100 days

I don't know if everybody has heard about this, but a Brother has put together a scripture reading schedule for the summer. It's really great. I, and my family, are really enjoying it. It actually started on Sunday, and it goes for 100 days, until Labour Day. This is day three so it's not too late to start! Join with us and read through the New Testament in 100 days!
The schedule is here.
Hope you have a great day!

Friday's Factual Randomosity

1. I love children. I can't wait to have a family of my own.

2. I have a super cute nephew...well, it's true! And he has the most contagious grin...AH! Sorry. :) ...AND they are coming down to see us in June the 5th. :D I am one excited Aunty! 

3. I am left eye dominant, so I shoot left handed. 

4. I walk in time to music. So if I am ever blessed to be married, I will probably walk in beat. Even if it is halftime! And if Maria (Julie Andrews) in Sound of Music did it, then I can too! Ha!

5. In the song "Soul and Inspiration" by the Righteous Brothers, when they say,  "Baby, I can't make it withoutcha. And I'm, I'm tellin' ya, honey, you're my reason for laughin', for cryin', for livin', and for dyin'." I like to add "And for freezin' and for fryin'!" :D

6. It's so frustrating when you are sewing and the head of your pin comes off while you're trying to take it out.

7. I did it. I got some fabric, and went out on a limb and just DID it! ... I made an orange, with white polkadots, skirt! :) I'm in love! 

8. I wonder if the guys in "Man from Snowy River" got wind burn from filming the riding? lol

9. My joints crack a lot. Like a lot. 

10. I can't wait to be done with school. Then I can just be a stay-at-home daughter. :) 

11. We sleep under mosquito nets. What a lifesaver! (But I like Jolly Ranchers better, so "What a Jolly Rancher!")

12. I can't go to sleep without chap stick on.

13. I always check behind all shower curtains. Everywhere, anytime- I've been jumped out at and scared way too many times!! 

Have a great weekend! :)

Truth

You know you've been doing too much algebra when you're sitting at the lunch table, checking all the problems, and you say "Five x over squared" instead of "Five x over two." It's true.

Even when your Mom just busts up laughing. Oh well...hehe!

A cool song

Miles got me hooked on this band, Alphaville. It. Is. Awesome. :) I know it's an older group, but the oldies are the best, ent?

This one, The Jet Set, has been in my head quite a bit lately.



Have a great Tuesday! :)

Friday's Factual Randomness

1. I chop vegetables in time to music.

2. I am right handed but left foot dominant.

3. Mangos are in season. I am one happy girl. :)

4. I like climbing trees and wading in creeks...and swinging. I could swing for hours.

5. Miles is awesome.

6. I am reading Dracula. I'm a little freaked...but I have this curiosity in an insane way. I can hardly put it down.

7. I think anything and everything is super silly when I get to a certain stage of tiredness. My brothers love to take advantage of me. Believe me. It's NOT that silly!

8. Thirteen is my favorite number.

9. I love to make fun of Orlando Bloom. :D

10. I love to go out on the fields and do campaign work. There is just something so drawing and wonderful in spreading the Gospel.

11. I have never been a bridesmaid before. When I was little I used to worry that I could never get married because I have three older sisters, and "Three times a bridesmaid never a bride." haha!

12. I read a lot. I really enjoy books. :)

13. I get cold very easily. Like yesterday it got down to 77 with rain and breeze...and I put on my jacket and socks. :) It felt real good!

There you go! Have a great weekend! :)
