have you wondered...
...what my siblings do while we're in the car?


Well now you know. I hope you're not scared off... :)

I realize I haven't posted anything on here in *gasp* a day! That is so unlike me...I need a little break. It was crazy busy yesterday...I'll post more on that later :)

four fun facts
4 - Four Fridays of CONNECTIONS (forging friendships)

I'm participating in the Planting Chums blog hop again over at Aspire...the theme for this week is Four Fun Facts. 

1} I have five siblings. Three you already 'know' (Jeremiah, MeMe, and Lilly) and I have two older sisters that live in Germany from my dad's first marriage.

2} I have weird toes. I'll spare you a picture, but seriously. Freaky.

3} Chocolate is my weakness.

4} I'm homeschooled (and partially online schooled).

Those are my four facts! Head on over to Aspire and link up with your facts :)

roses, clover & lilly

I was outside snapping pictures of all the lovely plants, like the stems of azaleas (whose flowers have since fallen off),


bushes,


and roses. Not paying very much attention to my surroundings, I was startled when this tiny person jumped in front of me (and my camera).


She had a handful of clover (the biggest ones I have ever seen), and was convinced that she should eat it.


I laughed and told her that she was a ham. "What does that mean?" "It means that you're silly." "Oh." 


Then I took some more pictures of the roses.

The end.

happiness is...
I feel like I should say something witty here "introducing" Happiness Is, but I'm at a loss for words. So I'll just start without an intro. ;)

Happiness is...


...seeing this (MeMe and her friend Anna).



...fresh strawberries with a bit of sugar. 

What are two things that make you happy?
