My Flower Belt!

Hello family and friends! Hope you are all having a beau-tiful Sunday! This weekend us Whitehousers have:

cleaned the house
crafted and watched movies
went to Walmart, Joanns, and Barnes and Noble
and eaten food. So much food….

So, over the last few days I’ve been working on a flower belt. It has been soooo much fun to make!

They were all glued on to a ribbon and tied a bow in the back :)

Love you all!,

I Have a New True Love

and it is this:

pBBW1-9122460v275

Bah! It is glorious and I love it!

Heaven must have Bath and Body Works there. So everything smells good :)

Now, on to the real matters at hand. First order of business: I finished school! and seminary! Woohooooooooooooooooo!!! It feels good to be caught up and not have classes. It is weird though too. And uncelebrated. I kind of wish I got to walk with the graduates or something. My graduation celebration isn’t even going to be till winter break once I’ve started college. Oh well.

I’m trying to find a new laptop for college. I think I am getting a Dell Inspiron.  Nice :) I’m undecided on if I should buy a printer or not? It would probably be useful but would everyone bug me about using it all the time? Your thoughts?

Finally, I finished reading the Book Thief! First book I’ve read for fun in over a year and it was sooo good! I don’t want to leave any spoilers though so I’ll stop there. I’m reading The Hiding Place next. I’ve been assured by Whitney and Mom (about a bajillion times :) that it won’t disappoint. I hope you have a good day everyone!

Love,

Chelsey

Happy Day, Shout Hooray!

Hi Guys!

So, I’m not sure whats going on, but today is just an awesome day.

Could it be all the pretty flowers outside?

Or this song playing again and again in my head?

Maybe even the fact that I made more cupcakes…

I love my Parents!

On Saturday, Mom, Dad, and I went to the Menifee lake after the BBQ to take some pictures. The lake was gorgeous and taking pictures was a lot of fun. I love Mom and Dad. They are so awesome :)

Whitney helped me edit this photo on Picnik today. It was so fun! I’ve played with lots more photos the rest of the night. More coming soon of the BBQ and lake from yesterday.

Oh! Dad hurt his collar bone (we think it’s broken) at the BBQ yesterday. Even missing work tomorrow :O  . Please pray for him. Thanks!

Hi Everyone!

Shari, Mike, and Porter came to visit this last week. It was a lot of fun! Mike and Porter had run a half-iron man Saturday morning, and then they came down to our house from there. Poor Mike was so sunburned!

So, when they were here, we chilled at the house a lot while they rested. We ate lots of good food and went swimming a lot! Swimming was definitely the most fun part because it was hot! The puppies went swimming a lot too. They all like it too, except for Brawny. They were such good friends!

Baby was moping around after they left. She expressed her sadness with lots of extra barking and piles of poop. Poor little girl.

 

Oh, we saw the movie Hoodwinked 2 as well. It was really dumb. No one liked it. Oh and Porter was a crazy driver. Shari warned me not to get in the car with him… I should’ve listened. Haha.

Oh, while they were here I had my AP Psych exam. And the day after they left I had my US History exam. Tomorrow I have my AP English exam. And then I am all done with AP exams forever! Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay! I’m celebrating with a 2 hour flute lesson on Thursday! So excited! My poor flute has been deprived of playingness since I’ve been studying.

Oh! And for Julia’s birthday present I made her these delicious chocolate peanut butter cup cupcakes! They were yummy.

Oh, I do love cupcakes so.

Anywhoo, I’m going to go hide in my dungeon and study the rest of the day. Oh, and workout again (twice a day now. Intense schedule!)

Love,

Chelsey
