Chickens like the Dickens!!! (mice too)

VERSE OF THE DAY: Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need. Matthew 6:33

MOVIE OF THE DAY: NARNIA: the LION, the WITCH, and the WARDROBE

Last night Sticks caught his 25th mouse from our garage. *yeah* I don't go in there anymore. He got a hundred dollar bill for it and is quite happy with killing them now that he isn't DIRECTLY killing them. When we were going to the feast at church on Wednesday, he told us to wait in the house so he could take care us the dead mice. We were only too happy to comply while he reset the traps. Ok, then we get the all-clear. We go out to the car and he's still in the garage. SNAP! "Got another one!!!" Much rejoicing by boys (and girls for that matter!). He begins to again reset the trap. "Mom, I think I need to stay home!!!" LOL He did and caught a few more mice. How'd they all get in there? We've got boxes in that garage and the guys are getting them out!!!!!!

Now Lane, Mayfee, Jessjess, and Princess Bird have chicken pox and are called "the chickens"! We're gonna have a chicken party today. I gotta think what we're gonna do, but it's gonna be funfunfun! I'll tell ya how it goes. Lane's mostly in charge of watching the chickens because she's mostly better and Zeke is excluded from their company. The chickys are pretty happy for sick kids! I made some brownies yesterday for the party...but of course they didn't last:P Little tip: Brownies make chicken pox feel all better!!! Worked good last night!!!

We've been packing away!!! Better do that now!!!

Of Mice and Men

Sticks is our Man of the House while Dad's gone and today we had need of a man. Apparently two mice think our garage is the best thing since sliced bread and won't get out. ARG!!!! :0 I was actually getting a box out of the car, then saw a mouse and figured the box could wait. It was Good-Bye Garage!!!!!!!!!! We got these "no cheese" mouse traps. You don't need cheese because there is already this plastic, no-scent, neon-yellow, square thing with holes in it. You could be a starving mouse and still know that if there are fish in trees, then that is a real piece of cheese:) Sticks is smarter than whoever made up those things, and put some cheese in there anyway. The mice took it and ran. Deardearme. Tried again and took the BB gun this time. Killed it. HOORAY!!!! The girls' hero!!! He was happy he killed it, but kinda sad that he had to kill it. If they would leave people's houses alone they wouldn't die so often! There's still one in there, but if he's got half a brain he'll leave!!! Beware mouse!!!:P

Swords Galore, Friends in Love, Sold House, etc.

VERSE OF THE DAY: Those who know your name trust in you, for you, O LORD, do not abandon those who search for you. Psalm 9:10

The Wingycuzins just came over and brought a bunch of swords they made for us!!! Wowee cool it is! Mine was actually one I made for JA and he broke it, but it was was remade. I mended the Prophetess after her most unfortunate accident and allowed her to have a last battle against Jerjerrod and die an honorable death. It was magnificence!!!!!!!! Well, well anyway after moving boxes from the basement to the parlor and eating ice cream, there were many sword battles, fort sieges, and betrayals. CAPTAIN SPY actually betrayed me!!!! But he swore back into my service afterward so we're all cool:) Played XBOX a little bit and beat Jerrjerrod at RED ALERT 2 which felt very nice after losing for the last 7 trillion times!!!

You all probably know this, but two awesome people, Sir Luke the Impossible and Lady Lana the Adorable are now courting and very much in love from what I understand! :P I am SOOOOO excited for them!!! I knew it would happen someday! First go to http://musingsofaservantprincess.blogspot.com and scroll down a little to get her take on the story, then go to http://lukewarrior.blogspot.com to get his. It's great and beautiful!

While I was off blogger, Jdude and Sticks got chickenpox!!! Now Lane has them. Deardear me. I spose I've gotta get them sometime!!! We also sold our house! Cool!-ish. We've got to be out by the 10th of next month!!! WhOoOoO.

There is a great video down on the bottom today. Check it out!

