~New Years Day~

   HAPPY NEW YEARS! :) :) Wow. It's New Years Eve....This year has gone by so fast. I have to say I am thankful for many things. So many wonderful things have happened. I'm first of all thankful for family :) They've been just as great as they always have been. I'm thankful for great friends. Old and New. I'm thankful for moving to MI, yes, I love MI. I miss everyone back in IL, but MI has been great. It's been a blessing serving my grandparents here. I'm thankful for basketball. That's been a big thing this fall. Wow, learning a new sport is quite fun. I'm getting better and better and can now officially dribble through my legs. YAY! :)
   Anddd so for this lovely new years eve day we went out to chili's for lunch. We're going to have sundays, and watch movies and play games! I can't wait. I love staying up late. Although, I've stayed up till 12 often enough, I guess the real privilege is my parents stay up with me. As I've said before I'm a late night person NOT a morning person. And guess what the bad part about new years eve is? IT'S THE DEADLINE FOR NEW YEARS RESOLUTIONS. AHHHHHHH! I'm giving up pop for 6months this year. I'm dreading it, I'm admitting. I hope I make it. xD But yeah......coke.......pop.....every time I go to out to eat, I'll be getting lemonade...the very thought scares me. It's okay. I will survive.
  Anywhoo, isn't this amazing? I'm actually posting within three days of each other. I'm very proud of myself. I've failed across the past two months. xD haha. I did what, two christmas posts? HAHA. Wow. I can look back and laugh now. I will try to do better in this coming year.

{Sorry this is posted sideways. I couldn't get it to work. Well, all can say is I've always had weird ideas! xD}

  Lastly I'm thankful for my wonderful savior :) He's shown me many things this year and he truly does miracles. :D
  I hope you all have wonderful new years eve's. And I love hearing from you. I miss you all <3

Hope your day is awesome

At least I blogged now right? :D Haha. I know right this is really sad. Anywhoo, I can say HAPPY NEW YEAR! HA! I said it first...I think :)
    I can't share much by pictures. I didn't get to take a million pictures which I was planning, but here were a few :)

{OOHHHHH yes. Over Christmas guess what? In Chicago IN IMAX I saw Mission Impossible Four. Our group went late it was so much fun. I've been waiting quite awhile. Movie rating? 5/5 :) O YES!}

{We have witnesses that on the way we were....very quiet xD}

{Shopping in Chicago with my Dad, Donna, Mom, and me. :) Memories BUILT}

  And those are small parts :) We went to Chicago with the family a few days before Christmas. We were at the Palmer House Hilton! IT was SO much FUN! I love the palmer house. :) Before Christmas on the 19th I had a Basketball game and I scored! I scored a two pointer and a free throw. I was so HAPPY :) :) On Christmas we opened presents and went to Church! It was FUNN! :) I got dutch blitz which is awesome. Happy memories. And a bunch of other things. Christmas is SO AmAZING! :) I can't believe it's passed, can you?

OMYBANANAS!

   ALRIGHTY!
I'm so sorry I haven't blogged. OMYBANANAS :) It's been forever!!! THANKSGIVING IS OVER :) Well first of all I want to say what I'm thankful for...

 Three main things. I could go on forever about things I'm thankful for :)

{First of all, MY LORD and SAVIOR who died for me on Calvary. Over these weeks he's really shown himself to me and I'm thankful for that. And what great timing :) On Thanksgiving week!}

{My Family -My Parents. They have been wonderful this year. I'm so thankful for both of them. They've both encouraged me so much! I love them :)}

{Family-Donna :) She is AWESOME. I love her so much. And I've been thankful for her since I knew her.}

{And the rest of em'. Look at those darling faces! I'm thankful for them everyday :) They're all blessings.}

{And Friends :) Yes, Friends are something to be thankful for. I'm thankful for a special one :D}

{Friends-I'm thankful to be able to have fellowship with friends. Even when I don't get to see them a lot :)}

     Thanksgiving was a lot of fun :) We had turkey, green beans, rice, salad, and mash potatoes. It was the best! FOOD is so good. We had family in to :) It was fun.
     Now Christmas is COMING!!! I'm SO excited. We have our decorations, lights AND tree up. Pictures to come soon :) :) :) I LOVE CHRISTMAS.
      What I like is when everything is DECORATED. First of all, things get decorated. For example COKE:

{Do you see???? ITS WHITE. I was totally stunned. It's Christmas COKE :) Nothin' is better. There is polar bears and everything :)} 

      Second thing is like is, is that places are decorated. Sadly, no picture, but like Chicago is decorated. All the window scenes at Macy's, the big tree and Santa's on the street. Also, houses are decorated. Lights, trees, plates, and everything!!! YAY! :) :)
      And people are decorated.

