My Life (In as many posts as it takes) #6

Again, I was going to show you something supper awesome: the rest of our house. And this time I have a better excuse then I just didn't make the time to upload the photos. Well, you see, I grabbed the camera and went out to start taking photos and of coarse this was the week that everyone had a project out and strewn all over the house. So yea, its pretty messy and I'm not sure you could see the house through the mess. ;) So, I will do that post next week when things are a bit cleaner. =) But today I'm going to share photos that really show off my love for randomness and humor. There's not a lot and I'm sorry about that but I had to dig through folders and folders of photos just to get these. =P 
I might give you an update on my life latter this week but today I just don't feel like it. Sorry. =P  


These are my magic marbles, there little round squishy things. I love them. =) 

That's Rebekkah and out cat Cuddles, I just thought it was cute. =) 

Mirror photo of me holding the camera.

What happens to my desk when the magic marbles are in sunlight.

I like my shoes, what can I say. ;) 

This is obviously the boys club at the park. All of them wistfully looking into the water. ;D

One day I put flowers all through Rebekkah's hair, it was so pretty. =) 

You may remember this photo in miniature from my first "My life" post, but I thought I'd share it up close with everyone. Go ahead and laugh, I am. =) 

I tried transferring words onto nail polish, it turned out really well if I do say so myself. =) 

Like what person thinks your going to stop on green? Or better yet, what person doesn't know to stop at the light? ;D


I would hate to know what went on this weekend with this bunny. ;)
Who am I kidding, of coarse I would. ;D
I hope you enjoyed that, I guess I should have done more but its been a hard day. =P

My life (In as many posts as it takes) #5

'Ello! I'm glad you could stop by today. =) First I'll start out by giving you a little bit of s update. 
I guess not a lot has happened; now that I'm done with Robin Hood I'm dedicating a lot more time to my Camp NaNo book, which I'm really enjoying because its just a for-fun book. =) 
 Also, if you could add us into your prayers that would be nice. Yesterday we went to help a friend move and we were snubbed and we don't know why. Kinda silly but I'm still hurt about it. Of coarse when I got home and was filliping through my bible I found every verse about loving people despite what they do to you, God has such an annoying way of telling you exactly what you need to know. ;) 
Today I'm going to share the rest of my room with you, I'm sorry for the grade of photos, I took them in about five minutes so I could get them uploaded on time to show you. =P I hope you enjoy it anyway! =) Oh and by the way, I share the room with my sister Rebekkah who is two years older then me, a denim and leather kind of girl and still completely awesome despite that fact. =D

Entering our room, I guess you can't really see it but on the door there is a sign that says "Caution: May Contain Nuts." =) 

My pretty shelf, with my plants. =) 

This may seem like a weird mix but Rebekkah and I love fancy glasses and this was the only place they fit.

My jewelry box and a lot of miscalculates stuff for decoration. =)

My friend wall, my favorite part of my room. =D I put pictures up of most of my friends, don't take it pursanlly if your not up there, it probably just means I haven't had a chance to print out a photo of you yet. =) 



Rebekkah's and my three favorite verses, Romans 8: 28-29 John 3: 16 and the fruts of the spirt. =) 

My little side of the book shelf. The M, is for holding notes and dad gave me the poster for Valentines day because he said it looked just like me. =D

My signed picture from an astronaut, Orian badge and Nasa charm

The bookshelf!!!!!! =D

My three... =) 




Fun stuff on top of the bookself. =)
