Happy Saint Patrick's Day!!!!

'Over six hundred years ago, God raised up a man named Patrick, to take the gospel of Christ to the people of Ireland. Seldom in church history has any missionary been blessed with a more fruitful ministry. The preaching of Patrick was used by God to transform many of the Irish people from idol worshiping pagans into servants of the one true God of Scripture. May his story encourage twenty-first century Christians to be faithful to the Great Commission of Christ: "Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit..."

~Taken from the book- Saint Patrick by Michael McHughe

The story of Saint Patrick is so inspiring...to see how God used a great trial so that His Kingdom might spread to a wicked nation. Patrick was kidnapped from his home Roman Brittan, and sold into slavery at the age of 16. He lived as a lonely shepherd for 6 years, and there, in the lonely hills of Ireland, Patrick turned back to God, and became a truly strong and devout Christian. These years were preparing him for his great missionary's work! Admonished by an angel he, after six years fled from his cruel master and bent his steps towards the west. When he finally arrives home, he realizes that God is calling him back to the land of his captivity. In 433, Patrick began his great work in Ireland. The rest of his life was spent in bringing thousands of Irish people to Christ!!!

I wonder who will actually see that I am posting...hmm....anyways this is really weird to post after so long a time. Oh well, I am doing it!!! Maybe I will get back into the blogging thing...ok well this is really boring, so I will say bye!!! :)

Happy Birthday Destiny!!!

Wow, 15 years have gone by, and so fast, since the day Destiny Jane was born. I was thinking back, and it seems like throughout my whole life we have been best friends. I don't know what I would do without Destiny? She is such a kind, fun, encouraging, loving, and awesome lady.

Yesterday, at school, Destiny and I were talking through facial expressions, and then Dad said: "Girls, stop talking with your eyebrows, and get your questions done!" Yup, we pretty much have a whole language we can speak by looking at each other with expressions. We like to play it on Kaila, we give a face to each other, then we know what to say to her. Well that is just one way I realized how close of friends we have become.

When our Uncle John came up here, he asked me if I wanted to go out to eat by myself or with Destiny. Well of course I wanted to go with Destiny. Then the next day she told me he had asked her the same thing, and she said she wanted to go together too! We love doing pretty much everything together. Ever since we were little we would always call each other to see if we could match. Grandma took us to buy lots of matching clothes, so we would always match. We still do once in a while, just for old times, we have so much fun. We would also carry our dolls with us everywhere, and for our birthdays we would buy best friend lockets. I could go on and on with memories of our friendship, but I'll quit here.

I was looking for pics, and there are so many crazy pictures of us. But I will only post a few.

I am so blessed to have you Destiny for a friend, thanks for being there for me, and always being such a great friend. Happy 15th Birthday!!!

Finaly, another Post!!

Hello all you Blogger's,
Wow, its been ages since I last posted. So much has happened since then, I'm not really sure what to post about? So I guess I'll just tell of whats been happening in the past few day's: A couple days ago, Dad took the boys out camping, so it was just us girls. They got home today, while I was painting. Today I painted a landscape oil painting. It isn't very good, but it was fun. I haven't done one for so long, and now that we have Omnibus off, I can do more things. Now we all have to go take singing lesson's pretty soon, so I had better rap it up. I have lots of new pics I've been taking, so Ill just post a few randomly. Okay, see ya later!!!