{Hehehehe Santa's comin' to town}

    So Christmas is wonderful. Christ is BORN! I can't wait!
   And if your wondering, Life has been BUSY. Wednesdays are evilllllll :) Just kidding. They're busy. I'm doing a skit at awana. I'm SO NERVOUS pray for me. ALSO, basketball is NUTSY :) hahahaha I'm meeting new friends. It's been awesome! Sprints are evil, but I'm getting better. HAHA. We've played two games and have a game on Saturday. We're playing crossroads! How exciting :)
    So anywhoo, pray for me. My life is very busy and I've been leaning on God :) Pray for my Grandad to, because he's been sick and having a lot of appointments.
   I hope your doing well :D I love emails and would love to keep up with all of you :D
Hope your day is awesome. Hope your Christmas is amazing <3

~The best Christmas CD~

             Merry Christmas!

Hahaha, it feels really funny saying that, but I am not ashamed xD Anyways, my sincere apologies for not blogging. Everything is down right busy. Life is going on and on and on, and by God's grace I'm getting through it. :) 

  Well, this is my Christmas blogging month, and I am going to start with my favorite Christmas CD. Now I realize that everyone has differing opinions on the subject, but I wanted to share with you my favorite Christmas CD. 

   My favorite Christmas CD is: 

 AVALON! JOY! :D 

Alright, well first of all, it's my favorite Christmas CD, because we've had it since I was at least Isaac's age and even longer. Yes, although, we've switched from CD, to buying it on itunes, having it on the computer, etc. We've managed to keep it around. So every Christmas growing up, when we decorated the tree and put out decorations, we had Avalon playing. I remember that it was my favorite CD, because it was 'adult' Christmas music and because it was joyful and happy. And even from a young age I understood all the songs. 

 The second reason I like is because really looking at the CD, and all the songs, it is a very well-put-together CD. It has classic Christmas songs, like The first noel, Angels we have heard on high, and joy to the world. Yet, they put their own twist to it and it really sounds fun and jazzy :) It also has the song "Don't save it all for Christmas day." I love that song! It's one of my favorites. There are great versions of it. But the two songs that I'd have to say I like the most are "We are the Reason" and "Light a Candle." They are both beautiful songs! I would definitely recommend them. The whole CD just has a great combination of songs and I will always have it as a part of my Christmas!!!

~Hope your days are awesome, hope your Christmas is amazing <3

~Hello Christmas~

Hello :)

SO, I know it's not even thanksgiving yet. BUT, it's time for Christmas posts. My family has this tradition of starting Christmas decorating early :) Usually we wait till this weekend, but I am starting even earlier. If you want to know the truth, I was listening to Christmas music in October. But now I just have to do Christmas posts. First of all, let's rewind to last Christmas :)

{Christmas Decorations}

{Chicago friends :)}

{Good times}

{Sledding! A must-do at Christmas time}

~NOVEMBER~

WOW. It's NOVEMBER already. This is just unexpected xD lol. Well good news, CHRISTMAS IS SOON :) We're already getting our christmas music out. I can't wait for christmas!!! Anywhoo, life is so busy. Basketball is just crazy. I go to practice Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday :) And then usually Saturday games, but not this week. My first game is on the fifteenth :) SO excited :) But for now I'm just trying to learn the basics and the plans. My first basketball practice was really hard but I made it alive! The others have been good to. Just trying to keep up!! And I think I'm doing well so that's good. :) :) :) School is school. I've been doing well, but it takes up a lot of energy :P I love spanish :) es mi favorita (I prolly said that wrong lol :) Andddd that's what iv'e been doing. :) :) :) I love being at my Grandparents house!! It's been fun living near them. I LOVEEEEEEE our house in MI. I have a great place to practice basketball and everything. Golf cart rides never get boring :)
I hope your day is awesome!

