HELLOOOOO BLOG! Yes, you have every right to hate me...I'm a terrible friend. But I'm back..for now!

It's snowing. And snowing, and snowing, and snowing.




This is a sad thing, because my bestest mother and I were going to go shopping in Stillwater today. This is also a happy thing, because snowing + saturday = studying ACT math book, starting on Great Books Paper, "working on AP World History", cleaning out the pit of the disaster (aka my closet), loading my pictures on the computer (by the way...you know how I found my camera cord? Well, right after that, I lost my camera. *dark music* But, I found it yesterday! *cue cheering*), painting my toenails PURPLE, practicing piano, working on Miss Suzi Play, writing in my novel in which I am hopelessly behind on, clean my room, studying my Sunday School lesson, and writing on my blog, all things which I needed to do. Haha. Like that will happen. So, update on my life in the past...two months (in pictures, of course!)



I love this little guy!



He's hilarious. <3>


This was after a lovely game of Penguin outside. (Penguin is my version of Horse.) You can't tell we're sisters, can you?

This was at a church fellowship! This is my beautiful friend, Amy!


This is my other beautiful friend, Ashley!


This is everybody!




After we ate, we decided to have go take crazy pictures with the collection of costumes from various church plays.



Waaay too much fun!



Crazy :)




These people are awesome! We have so much fun!



This is Titus. He is the funniest little boy ever!


This is at a basketball game. (Weird picture..but the only one I have that wasn't really dark)




I love these way too cute shoes.



On the way to our final basketball tournament in Kansas, I got to ride in Ballinger Sprinter (singing, picture taking, stories, and laughing included.)


Fun, of course, was had by all :)


Eeeeww...this is our double chin picture. Heh.


God has blessed me with such wonderful friends.


This was when we finally got home...a day filled with running, sweat, junior high boys in our car talking very loudly, fast food, and very loud cheering for our varsity guys (who got third place!).

Oh, and I must mention..they had some contests at the tournament (three point, free throw, and the triathlon). My Dad, Randall, and I were in the triatholon (it had to be a highschool girl, jv boy, and a parent)...you competed against another team. Each team shoots a layup, free throw, and three pointer until they make it (I shot the layup, Randall shot free throw, and Dad shot the 3 pointer), and which ever team finishs first advances to the next round. Our team rocked (especially Dad, swishing the threes the first time almost every time!!) and we tied for third!

We've been going through Ephesians at Bible Study - it's great! There is SO much packed into those verses. This verse especially has really been convicting me...
"Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen." Ephesians 4:29
Definitely something I could work on.

We also had a really great discussion about what it means to imitate God - by what we say, wear, watch and think.

Seussical auditions are ever getting closer...I am SO. EXCITED. I'm singing "Vanilla Ice Cream" from She Loves Me. This song is so much fun. You should look it up...I would post a video, but I forgot how to.

I miss my friends in Houston and Bartlesville and Tulsa a whole, whoopin' bunch. :(

I went to Tulsa earlier this week with my friend Leah. We had a fun time shopping and eating cheesecake and swimming :)

I will really, really try to write more often. Really.

"God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.
Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea, though its waters roar and foam and mountains quake with their surging." Psalm 46:1-3

P.S.

I watched these two movies this week. More on these to come :)

I adore chick flicks

On Thursday, I found myself feeling rather poorly with a touch of internal pain that rendered me unmovable.

In other words, I got sick.

Humph.

Subsequently, I was plopped onto the couch with a stack of saltines, a fluffy blanket, and a t.v.

Therefore, I watched one of my most favorite movies EVER. I was introduced to it by my dear friend, Miss Amy, whom I am eternally indebted too. AHHHH. I love it.

What is it?



If you haven't watched this movie, you need to. At once.

For one, it's just plain awesome.

For two, Mr. Thorton/Richard Armitage is in it. This is a good enough reason in it's self.

OH MY GOODNESS.

I love Mr. Thorton. He's just the coolest guy in a book/movie EVER. Mr. Darcy is pretty awesome as well, buuut, Mr. Thorton is, um, yeah...



Gaaaaaaah!!!

Why does Mr. Thorton have to be a fictional character?

Anyhoo. Enough of such girly talk.

I hope all of you have a WONDERFUL week.

As our pastor closed the service this morning...

"May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit." - Romans 15:13
