Free-fallin'

For some reason, I have a fascination with waterfalls. I LOVE them! So here are a few picts for your entertainment! ENJOY!

We went to the zoo

We (Brother and I) went to the Fort Worth zoo on Friday (7.10) and it was HOT, but we had fun. Brother kept asking me if I took as many picts as I did at the aquarium, so I took TONS. Here are a few to keep you tide over for the weekend!

So far in picts

Here are a few pictures to tide you over until I have time to edit/weed out picts and actually do something with them. The below picts are from making cookies for our fire department to a morning (w/bro and I) at the aquarium plus a view picts from Downtown Dallas. So enjoy!

Next up...Friday's adventures from the zoo!

I see nothing wrong with that

** I may spell words wrong, use spell check religiously, and talk my thoughts out...but I see nothing wrong with that!

** I may have to fabric soften all my clothes to make them "soft," read up side down, and have my letters move around the page...but I see nothing wrong with that.

** I may only eat certain foods due to texture/taste, smell my fingers to calm down, or be unable to walk on the balance beam...but I see nothing wrong with that.

** I may loose track of time, have to study 3x as hard as the other college student, or sleep much less...but I see nothing wrong with that.

** I may become frustrated and vent, rant, or gripe, but I see nothing wrong with that.

** I may have Dyslexia, Dysgraphia, Sensory Processing Disorder, Food Allergies, and other issues...but I see nothing wrong with that.

** I may have issues, but I see nothing wrong with that. Everyone has issues!

You may be wondering my point to this whole post and it is simple! I see nothing wrong the way HE made me. Sure I may struggle a little to learn or to understand concepts, but I see nothing wrong with that!

Psalm 139:13-16 states "For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be."

I see nothing wrong with the way HE created me! HIS works are WONDERFUL and MIGHTY!

Photo blog hop: Oh brother

This is my sweet, handsome (& younger) brother who I love and adore. He may always be bigger and stronger than I am, but I love him with my whole heart! He can pretty much ask me to do anything and I will! His smile fills the room with joy and I am proud to call him my "brother."

NOT ME Monday

New button, but still the same old NMM tradition. MckMama held a contest to see who could design a new button for the Not Me! Monday posts and this one won. So to see more NMMs in style, click on the button above. Ok, ok...enough blab...more on what I did not do this week:

** I did not love all the entries for the new Not Me Monday design. Seriously some people just have talent! See all the entries HERE

** I did not slip in the shower while shaving, do a little jig to recompose myself and then continue to shower & laugh at myself the rest of the night/week.

** I did not tell the twitter world, in the wee hours of Friday morning, that I was mistaken when I thought MST and CST (time zones) were two hours apart. I know they are only an hour apart now...thankyouverymuch! I did not also blame this moment as my "blonde moment" of the day! (No pun intended)

** I did not die laughing when my sister told me she was "the human Harry Potter" and she could "fix my (nonexistent) voice with the blink of (her) eye." I am MUCH better now...thank you!

** I did not learn how to take a hint with my brother this past week. Mom, dad, and sister are out of town Wednesday-Friday, so I will be at his beck-and-call beckon call during the day. We are not planning to go to the aquarium, zoo (maybe depending on heat), out to dinner, and to the movies. I am not so excited about these plans and can not wait :)

** When I asked brother what it would be like with no mom, dad, or sister, he answered "quiet" and I did not laugh really hard on that one.

** Even though my workplace (church) is closed on Monday, due to the 4th; I still do not have to work, since I am running the "show."

** Brother has not decided to take it upon his self to teach me how to play Halo. Oh boy...not him. My first "lesson" was not last night and he did not joyfully say that "you are not the worst person I have helped." Thanks brother! We will not spend the week learning together! Oh Lord...give us both patience.

So there you have it. An edition of Not Me Monday. Simple, quick, and FREE therapy for the week! Hope you all had a GREAT Fourth of July weekend! Enjoy your Monday!!

Notice anything different?

OOOPS! She did it again! Drama Mama gave me 3 columns! Thanks Hollie!

Also-I am rearranging my blog a bit and adding a blog roll too. If you want to be on it...leave me a comment!
