Hello there,
If you would like to read the most beautiful, touching, and inspirational yet sad story, go to www.audreycaroline.blogspot.com and read Angie and Todd Smith's story. You may recognize the name Todd Smith from the Christian Band "Selah". You will need tissues and you will probably cry, I don't know who wouldn't cry because I sure did. This is great to read with a loved one because you may need a shoulder to cry onto. I don't regret reading this and I don't think you will either. Tell me what you thought of the story when you are done reading it. I would love to hear your thoughts on how God can change and do so much in such a short life time!
Love in Jesus,

My 16th Birthday!!!
Hey,
Yesterday was my SWEET SIXTEEN! YEA ME! Well I will tell you all about my BIG day. This morning we had sunny-side-up eggs, english muffins, sausage, and hashbrowns for breakfast. After breakfast, we went to church and after the lovely message, went to the dollar store to get my dad a newspaper, then went to get a cake and groceries from a local grocery store, and then got my free birthday pizza. We came home and ate lunch (pizza, salad and cake) and then I opened my presents. I got two beautiful rings which are the pictures above. The rings with the heart in the center is my sweet sixteen purity ring to remind me to stay true to God and save my kiss for my future husband that God is preparing for me. : )
Besides the rings I got a shadow box (you can put pictures inside and decorate it, one of my hobbies), a headband, and $20 dollars from my greatgrandmother and a lotion/bodywash kit from my grandparents. I haven't had my party yet but I want to wait for warmer weather I think. Well after opening my gifts, we went shopping for groceries and shoes for my baby brother. We didn't get home until almost 8pm so we had a late dinner of hamburgers and veggies. They were good! I took a shower after my busy day and went to bed after giving my mother a back rub (it helps her sleep with her insomnia and all).
Overall, I had a great day and wouldn't trade a minute of it for anything.
Happy,

Dresses
Hey there,
Yesterday, I went to our local fabric store and bought material to make sundresses for my sister and I. I finished my sisters but I am not quite done with my own yet. I will post a picture when I am finished!

Hey bloggers,
Sorry I have been so busy. Babysitting picked up a bit this week and I was grateful for the extra money. But I would like to tell you about my Saturday! Last Saturday I went to the mall to see College Road Trip with my friend for her birthday. It was an EXCELLENT movie, great for daddys and daughters to see together. After that we went to a rather expensive store and tried on tons of prom and sun dresses! I found several that I would have loved to buy but the cheapest sun dress was $38! I can make my own for a 1/4 that price or less! LOL Well anyway, after that, we all went to Subway for lunch and I got the 6" combo (sub, chips and large pop) and most of the other girls did the same. After eating, which we had been starving before, we went to shop around the mall. We looked at Claire's, American Eagle (found tons of cute clothes but all over my budget), The Coffee Beanery and a couple others. Then my parents picked me up and we headed home. I changed because it was warmer than usual out so I put on my new camo bermudas, my pink tank, and a white zipper hoodie and we headed out after I helped make sandwiches for a snack. We went to the local park and ate in the gazebo. I raced with my brother and sister and beat them almost everytime having the advantage of being 5' 8"! LOL Well after that we played around in the park and went to run a couple errands to get my sister a toy exchange and then went home because my baby brother was crying (yes he is a boy!). Once we got home, all the neighborhood kids were playing outside so I went biking, rollerblading (my favorite!), played frizbee, and jumped on my friends trampoline. It was a lot of fun! After we had put all of our toys and bikes and other stuff away, I went with my dad to get pizza for dinner. While at the store, I bought lindt chocolate's orange dark chocolate! One of my all time favorites!!! : ) After dinner, I watched Lord of the Rings II: the Twin Towers with my mom and brother. I got my pjs on, brushed my teeth (yes I do keep my hygiene as clean as possible), and said prayers with my family before crawling into bed after 11pm. I wanted to read but I couldn't keep my eyes open! : P Well that was my Saturday. I will write more soon but I would also like to hear from all of you! Tell me about your weekend or something fun you did. I would love to hear about it!
Until next time,
