Ahhhh lovely night~

I made supper, everyone is satisfied, school is done for the day and I did the dishes. And I just got in from playing a game of soccer with Rebekah, Silas, and a neighbor. Looking to be a pretty good night. :)
But now my feet are dirty. It's weird. I don't like my feet being dirty, but I hate wearing shoes, so they always are.
Earlier we were all sitting in the living room and suddenly Rebekah remarks "Huh! Typical Toddy evening."
Me:What?
Rebekah: You sitting on the couch going "My finger hurts", and Silas sitting on the computer going "Jump! Jump! Noooo!"
Me: Hahaha So true!
But just to set the record straight I was NOT complaining, I was simply teasing Rebekah because it was her fault my finger was cut. (A story that has to be told in person) lol

unp,

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times...

We went to see A Tale of Two Cities last night, and it was amazing!( As to be expected from a Fine Linen production though right?) It was dark and deep yet comical at the same time. Different from other plays they have done. I think my favorite characters were Mrs. Pross and Sydney. I loved the big laugh scene at the end  right before... Well I don't want to ruin it for those of you who haven't read the book or seen the play yet.
Sometimes I like to look at the background people, and they were always "in-character" as Mrs. Nisbett would say.A definite must-see.
 Well all I can say for now for Ben expects me to cook him dinner. 

Off to be a good sister,
  
Along with the rest of  my school I have been getting my vocabulary done also. And I just learned this interesting word.
Barnburner
It's pronounced just like it sounds, I know funny right, but it actually means:
Something that is highly exciting or impressive 
Though I guess burning down a barn might have a slight thrill huh?

Just more of my life




Just got home from an awesome few days at Ashlee's house. Always fun. Playing and taking care of Louie and Sabrina. Louis is saying sentences now! Well, more complete sentences anyways.It's so funny to listen to him talk. And Sabrina? She is just as lazy and quiet as ever. lol She is lazy as in she absolutely refuses to walk. And doesn't talk for some reason. I have learned what a few of her grunts mean though. 

Tonight Rebekah and I might go to our cousins while mom and the rest of the family girls go on a girls night out. Should be fun. 

And now I must go get caught up on school. Does it sound like that's all I ever do? It might be because it is. Yes, the best way to explain my life lately is 
scholar/ blogger/ aunt. Yep, that just about sums it up. :)










Unp,

Great Wolf Lodge

Wow! I haven't been on since Easter? Sorry about that. Busy busy busy.
I thought I'd get on and tell you all about my crazy weekend at Great Wolf Lodge with my Aunt and cuz.
Well lets see we got on the buss at eight Saturday morning, That was an interesting experience. My first time on a buss. Then we got there about one. But our room wasn't ready so we went and swam at the water park for a little while. Yes! A indoor water park! Pretty fun. They had some awesome slides. I tried to take a picture of them coming down the slide and yeah..... you can see how it turned out.
It clouded up my lens! So no pictures of the water park.
So then we took all our luggage up to our room, then went and swam some more, Then we went up to our room and got changed and went back down to the water park where they had a duck race! They had a duck for each room number and they sent them down the slide and who's ever duck won got a prize. Unfortunately ours didn't win. It was still fun to watch though.
And then we danced to a DJ in the lobby. I'm serious! They had a dance party. I think every kid in the lodge was down there. Pretty fun to watch.
And then pretty worn out we went upstairs to hit the hay. Then Sunday pretty much the same as before swam and got ready to go. And now I am home taking care of Sabrina and very tired.
Here are a few more pics:


                                           My aunt and cousin






                                         We had fun at the arcade too.

Well Now I must move on to more "must get done" things like school. Hope your Monday is going great!

unp,

(Edit: Wow I just realized I used "pretty" like five times in three sentences.lol)

Aunthood~~

Well Jenn and Tommy got back Friday and now they are at their home.  And so are the kids.
When the kids first came it was weird having cheerios on the floor, a baby monitor in my room, and a high chair in our dining room. But now it feels weird not having them.I miss the little guys already. I suppose it's normal though, having spent so much time with them lately. Even if I did get annoyed having to get up at seven, even on the weekends.
I LOVE being an aunt. And I wouldn't trade it for anything! ;)

Although this isn't from Jocelyn or Malachi,It is from another little nephew:

Louis: Marmy! Marmy! (my mom)
Mom: What?
Louis: I taw a horsey!
Mom: Really? What color was the horsey?
Louis: It green.

Haha they crack me up all the time.

TTFN,
Though no one can go back and make a brand new start, ANYONE can start from NOW and make a brand new ending. ~~ Carl Bard

Good Friday

Mark 15:

33 Now when the sixth hour had come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour.34 And at the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, “Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?”which is translated, “My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?”[f]

37 And Jesus cried out with a loud voice, and breathed His last.

38 Then the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. 39 So when the centurion, who stood opposite Him, saw that He cried out like this and breathed His last,[g] he said, “Truly this Man was the Son of God!”

Wow, I actually have time to post!

So reaching back into the archives I found a very dusty post from like two months ago. And here I am to get it posted.
Well you remember I said I was going to pick up jewelry making? Well I completed my first bracelet a long time ago. And just hadn't had time to post it. So here it is.


I think it turned out pretty well. For a first timer. Well I knew my break was too good to be true. For the baby cries. Off to take car of him.
