Wow...

How time does fly! I haven't updated my blog in a while, although for the record I at least started on a post, it just didn't wanna turn out the way I wanted it to. Oh well.

How was y'all's Christmas? I had a pretty good one in spite of being sick! The gifts were all good, but I'm not gonna brag all about what I got. Besides that's not what Christmas is about.

I just wanted to log in, tell y'all that I'm alive, and doing well. I hope y'all had a lovely Christmas and that all is well!

And please pray for my Grandma! Her bones are frail and she a few days ago she fell and broke her hip, she had surgery yesterday, and today is her birthday, so all has been rough for her.

God bless!

It's Christmas Time!

December is my favorite month of the year. I even like the weather. Yeah, I know, it's weird, but I really like cold weather better than hot weather.
Anyway, Christmas is my favorite part of December, although my birthday is awesome too... lol.
We've already pretty much finished decorating, we're only adding things here and there now. Even some of the gifts are wrapped and under the nativity. Although, I haven't gotten gifts for my parents yet. They are so hard to shop for!
Did you know that this shall be one of my last two Christmases as a kid? Kinda weird, thinking of that fact that before I know it I'll be an adult... I should be graduated by then and hopefully I'll have a job.
I got sidetracked, sorry. Let's focus on this Christmas, shall we? Hehe. We may be going to see a movie on Christmas Eve. Kinda different... Usually we just have a nice day together as a family and eat a yummy dinner and then go out and look at the lights, see who can find the most nativities, and we "shoot" the reindeer. ;-) Could be fun though! And we'll still do the other stuff.

What is your favorite Christmas song? Mine is "Mary Did You Know" the version by Kutless

And I was going to post something to this affect, but my older brother beat me to it.

I love, love, love this time of year!

God bless!
And Merry Christmas!

Well, I'm 16

My birthday was this past Thursday. It was actually a pretty good day, though I hadn't really expected much, considering the fact that I got my big present over a month ago, and it was epic! I got a bunch of happy birthday messages, and phone calls and whatever. I think everyone and their great Aunt Sally must've wished me a happy birthday on Facebook! Thanks everyone! Was really nice and appreciated! :-D
My birthday desert was not exactly the classic cake, but I've never been one much for tradition in that sort of thing. lol. Had the awesomest brownies on the planet topped with cheesecake. Mmmm... It was heavenly! And I had Rotel cheese nachos for dinner. Also really good, but I was getting over a gum infection, so it was a bit hard to eat.
When I got my gifts, Wildchild was very impatient about me opening them. lol. "Open them! Open them!" he demanded. He's so cute.
I got an amp for my guitar. It was no surprise because I knew I was getting it, I'm the one who found it in the first place... It was awesome getting it though! I absolutely LOVE it! :D It make Spirit Storm (my guitar) sound sooo cool! I also got a journal and a guitar shaped pen. Gonna use the journal to put my songs in. I need someplace good to keep them. The notebook they've been in is getting full, and it's ugly. lol. And I also got a little sterling silver necklace with the "Rock Star" engraved on it. It's very simple, but kinda cool. I like it. :)
I spent my birthday feeling happy and enjoying myself. Thank you to everyone who helped to make it a good birthday! I feel so blessed by you all! :D

Now I just wonder what the year I'm sixteen will be like? I guess I'm gonna find out!

God bless!
