A Special thanks to all the men and women out there who are serving our country!

Following the crowd is not a winning

approach to life. In the end, its a loser's game,

because we never become who we were created to be.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

One thing I'm thankful for and always will be

is being born and raised in the best country

of the world!

The United States of America

we take sooo many things for granted..

we have soo many opportunities

we are blessed beyond all measures

and we have the one and only God to

thank for it all!

EAGLES vs. COWGIRLS

the EAGLES laid an epic smack -down to the cowGIRLS last night, on Sunday night football!
i must admit i totally love Sunday night football. it doesn't matter who is playing is always good! but even better when the cowgirls get beat!

Asante Samuel

DeSean Jackson

Some photo's taken today.. enjoy :)

i took quite a few more, but it takes a super long time to upload them because i have to upload them to photobucket from my phone then to blogger. oh did i mention they were all taken on my phone?? :) thats a crazy good phone!

the small things

Sometimes it really is the Small things in life that count..

at the beginning of this school year i had been praying about me being able to play volleyball since we don't have enough girls at church for a team.

it didn't happen..

Today mr. dow got a call about them having a volleyball tourney at our gym and he asked if i would be able to play if one of the teams needs a player..

who ever he was talking to (we didn't ask who it was, surprising right? lol) said sure!

(YAY)

i'm super siked!

hopefully one of the teams will need a player, and that team will win 1st place.. wouldn't that just be the coolest thing for my senior year? i think yes! hehe

now i just need to get in shape

God really is awesome!

The Flyers are beast!

the flyers, so far this season, have been BEAST! their new goalie is amazing!!

the Eagles were'nt too bad last week either, but better than their past 3 games!

other than that (lol) i can't think of much...

except...WILLIAM IS GOING TO BE A BIG BROTHER!!! :) hehe sorry Sands, i couldn't resist! you can go to Sandy's blog here! i'm super siked!

so, thats the cool news of the week! :D

how's yalls week going?

When you die there's going to be a tomb

stone it's going to have your name, it's

going to have the day you were born

and the day you died. In between there's

going to be a dash and that dash is

going to represent everything

 you did in your life; the good

and the bad.

WHAT DO YOU WANT YOUR DASH TO REPRESENT?

strawberry lemonade

did you know that old pudding smells like puke? haha trust me... its not something you want to smell.

anywho's nothing cool or interesting has been happening. school, school, and more school.

The PHILLIES clinched the NL East Saturday night! it was E_P_I_C! they could have the night before, and attempted to (Chooch had an amazing double that was dropped by the right fielder, and to say the least every Philly phan i know was up and yelling a cheering for him) i can't wait for the Post Season and then the World Series! PHILLIES ALL THE WAY! " 2011 Philadelphia Phillies Baby"

Eagle were so-so yesterday. they definitely would have won if Vick didn't get hurt! he so needs to get better. but i know concussions are no fun. hopefully it won't be a bad one.

Steelers did sooo much better yesterday than they did the week before.


Please pray for my friend, Ashley's dad. He went into the hospital with massive kidney failure last week!
thanks so much!

Here I Am, Lord

I, the Lord of sea and sky,

I have heard My people cry.

All who dwell in dark and sin

my hand will save.

I, Who made the stars of night, I

 will make their darkness bright.

Who will bear My light to them?

Whom shall I send?

 

I, the Lord of snow and rain,

I have borne My people's pain.

I have wept for love of them.

They turn away.

I will break their hears of stone,

Give them hearts for love alone.

I will speak My Word to Them.

Whom shall I send?

I, the Lord of wind and flame,

I will tend the poor and lame.

I will set a feast for them,

My hand will save,

Finest bread I will provide

Till their hearts be satisfies.

I will give My life to them.

Whom Shall I send?

Here I am Lord, Is it I Lord?

I have heard You calling in the night.

I will go, Lord,

If You lead me,

I will hold Your people in my heart.
