I have an interesting story to tell. About two and a half (or maybe only two and a third) weeks ago Mom was at church rehearsing the Christmas musical when she noticed that the diamond from her wedding ring was gone. She called home and asked us to look for it. Now, her diamond is only like, a 5th of a centimeter long. So the search was pretty much hopeless. However, I looked all over just on the slim chance of finding it, but none of us did. After a day the search was basically hopeless and we knew that we wouldn't ever find it.
Monday, we did laundry. Fun chore. Well, Mom had just finished putting in a load of clothes when she noticed something sparkely on the inside rim of the washer and found what looked like a small rhinestone. You'll never guess what it was. That's right, Mom's diamond. How in the world that tiny little stone didn't get washed down the drain is beyond me! It really is a miracle that she found it, there was no possible chance it would found under normal circumstances, but found it is.
Okay, that was my little story of the day. Happy 2008!
It will probably be 2009 before I get used to writing 2008 and then I will have to get used to writing 2009 and it will probably take just as long to get used to...

End of the Year
Well, I hope you all had a "joyful" Christmas, I know I did. I have finally got an mp3 player, a device formerly unknown to me. I am still having trouble figuring it out. I also got the Sillmarillon. I will now be able to read it without having to turn it in to the library every two weeks because someone else is waiting on it!
Right now we have family in town with us, and so far we have had fun with them. Yesterday me and my cousins made petit fours (sp?) and had great fun decorating them. They also tasted pretty good ;) Today we might be going the the Cowboy Museum. It's been a few months since we've been there, I'm looking forward to going again.
This will probably be my last post of 2007. Time has passed so fast. Last year around this time we were all franticly packing and looking for houses. In a few weeks it will be a year since we moved (and what a trip up here it was, smoking cars, ice storms, slick roads, air bags...) If you had told me before all of this happened, what was going to happen, I probably would have laughed at you. This next year will probably be just as exciting and surprising.
Jeremiah 29:11
"For I know the plans I have for you,"
declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you
and not to harm you, plans to give you
hope and a future."
