Ryan Balas

Hi all,
If any of y'all think of it, a friend was in an accident, he was brought back to his home after a little over a week in the hospital (ICU), but was just yesterday rushed back to the hospital due to complications. He's not doing to well, but we are putting him in the ultimate Doctor's hands, but he could use some lifting up in prayer. Just thought I'd ask any who'll read this to sent a prayer to our Father in Ryan's behalf. May the LORD bless you all in these fine fall days!

Some Sort of Sickness

Why??

I was on the bus today, and a child was standing on the seat instead of sitting down, and the mom said, "sit down", and the daughter replied "Why?" And the mother pulled out the classic "Because I said so". I almost started to laugh, I don't know why, but it was just really funny to me! How many of you have had that said to them at some point in time? I know I have!!

I'm Thinking Starbucks

The Librarian Who Went To Sea

I was on the bus today, coming home from school when the librarian came on board. She had recently helped me with a project that I was working on, it's finished now!! thank goodness, so I wanted to thank her. Well, we started talking, and she told me that she had been a librarian on a cruise ship! I didn't even know that there were libraries on ships. But I guess it makes sence, people'll want to read. I just thought it was interesting. And then we got off on the same stop and she lives on the same street as me, who knew?!?

Knit Night

We, Riley, Gaelyn and me, went to Villiage Yarn and Tea to their once a month Knit Night this last Friday night. Tuns of fun.

I know it's sideways, but you get the picture.


Lady across the table who took our picture.

Gaelyn's finished product

This plate did have food on it...

Gaelyn grew a mustach while we were there.

"I love you THIS much!!"


Busy at work!

Who needs crazy partys when you have knitting on Friday nights??

I come home after taking a walk waiting for my porrage to cool off, and what do I find in my 'just right' bed? This, my very own Goldie Locks!! Well, that's not exactly what happened, but it's more interesting that the real story. (That's my bed by the way if you didn't get that)

Coolest People

As I walk into my house late Friday night I see this display of love on my kitchen table. The sticky note reads: "Dearest Anna, What could it be? -L&A P.S. Call me"

What is under the bowl you ask? And why are there colorful objects around it? Well, let me tell you, under the bowl was a cup of coffee, and the objects are there to attract the attention of my wandering eyes.

My lovely Chai Tea Latte!!

A happy me!!!

And now, for the coolest people in the world. Who are they? Why would they be so kind as to bring me this glorious gift? And how did they get into my house???


Laura Hutchinson!

Amy Hutchinson!!

The three of us on a camping trip this last summer!

More camping trip.

Oh and to answer the question of how they got in: well, they just walked in.

Never Give Up

My brother had this on his wall all growing up.

Dreams vs. Reality

Over the past couple of nights I've been having really weird dreams lately, mostly just involving people I know doing strange things, out of the ordinary for them. Well, last night I had another one, and I can't figure out if something was in the dream, or if it really happened! So I think I might ask someone, cause it's really bothering me!

We Flew!!
