I finally have blinds in my room WOOT it's nice not worrying about peeping toms (lol) yeah I just laughed at my own stupid joke so now Im gonna go...

P.S. WOOT for that extra hour of slumber!!!
