It has been a long time since I have been able to sit down and write a post. I am very sorry! I miss bloging, a lot! And I miss reading all of your blogs!
But any who I wanted to wish all of you a very merry Christmas eve and a very Merry Christmas! I hope you enjoy opening up presents and receiving the wonderful gifts from others. I hope you enjoy all of the lovely, tasty food, I hope your blessed by being with dear family and friends, I hope that you share your love- Christ's love with others. But most important of all I hope that you will keep in your hearts the true meaning of Christmas. Remembering Jesus, in Mary's womb, and then in the manger. Thanking him for choosing to come to earth and be born unto us. Being our Savior.
Hey everyone! Hope your day is going great so far!
This is something I want to start doing. I want to do musical Mondays. Were I post a song that I like or a song that I think would be encouraging to others. Also to make your Mondays a little better and to get a good song stuck in your head for the day.
Now I will only post Christian music. I feel very strongly about listening to Christian music. Christian music is just about all I listen to. I am very strict about the music I listen to because I know how the words effect us! I prefer worship music because I believe that is the best music- music that draws us closer in our relationship with God. But I don't just listen to worship music. I like a lot of music. And for me It's more about the words than the tune of the song. If the words are really good than I'm ok with it. I understand that everyone doesn't like worship music and I am totally ok with that! God uses all types of music to minister to people! For instance my younger brother likes christian wrap music and my older brother sometimes like screams music. So I am not closed minded! ;)
Any who, I hope you are encouraged by these songs. Also I'd like to do this every Monday but I don't always have time and access to our computer so I wont be able to do it every Monday, sadly. Hopefully this will change because I am saving up for a laptop! I'm really excited to get it! :)
So The song I want to post to day is Promises by Sanctus real.
This song is a really good song when stuff in your world is really hard! Hold onto His promises!
Hope you enjoy this song -it's one of my favorites! :)
We all have those thing about us that are silly and unique that make us who we are. Those thing that you sometimes go ''ohhhh I cant believe I just did that!". The things that make us different from everyone else. Those things are not stupid they are unique they make up part of who we are! So if your one who is embarrassed by those things about you- don't be!! Embrace them and laugh at yourself!
. So here are some silly things about me:
I love to clip my toe nails and my finger nails when they get long!
I don't like meat!
One of my favorite places to sing is in the shower.
When I'm in my bed before I fall asleep I have to take my socks off. I usually cant fall asleep with them on.
I like chap-stick and I wear it but then I take it off soon cause I don't like the way it feels on my lips.
When the paint on my finger nails starts chipping off I have to remove it all off!
I love when I'm sitting somewhere and my feet don't touch the ground so I can dangle my feet!
I usually read my school out loud to myself.
I still love barbies. But I don't play with them because I don't have a younger sister who has them and wants me to play with her. : (
I love the smell of freshly cut grass
I twirl and spin all around the house all the time.
I love a clean house.
I want my brothers and sisters!!!
I love skirts that twirl out when you spin!!!
I love redheads
I love to stir food, to mix food up when baking and cooking.
I am always making messes!!
I love to vacuum.
I get excited when the clouds get dark! ( just like my mom does!)
I have a candy wrapper collection
I love to put babies asleep and make them happy when their fussy.
I love jumping in puddles and dancing in the rain!!
I don't like to shower or take baths but don't worry I do!
I love to go bare foot!!
When I go to bed I sometimes rap myself up in my blankets like a cocoon
Well there ya have it those are some silly things of me- that I could think of. I'll probably keep thinking of more all day long. I'm sure you can relate to some of those. And that is cool!
Hurricane Sandy is affecting a lot of people right now. For those who haven't heard hurricane Sandy is on the Atlantic ocean side of the states. She is hitting all of those states. From Maine to South Carolina. People have been getting hit by this hurricane since yesterday. Some places are getting snow others are getting rain and are flooding. Others loosing power and others loosing there homes. Some states got it a lot harder than others. We all need to keep everyone in our prayers.
Here she is!
This is in Virginia

Here's what Hurricane Sandy has done to these different states. It was VERY windy and rainy last night where I live, but thankfully we didn't loose our power nor did it flood. Our crick that is right next to our yard was to the brim and flowing fast but thankfully it didn't overflow. The damage is not much to our house. We are truly thankful! By the wind last night we were concerned that our trees that are right above our house, were going to fall on us. They didn't! We will continue to pray those who were affected badly by the storm. Were you affected by it? I sure hope not!

Americans are big about our coffee! Coffee lovers drink lots of coffee. Most people drink coffee everyday. We all have a favorite coffee drink or flavor. The average coffee-drinker in the US drinks over 1200 cups a year. That's a lot of coffee! But that's easily done since their are dunkin donuts, Starbucks, McDonald and so many other stores that sell coffee everywhere.
I never liked coffee much but as I staring drinking frappes and liking the frappes more and more I was soon converted into a coffee lover. I love coffee now! So to make you drool and want a good cup of coffee her are some pictures. :)

We had lots of fun sliding down the slides, swinging on the swings, and monkeying around on the rest of the playground equipment. I brought my camera and got a lot a good pictures. :) Here are some pictures.
