Fall ;)

I probably post about this every single year, but just know that I truly can't help it. I love fall! It's God's Creation at it's finest. I don't spend mush time outside in the summer because I can't stand the heat. Fall is great because of the cool mornings and nights, and the bearable afternoons. Plus, the colors are beautiful and vibrant. One of my favorite things about it has to be fall clothing, and all of the activities you can do. Next week we are going to a pumpkin patch, it's football season, and we had our first fall get together. Plus there are lots of church meetings to go to that aren't to far off. Every morning I go outside and run/walk for thirty minutes at about 7:30. I just love watching the fog rise from the pond in the morning and the dew covered webs (even though I hate spiders). ?????

NEW ROOM TOUR

 I finally decided to sit down and work on my room tour! For the longest time, I have put this off, but now I decided to get to get it done. Our bedroom used to be yellow! I absolutely hated it, but it was Ericka who picked it out. I think she only picked that color because it was called "Goldilocks". It was your stereotypical tween bedroom I guess you could say. We changed our room up a lot. We didn't really like the twin beds so we got a queen sized bed. It was still pretty ugly though

This is a picture I took a while ago before we had the mirror. It shows what our bedding looks like. We moved the white table to Sadie and Ruby's new room recently.

This is a picture I took a while ago when I organized the top of my white dresser. Ericka puts her close in the built in drawers in our bunk bed.

We also added a door mirror, a lamp, and a canvas.

This picture shows my favorite side of the room. Ericka and I also have two baskets to put our school work in under the window om the right.

Ericka made these curtains, and we put a Bible verse on the chalk board.

One of my favorite things about my bedroom is the book shelf! On top of it we have trophies and lots of seashells.

 

This used to be blue, but Ericka painted it with stripes. I think it turned out well.

I hope you enjoyed this! Please know that I'm not at all trying to brag. We've worked hard to get our room to where it is now.

Today I decided to upload some pictures off of my camera. This used to be how I got all of the pictures for my blog until I started using my iPad and my iPhone.  Eventually I want to get a nice camera, but for now my iPhone will work.

So here are the pictures! I  only posted a few because they were taking forever to load.

Haircut Regrets...

So it's 10:56 p.m. and I'm writing this blog post because I was looking at pictures of me from 2015 - early 2016, and I really miss my long hair! When I got it cut in May, I absolutely loved it. It was a big difference, but it wasn't a strait up bob. It was growing back fairly quickly, and I decided to get it cut again. Well.... I told her that I wanted it cut to my shoulders. I know that I told her that, but I really didn't expect it to be that short. I hated it! Whenever I get complements I'm thinking to myself "thanks for lying to me". Because I know that it's ugly! Alas, it will grow back, but it might be couple more years until it looks like this.

Hopefully it will grow back soon........

Camp Picture

These Summer Night

I haven't really posted in a while. Things have been pretty busy. Three weddings, three summer camps, and three remodeling projects later, I've decided to post.

So to start at the beginning I would have to say that summer camp was one of the best experiences of my life. Not to be stereo typical, but I really did make great friends and great memories. As far as the beach goes, it was beautiful. Especially at high tide, and night time.

I also did the put off project (my bedroom). It had been painted, but it just wasn't quite done. I PROMISE, I will get those uploaded very soon. Also the boy's old bedroom is now Sadie and Ruby's. It's very...um....uh..pink. It really is cute for a little girl though! Plus the boy's room is now in the old study.

As far as weddings go, Ben (my cousin) and Heyward, got married recently! It was a gorgeous wedding, and the food was great! We did trash the car. What do you expect? We rolled it, dumped birdseed on it, and I taped black and white paper pom poms on it.

Also I went to Bro. Ric and Sis. Grace's wedding in Cartersville, GA in the party bus. The squad consisted of Grandma, James, Sara, Jarret, Me, and the ghost of Franklin D. Roosevelt. We got lost a few times, but we had fun. When we got to the motel we ate lunch with the Jay James's, and took a night swim. In the morning we got ready for the wedding. It was beautiful!
(I'll post pictures in another post by the way)

Until Next Time,
