This Past Weekend...and School is Almost OVER!

This past weekend we had a cook out in our backyard. We had hotdogs, pasta salad, cheese and crackers, and later that evening we had sliced cantaloupe. YUM!

Then sometime after we got done eating we played UNO until it started to rain. I love playing that game!

Hey look! I can see my daddy's cards!

*~ My Trip to Memaws *~

Saturday we went to my memaw's house and these are some pictures we took.

This is Memaw's cat. He is really sweet, cute, and loving. He really likes people, but doesn't like other animals. He wants all the attention for himself!

Look at those pretty green eyes and long whiskers! Y



Doesn't he look like a good mouser? Y
This is a squirrel that kept coming up to Memaw's patio door and looking in. He wanted some peanuts to eat.


She has about seven squirrels that come to visit her everyday. I love watching them out the door.

Memaw gave me some peanuts to give them...but this one was a little shy.

I had a really good time at Memaw's house!

Things I Noticed...

Do you ever stop to notice the things around you? Just in a minutes time, while taking my dog outside a little while ago, I noticed the following things:

• I saw an ant on my foot and I shook it off.
• I saw a discusting black spider. !
• I saw pretty flowers.
• I saw a little baby boy in his diapers.
• I saw a squirrel eating out of the bird feeder.
• I saw green grass and green leaves.
• I saw my neighbor raking his yard. B
• I saw a blue sky and white fluffy clouds.
• I heard birds singing. O
• I heard people talking, but I didn't see them.
• I felt the hot sun on my skin.
• I felt the porch under my feet. H
• I felt the wind blowing my hair.

And then I came in.

Wordless Wednesday~Blooming

Every Wednesday, Dixie hosts "Wordless Wednesday." If you would like to participate or would like to see other entries, be sure and visit her!

Nancy Drew Books are COOL!

I just finished reading, "Where's Nancy?" a Nancy Drew Mystery. I LOVE to read Nancy Drew books! They are very interesting...and I love mysteries. They always keep you on the edge of your seat!

In this book Bess, Ned, and George have the "Case of the Missing Detective" to solve. Nancy has disappeared! POOF. Just like that. And, they have never solved a mystery without her before.

It was fun seeing how they tried to solve the mystery without Nancy. I won't tell you whether they found her or not...

you'll just have to read it yourself!

~ Daybook ~

Today… Monday, May 11, 2009

Outside my window… cloudy and raining outside. It's starting to get dark out.

I am thinking… The past weeks have been going by too fast.

I am thankful for… the church I go to.

I am wearing… a blue shirt with flower print blue and white shorts.

I am reading… Nancy Drew Super Mystery--Where's Nancy? by Carolyn Keene

I am creating… my daybook entry.

One of my favorite things… books, books, books!

For education this week… my regular subjects. I'm reading about President John F. Kennedy in history. School is almost over for this year!

A keeper at home skill I am using/learning… cleaning and cooking.

A spiritual lesson I'm learning... gentleness

A godly character trait I plan to work on… gentleness

Scripture I am memorizing…

1 John 2:3-4

Now by this we know that we know HIM, if we keep HIS commandments. He who says, "I know HIM," and does not keep HIS commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.

For the rest of the week… dentist appointment on Wednesday morning, groceries on Thursday, Church on Sunday.

A picture I’d like to share...

This is my big, fluffy cat.
