Changes of Life

Tons of things have happened since my last post. My family and I have moved from Washington to Virginia. (we are a military family) It took a long time to drive across the USA. We are really excited because we rented a house with an in-ground pool. I've also started high school. My siblings and I just started playing soccer. We had our second games today. We are attending a church called Harvest Assembly. Many changes happen in our family, some good, some hard ours are both. God has brought us to Virginia for a reason, and I can't wait to find out what it is.

My day at the beach

On July 30, my mom, sister and brothers, me, and a bunch of our friends went to Jetty Island. One could go out really far and still be able to stand up. our friends Nick and Alex dug and dug in the sand until they struck water. They then stood in the hole and we buried them in sand to their neck. It only took them about 30 seconds to get out! Brady (Nick's 11 year old brother) was sitting crisscross applesauce when we buried him in sand. It took him 8min to get out! It's really fun to go to the beach with friends.

Day 30: A motto or philosophy

A motto I like to live by is “Learn from yesterday; live for today; hope for tomorrow.” If you make a mistake, you can learn from it, and hope that tomorrow will be better. If it isn't, then maybe the next day will be. Some days are bound to be better than others.

Day 29: hopes, dreams, and plans for the next 365 days

On August 4, my family and I are moving across the country to Virginia. The house we rented has a really nice pool. We will attend Harvest Assembly of God. I also have been writing to two people in order to get to know them. I'm excited about all the new movies that are coming out: Turbo, Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2, Despicable Me 2, Monsters University, and Rio 2. I plan to collect as many adventures in odyssey albums as I can over the next few years.

Day 28: a scar you have and its story

I don't have any scars (yet) but I can tell you about my dad's scars: Before I was born, my dad was riding home work on his bike. He never told me exactly what happened, but all I know is that he was hit by a car and his arm went through the window of the car. The helmet he was wearing cracked in half (saving his life) and therefor is very strict about my sibalings and I wearing helmets when we ride our bikes. My dad was airlifted to a hospital and treated. Even though he almost suffered from a broken neck, all he had was a broken rib and the glass in his arm (which caused the scars) I'm really glad that my dad suffered no life changing injuries on that day.

Day 27: a Physical Feature you love

"I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made. You're works are wonderful. I know that full well." -Psalm 139:14

I don't have a favorite feature. I love every single part of my body because it was made by God himself.
"He knit me in my mother's womb." -Psalm 139:13

Day 26: A childhood memory

One memory I have is when I was 5,6, or 7 years old. We had a hamster whose name was Domino. One morning, I remember waking up before everyone else and going down stairs. Domino's cage was empty! I woke up the family, and we looked and looked without success. Finally, mommy said that it was time for breakfast. We opened the pantry, and there was Domino in the oatmeal! Looks like Domino had an exciting adventure! That was a very funny childhood memory.