~Officially Moved~

{photo credit: createdbydonnablog.com edited by me}

   Well its official. Our house is SOLD! I was really surprised it sold :) Two people wanted it. I was like woahman! lol :) Anywhoo, there isn't much to talk about I guess. School is school. I practiced basketball like two hours today, I'm not kidding. I have practice on monday goodness, I'm so nervous. It was so funny the coach was like, "you know she's fast, blah blah blah, but she didn't know quite what she was doing out there." I think that's so funny. Despite being good for basketball I really didn't know about I was doing on the court! HAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAH i really think that's funny. . Anywhoo, I just got my forms to fill out, I'm SUPER excited. I'm just bouncing off the ceiling. I hope i do well. I still don't know what team I'm on, whether jr. or v. I don't think theres a JV. Anywhoo, it really doesn't matter. I'm not like really good or anything. I'm sure all of you could figure out the pro's and cons of being on a varsity team and not being good. It's fine though. It's my freshmen year so I've got time. That's whats goin on here ;)
~I hope your day is awesome :)

I have band in the morning, the cleaning in Chicago, and the {HOPEFULLY!!!!!} My first practice. I don't know exactly if we will get there on time, but I sincerely hope so. :)

   Hello~
I love the picture above :) Isn't is gorgeous? I cannot wait for snow. I know that sounds funny. I usually complain about it. Honestly, I don't like snow. I don't like cold. I like doing few activities in snow {like snowboarding} but otherwise I don't like snow. I don't like being cold. I think it's easier to be cold in a hot then hot in cold. BUT, I LOVE the way it looks :) Looking at snow covered trees and bushes is just so fun! I love seeing WHITE! I just think it's lovely. :) :) :) :) I look forward to the look of snow. :) And with snow comes Christmas. I think White Christmas's are a must! :) It makes Christmas special. But anywhoo, you know I love Christmas lol. I could go on about it forever, but I'll spare you the reading.
 Well, I've got school tomorrow. All I can say is pray for me xD I'm nervous. This is where I run away yelling "I'm gonna die." But then again...I always live.
 ~Hope your day is awesome!~

~missing soccer~

{this is before we left :)}

{this is what soccer girls do LOL}

{we went out to eat. I swear I wasn't mad. I don't know...i look mad xD}

{Crossroads crusaders! Yay! I love the team :)}

  So I'm missing soccer. Yep. I signed up for basketball {which I've very happy about} but honestly I really miss soccer. I just think it's just a better sport, NOW I will mention I will probably have differing opinions when I'm finished with basketball. But right now soccer's my sport. :)
  I did sign up for basketball though. I'm so nervous :)
  Anywhoo, I miss soccer and the soccer girls :) I can't wait to see you all again! ANDDDD...hopefully I'll be playin ya'll in basketball...I think we do meet :)
 ~Hope your day is awesome!

Hello :)

 Well it's not a long post today :) This picture post is for Lia :D I haven't gotten to post much about lia yet. Whereas Sophia has had a birthday and a 'then and now', and Isaac has had a 'then and now' with sam to. So this is a post picture of lia :D Love her so much!

 Anywhoo,
 I haven't been doing much since I lasted posted xD Lol. I wanted to post for lia. I have bucket loads of school to do, tonight Donna, my mom, and I got to watch pride and prejudice {the old one} Which I would argue is the better one xD I like it better. That is one of the romance movies that I do like :D That was fun :) I got to give my uncle, grandma, and great aunt a tour of our backyard, that was awesome. So yeah, that's what i've been doing.
  I really enjoy posting late at night. It's my time to relax. I write my books and stuff then. Night time is for relaxing. :)

  Hope your day is awesome!

~Awkward Turtle~

   Okay everyone, well this is a moment that my family would call 'awkward turtle.' Yes, wow. This is kinda awkward. I don't even remember the last time I posted. This is weird and a new feeling. My life has been so busy, and yes guys, that is the normal excuse, but it is nonetheless true :) My busy busy life!

  Alright, first of all, sorry for the space pictures. Honestly, I found the texture on picnik and I fell in love. Yeah, stars in my face, creepy right? I don't know why, I just like it. Hahahahaahahahaha, weird I know. But I think it's cool! LOL! :D

