Northern Ireland

I just thought that I'd share some pictures of Northern Ireland with you guys. Its a really beautiful country. I went there, with my family, when I was about 3 years old and I hope to go back someday soon. My grandpa, on my dad's side, is from Ireland, which makes me about 1/3 Irish, so hope you enjoy these landscapes.

Well, lets see. This week we have VBS and I think thats going well. Yesterday Bobby, Emily, and I had our drama, so that was fun. A little odd, but interesting.

Man! July is filling up so fast! After VBS is done we have one week free and then Bobby's off to camp. The week after that I go to camp and then the weekend after that we're going to Niagara Falls. It'll all be fun, but busy at the same time.

Well, I can't really think of anything else to post about, so I guess I'll go. Hope everyone has a great day. Post later (Lord willing)

I'm SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HAPPY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Today was a pretty normal day. I went into the library to work from 11 to 1, so that went well. I had to sign people up for the summer reading program which is fun, when there are people to sign up. I have to go back in tomorrow too, but this time I get to work on masks for the parade. That should be fun. After I got home I ate lunch and then took Copper for a walk/run. I think my sweat glands were broken because sweat was like pouring down my face. :p It felt good, though, to get my heart going. After I got back I finished a letter that I had started writing to Jason, played the piano for a bit, and then ate dinner. That has pretty much been my day so far. Tomorrow will probably be about the same. Well I guess I'll go for now. Post later (Lord willing)

Well, today I went strawberry picking with Kristen A. That was quite interesting. I had a lot of fun. We got bored after awhile, so we started rhyming words. We were talking about the dumbest things. :) Lots of fun. Really. I know you're probably wondering about the title of this post. Its the name of the street that we had to drive on. We kept making fun of it, because its hard to pronounce. I think it sounds like a German chocolate. Anyways, tonight is the girls night out. Yay! I can't wait. Its going to be fun. I think we're going to have a big bunch of girls! Well I better run. Post later(Lord willing)

Yesterday my brothers and I came over to my grandparents house to stay the night 'till Sunday. That's where I am right now. Yesterday my grandparents took the boys and I to Geauga Lake. I had a blast! We did the bumper cars, rode the little kid's roller coaster, went on the Haybailer, and the log ride. Then for some odd reason, Bobby wanted to go on the BIG roller coasters and he wanted me to come with him. I thought he was out of his mind. I've never really been on any of the really big coasters, so I didn't know if I would like them or not. Well first I wanted to go on the Double Loop, so Bobby, my grandpa, and I all went on that. That's the first time I've ever been on a loop. I had a blast! In the end Bobby and I went on almost all the coasters in the park(well Bobby went on most of them, I didn't go on any of the wooden ones). My head and stomach were kind of mixed-up by the time we were done. I had so many adrenaline rushes my head was spinning. One of my favorite rides is the Scrambler, but nobody in my family likes the spinning rides. I think my Aunt Krisi might be the only one. Right now the boys are walking around the neighborhood buying junk at garage sales. Oh, my parents are going to love that. After lunch we're going to go swimming at the Y, so that should be fun. I can't wait for Monday! It should be a fun girls night out. We haven't really done anything like that before. Should be interesting. Well I'm running out of things to post, so I guess I'll go for now. Post later(Lord willing)

HELP!

I'm running out of things to post. Give me some ideas. PPPLLLEEEAAASSSEEE!!! I guess I could talk about how great MICHIGAN is, but I don't think I would have too many friends left. :) So help me out here. Your suggestion might be picked. OOOOO! Doesn't that sound exciting! :)

AW!!!! Isn't that cute!!!!

Footprints in the Sand

By: Mary Stevenson, 1936

One night I dreamed I was walking along the beach with the Lord. Many scenes from my life flashed across the sky.

In each scene I noticed footprints in the sand. Sometimes there were two sets of footprints, other times there was one only.

This bothered me because I noticed that during the low periods of my life, when I was suffering from anguish, sorrow or defeat, I could see only one set of footprints, so I said to the Lord,

"You promised me Lord, that if I followed you, you would walk with me always. But I have noticed that during the most trying periods of my life there has only been one set of footproints in the sand. Why, when I needed you most, have you not been there for me?"

The Lord replied, "The years when you have seen only one set ot footprints, my child, is when I carried you."
