so it's been a while but I thought a list of things that signify living in gamecock territory is long over due:
1. Walmart announces over the intercom for the employees that Carolina beat Clemson
2. Books a Million sells a carolinaopoly game
3. You wear shorts on December 22
4. The lights at the zoo spout fake snow at the entry
Home sweet home!

It's Christmas Time!!! Praise the Lord Jesus came so many years ago to save His people just
as his name says, Matthew 1:21

Merry Christmas everybody!!!

Monday night, 8:30, daddy's so sweet brings me popcorn. So I've got three president traces left for my history class. Ok, so I think I've probably been doing this a tad bit too long, but um the pictures of these guys, their last words, and uh, some interesting tidbits about them are pretty interesting. Makes you wonder what they were like, they look like nice guys, or out of a British children's book, or kinda stern and scary. Just some thoughts. I always seem to blog about history so here's for something that's a bid different: had some girlfriends over and watched A Cinderella Story, just thought about cinder ella, cinders that's kind of weird I bet there's an explanation for that. Anyway that was tuns of fun took funny pictures, had pizza and cake. Nothin' like hangin' out with friends. Well that's all for now.

Saturday morning, 9:00, pancakes now that's a pretty good morning! Not much new. Heres a few more Headlisms to brighten and enlighten your day! I'm so excited I found out they are just pancakes they are CHOCOLATE CHIPS!!!!! HOW EXCITING!!

"You don't have to consult to choose green or red jello in the cafeteria line." (understanding a verse in Proverbs)

"Human beings are driven by their hatreds and their loves..."

Related to the Corrupt Bargain, it happened in "a smoked filled backroom with glasses of whiskey too and probably liberally filled."

"Beef and beer." (how the Republicans started doing politcal campaigns with free BBQ)

"Be like the bee who takes only the honey and leaves the rest behind." (related to all these Headlisms)

The Crocodile Hunter passed away. I'm speechless. All I can say is I'm glad God listens even when we don't know what to say and the Holy Spirit intercedes for us. God gives hope.

Ok, so it's been like forever since I've posted...I guess I go through phases of blogging and not. Anyway, school has started, about three weeks into it and I'm still figuring things out. Got all my summer reading done before school though, that's a plus. Yeah, not too much new. Sadly my bro is leaving on Wednesday for Oregon, 'till about Christmas. He's excited though which is good. Other than that, not much new it's still pretty warm here, we've had rain last week. Well until next time!! And to my bro I hope you have a great year, we'll miss you!!

Scalding water. It's hot. I went to water the flowers and as usual for a Carolina summer, when I turned on the water to our black hose that was sitting in the sun I had to wait a minute or too and let it get cold so I could water the flowers with cool water. It's amazing!! Anyway so I started The Immortal today by Angela Elwell Hunt. Just through the first chapter but so far so good. Will let ya know how it goes! The days of summer draw to an end.

So I recommend A Tale of Two Cities and The Killer Angels. Those were two of my summer reading books. The two cities one is a mystery/romance and the Angels one is about the Battle of Gettysburg, really gets into the thoughts of the soldiers. Still doing a bit of summer reading I better finish up since school starts next week!

Well, there's a week left of summer, school starts Aug. 8...got to go to the beach again today! So much fun! Water was once again awesome, and it was extra hot today I think, lol. Anyway, have a great week!

The beach...what more can I see, ok I can say more but still it pretty much says it all in itself. We went to Isle of Palms yesterday and it was tons of fun. I got splotchy burns, the water was a great temp. and even though I did summer reading stuff and it was windy I'm glad I got to do it there. On the way back we got milk shakes and had pizza and mystery shows at home. Now there's a good lazy summer day!

Fun with VBS and ok summer reading. I'm still not sure what I'll write about in my summary but I have an idea, it's not going to be a breeze but I'll get 'r done. Anyway that's about it!

Congrats to Italy!! Quite a game it was! Dad and I measured the house, quite an interesting task. By the way, it's spider and their webs season. We got to witness a very green, active lizard have dinner, not just any dinner, but the moth specialty I believe. He fell out of a treen then climbed back up. I would have a pic of it on here but by the time I had my camera with batteries that worked, he was gone. Pretty gross, I know, but hey lizards have to eat to live I guess. Intead of the lizard pic, here's a pic of a gorgeous rose. No words can give God credit enough for all He does, will do, and has done! I'm so glad He's in charge!

World Cup match is going on right now so I best be headed downstairs to see how it's going. Sadly America may not get too excited. This is it for another 4 years sadly. Oh well, it was fun while it lasted. Have an awesome day!

I'll let ya know how it goes!

Ok, it's been a long while. Nothin' too new, saw Pirates of the Carribean Dead Man's Chest late, late last night with my brother and friends. I have to say, was one of the best sequels I've seen! Anyway have a great week!
