Some more stuff on Fall

As we say hello to the new sensations of fall I am getting more and more excited. Life around here always changes and comes out a little smoother than it was at the beginning of the school year. All of our school is finally a little more settled, and  we can go through it without asking mom so many questions. Trust me she gets a lot of them!

Something that always fascinates me is the colors. Not just the colors of the leaves, but the colors on everything: clothing, mugs, leaves, pumpkins, skies, and other browns and orange-ish things!

One thing we like to do for fall decorations is to dip pretty leaves into to clear wax. They stay good for 2-3 weeks and make a very sweet but fall like decoration!

Bread....mmmmmm, one of the best snacks with Chai Tea or cocoa!

I know everybody has a favorite thing about fall and I'd love to hear them!

My little Sophia :)

So my blogger break was a very long one....a little longer than expected! I guess it was because blogging became more of a task that just a relaxing, fun, story of my life! So today was just the funnest (don't mock me of my bad grammar) day ever. It was wet, dreary, and very, very cold. Exactly how I like it. :) I like to call it the beginning of a Wisconsin fall!

Today I drank two cups of hot cocoa and am drinking my third! It is so yummy :) Fall is my favorite season, but then again it is almost everybody's! I love the excitement of winter arising in your heart! I love the temperature, and the leaves. I love the smell, and the all the drinks! There's tea, hot cocoa, apple cider, friendship tea and so many more! The celebratory of carving pumpkins, the music, the cold grass against your bare feet. Oh, I could go on, and on, and on but it would get just way to detailed!

Here's a whole of bunch pictures for you to get a little more updated on how my summer was. I hope you summer was great!

Most of the pictures are of my little, adorable, sweet, bubbly Sophia! I love my little sister to death! She has such an impact on my life and I don't know what I do without her.  Sometimes I might yell at her, or get mad at her, but hey don't we all have our days?

 Sophia is so cute in that picture...I look terrible : D

 I just love the lighting in this pic!

 Ant!!! :)

 Look closely and you can see the dew drips!

What was your summer like?

My Hannah

This is post is about Hannah. I love her! There is not much more to say. She is a super sweet girl, and we enjoy each others company a lot. Last week ( Sunday) we had a water fight at the stream near my house. She started it : ) She is such a pretty girl and very very creative. Last Sunday, we tried to make truffles....didn't go to well! The best part is that I get to see her every Sunday. I love you sister!

Lot's of Randomness

With the beginning of summer comes activities, and with activities comes busyness, and with busyness come no time post on your blog, and with no time to post on your blog, comes unhappy followers! WOW was that a long sentence or what?  Sorry y'all it's been so long, but like I said with the beginning of summer comes busyness. We are the kind of family who likes to sit around and hang out during the summer, we still do lots of activities, but it's not like we're always busy and were always doing something. So when the beginning of summer comes around the corner when the last flower blooms, it's turns into a whole different world.

Lately I've been into baking. I just made some fudge today, and let me tell you...*jump* *freak out* *falling out of my chair*.....my little sister, and my cousin Grace just banged on the window really hard asking me if I wanted to play. There just went 10 years of my life folks! Next post I'm going to do a special post for my friend Hannah! Y'all should enjoy it!

I was recently in Joplin, Misourri, helping out with tornado relief. Seeing all of the houses completely flat, and rubish everywere made me eternally freaked out of tornado's.  Even though it was really scary, it was also sad. People there are left without anything. We went down there 2 weekends in a row because we enjoyed helping so much! Even though your working, you actually enjoy yourself. There is always free food, nice showers, really freindly people, and lots more! They need tons of help down there and all ages will have something to do! I would highly recommend it to you all. You will really learn a lot! Here is just a few pics of the disaster..........

I didn't have time to upload any of the pictures we took, so these ones are taken by my cousin Louis, who helped us clean up there.

Hannah

Don't have much time to post so I have to make it fast. This is my sister Hannah. She was in Guatemala visiting my sister Leah with my mom and Grandma. This is a giant cross on the hillside of the town. Hannah looks so pretty in this picture. Agreed?

Today, God blessed me in so many ways.  He gave me this beautiful day to begin my morning with, and the wonderful...guinea pig on my lap? Yes, right now Sophia just dropped her guinea pig on my lap and said here you go! Okay then. We are hoping to breed her (the guinea pig) some time soon!  She is much bigger since the last time I showed you pictures. I wish you could all see her and hold her, cause she is just so cute!

 Now who here has been watching American idol this season? We have, and my sisters are obsessed with Scotty McCreery...the Christian country singer! they voted for him 33 times last night! Yes would you call that obsessed? I would definitely call that obsessed.