  Anywhoo, my life {HAS BEEN BUSY}
  Well scroll back to last week. I had school. School is stressful. I've had a pretty hard time. They give me topics that are understandable, but they just have such a short time limit. I've been doing pretty good I'd say, for what I can do. I like history better then literature. I like Spanish better then art. Go figure.
   On top of school, I have awana. I love awana, but seriously the time for verse memorizing is scarce. I find myself stuck all the time. I just need to find time to do it. And I am. I'm very motivated to finish trek this year {I finished journey!!} and then I will be only half behind. But it's workin well. :)
   And to top that, my grandad went the the hospital last week. He was also in the hospital when we were in colorado, then he came to wedding in colorado and then he went to the hospital last week. He woke up one morning and just couldn't move without being in terrible pain. :( We got him to the hospital and he stayed there for five days. During those five days we spent a lot of time at my grandparents, so my mom could help. It was hard, but we made it. {that school week was EVIL!} So prayers for him would be appreciated. He has like two different cancers right now :(
   Well then this week was MOVING! *dah, dah, dahhhh* yes. We moved. Unfortunately we uh, didn't get everything. But we filled a whole truck and a whole trailer thanks to the hawbakers, scritsmiers, and marinos. We made it! Filling it up was hard. We moved two piano's up the stairs. I was cracking up and thinking of the veggie tales 'de piano must go up'. Yep, I'm weird xD xD but it was very amusing. But moving went very well. We moved all the furniture up, we have only the garage to do, then we have to clean. That took up all of tuesday and saturday. My awesome friend {Samantha} came to our house for like four days by herself! I was SO happy. We had a great time and we uh goofed off lol. Then the Scrits' came to our house tuesday and wednesday. That was very fun to!! LOL :) Building memories, how fun ;) Oh, yeah, and the five days my grandad was sick Donna and my dad were both gone. Yeah... Anywhoo, back to the fun. Yeah this past week was awesome. Finished trilogy, monoply overload, COFFEE, grandparents house, etc. FUN!
   Life still moves on. I go to a once a week program, I go to awana, I go to my grandparents, I love my golfcart, I love my house. :) It's been hard and happy at the same time :D What's coming next? Well, on november 3 my tv shows coming out {!!} excited, on november 8, my favorite book is ending with it's last book {!!} and on november 10, I will be fifteen ladies and gentlemen. 15! I'M SO EXCITED! YUS! I officially can get a permit {which I won't be getting till next spring x(} but anywhoo, november, the month that I anxiously await. Thanksgiving is also going to be awesome. And then December 1 is donna's bday and that is the start of the 'hannah counts down to christmas' days. So the next weeks I will look forward to. Life passes by so quickly. We have to thank God for the trials and the blessings. :)
   ~I hope your past days have been awesome~

~Football~

          HELLO :) 

Okay, so I have to admit I am a football fan. It's funny really, because as of now we have no TV, and we don't have cable either. So how do I watch football? I don't. Well not this year at least.  {I'll explain why in a minute.} I do occasionally get to go to my grandparents house and watch football, but not often. BUT, in the past years I've watched a good amount of football. I find it a very interesting game. For years I didn't understand it, so I didn't watch it or like it, but now that I finally understand the game, I enjoy watching it. :D 

 So I will make it very clear, right now, that I am an avid Colt's fan. No, that did not happen when I moved to Indiana/Michigan. I've been a Colt's fan for a very long time and they are my number one team. I am not going to deny that I like the team because of their quarter back. They the {almost!} best quarterback ever, and he will be the very best very soon. 

SO this year stinks, for me at least, {a colt's fan} because they lost their quarter back x( Yeah, it's pretty sad. They are like 0/5 or something. It's SO terrible. I am still a Colt's fan of course, and they still are my team, but they really need their quarterback, back. :D 

Anywhoo, I just wanted to do a post about football, in football season, and say that I LOVE the colts. Last Christmas, I got a jersey, and an colt's outfit. I am a very serious colt's fan. If peyton manning wasn't injured I would totally challenge your teams xD xD Maybe next year!! :) 

Who's your favorite team?? 

{I admit, I'm in love with this space thing xD But that's me jersey! :D}

Hope your day is awesome!

~hannah~

~time is ticking~

Time is ticking. 

Many times I find myself waiting for a certain day. That day turns into a week. And that week turns into a month. School especially makes you forget how much time you don't  have. I plan my assignments and than the next thing I know, Wednesday is coming and I'm not ready. 

Having a time limit definitely get's me working. I've worked very diligently. 

And so yes, that's my nice short post. Hope to post more soon!

~Hope your day is awesome~

~A little story {that's actually quite big!}~

  OKAY! :) So, I haven't blogged in awhile. Luckily, it's SCHOOL SEASON. So, i kinda have an excuse, lol. But yes, I've def been busy with school ect. Well...man I have a lot to talk about. To bad, I could tell you about school, but this blog post is about yesterday...it was very interesting. xD
  First of all, I'm going to say that yes, there is another picture of the sky. I know I've been doing nature shots lately. Yeah....I mean nature is beautiful, for me at least, I DO intend to put real pictures on xD
    Anywhoo...my story....

