Wordless Wednesday!

Friendship!

Last night it took me forever to fall asleep. Ashtyn was the cause! I kept on thinking about all the funny and serious things that have happened between us. I think it is really funny how we met! I just had to laugh! I was at the pool and I was wearing a white shirt and I didn't have my swimsuit. Naomi and Ruth didn't know me either but for some reason they talked me into getting on their raft and they promised not to tip me over. THEY DID... and I was wearing a white shirt. And for some odd reason Ashtyn just happened to have a swimsuit in my size with her. Why she had a swimsuit in my size with her i do not know.

we started emailing and she asked me to go running after school the day before cross country started. So I go to her house and we start to run/walk. It took us over an hour and we forgot she had a piano lesson. So I caused her to be late for that!

We have seen each other shed a lot of tears. The time Karen got bucked off the horse and she couldn't get in to the stepec's house! She cried all through cc and when we cry it makes the other cry. Then the time when she spent the night at my house for the first time. We watched Fly Wheel then some chick flick. We ended up crying ourselves to sleep over the junk in our lives.

The time when it was before cross country and we were waiting for the others. We were throwing acorns and Ashtyn hit a squirrel with one! Or the time when we changed the words in Fly Away by FFH to drive away!

There are so many funny times together and I look back and I realize that God put her in my life for a reason. I needed a friend like her!

Ashtyn's Suprise

Ashtyn's birthday was on Friday and I surprised her by going to her soccer game and then we got a hotel room and spent the night there. All the hotel had left for rooms was an executive board suites. We walk in and there is this HUGE conference table, a kitchen, 3 tv's, 2 bathrooms... It was awesome because then they weren't on top of me when I got sick in the morning (long story). Then we went shopping and since I lost my purse on Wednesday I had only 40 bucks and I learned that it is really hard getting clothes with only $40. I spent $39 exact! We went home and we did barbie workout! It was really hard! On Sunday we went to Ashtyn's church and there was a life size cardboard Steven Curtis Chapman! Of coarse i made them take my picture with it! It was awesome!

Happy Birthday Jack

Today is Jack's 11th birthday! I ended up getting him a t-shirt. Nothing exciting but it is really cute! I really like the ideas I got and I will try to remember those for next year! Tomorrow is my best friend's birthday and I have something in store for that! You will have to wait and see what her mom and I come up with!!!!!

Help

Tomorrow is my brother's birthday and I haven't even thought about what I am going to get him. This week has gone by so fast. Any suggestions? On Friday is my best friend's birthday and I know what I am going to get her but I need to make sure my mom will let me because it would involve her driving us out of town! But I think she won't mind. I will tell you what it is after her birthday! So any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! I will be back to blogging regularly soon!

Welcome Home John!

Yesterday was a very busy and exciting day! My friend, Ashtyn, has been in the adoption process for quite some time and they finally got united as a family! Now there are 6 kids in the family and 5 of them are girls! Poor John! I got invited to go pick up her parents and John at the airport. I was of coarse taking pictures! There flight was scheduled to come in around 8 last night but they were going to try to get an earlier flight if they could so they told us to have my mom write me a note saying if there Grandpa calls school that I would have permission to leave. But that was only if they called. So they didn't get an earlier flight so I just went to Cross Country practice after school! My mom must of not put two and two together even though we went over this many many times, but she forgot to pick me up from Cross Country! So I use another kids cell phone since I don't have one to call my mom. She answered and she was eating dinner in another town. She felt so bad and my ride was going to be at my house to pick me up in 15 minutes. So she calls my grandma to come get me and then my grandma took me to Ashtyn's house. I quickly put on some new clothes and some more deo! I was such an honor to be at the airport and join there family for this event! We love you, John! Welcome Home!

Labor Day weekend fun!

Poor Ellyn, She spilt hot chocolate down her leg the day before her birthday 11th and got a 2nd degree burn:( We did a lot of boating an got some great waves for jumps! Everyone forgot their camera so I was a photo freak! Like usual!
