Life right now...


Life is good.

Sun is shinning, no school, New Years Ever... TOMORROW!, being with friends, basketball games, goofy conversations, card games, listening to my new favorite song... (You Got Me by Colbie Caillat) babysitting...

Its all just good.

With the sun shinning right now, I can getting a little taste of spring. Yea, it might 20 degrees out right now, but when the wind stops and its just the sun, you can kinda feel the warmth of the sun. And it feels good.

Oh, and to make life better, 2 people posted pictures on my wall. ( My facebook wall, incase you dont have a facebook and wondering why someone would just come and put a picture on my wall  :)  )  Which I love, a lot.

Maddie and I intertubing right before school started. SO much fun!!!!



Ok, blogger is being dumb and wont flip this picture...
 Emily and I with our old neighbor's cat Oreo.

So, I hope that you can enjoy the sun, have a great rest of winter break, and just realize how good life really is....  :)

Cubbies

Cubbies are fun.  Getting to help with a bunch of 5 year olds, play with play-doh, talk with my friends Jake and Jason, eat gold fish, get to see Mrs. Shier. Yea, its great. I love it. Last night Jake brough his camera, and here are just a few of the pictures that make me smile.

They were all so proud of this train they had made.  They took turns being the conductor

I have intorduced them to victory poses. 

The helpers got a free coffee for a Christmas present

They are cute

Super cute

And goofy

STORY TIME! Talking about all the miracles that Jesus performed.  They LOVE it!

Yes, my foot is small. Yes, his foot is big. BUT, this is ridiculous.  And, for the record. My shoe fits INSIDE of his shoe.

We are always sad when Cubbies are over...

Dear Cougars

Dear Cougars,
You let me down.  As I was babysitting I was watching the Apple cup hoping that maybe, just maybe you could pull through for me and win. Yes, this game was all for me. You see, last Tuesday Wescott, my youth pastor, and Jason, my funny friend, made a bet with me.  ( They are Husky fans).  They told me that if you guys won, they would wear a cougar shirt.  Can you imagine anything better then a husky fan wearing a cougar sweatshirt? I cant. But if they won, I would have to wear a Husky shirt.  Not just on Sunday, but on Tuesday and Wednessday for youth group.  Then... you lost.  And now I am stuck with this ridiculous shirt.  It is purple and has a gross gold "W" on it. Eww...

I am so sad that you let me down.  But dont worry, I will remain a faithful fan and keep cheering.

Love,
Amanda