   Okay, so I don't know if I've mentioned this already, but I was to late to try out for a Christian Volleyball this year. I was upset, but willing to wait. I was going to try out for their basketball team this winter, but I was really nervous, and didn't know if I should do it or not.
    Well, the lady in charge of it, emailed us yesterday afternoon and asked us if we were settled in yet. We said yes, we were settled in and well. The email was strange, because after it was final that I couldn't make it on the Volleyball team this year, we hadn't emailed the lady since. Well the ladies husband, emailed my mom back and said that their was an open gym at night from 7:00 to 8:30 and that I could come. The church was in Granger he said, and guess what?? My mom was already going to my grandparents house {in granger xD}! So my mom and I talked about it and we just decided I could go.
     I've been really shy in the past, if you know me. My mom was on a time schedule so she couldn't come in with me. So...I had to go in myself. It was one of the strangest things I'd ever done. I don't usually opt to go places alone. I don't like it, and I usually let Donna do the talking. But for some reason, I wanted to go bad enough to go in alone. So as we're outside as my house, I practice bumping to myself, serving on the roof etc. I wasn't sure about my Volleyball skills. I've never played inside Volleyball with positions and all, so I wasn't sure how I'd do.
    So we're in the car...driving. I've got enormous butterflies in my stomach....I'm like DYING! {just kidding lol} SO finally after a direction scare, etc, we arrived. We go in the parking lot and I see a lot of Volleyball girls. They looked tired... I assumed then and there that the varsity had had a game before free gym and that there would maybe be a normal free gym. I walk past all these girls staring down, as I usually do. I do that when I'm nervous. And it was very clear that I was new. It was a big enough group I could past unnoticed, but when I actually passed someone, they'd know I was knew. So I walk in this big fat hall, and then there is a gym right away.
   *DAH<DAH<DAH* yeah...SOOOOOO the gym had no net, and instead was filled with basketball girls. Okay.. I wasn't freaking out, but I was definitely confused. I stand behind this family who's talking to a coach kinda listening in. Finally I found the lady my mom had been emailing, Mrs. Dana, and she explained things to me. YUSS!
    Okay...so first of all, Volleyball open gym had been before, so I just missed it, and basket ball open gym was now. Yeah.....SO she talked to me about the volleyball season first, showed me her calender, etc. Then she talked about the basketball team. I was, remember, wanting to try out. She knew that, so she asked me to stay. Of course, I stayed. I wasn't about to call my mom to pick me up. xD She introduces me to the coach and then her daughters. All of them were just like, "hop in the drill their doing, don't worry, they'll explain it." Mrs. Dana had to go though, so I was on my own. I hesitantly watch from the side the drills. I've never done basketball drills, or moves, I've played street ball with my dad. I know how to shoot to an okay degree, I can dribble again okay, and I've passed with my dad but I didn't know how to pass drill. They were doing a shooting drill and I uh...chickened out and watched that one till they did the next one. xD the next one, was a dribbling drill, so I just hopped in line...
     I will say I was definitely humbled :) Which is a good thing. I'm worse than I THOUGHT! No, just kidding, I just had never done the drills they were doing, so I looked pretty silly. They were doing like twists around the defender where you had to switch hands, sometimes I got it, other times I didn't and it looked weird, but its all apart of learning. We did more drills and more drills, that were okay. The drills just got easier. Okay, and their back board was CRAZY BOUNCY! okay, I've only played on home basketball shoots {several different ones} and none of them were that bouncy. I was like missing shots really badly. HAHAHAHAHHAHAAHA...it must have been interesting to watch, if only we had a video. The shooting drill was okay. Passing drill was probably the best, I was good at that. It's not that hard, so I was pretty happy with how I did.
  Scrimage was a lot more promising. I've got an okay jump for a basketball person, and I'm good at defending I'd say. Defending will definitely be my strongest asset, I think. But I was okay on shooting, I just have to remember it doesn't matter what the other person is doing, when your on OFFENSE. I found myself guarding the defender, LOL. But I stopped that soon enough. I was laughing with myself, eh... yeah. I twas good. very good. Then at the very end we played knockout, and I didn't do bad. I made it fourth the first round! But that's because I didn't have like a varsity behind me {there were two} xD The next round we added the Elementary girls, and I stayed six or seven. The jr. high girls were really good to...so yeah, I've got lots to work on.
   What I do want to mention lastly was that, I could not have felt more welcome to the team. I mean all the girls introduced themselves to me, and they were very encouraging. That's not something you can find anywhere. They were just so nice during the game and during 'chat' time. I mean, I'd go back just to make friends, because they were just so nice even when i failed xD
    Well I want to join the season. The problem is my age. I might have to play jr. high, which I'm TOTALLY fine with {they were all really good} for now. It really depends on the rules. You see, I'm fourteen, when the varsity season starts, so to young.  and I'm fifteen when the Jr. High season starts, to old. SO i don't really know what i'm going to do. They could be like rule following and do the Sep 1 rule thing. I don't really know. I was talking to the coachs and they said that I might have to play on varsity if like im to old when the other season starts. I would always welcome a chance to play varsity, but I really wouldn't be played at all. Cuz the two that were there were really good, and that was two out of the team, you know? They prolly have a great starting line up, so I'd be fine with jr.high...might be a little awkward cuz im like older, but it's my skill level, so I'm totally good with that.
   So that's my story, of an almost volleyball gym, but a basketball gym time :D And I thank God for such nice people that I feel comfortable with, and that I had a great time yesterday! :) Pray for me as the season will start in a few weeks or something! I can't wait! Hopefully I do good!!!
I hope your day is awesome!
~Hannah

