life update!!!

hello friends!!!! can you believe it's halfway through october?! 2021 flew by sooo fast!!! 

i haven't posted since may, and i also haven't done a life update since... forever! that's what this post today is for ; a little (well kinda big) life update from march-october! enjoy : ) 

 

***MAKE SURE TO CHECK OUT THE QUESTIONS AT THE END***

march:  march 3, a day we will never forget! it was a fun day consisting of friends and on a feild trip for school. after our little trip we decided to go to our family friends house to have dinner and hang out. we ate and when we were finished with dinner, we went to play. we were sliding down their basement steps (which we normally do evrytime we come to their house) wih gymnastics mats on the steps and couch cushions on th bottom for safe landing, it wasn't such a safe landing for me... i slipped when i went to land because i had socks on and fell and all my weight went onto my left knee. till this day i still have knee pain, 7 months later. the next week we were plainning to go to florida for vacation...great... hurt right before vaction : ( florida was a fun vaction though! we saw a lot of family in the 10 days we were there. it was a great trip, one i'll never forget <3 

april:  the days in april consisted of more knee pain, just tried to ignore it. (to let evryone know there was no broken bones, but we never actually figured out what was wrong. i was told lots of differnt things.) the days also had school, crafts and relaxing (both my favroite)! 

may: a few of my friends had birthdays in may so i made them gifts, which they loved! a lot of the gifts i made for them came from my etsy. the days also consisted of school, youth activites, and enjoying God's creation. 

june: june!!!! a great month...because it's SUMMER! from june 6-13 we went camping at a very friendly  campground. on the 11th of  june, i turned 13! that day was so fun! the last two days camping i spent most of my time with some of my friends from when i was in school that were also at the campground, we even had a sleepover, in the camper! the next week of june we went to new york, which was a six hour drive. a long drive. in new york we went fishing, out to eat, shopping, and even to niagra falls. the falls were beautiful! if you ever get a chance to go to new york i definetly recommend going to the falls.  at the end of june into july i had a church summer camp for 5 days. camp is something i really look forward to in the summer. it's a great time to be in God's creation and to be with other believers. there are a lot of memories i have that were made a camp.  can't wait for next year.

july: i think july was a pretty good month, a new cousin was born, my mom had her birthday, and i hung out with friends. i remember july going by pretty fast! 

august: i went on another annual vaction with my step moms family to deep creek, maryland. we stay for a week, rent a house, and RELAX! we went tubing on the lake a few days, we even got my step-grandmother on the tube which she really enjoyed!! tubing is my favrorite part of vaction. we eat out, cook at the lake house, and just enjoy our time with all our family. when i got back from vaction with my dad and step mom/family, we started school the week i got back, and went back up to new york the next week! we met new people that were very friendly at the campground we were staying at and hung out with them. we also spent a lot of time at lake ontario and i got a lot of beautiful pictures i hope to share in another post. 

september: youth started back up on wedensday evenings, i was cleared to play volleyball, even though we were halfway through the season, and we celebrated my brother porter's 6th birthday! september was a really fun month that i enjoyed! 

october: it's now october! almost halfway through the month! i have had a lot of volleyball games and youth events, and even a craft show that has kept me busy through the month! this week is the last week of volleyball, then championships. 

now that school has started and we have gotten into a schedule, kinda, i hope to be able to blog more and even get a posting schedule!
