Much Needed Update!

Girlfriends,

I apologize for not posting in such a long time! But once I get this posted you will know a few big things that have happened in the last two weeks that I have been meaning to post about! : )

First, I am so happy because a Hobby Lobby store opened up just down the road from where I live so now all my crafting needs can be supplied there and/or Joann's! Here are a couple pics of what it looks like inside:




Second, my siblings and I took a CPR/First Aid/Fire Safety/Heimlich class on March 9. I am officially a pro at all of the things listed above so if you are with me and suddenly need any of those procedures to be done, no worries! : )
Third, March 10, I went to an economics club class at the Marriott Hotel! It was so fun because I dressed up like a business woman (if you know me, you know I have never done this before) and heard Philip Howard speak about his new book "Life Without Lawyers". After his speech and Q/A, we had this huge three course meal in the banquet room! Here are pics of the food:






Fourth, I have been LOVING the BEAUTIFUL sunny weather God is blessing us with! Thank you Jesus because I know I need some sunshine to cheer me up every now and then! : )
Monday (i am not going to number anymore), was just gorgeous out! I got to wear a t-shirt and jeans! I just loved it so I did all my homework on our porch so I got to soak up some rays all morning and afternoon!

Tuesday, I did pretty much the same thing! Since it was St. Patricks Day, I of course wore my green t-shirt (its more floral but it is mostly green) as did everyone else in my family! My little brother AJ had a blast being outside almost all day! He loves being outside just like me. : ) My mom and I did out Beth Moore bible study outside together too!
Yesterday, It was looking pretty gloomy and blah in the morning but in the afternoon it started getting warmer and sunny so I did a few of my books outside. Also, I planted flowers in the most darling little pot ever! The flowers I planted are called Candytuff! What a funny name! Here is a picture of the pot. Once I see some green popping out I will post another picture of it and so on until its in bloom!


Today, we are trying out best to hurry and get as much schoolwork done as possible because my aunt, cousins, and grandma are all coming to visit in a little under 2 hours! YEA!! So I need to get off now so I can finish my geometry (yay math... OK not really). : )
Enjoy the sun!!! (if you are not having a sunny day today, pray for sunny days!)
Post more soon,
Butterfly
