Deep And Wide


Which, in case you wondered, is the name of a song I learned a long time ago off of a
Sunday school CD.

NOTE: The blurry spots are not due to bad photography but to bad editing on the computer.

~E~M~I~L~Y~~G~R~A~C~E~






Sweet sweet Emily! Today she turns 13. She is a teenager. She is an young adult and she is a beautiful young lady. Here are 13 things about our sweet girl.

  1. When Jamie was a baby she called her "MeMe" It stuck. I still call her that.
  2. Her middle name is Grace. It suits her perfectly.
  3. She plays violin and piano.
  4. She is a wonderful artists. Her baby dragons are so round and cuddly I could hug them.
  5. Her sweet disposition is a joy to all of us.
  6. She loves her huge oversized Golden Retriever/ Lab mix.
  7. She reads anything she can and she reads fast.
  8. She likes her school work.
  9. *At the age of two she proudly talked about all the things her "other mother" would let her do. (Ex. Stay up late, eat ice cream before bed, watch TV)
  10. When she was three our friends loved to ask her what her name was, she always replied "Emily". And then when asked her name, "3"
  11. Again at the age of two, she acquired a small wart on her thumb. When the tree men came to remove a tree in our yard, she proudly introduced herself by holding up her thumb and proclaiming, "I have a wart!"
  12. When she was 8 she made a canning jar into a piggy bank and gave it to our grandfather. When asked what he was supposed to do with it she replied, "Fill it up and give it back!"
  13. She has a sweet, gentle, and loving spirit. The man who wins her hand and heart has won a treasure.

I love you MeMe,
Jessica

A Dream Come True





Yesterday after church I got to play a friend's cello.
It was
SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Much fun!!!
I LOVED it!!!
Because I play the violin I it was a little easier than it would have been if I well didn't!
But it was also harder to play in a way.
For one the strings are SO heavy you have to press down a LOT harder than you think in order to not get harmonics.


And you have to
STRETCH
your fingers REALLY far.

It was also a lot heavier than my violin.
Emily couldn't hold it up so that's why she looks rather uncomfortable in the photo.

Anyway that was what I did Sunday afternoon.
I also have some more photos that I took but I'm going to edit them first.

P.S. If I don't look happy in the picture I really was I was simply concentrating VERY hard.

~Untitled~

I went out in the garden and took a bunch of photos the other day of all our flowers.
I LOVED how every single one of the photos turned out.
This is one of the many,many,many,many,many, MANY types of zinnias we planted this year.

P.S. Not real sure what's going on with the blue lines.
For some reason when I typed it linked to the photo all by its self.
I don't know why!

Little Cabin Home On The Highway

This Monday we were all sitting around breakfast and "Fun Mommy and Daddy" decided to take us all to the park.
So we all packed up and headed out all 10 of us to the park that was an hour away.

Well about half way there (way out in the country where you don't get cell-service)we all started hearing a rather odd sound.

Sort of like"thump~uh~thump~uh~thump".
Not wanting to panic or anything we all just kind of looked at each other sort of like
"Umm... Did you hear a sound?"

Well sure enough we all heard it so we pulled into the fire dep. and Daddy looked around in the engine.
And while we all sat in the car I took some pictures.
This is a photo of the little house that was across the road from where we where sitting.

Anyway the belt that runs everything had come loose so we turned around and came home.
But we had fun riding in the car together laughing and telling stories.

By the way "Little Cabin Home On The Hill" is a bluegrass song.

"The Big City"


We have a joke in our family about going to the "Big City".
So on Sunday when we went to the "Big City" to hear a concert (which was SOOOOOO much fun by the way) I took the camera and took pictures of the "Big City".
They are kind of boring photos but as my mom says: "It's all about the memories!"
And I will always have the memories!
