SaD NeWs AbOuT OuR "AfLaC" DuCkS

I have some sad news about our *sniffle*, ducks.... They haven't come home today. They left this morning and haveb't come back. So, it's not a big deal but still......poor ducks  :( I'm sure they'll be home soon!

OuR DuCkS!

We have recently added to our farm.... we've gotten two white ducks. They look like the Aflac duck. Has any one seen those commercials? "Aflac!" :)

This is the book I've been reading and a Silly Bandz on top of it. :)

Has any one noticed a few changes around my blog? i.e. the awesome Century Gothic font??? Well, the awesome Happilyeverafter7 did this makeover and I love it! Check out her blog Little Somethings.

Well, that's it for now. i'm in a rush right now. I'm getting ready for a friend's mini b-day celebration and I'm not quite ready. So toodles!

JuSt So YoU KnOw.....

Hello everyone! My blog is under construction right now! I know it looks kinda messy, it will go back to normal! Thanks!

ThAnKs MiRaNdA!!!!

Hello everyone! I'm having a perfectly idyllic afternoon, eating a popsicle, typing on my computer and listening to Glee. {I just love the music!}Oh! And having the electricity back on {will explain}

Well, my BFF Miranda came over to spend the night. We went to my church's VBS carnival and had a blast!

We both got face paintings and I got a red and white star

Miranda got two red hearts

We walked around and ate sugary stuff {one of them was this apple that was sliced into slices and had carmel poured into the middle and had nuts on top. YUM!} and talked. We did do an inflatable and the candy walk and the ring toss. It was fun. By the time we got into the car our face paintings were itching sooooo bad so we scratched them off :) and then we were like "ahhhhh"

Well, when we got home we were going to watch the Tony awards {that I had recorded} and dress up to watch them. It was all going to be good. But God had another plan.

Our power had been out all day. We went out to lunch and was going to go to the library for a reading program, but the library was closed {because of the power} and McDonald's was closed as well. So we went to the other closet McDonald's and had lunch. And I got a Mocha Frappe, it was sooo good!

After lunch we picked up Miranda.

So we were hoping the power would be back on when we got home, but it wasn't {it came back on in the middle of the night} So Miranda and I took goofy pictures and were blinded by the camera flash. Well, not literally blinded but ya know what I mean.

In the morning we went out and took pictures of me. Miranda was really good and I wanted to share them.

The heart thing is a Silly Bandz

Squint!

Shhhhhh....

Don't worry we were careful....

Car!

No, she's not dead. And no, she didn't get run over by a car!

No, I didn't either!

Oh! I also have a update about my braces! I only have 4 more weeks of having them on! It's kind of funny, but G gets her braces on 3 days before I get mine off   :)

GrEaT MuSiC I've GoTtEn ReCeNtAlLy

I've gotten some great music recently and I wanted to share what it was. Random? Yes, but I LOVE the music I got.  I have to admit, I got some of the Glee music and I L-O-V-E it! It is all so good!

From the Vol. 2 CD I got "Don't Rain On My Parade". Lea Michelle sings and it and is amazing! I also love the upbeat tempo of the song.

From Vol. 1 I got "Don't Stop Believin'" I love, love that song and they sing it really well! I have that song stuck in my head for days. But that's a good thing :)

I got "I Dreamed A Dream" from this CD. "Wow" is all I can say. Idina Menzel is on the song and is awesome {as usual} and it's a great version of the song!

I also got "Steal Your Rock N' Roll" from Memphis. It's a very upbeat song and very hum-able. :) It would be and is a great song to dance to.

I know I was soooo against this musical earlier but one song on the whole CD is worth listening to, and that is "Boulevard of Broken Dreams" I really like that song and it gets stuck in your head as well. That song is the only "clean" song on the whole CD I believe. {There's alot of swearing in that musical :( }

Well, that's my most recent listens, let me know if you like any of those songs or anything related to them!

What are you doing today? I have a appointment with the torturer of my poor mouth, aka the orthodontist. :I

But I hope they have new news about how much longer I need my braces on! :)

My WeEkEnD-Pt 3

On Monday we went to Rose City's Lake George for a late Father's Day present for Daddy. {Daddy loves fishing and he wanted to go as a family to Rose City and fish. But since we had a wedding to go to, we went on Monday} I had a bad attitude about going {I don't like fishing at all or getting up at 6:00 am to go fishing, which is what we did} but I had fun once we got there. And I took lots of pictures.

Lake George is surronded by cottages and houses people live in year round. It was very quiet when we went and it was a gorgeous day. I didn't go swimming, but  my siblings loved jumping out of the boat. I mostly waded. And I read a great book. Which was The Borrowed House by Hilda van Stockum. It is a great read!

My hair-do

It's two pigtails that are twisted into the pony tail

While we were fishing, G and Mommy went to a bakery in Rose City and got some doughnuts. They were sooo good!

Lily pads

Daddy driving the boat back to the beach

This was a little road by the beach and reminded me of something from Anne Of Green Gables.

Me!

A Flag at the beach

Wendy from Peter Pan did a great job of sewing my shadow to me. :)

This is my sunshine friend, she always is around when it is sunshine-y out!

This is a closed restaraunt by the boat launch. It looked really sad. :(

I love being in Northern MI and looking over a hill and seeing trees and more hills. It feels like you're on top of the world!

Every time we go fishing at George Lake we like to get ice cream at this one convience center. The center is right across the street from a national park and we've gone camping a few time there with Miranda's family and my Grandama. But it's not very popular because of the fact there are no showers or running water.

I got the Orange-Pinapple flavor. It was okay, but I don't want to get it again.

We all got single scoop icecream cones, but they were HUGE!

N dropped her cone onto her skirt. Whoops.

And M ate out of the sides of the cone and got ice cream all over her hands!

Can you guess what flavor she got?

The convience center has a put-put course next to it and the colors in those things are really nice.

That's it for the weekend series, I hope you enjoyed them!

My WeEkEnD- Pt. 2

Hi! As the other post is uploading pictures I'll write Pt. 2. On Sunday we went to a wedding, and it was so much fun! I took about 100 pictures there. We all had a lot of fun and I wore my new dress I made.

I made the 1910s Tea Gown from Sense and Sensibilty. I love that dress!

Kleenex handy for the ceremony....

Here come the bride maids and the flower girl and the ring bearer.....

The cake. A lady we know from church made this herself, it looked amazing!

D loved the fountian in the cake. I was like "Good, you can figure out how to do it for my cake!" lol

I love this picture of Dustin and Michele eating the cake and Dustin's little brother looking in at them. :)

Dancing........

I didn't know what to do, so I did my own little thing, I had fun. But, I might've looked weird.

Dancing w/ T during the song "You Belong With Me"

I had a lot of fun and it was a great wedding. We were all so tired by the time we left {which was at 10:00 pm} But we got up early on Monday...... {to be continued in part 3}
