First Week of Summer

I can't believe the first week of summer is over! I did alot this week! I feel like I fit enough for a whole month into the week. Of course I spent some time with my parents. My dad and I watched plenty of phillies games this week as we always do and we are starting to get use to being home together all the time which trust me took some getting use to. Last Sunday was fathers day and I am so thankful to have such a great Dad who goes through so much but still will do anything for me. I can't ask for more then that. Sunday evening my mom and I went to the opening concert of Glenwood Avenue Music which is a new music school my flute teacher is opening! The concert was great!!! Then on Monday I helped my friend Laura with a project and had flute lessons. It was a pretty laid back day. Tuesday I relaxed and just chilled out at home. It was much needed! Wednesday I went to crafts with my grandmother which I do on wednesdays in the summer. My grandmother is part of a group of older woman who does crafts and then sells them to raise money for LifePath and Ridge Crest which is places for people with special needs. In the summer I go and help do crafts and in the fall when they have their craft show I go and help too. I have a great time making the crafts and its some quality time with my Grandmother. Thursday I tie dyed all day long. My friends Erin and Jenn came over to help. We tie dyed shirts and bandanas for the girls I am going to be a leader for at a summer day camp later this year. It was a ton of fun to tie dye and spend some time with friends. Friday I went to a graduation party and then slept over at my friends house. It was a great time! Summer is in full swing and I'm loving every minute of it. Although summer is always bittersweet for me it helps me relaxe and spend some quality time with my Dad and people I love.

A Special Place

It has been way to long since I have written. My senior year has taken over my life! Since I last wrote school has started and Senior year is going much better than Junior year ever did. I love my classes that I am taking of course with exceptions here or there and I am just so thrilled it is my senior year I think I will be able to look past any negative situation in some positive form. Marching band and School are taking up all my free time. There is no time to be messing around, I am at school, doing homework, at a rehearsal, lesson or practicing it seems. So to take a break from the crazy month that it has been my family and I are going to be traveling to our favorite place! We will be spending the weekend in Vermont. There are so many memories there with my family and I feel like a part of me grew up there. Every winter my family would travel up there to ski until skiing became impossible for my family. With Dad having Alpha one of the things he truly loved to do has been taken aw...

Day 11- A Picture of your Best Friend Since I will be away this weekend I have decided that I will post for the next two days awhile! My Mom and I! My best friend in the whole world is my Mom! No matter what life brings shes always the one there helping me to get through it! I can tell her everything!! She always puts me first and always is there for me!! I look up to her everyday! Love you mom! "A mother is the truest friend we have, when trials heavy and sudden, fall upon us; when adversity takes the place of prosperity; when friends who rejoice with us in our sunshine desert us; when trouble thickens around us, still will she cling to us, and endeavor by her kind precepts and counsels to dissipate the clouds of darkness, and cause peace to return to our hearts." ~Washington Irving

For Nothing is Impossible with God!- Luke 1:37

"You are exactly where God wants you to be at   this very moment. Every Experience is part of   his divine plan." This quote has hit home with me the last few days. Its words speak to me. There are so many days when I question why things are happening in my life or why things can't just work out a little bit easier but this quote reminds me that they are working out a little bit easier then I like to think they are. It reminds me that everything I do and all the experiences I go through are part of a bigger plan and a bigger picture. Some experiences I never question because they are fun and don't bring me any emotional upset or pain. It's when the difficult experiences come that I begin to forget this quote. I begin to forget what my life really is about. It is not just that bad experience that defines me. There is so much more that defines me and my life. I am defined by the way I react to the situations rather than by the situations themselves. ...
