Made to Inspire #18

The butterfly was a sign, Philippa realized. It was a sign of hope.

This is perfect <3

The geese, they came back every year. But this time, winter came early.

Just a girl and her horse...

The princess was unhappy.

The road to adventure.

The girl may be plain on the outside, but I could see a fire burning within.

The forest was enchanted.

"Mommy, I want to be a fairy too!" And so off they went.

"I've found our Christmas tree!"

She's painting a pretty picture...

Updates!

Hi guys! :) Happy Sunday!

Well, I was planning on posting the next Made to Inspire and a Sunday Devotional this weekend, but I never got around to it. :P I'm sorry.

Instead... yesterday, I sang with my choir at my town's Christmas Tree Lighting event! It was really fun, but really cold! It's been in the 30's all week. :P I know some of your who live in midwest or on the east coast right now probably think that's nothing, but it's something here! The only thing that would make it better would be snow. Sigh.

Well, at least we have our Christmas tree and decorations up! The house looks so pretty and I love cuddling up by the fire with a warm blanket, good book, and hot chocolate while listening to Christmas music. :) Don't you?

Then, last night, my family and I watched The Hobbit again altogether! I can't wait to see the second one on Friday! It looks so good! :)

Other things that are happening in my life right now...

School finals are coming up! :P I've been filling out lots of study guides and preparing myself. :)
Also, check out a new story that I am working on right now at Seven Faraway Friends!

What's going on in your life right now?

Thanks for reading // Have a great day! :)

December

I'm starting fresh in December.

Hi there! Remember me? I've missed you guys! It feels good to be back. :)

How are you all? How was your Thanksgiving? I can't wait for Christmas! Though, it sure doesn't feel like winter. :P We don't really have seasons where I live...

Just though I would check in with you guys. Thanks for bearing with me.

I go back to December all the time. ~ Taylor Swift

Interview with Kelsi and My Life

So... hai. I'm back. Though I won't be for long. I'll just get right to the point: I need a blogging break. I've been having trouble trying to balance blogging and the rest of my life, so I'm going to take a little break for now. Maybe one or two weeks. I don't know. Thanks for understanding. :)

Ugh, I can't believe I didn't post about Halloween (I was a black cat) or the first day of November yet. Can you believe it is already November? November means Thanksgiving, yeah! :D Though it felt like Thanksgiving last night. Whenever my mom is gone on her yearly retreats, my dad always calls up my grandma to see if they are available to have us over for dinner. So last night, she made her signature mashed potatoes and gravy (they are the best!), home-made applesauce, corn, apple pie, and pork something rather. It seriously tasted like heaven. :D And  then, of course, after I had to burn it all off by playing Just Dance! (Best WII game ever!) :D

So, anyhoo... Kelsi, here is your interview!
