Prayer Request

Hey everyone! How's life?
I have a prayer request. There is a little girl I know who was born with down syndrome. She is so sweet and adorable! She is in the hospital because she was having breathing problems. It turns out that her aortic arch is pressing down on her lung, making it difficult to breathe. If you could pray for a swift recovery I would very much appreciate it. I'm not sure what the plans are medically yet.
This little girl has a long rocky road ahead of her, they are already talking about some surgery ahead. Please pray for her and her family. Thank you so much!

Love,
  Grace <3

Tag, You're it!

I got tagged by Purple Pixie over at theunsocializedhomeschooler.blogspot.com. Thanks so much!! And everybody go check out her blog!!

 

The Rules:

1. You must answer all the questions the tagger has given you, and make eleven questions for the people you are going to tag. Obviously if there is a question you're not okay with answering for whatever reason, you don't have to answer it. You can skip it.

 

2. Next, tag eleven bloggers!

4. No tagging back.

 

 

Here are the questions she asked, and my answers.

6. What do you do for fun? Draw, skate, hang out with my awesome neighbors, and dream and plan for when my babies (my chicks) come!! The neighbors are getting ten more chickens, so they letting each of us kids get two. (I'm tertiary family they say. :D) I'm naming mine Venus and Sweetheart. <3

Hey everybody!
How was your holiday season? Mine was fantabulous. I did something new this time. I went swing dancing! It was soo much fun.
The second picture is my friends and I dancing to gangnam style. My friend Colleen and I requested it. :)
I thought the whole dancing thing would be kinda awkward, but actually, the dancing was so fast we didn't even have to look into each others faces half the time! And during the slow dances where my friend and I didn't have time to hide, we ended up dancing with our guy friends and it was just fun. If you haven't done any dancing, and have the chance, you should go for it. It's a ton of fun. And that's coming from me, a girl who is not a real touchy feely person. :)

2013

Happy New Year Everybody!!

... But mostly Shopping Shopping Shopping!!!

    Merry Christmas eve eve eve everybody!!
I had a fabulous day today, did you guys? My sister is home from college for a whole month!! Today her friend and her sister (who's my friend) and Allison and I all went last minute Christmas shopping at the University Mall. It was so crowded!! All the parking lots were full, so we had to park at the Vitamin Shoppe nearby instead.

    About ten stores, two coffees, (no I didn't drink both. Actually, I didn't drink either.) and an armful of bags later, we decided to head to the OTHER mall. It was incredibly cold with the wind coming off the lake, and we had to walk downtown to get there, but it was worth it. Church street was completely decked out in amazing white lights.



 

    By the way, that weird blob in the upper left hand corner is a snowflake that fell on my lens. :)

    I had so much fun, and I even bought a dress!! That's totally amazing for me, because I really don't like wearing skirts or dresses. LOL like my awesome socks? :)

    This one's for Purplepixie. :) I know from your blog that you love One Direction, so I thought I'd post this for you. I couldn't help it, I had to take this picture. :D 

    Merry Christmas everyone! I hope this Christmas brings joy and peace to all.

God Bless!

Snow?

Snow? Snowww!!!! Yes, the first snow has come and gone. Well, most people wouldn't call it an official "snow". More like a couple little snowflakes that melted as soon as they hit earth.
It snowed up on the mountains last Monday, so usually that means we'll have snow in six weeks. Because it snowed I couldn't help it. I just HAD to play Christmas music. So with much eye rolling from Mom, I popped in a Perry Como CD. :) Nothin' so good as the Christmas classics.
Before I end this rather short post, I have to tell you what Mom said today. We are obviously all thinking about the upcoming winter at the moment, because when I put in my favorite mix CD today, and Taylor Swift poured out her soul in "We are never ever getting back together", Mom declared, "If I ever move down south, I'm going to sing this to my snow shovel!" :) I think maybe after living here for twenty-six years she's getting just a little tired of snow shoveling. LOL Thanks Jesus for giving us a neighbor who's often willing to snow-blow our driveway!!!
