SIMEON or Sims (as I call him)

I was just looking through some photos and saw these two of Simeon and I decided to share them. I love the first one the most!!! But the second one is good to. :)

Once upon a time..... (Our canoe trip)

My aunt and one of my cousins came down from NY about two weeks ago. They stayed with us for a few days, and while they were here we went to the Rainbow river club with the Mitchells. We decided to go kayaking and canoeing on the river. Very bad idea!!!! Yeah, I love kayaking, but canoeing is dreadful. Hannah and I stood patiently by while everyone else grabbed the kayaks and left us the canoe. Later we decided we should have fought for the kayaks, but it was a little to late. I figured 'how hard can it be?'.... I mean, I've paddled a canoe before and it didn't seem that bad. Well, whatever we did wrong, (or maybe there was something wrong with the canoe!) we ended up going in circles. The thing wouldn't go straight or turn to the right. We got some advice shouted to us by the adults on the dock, but it was not helpful..... needless to say that canoe trip did not last long. We finally decided after a short time to head back. I still love kayaking but I don't think I'll be canoeing for a little while. LOL. Here are some pictures from our short trip. There a bit grainy but I hope you enjoy them. :)

Esther, David (our cousin), and Jesse

Naomi and Sarrah

-Ralph Waldo Emerson

Day 29: Hopes, dreams and plans I have for the next 365 days.

Well, we never know what God has in store for us in the coming year or years and I'm not going to tell you some of my hopes and dreams cause they are personal, and also I have heard it said that if you want to hear God laugh tell him your plans. But I will tell you a few general things that I would love to have happen in the next 365 days.

1: Our family get a new house.

2: Have Naomi meet a guy and get married.

3: Have a guy who is interested in me and wanting to marry me.

4: Make some good money.

5: And do a recording of my singing.

Day 28: A scar I have and it's story.

I have many scars I could tell you about such as one on my lip from when my brother let go of a baseball bat and several an my hands from when a friend tried to help me ride my bike. But the one I'm going to tell you about is the one on my head.

I don't know if it's still there because I can't see it, but I imagine it probably is. It happened when I opened the refrigerator door. One of the sharp knives we used to keep up there was not put far enough back and it fell down hitting me right across the head with the sharp side. Amazingly it didn't start to bleed right away, but when it did it bled pretty badly. Mom super glued it up and it took a while to heal. The worst part was it chopped off a good section of hair. :(

Another one!!!
