Happy Easter!

Tank/Cardigan: Target, Skirt, Kohl's, Shoes: Target

Hi lovelies! Happy Easter to you! Today and yesterday have been a total blurr. 

Yesterday bright and early 6:15 actually, I hauled my butt up to the convention center to watch my lovely big sis play in a volleyball tournament. 

She's pretty awesome. 

And then last night was pretty normal.  You know, my neighbor came over and then he and my brother danced to Taylor Swift in my bedroom.  Just another normal Saturday night.  And I helped my mom with the food prep. 

Yum. 

More on Easter tomorrow. Right now, I'm tired and I'm going to bed. TTYL.

He Died For Me. I Live For Him.

Don't get me wrong, I love peeps, and the Easter Bunny, and candy, and chocolate.  But for me, it all doesn't matter in the end. 

Roughly 2000 years ago one Man, showed love greater than anyone could ever fathom.  He died on a cross. 

Not because, we are great people, and we are worthy of it, he died for our sins. 

And on the 3rd day, he rose. 

That is what I believe.

Photography, Photoshoot, and.... Outfit Post?

Sunday afternoon, Hannah and I had a fun little photoshoot, and I have to say, Sunday was a milestone in my blogging life.  Why?  Because I realized I should outfit post.  And that I love photography even though I suck at it.  

Romper: Kohl's, Necklace: gift, Earrings: Forever 21

Skirt: Target, Cardigan/Tank: ? Necklace: gift 

So, this is going to be my first outfit post! Yay! And I also tried to be a photographer. Fail.

This was the only relatively-cool looking picture. 

This picture is great not because of my mad photography skills, but because I seriously think my 9 year old sister could model.  But yes, I did take this picture... just incase you think it's awesome and all. :)

And I don't know why I think this picture is cool.... I just do.

Yes, this is like the one up there but take a closer look cause it isn't.  Ha.

So that was my attempt at photography when my sister here, is amazing at it.  Hannah, just to clarify that. 

It was hard deciding which ones to put up cause they're all so good. 

And here are a few pics we took just goofing off.  I love my siblings. 

I tried to make her look at the sun.  Didn't work out too well. 

I told her she looked dead so she thought the flowers would help...

they didn't...

so I sat on her. 

Henry likes to hit people with sticks.  I don't like that very much.

We're attractive. 

Rebecca wanted to be a photographer.

Poor Bex just wanted a picture....

but Henry wanted to sit on her head. 

Just another normal Sunday afternoon at my house. 

Ta ta for now loves.  Have a happy(or not?) Good Friday, and a wonderful Easter!

Life is...

I'm gonna change this one up a bit...

Life gives you parents to teach you what NOT to do in a marriage.

She's indecisive. She can't decide.

Yes that's me.  The one that can't decide.  But anyways... remember here when I said that sometime in the near future I would come up with a new blog name? As you can see, today is the near future.  I have redone the ol' bloggy and come up with something that is *gasp* original. 

Thoughts?

And I am not sure if I should change the URL to it as well.  Hmm.  So, I'm thinking I'll put that one to a vote.  To change the URL or not to change the URL?

Life is...

hard when it seems like everything is falling apart and there is nothing you can do to fix it.

Hey kids, long time no see!

Yes, I am aware that I haven't posted in over a week and I am deeply sorry.

So tomorrow morning bright and early I am going to Rebacca's soccer game.  They're the cool cats. Adorable right?  And then I might be going to the talent show at school (North Hills - old school from last years/school I'm am going to next year).  And then it's off to dinner for my cutie cousin Stephanie's birthday.

...that's her;)

Then Sunday will be filled with a whole lot of nothingness.  Going to Palm Sunday Mass of course, and then I think I'll take a nap.  And read a book.  That's all for now. 

Love Always

It's Over.

My season, I mean. And I am THRILLED! Completely.  I had my state competition on Sunday and I have to say it didn't go as well as I had hoped. See, I whacked my foot on Tuesday (not yesterday silly, LAST Tuesday) and it was swollen to the size of my face. No lie. And so I didn't really get to train vault or floor all week and so my scores were lower on those events than they normally are. But, here is a little peek at my gymnastics, this pic was taken at state on Sunday.

And besides the fact that I'm as pale as an albino, it's not too bad, considering most of the pictures they take are awful. They always catch you at the most awkward positions. 

But, after all that stressing, it was a good meet! We just really had fun, and my coaches were all laughing hysterically at one another. It was fun.  And now I'm a level 8! Woot! Finally. Seriously, I've been doing level 7 for waaaayyyyyyy too long. Because I hurt my back one season, and I couldn't compete another time, ugh, but I'm so happy I'm done, and a level 8 now! 

Love Always