Jesus, you are truly all I want, you're all I need, you're everything.

The Fire Fell!!!!!!!!!

VERSE OF THE DAY: (This was actually the Verse of the Day on the Fan the Flame day! What a coincidence!) So we tell others about Christ, warning everyone and teaching everyone with all the wisdom God has given us. We want to present them to God, perfect in their relationship to Christ. Colossians 1:28

Fan the Flame was amazing!!!!!!!!!!! The pastors was wonderful, the band was awesome, and everybody involved did an outstanding job. God really moved in a lot of people including me I believe. Wait till Warrior of the Dawn posts about it and find out how many people got saved. Their great youth pastor Dusty made a great point about when Jesus washed the disciples feet. He said if you have come to Christ, you have already been cleaned. But as we go through life our feet get dirty when we fall away a little or get distracted. So...we need our feet washed!!! I guess I knew that, but last night that certain way he put it really hit home. One of the other pastors, Chris, did a great message on the cross. It's not a pretty picture like on all the necklaces. It's a price that was paid. The Luke, Daniel, and Trevor band was flawless and music says so much to me! I didn't know a lot of the songs, but there wasn't one bad one!!! My class pastor, Teddy did an excellent job on a lesson in sharing your faith with the world. The skit people were great! I saw a lot of friends and don't forget food!:P But at the very end everybody went outside when it was very dark, and Dusty told the story of Elijah when God sent fire to the altar to prove that He was God above Baal. And fire did come down on the altar, but Dusty didn't call it from God:) It was very well done and the whole thing just HIT HOME. I'm so happy I got to go! One of the songs....um...I can't think of the rest of it except for the last little lines that I've been singing ever since I left: " I will follow you. This world has nothing for me. I will follow you." It was all astounding, everything Nan made it out to be, and the Lord loved it very much I know. I love you Jesus!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Fan the Flame was a great reminder of how outstandingly much you love me!

Off for Fan the Flame

If I am still here I will be going to Fan the Flame revival at the Branch church on the 25th. I won't be on the internet or e-mail until then to prepare and focus my mind on God better without that distraction. Talk to you in a couple of weeks!!!

Cooking Away and Things Blowing Up

VERSE OF THE DAY: Live in harmony with each other. Don't be too proud to enjoy the company of ordinary people. And don't think you know it all! Romans 12:16

MOVIE OF THE DAY: JACOB

Lucy and I kicked some butt in the kitchen this morning. We made spaghetti sauce, grated and froze a bunch of zucchini and made some muffins with it, ground wheat, froze grapes, and did 2 rounds of dishes. Whoa, it was hot in there!!!!! It's hard to do that in the summer. We listened to the radio the whole time.

I'm gonna write a few letters in a few minutes. Do yall write them, or type them? I type much faster than I write and my handwriting is no good so.....today, I shall type! I have this cool wax seal thing Lady Boo and Cole gave me I shall use. It involves FIRE to melt it, which gives the whole thing a little.....umph.

Speaking of fire....I was innocently being a good girl and vacuuming the family room. Ka-POW! Vacuum noise stops and sparks fly. A couple seconds later a flash of light from the outlet area. "O-kay?" says I. I look over at the outlet place. The cord's plugged in, no problem there. I step back and painfully experience where the problem IS. The cord busted off of the vacuum cleaner and I am standing on the burning hot end! YOW!!!!!!!! Out of the 8 feet of cord I had to step on the 2 inches of burny part. So that is how a person can burn their foot. What is going to blow up next? I'll tell ya, the outlet where the microwave is plugged in. O-kay? We plugged it into a different one. Dear me. At least we have a spare for everything that blows up!

Lucy, Mom, and I started that movie up there last night. It's alright so far. Sean Bean, stellar actor, is in it as Esau. He's ok here, but somebody else could've pulled it off too I think. So far. I haven't finished it.

Last night Lucy made dinner. Hot dogs in sauerkraut. Cool. She made it a big feast and I made some brownies. Everything was yummy!

