swegrodirsme

I am TIRED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We worked in the backyard ALL day! I had to haul cement blocks from the backyard up to the front yard, next to the garage. The hardest part was pulling them up the hill, but it wasn't too hard. Thankfully I had the wagon to help me. My mom also helped by pushing the wagon while I pulled. Yo amo mi madre. :) We also planted grass in the back corner where everything got torn up. It was really hot! A shower has never felt so good. I was all sticky, sweaty, smelly, dirty, and hot. I feel a lot better now. We've been camping out in our backyard for the past 3 days and I think its finally taking its toll on me. My sides are hurting from lying on the ground, it feels like I have huge bruises on my thighs. I guess I just have to toughen up. :) School ends Friday. YAY! I can't wait. Only 4 more days left. Ok well better get going. Post later. (Lord willing)
HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sunday, May 28, 2006

This weekend my dad's brothers,sister, and parents all came up with their families to help rebuild the retaining wall in our backyard. Becca, Hannah, and I camped out in a tent in the backyard with the boys next to us in another tent. My Uncle Ed also camped out back there with his son, my cousin, Sam. You know, I have not once ever camped out in my backyard. Isn't that sad? Anyways, I really enjoyed it. Today I feel really tired and my muscles hurt, but I have to say its really a beautiful day. Yesterday my mom, Aunt Crystal, Becca, and I all had to go watch some kids during a wedding. One of the babies, Abigail, attached herself to me, so I couldn't move five feet away or she would start howlin'. She is one of the cutest babies that I have ever seen! Tomorrow we get off of course, so thats nice. We get out of school June 2. YAY! I'm am so ready to be done with school. It'll be nice to wake up in the mornings and not have to do anything. I can't wait. Well I better run. Post later (Lord willing)

I love this show! Nice hair Ty! :)
Today I had to go to the dentist and have a filling. :( Well they gave me two doses of novacaine, so the left side of my mouth/cheek is totally numb. My mom said that I looked like I had a stroke, because the left side of my mouth was drooping. I had such a hard time talking. I think its finally starting to wear off. YAY!!!!! Ok, well I better get going. Post later (Lord willing)

"For I know the plans that I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."

The LORD didn't promise me
that I would never fall...
...but HE did PROMISE
HE would always be there
to LIFT ME UP again.

HOPE

".....Hope in God....."
Psalm 43:5
Wow. I've been doing a lot of that. I have to keep reminding myself that I have to hope in God and not in others. Lots of the time hoping in others just leads to disappointment, but hoping in God is very promising. It doesn't mean that we get what we hope for, but God still answers it one way or another. Maybe not the way we were thinking, but in His own way. That, my friend, happens to be the best way. I also keep remembering this verse.
"Delight yourself also in the Lord; and He will give you the desires of your heart".
Psalm 37:4

WWWHHHHHHOOOOO

WHHHHOOOO! I finally got the internet back! YAY! Its been out for about a month. Lots has happened since then. We went up to Patmos last weekend and had a blast. We got up at 6:30am, had breakfast at 7am, and started working at about quarter till 8. Lots of fun. I shoveled mulch, spray painted a fence, burned cardboard, built scaffolding, played with cement (that was interesting), and did a few other things. I love hard work. Builds character. :) School is almost done! YAY! I can't wait for the summer. No more spanish! One thing I was disappointed about, though, was that I miss my championship soccer game. Oh ya, this season we were 5 and 1. That means we won five games and lost one. So the week before last we played one game and won, which meant that we had to play one more game in order to stay in first. We played our second game and WON! So last Saturday was our championship game. Bobby and I, along with one other girl, couldn't be there. Which meant that we didn't have any fullbacks (defense). In the end we won and are officially the champs. I was so excited! Well I best be going. I've got some more stuff to do. Post later (Lord willing)
