My new fav bible verse!!

Hi everyone!
Ok, so while my mom was reading the gospel a couple days ago, I found my new 2nd favorite bible verse:

"For you are like unmarked graves, and men walk over you without realizing it."
-Luke 11:44


Haha, it's creepy but awesome! Shows that the bible has everything: Love stories (Song Of Solomon) Poems (Psalms), Dramatic stories (Job), Funny stories (Nehemiah 6-8!) and so on.

And my other favorite bible verse:

"Lord, I am not worthy to recieve you {under my roof}; but only speak the word and my servant will be healed."
-Matthew 8:8


I have many other bible verses that I like, but these are my top favorites. :)

Armadillo attack!

Ok, so I promised I would have a post today....
...so here it is.

A couple mintutes ago, I had to go take clothes off the line (AT NIGHT!) And Abigail (my lil sis) came with me. We had just gotten to the clothesline, when I heard this hssh hssh hssh. Abigail freaked out, and I thought it was just our cat, Sami. WELL. I WAS WRONG. I looked across at out garden, and there was this huge amadillo! So naturally, Abigail and I screamed our heads off and raaaaaan back into the house. So then Dad comes out with his rifle and goes out and shoots The Abominable Armadillo. But it got away!! NOO!! So NOW there is an armadillo on the loose! Keep your eyes open! Mwaha! :D

Oh, and Micah (my lil bro) went and got the clothes for me. THANK YOU MICAH!

RECIPE: Carrots and balsamic vinegar

I am a foodie.
There, I said it. I LOVE FOOD. Which is ironic because I'm so skinny.
But anyway, I looove to snack and here is one of my favrite snacks that I eat when Mom is around (the healthy kind).

CARROTS AND BALSAMIC VINEGAR (boring name)

2 large carrots
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
3 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste

Peel and slice carrots into "coins." Put in a small bowl and add the rest of ingredients. Enjoy!
NOTE: Variations: You can also add red or orange peppers, cut up, a tomatoe (cut up) and an avocado (you guessed it-cut up) If you want it to be a full meal, add lettuce, cut of chicken, and cut up apples.

Long time no post...

FIRE!!!

Ooh yes! A real fire. Right in our yard!

Let me explain.

It was...last Wednesday? Last week sometime. It was 115 degrees outside, and it was about 4:15. Raegan (my sister) went outside to get something out of our garage fridge (which doesn't work anymore, but that's not important) and she saw a bunchy of smoke on our back acres, and all our goats (we have 5) and our dog were running around by our barn. So Raegan called 911 (her first time) and Mom and me went to get the goats and our dog (Zeke). Then a guy and his daughter, who saw the smoke, came over to help us. I got to help put out the fire. !!! But I got a bit of smoke inhalation and dehydration after that-no hospital or anything. Then the Firemen came!! By now the fire on our back acres had spread to both of our neighbors lawns, and the firemen were busy with that. Then, around 5-ish, all the fire was out (but not really, because the next day, our neighbors tree burned down because of the extra fire). The firemen thought maybe the fire was from our electric fence-but it hadn't been working, so maybe not-or from exploded cow manure!!

Well.

Our first fire in Sanger....

WELCOME TO SANGER!! WATCH OUT FOR FIRES, AND HAVE A GREAT DAY.

Hedgehog sitting???

Ok, so my best friend Maddie went to Sea World, and she needed someone to petsit her hedgehog. Who was the most mature of her friends?

Me, of course.  :P

So I got *cough* had *cough* to take care of her hedgehog. But it wasn't that bad.....except for the fact that she has an Albino hedgehog. They have red eyes. She's still cute though. Oops, I never said her name: Miss Prickle Pants. Nice name. It suits her well, if you ask me.

So, that was my week.
