pig head? (that is a new insult I have quite frankly never heard of.)
memory moment:
My brother and I in wal-mart. Laughing.
dear bloggers and readers of my blog,

Sunday: The day began with some nice showers. My dad was still unsure if we would be going to Pymatuning with our friends and their boat as the morning began since the rain showered even heavier on our way to church. I arrived there shortly past 9, and my dad was drumming for the worship team. Even after worship, (which was fantastic), the air was still damp even though the showers had ceased. It looked as though our plans were no more. Honestly, I wanted to stay for church and then go to youth group. We did, to my satisfaction stay till the end of church and we got to do our dance team fundraiser and some necessary clean up in the back of the sanctuary. My mum and sister went shopping for a quick few needed items, and my dad, brother, and I all headed back to our house. After some grilled cheeses, my dad decided we would go to the boat dock. So off to PA we went. My hopes for youth group went out the window as we went on a boat ride and to a beach. Though it was fun, I was still disappointed. The good thing that came out of this, was that our good friends we finally got to see and socialize with whom we haven't fellowshipped with in about a year! On the beach we took a nice dip in the lake, and then swung on swings. This shortly ended once we noticed the wobbling of the wooden beam supporting us. I suppose it was ready for 300+ pounds. :/ On the way back home through Andover we stopped by Subway and had dinner. I was pretty exhausted by the time I came home, but ended up staying awake til 1.(!?)
Today:

I woke up at 9 today, probably since I didn't get to bed so late last night! My mum told us we would be going to Chardon to do grocery shopping and go to the library. We trekked to the library first. I haven't been to the library in quite a while. We have quite a few books here at my house, so I find it most convenient. However, I like going to the library when I get a chance. The Chardon one in particular. I only got one book out after a long time of looking since the series I am reading didn't have the second book. I suppose I should put it on should put it on hold since this is a reoccurring event. We didn't have a lot of time which was disappointing since I like to curl up in a chair towards the back and read or look at a magazine, but a little bit of time there is better than none. Off to Wal-mart we go! My brother wanted to look at lego's, so I agreed, but later took him down the crafting and sewing aisles to make up for me just standing there as he awes over the newest Indiana Jones set. While we were in the check out line I saw my old friend who I used to dance with. She seemed happy to see me and after chatting a little bit I thought I would better go. My mum wanted to get some apples to Sage's was one the way. The only problem? She passes it and pulls into one of their drive ways that leads thorough the orchard. After waiting quite some time for the traffic to clear my mom ended up going through the yard.(!) The apples are worth it. :) Our last stop was the nursery on the way home. A while back my dad found an old bike with baskets on either side. I had plans for putting flowers in them and creating some nice yard art. I got a half of a flat, and will try posting pictures when my creation is finished!
Now my sister is with my mom off to her doctor's appointment. She has to get her yearly physical, which is required for athletes to show that they are capable and healthy to do sports.
Have a blessed afternoon and evening. :) Also, a new week is upon us, so let's cherish every moment.

Much ♥ to all. laundry to do! Miss Organic Lady

So...did she DRIVE through the yard or WALK through the yard? I was clear on that. Driving through it gave me a great funny mental pic, though!

Love - Mrs. G