I HAVE A CAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Plymales came over last night for dinner and they gave me my car!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm so happy!!!!!!!!!!! It needs paint, but other than that it ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm about to go out and clean out the inside, see if the radio works, etc. Mom took me for a drive, but she drove not me. Heehee. I'm saving up for paint and I'm gonna replace the seat covers, the radio, the mats, maybe put in a CD player and all that jazz. Mom said I could replace the whole dash, but I bet that is ex-pen-SIVE! It needs transmission fluid before I drive it though. I'm working on a cute name... any suggestions? My car is a girl by the way. Here's some pictures:

I'm about to change out of my church clothes and go clean it!!!!!!!!!!! Farewell, my friends!!!!

God is awesome Today!

He is!!! Well, he's awesome all the time, but he's especially awesome today. I'm just thinkin that today!!!!! Can't put my finger on exactly why, but hey!!!

Don't know if y'all noticed, but down, down, down at the very bottom of my blog there are videos set up. I change them more often than I post. Right now there is Lord of the Rings to RED music, so hurry up and watch it Nan and then tell me so I can change it!!!

Bad day for me at the Wingys yesterday. Just kidding, not really. But Moff Jerrjerrod won every game we played!!!!!!!!! He actually won fair at AGE OF EMPIRES with a respectful move. But STAR WARS TRIVIA....He won it!!!!!!!!!! I have NEVER, EVER lost at that game. I've played well over 20 times and now I lost it because he got better and I did something incredibly dumb. ARG! And now those guys expect me to direct, host, plan, and film their movie script!!! Go jump in the lake! I will though;P Heehee! I'm not that mad:) God is awesome today!!!!!!!!!

My Sense & Sensibility movie came in yesterday. It was truly new and sealed. The people didn't lie or cheat me or anything. I'm probably gonna watch it with Lucy after I clean the shower.

Our girls' bathroom is the dirtiest of all the bathrooms!!! Why??? It gets cleaned just as often as the rest of them, and we don't mistreat it or do anything that nobody else does. Mom doesn't know, Lucy doesn't know, I don't know, but it's dirty anyway. Oh the mysteries of life.

Hurry and watch that video Nan I'm ready to change!!!! I have an awesome christian comedian on hold!

God is awesome!!!!

Happy August!!!

VERSE OF THE DAY: If you need wisdom, ask our generous God, and he will give it to you. James 1:5




BOOK OF THE DAY: the RED BADGE of COURAGE


1 more month till Fall!!! Can't wait. The air is so thick here you have to take scissors and cut yourself a way through!!!:)
Ya know I've had this blog for over a year! Whoa! I wonder how long I'll have it? Maybe till I have kids!!! Heehee! But when I get married I'll change the mt part of the site to m-whatever.
The nose piece popped off my glasses and I don't know where it is. I'll need to take that to Wal-Mart.
Started that book of the day and like it so far! I think Dad described it as "the best novel in the whole world". And if you were gonna read Dr Jekyll & Mr. Hyde, don't. Not worth the time and when the other stories in there got a little...supernatural I quit it. I miss Lane and Sticks and Dad:( Dad couldn't get a flight to CO, so he's staying with Grandparents T and Lane & Sticks. I think he's gonna drive up with them.
I like the verse of the day today! He'll give it to us! I think we all could use some wisdom huh? Here's something Warrior of the Dawn wrote and I went, "Wow! So true and awesome!" so I'll stick it on here:

I serve a King whom I have never seen. I had spit in His face and rebelled against His rule, thus earning the penalty of death. But He sent His Son to die in my place and then adopted me as His child. Everything I do, everything I am, it all comes back to that. He isn't just number one in my life; He's everything. At least, He should be; too often I still rebel against Him and break His heart. But He loves me anyway. Even cooler than the fact that He does all that for me is that He's willing to do all that for you, too. If you want that, just call on the Name of Jesus.

God Bless!
