Thankfulness

Throughout the year many people take the good things in life for granted and don't think about what life would be like without them. Thanksgiving is a good time to remember all the good things that have happend to us over the year. I am thankful for my family, my friends, God, all the food I have eaten and will eat, and for the house I live in.

Thanksgiving Meals

My favorite food to eat on Thanksgiving is homemade Apple pie. I love apple pie. My mom has the best recipe. It is so sweet and juicy. I love it, but mom will only make it for Thanksgiving and Christmas. I have to wait all year to enjoy a nice piece of apple pie. Life is rough.

Rain

Rain is God's way of cleansing the Earth. When it rains a lot at one time it means that there is a lot of sin that needs to be washed away. When it hardly rains at all that means there is little sin that needs to be washed away. Sometimes it is God's way of showing us how great and magnificent he is. When it rains after a long drought all the flowers come back to life and make the Earth beautiful again. After sin has destroyed us all we have to do is ask God to let the rain wash it all away; ask for forgiveness. Then we will become beautiful again, just like the flowers.

State

"Congratulations you made it to STATE!!". Every athlete dies to hear those few words. I'm no exception. To be able to attend a state meet is a huge honor. It's not just a race, it is an accomplishment. You can't just say you are going to state you for have to work for it. You have to endure pain, work through all the muscle cramps and soreness, through the heat, wind, mud, rain, snow, sleet, hail, thunder, lightening; everything imaginable. It's not a race, it's an accomplishment.
I'm so excited to be going to state this weekend. I have worked very hard for it. six months of training has really paid off. State will be a lot of fun. We get to run and then go to supper and then we get to do whatever we want. Which means PARTY!! I can't wait it will be so much fun!!

Miley Cyrus Concert

Last night was so fun. I was lucky enough to experience a once in a life time chance of seeing Miley Cyrus in concert. I was a very good concert. The special effects were amazing. When she sang Fly on the Wall she flew out over the crowd. Another song she sang was Rock and Roll on this song she was sitting on a motorcycle and they picked her up and flew her around the stadium. It was amazing. My seat was on the side of the stage. Normally you wouldn't think it would be a good seat, but it really was. I was able to see back stage where she was getting ready and was entering the stage. I was very glad I was able to go.
