BUSY

Hey everyone,



Sorry I haven't been posting in a while but I have been really busy helping my family paint the deck. We didn't do any school Tuesday, Wednesday, or today because from 10am until almost 6pm everyday, we were outside painting our deck! So I have to do school on the weekend now! It will be an interesting schedule until we finish sometime later this week. Fortunately the only painting left to do is the floors and my dad is doing that part with my mom! *sigh of relief*

So besides that let me tell you about the past week.
Last Thursday evening, I went out to a local city for a Ladies Night Out event. They had contests, giveaways, smoothies, free totes and all sorts of goodies. I went with one of my best friends, Katelyn, and we had a blast! My mom and I both brought a friend and we had lots of fun. It started at 6pm and we stayed until a little after 9pm. Katelyn and I bought ice cream around 8pm and we were sitting in the park across the street eating our ice cream and talking about homeschooling and such (she is homeschooled like me) and then these two teen guys in a car drive by with the stereo blasting some dumb music, well anyway, five minutes later........ they drive by, AGAIN and the guy in the passenger seat shouts over the music to us "Whats up!" Katelyn and I were hysterical with laughter and couldn't get over this hilarious happening! I told my mom and her friend and they laughed and even my dad thought it was funny! LOL I don't think I will ever forget about that fun night!
Friday I went to go babysit in the morning like I always do and it was nice because it was just me and the girls (Noah is in school now). After babysitting, my mom and I stopped at a few local garage sales and I got 9 tops and a never used suede purse for a low total of $12!!!! Can you believe that!!! Also my grandma came over and visited with us and we had a nice time talking with her.
Saturday, we went to the chiropractor in the morning and then we went back home and cleaned the house most of the day.
Sunday, after church we went to the Cider Mill by our house and enjoyed donuts and cider after eating a quick burger at a fast food joint. Then we went to a cider mill that has a really nice gift shop and play area. They have a kids barn that has slides and peddle tractors of little kids and I took AJ down the slides on my lap (they were looooooooong slides too!). Then we had to go grocery shopping and bring our yummy food home.
Monday, I was actually able to do all my school work and get it done before 2pm! That is good since I have 6 hours of school every day! I helped my mom tidy up the house because she was having a Ladies Night neighborhood moms get together at our house. I had to babysit that night so I can't tell you how the evening went for my moms party.
Tuesday, Wednesday, and today didn't have much difference between them. We did our devotion Bible reading in the morning after breakfast and then went out to stain the deck.
It was nothing fun and if I had had the choice, I would rather have done my homework than paint our deck because we had soooo much to do. We had a huge three level deck (I will take a pic to show you later) and it has waaaaaay too much detail to express the massiveness of it all! (I am not sure if massiveness is a word or not but if it isn't, don't tell me.... LOL!)
Anyway, that just about raps it all up! Thanks for reading my blog and don't forget to comment!

Blessings,
Butterfly