Ps. {Your awesome if you read this post...sorry it's so long!!! LOL :D}

~time flies~

So today, I finally have time to sit down and write. It is a nice and peaceful afternoon in Michigan and I am sitting at my grandparents house eating lunch :) I love it here! 

Well, what's been happening in the last day is -->school<-- 

Yes, school is what I have been doing. I must have spent like five hours doing school yesterday. I am in a home school program and I missed last week. So, I had to catch up...still haven't caught up :/ but I did catch up with one class. I finished Utopia by Thomas More, and I answered all the questions. I'm very proud of that, because I find those types of books hard to understand.

 The other book, the prince, by Machiavelli is SO hard. I welcome challenges, but this is like HARD. It's written in like old English, which is really hard to understand and it is a political book. :/ I've been trying to work at it...i think I have the wrong version though. All this would be fine if school wasn't tomorrow. lol. Yep, school's tomorrow. Am I prepared? nope. Still going though. I'm going to catch up completely this next week. :) So yes, school is hard, but I'm definitely working on it, and soon I'll be caught up! That will feel good :D
Other than school, I've been doing golf carting and everything. YAY! I honestly love my golf cart. I'm going to be very sad when we have to put it away for the winter. :/ 

Alright, so Colorado was fun! I do want to share about the wedding. Being an assistant was FuN! I really want to talk about it with pictures though :) Hopefully soon! 

Colorado was fun though. We had fun with Marty and Astrid! We went to Vale, and Marty and I went down Copper. I was really paranoid. It was 6:30 at night...and well the sun was setting. The bus driver asked us if we knew about the 'no biking after dark' rule. Well I didn't. But he let us go up. It almost rained to! It was quite an experience. I have this uh...fear of bears and mountain lions...and well Copper is a path through the Mountain and you can't really get to the highway from it. So I was kinda scared about the whole animal thing. xD But we made it alive. And Copper Mountain leads straight into the town of Frisco {which we live in} By the time we got to the Frisco it was pitch dark. Luckily, Frisco, being a town is lighted. But if we had been any later, we would have been caught. And Copper isn't lighted, so we'd have to walk down, if we are caught in the dark. BUT, we weren't trapped. I'm very thankful for making it alive xD 

Well there is one of my Colorado story! :) More to come soon! 

~Hope your day is awesome~

FUN for one :) I loveeeeedddddddd it :D I will post about it in full. When I have a preview picture or something. It was so good. Marty and Astrid have been here for the past three days. They are amazing awesome people xD

As for what I've been doing? I've been enjoying Colorado. The mountains are beautiful and it's such a wonderful blessing to be able to come up here. I love Colorado. We've been going to Lake Dillon a lot and playing at the park. We also enjoyed Frisco which is a block or two away from our house. :) If you go to Donna's blog {createdbydonnablog.com} you can see some pretty pictures she took of the mountains. :) I'm so blessed to be up here!
