My New Blog...

Yesterday I started a new blog that's called A Girl's Journey with Jesus. Abby is going to remodel this blog and probably re-name it so that it is her own blog.... Well, that's all for now...

It's a Wednesday!!!!!!!!!!

I always like Wednesdays. I guess it is because we usually have a full day of school and then i feel like i actually got something done. But today was different. We had some good friends, the W's over and played with them this morning. We played a game called Bohnanza. Yes, it is a strange game about farming beans. It doesn't sound very fun but i will tell you that it is VERY fun. Then i got school done this afternoon. I actually got all of my school done from like 2:15 to 5:00. That is so unusual. I keep saying that i can't wait to finish school so that i can start it again. That might be because next year it is just going to be me and mom! Leah and Elizabeth will be doing High school and Naomi will be doing Preschool. I am going to be learning about Ancient History. (Greeks, Romans, you get the idea.)

Hannah has not been feeling good lately so please keep her in your prayers. Today she was very grumpy because it was raining and she could not go outside and blow bubbles (not that she actually does, but you know). She goes outside many times a day and otherwise she usually watches a video.

Well hope you have had a GREAT day! (hope nothing happened in Missouri) i heard that there was a tornado warning but i never did find out any more.

A Story, A Birthday, and A blog redo...

Okay...so here is the long overdue post that you have been waiting for. We have been CRAZY BUSY! The other day a dinner Naomi told us this story... Here is the shortened version

Naomi- "There are these Nar-nac Alligators that live in Australia. They live in the rain forests. They eat corn, grapes, peas, watermelon, and insects, oh and don't forget the green beans! They drink milk and water in sippy cups and eat the cups afterwords. "
I asked her- "Where do they get there milk? "
Naomi- "Well Abby, they get it from a cow. The cow just puts it in the cup for them."
Naomi- "They are red, yellow, and green but they look blue. They are very funny."

Well i should get to bed soon...i still have school this week but next week is the first week of Summer break!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yeah!!!
This summer Leah is going to have her own blog...i will be renaming this one and it will be mine. When she gets her blog i will post a link and everything like that but mine will most likely not be redone for a while.

Also, last Friday was Leah's birthday!!!!!!!!!! She is now 13!
I will try to post this weekend as it is going to be Elizabeth's birthday and she is going to be 16 on Saturday!!!! I wanted to let you know because i am not sure if i am going to have time to post.
You will probably not see any more pictures for awhile because i don't really take the pictures, Leah does, but she will post them on her blog.

Well have a good night!

Everything






We have been busy lately between a VERY fun trip to Missouri, soccer, gymnastics, a visit to Camp Roger, school, cleaning, a birthday party this weekend, and life. It seems as if everything is a blur. Lately I have been really noticing God's handiwork through all the new life this spring. It seems like everything is just praising God. It reminds me of Psalm 150.

Praise the LORD
Praise God in his sanctuary;
Praise him in his mighty heavens.
Praise him for his for his acts of power;
Praise him for his surpassing greatness.
Praise his with the sounding of the trumpet,
Praise his with the harp and lyre,
Praise his with the tambourine and dancing,
Praise him with the strings and flute,
Praise him with the clash of cymbals,
Praise him with resounding cymbals,
Let everything that has breath praise the Lord.
Praise the LORD.


It seems as if the psalmist is trying to get a message across to us... PRAISE THE LORD!!!
