so much!

There's so much to tell! I've put it off so long already...blogging that is. I come on here like every day just to look around but rarely actually sit down to actually BLOG. LOL
Anyways we just said bye to Aunty Kathy who visited us since last night. We had a great time with her just being around and talking late into the night. Too bad she couldn't have stayed longer. She's the greatest.
Okay other than that I turned 18 as everyone well knows. ;-) Papa bought me the Lord of the Rings series so we got to watch that this past week. Lets see what else....oh yeah, Aunty just signed me up for Arbonne. Now I'm offically a consultant. Now we just hope I get some business.
So anyways I'm also studying in my immense (not) free time for getting my license. It's kinda hard just to take the time to sit down and STUDY! Oh well, if I wanna get it by the start up of Bible school I should start really putting some effort into it. :-)
Next subject...I'm making this all very brief cause I hate going into vast detail. Yesterday I finished a play dress I made for Janaina. She really does love it! Today she begged me to let her ride a bike with it on and was quite dissapointed when I said it might rip if she got it stuck in the wheel. She went and got changed reluctantly but still, I'm glad she enjoys it so much.
I still have a lot of other sewing I must do before too long. All the girls grow out of things so fast it's hard to keep up!!
Okay what else....mmmmm.....The gardens growing like crazy out there. I go out there to help almost every day with weeds and such. It's so lush and green!! Especially after a good hard rain like we had yesterday. :-)
Well I hear the great outdoors calling for me.
I must shut down.

home again

Well, yesterday was my last day of summer work. I moved everything out of my room at FBI and home again successfully. Now all I have to do is put everything in it's proper place. That should take a while! Last night I spent like 2 hrs. trying to get my bedroom here back into shape but there's still much to be done. Most of the problem is that now that I took everything out that I needed some of the stuff needs a new place to go. Actually some of it's just a matter of organization and since I have less closet/drawer space here I'm needing to use some bins for my winter clothes and such.

Mama went for her appointment today and the doctor says everything looks fine. Bless God!! We've been praying for her for a while just hoping she'd be okay and sure enough thus far it looks good.

I got to babysit the children this morning which went fine as I had them do some constructive things otherwise who knows what would've happened. :-) We ate a picnic lunch out on the lawn then when Mama and Papa came back everyone just played outside and kept each other busy.

Monday's the BIG day!! Yup, I'm turning 18! I don't know if I should've put an exclaimation mark there though. LOL Sometimes I wonder if that age will really be as great as it seems with becoming a legal adult and getting my licence etc. I'm just hoping for the best, I guess.

That's all for now!!
