...no matter what the temperature.

I'm sitting at my grandma's house. Typing on her laptop. For anyone who didn't know, my grandma is fantastic. Love you Grandma!! :) And guesssss what? My wonderful grandma, who is aware of the title of my blog, made me SNICKERDOODLES! I've had waaaaay too many of them so far. hehehe... thank you Grandma! Anyway, it's really cloudy. Will this cloudy, crummy weather ever end? I want real summer weather. PLEAAASE!!

I'm reading this great book. It's called "I'm So Sure" by Jenny B. Jones. The book is part of the "Charmed Life" series. It's a Christian fiction novel, and the author is very talented because when I start reading, it always keeps me wanting more!! And more..... and more! :) The book is a mystery... I love mysteries. But there is also plenty of clean humor intertwined... I'm a big fan of that too. Anyway, it's a wonderful book!! (Amanda, if you're reading this post... definitely consider checking out this book, and the other books from Jenny B. Jones. I think you would love them. There's another series by her, "A Katie Parker Production," that you should also check out. Very fun reading material!)

Anyway, I should wrap up this post. Someone else would like to use this computer. We should be going to my grandma's cabin soon.... fun, fun! Minus the fact that it's cloudy, cloudy, cloudy (... and it looks cold...) Who knows, though.... I STILL might jump in the lake after a nice, hot sauna. I'm STILL going to enjoy this day, no matter what the temperature. :)

JUMP!




Frontflips are her specialty! :) My sister Lauren taught her, and those have been her favorite ever since!

Whoo!!


We recently got a new trampoline, and we've been having a lot of fun with it. My siblings have learned a lot of new tricks. Here are some fun pictures of my sister Olivia doing some pretty sweet stunts! :)

This is pretty neat!

So I was looking on some other blogs, and I saw that they had a really neat signature under their blog posts. And I decided to try and find out how to do that! So I found this free website. And it's easy!

Well that was fun!

Well....the Picture Challenge was a success!! :) I had a good time taking pictures every day, it was really fun! Thanks, Katelyn and Eliza, for the idea!! And here is one last picture (even though the challenge is over!), just for good measure.

There are some new flowers blooming in our garden! Pretty in color, AND black and white!

I think I know your reaction when you look at these grapefruits: EWWWW!!! Yes, I'm sure that's what a lot of people would assume from looking at the outside of these grapefruits. My mom had received these from a family member who had recently brought them from Florida. They sure looked disgusting on the outside, but we decided to open them up and see what they looked like. To our suprise, the grapefruits were a gorgeous pinky-red, and despite their nasty outer appearance, they tasted absolutely delicious! You know how we aren't supposed to judge a person by their appearance or a book by it's cover? I guess the same idea holds true for fruit--grapefruit in particular!! :)

Ahh, lovely math. Math and I definitely have a love-hate relationship (well, mostly hate... haha) but I have decided to put this picture up for Day 2 of the Picture Challenge because this is what is consuming a LOT of my time this week: studying math!! Since it's the last week of school (YESSS!) I get to have 3 math tests in a row (one each day, starting tomorrow).... and I am not excited. But hey, if studying math is all that I do anyway, I might as well just take a picture of it! :) And that reminds me, I should probably go start studying right about now....
