I thought I would share something I made for one of my education classes. I saw something similar to it on Pinterest, but I changed some of it. I had to make a schedule that will be displayed in my future classroom. I wanted to do something different I looked all over websites seeing ideas what people have done, but i really wanted something where I could move the items around if needed. So, this what it ended up looking like.

What you will need to make it is:
-cookie sheet
-spray paint
-magnets
-letters (optional)

first I spray painted it this really pretty blue that I found at hobby lobby. I made all my labels and put them in the desired place with use of the magnets. Then I found the letters at hobby lobby.  I can not wait till I get to put it in use!

Well I just realized lately it has been awhile since I have done an update on here. But let me get you up to date. There is alot of changes going around the house in the last six months. My step dad got a new job in another state so we are trying to sell the house.... So keep us in your prayers about getting the house to sell.

Today was my official first day back from Chrsitmas break to school. Pretty good day I have a good feeling about this semester! I have gone back and forth with what major to go with in the last couple semesters. I was going to get my major in Teaching, but then I thought about graphic design. Well, long story short that wasn't the major for me so now I am doing Early Childhood Education and I hope I will stick with it this time!!

For the last three days it has rained and rained. Yesterday it started out pouring and then by 4 o'clock yesterday this is what showed up! First snow of 2013!  Its so Beautiful!  I hope everyone has a blessed day and if you got snow, enjoy it!! 

Family weekend full of memories!

This weekend me and my family went down to see my Great Grandmother. She lives in assisting living because she has Alzheimer's. The night we got in South Carolina we went right over to see her. She was so excited to see us! I noticed that she kept staring at me. She said she couldn't believe how big I've gotten. We think she is remembers me as a little girl so its hard to process that I'm 19 years old. She still remembers us and some things which is good. I was happy she rememberd ALL of us!
On Saturday we celebrated MawMaws birthday! She was really happy that everyone came out to spend time with her and have a good time!

 I got to see my cousin Erica we have always been close. We don't get to see each other much, but when we do we always have fun!

I am so glad me and my family got to go down to see my mawmaw i know everything meant a lot to her! I love spending time with my family!

So this is Love.

    Today, I went to a wedding. And if anyone knows me they know I absolutely LOVE weddings!! It is really weird for me to say that I have a friend from high school that is married, but I am extremely happy for them! It was a really unique wedding I love everything about it. They did all different things I have never seen before in a wedding. Instead of the wedding march going when she came down the aisle they played "This is Love" from Cinderella. That absolutely just describes her. It was really grand!

  The wedding really felt like a high school reunion, crazy as it sounds it really did. Me and my friend Jessica Driggers walked in and we saw all these people we went to school with. It was really great getting to see everyone that I haven't seen in a really long time! The cake they had was awesome i loved it they were so neat (:  

I wish them many great, awesome years together. I am so happy for the happy couple! Congrats Mr. and Mrs. Justin Fyan!!

It's over...? yes, that's crazy it came to fast. Don't you think so?

How crazy the end of my year has been! I've been so busy i haven't gotten to update! Well,i will catch you up to date! I finished my 20 page paper YAY! Shortly, after that i graduated on May 21, 2011. It was such an wonderful day! i loved every second of it. Even though i cried so much the whole time. Mostly, my tears were happiness, but others were because i knew me and my friends will go our separate ways no matter how hard we try. I love my senior class so much we seemed more like a family then classmates which I am so grateful for. 

If i had to tell someone about my senior year I would probably say it was the most stressful year I have ever had in a really long time. But when I look back at all the great times i had, the laughs and great memories I made with everyone I'm thankful for everyone that was part of my senior year because they made so much greater! (Now, i bet your wondering what I'll be doing for college. Well, i will share that at another entry!) (:

  But my new adventurer that I am going to be taking on is going to Tegucigalpa, Honduras! I will be leaving this coming Friday at 3 am (24th) and will return July 5th! It's going to be an awesome opportunity and I am so thrilled to see what God is going to do for this city!

I didn't think i would be able to make it on this trip because i was so low on money, but My Savior found me a way! He always finds a way and I'm so happy he is my father! Happy Fathers day to our heavenly father and to all the dads everywhere! Dads are such an important role in a child's life and it is so important that we show that we are grateful for what they do! But this is all for now i will share more on my trip and keep all of you guys updated! Please keep me and my team in your prayers while we are there! 

Beautiful, Beautiful

Today in mission trip meeting we were talking about preparing for the trip. I thought to myself I really want to be prepared this time. I don't want to slack off any, or get lazy, or too busy because there is always time for God.I really want God to use me while on this trip. I want to be able to really impact someone's life while I am there. 
So while I was doing my devotions, I ran across a couple of things while reading in John. John 1:6-9 "⁶ There was a man sent from God whose name was John. ⁷ He came as a witness to testify concerning that light, so that through him all might believe. ⁸ He himself was not the light; he came only as a witness to the light.

 ⁹ The true light that gives light to everyone was coming into the world.

As Christians we are like John. We are here to represent Jesus, to bring more to the Kingdom of Heaven. When we are in the world we are supposed to be separated from the world. But do we really look different from the world? Or do we act the same as others that are of the world. It's really difficult to not do things if the world sometimes because everything is so much fun. 

John 2:23-25 ²³ Now while he was in Jerusalem at the Passover Festival, many people saw the signs he was performing and believed in his name.^[a] 24 But Jesus would not entrust himself to them, for he knew all people. ²⁵ He did not need any testimony about mankind, for he knew what was in each person." 

What does this mean to you?

Coming to the end of my High School Road. :)

The next couple months for me are going to be crazy.  I'm getting ready for mission trip, and graduating all at the same time. I feel like I'm going in circles all the time. I'm trying to keep everything in order and keep myself from going sane because of all the things I need to do before I graduate. 

This year I am the co-editor of the yearbook so I'm constantly going in circles and bending my brain to think of new ideas. Thank goodness for my co-editor Janie and my teacher Mrs. Morton, I think all of us would go crazy if we didn't have each other. I have also been helping plan Spring Formal this year and we have been doing it in such a short period of time so we running around like crazy people! I've also been writing my 20 page paper, I'm almost done with it thank goodness, but it is still time consuming and I can't do everything else on my list until I get that done because it's the only way I can graduate. 

Some people have asked me if I will miss High School. Honestly, I really don't think i will. I will miss my friends and being able to see them everyday, but I am ready for a new adventure and be able to actually study something I want to study. Don't get me wrong high school is good till a point, but high school isn't rainbows, clouds, and flowers. Sometimes it is literally just stupid because the people that you have to hear complain about every little thing, but that is another bowl of wax. Anyways, I am ready for college and I am really excited to see what God is going to bring on in my life.
