My Mondays are usually...

Mondays are usually quite boring for me, I mean the weekend is over and the weekend rush  is gone, this weekend was really great. On Friday night I went up to this youth event that was called ``Rock the Park`` that was being held in a city about 45 minutes away from my town with my youth group and I had so much fun there. 2 girls from my youth group slept over at my house because we got home pretty late and since they live in the country it would be hard for their parents to come pick them up. The next morning I was supposed to be helping my dad with our renovation, but my 2 friend`s mom invited my sister and I to come swim in their new pool which they just got working- it was no skimpy pipsqueak of a pool posing as a pool-it was huge!!
                                                                                   
 So my sister and I slept over at their house and on Sunday morning we went to church, I can`t really remember what I did that night. Then the next day was Monday and I was kinda down about the weekend, I was just doing school and the normal stuff any homeschool kid does on a weekday. Then around 6pm these 2 Filipino boys we know (ages 3 and 7) called us and asked if they could come over and play, Rachel, Julia and I went over to pick them up around 7ish a little after supper. I played wii with them while Julia and Rachel went on a quick bike ride. The wii was having some issues and was not working right but after a while I got it to work on wii sports and that was fun. :)
                                                   
 Rachel and Julia joined us in the basement after their bike ride and I went upstairs and made popcorn for the boys, they enjoyed it a
 lot! Rachel, Julia, and I drove them home shortly after I made the popcorn for them. While we were driving back home we drove by a Boston Pizza and Rachel joked about going there to get a Chocolate Explosion. we got home and we were going to go downstairs to watch a movie or a episode of something but my mom and dad watching their own show so we asked if we could go get a Chocolate Explosion and my mom said yes. We got to BP`s (Boston pizza) ordered our Chocolate Explosion to share and gobbled it down. it was SO good! So life is good and I can`t complain, I hope everyone had a good weekend. :)

-Always love

I am starting back to (home) school today and I am feeling rather good about it, I am sad that summer is gone but I am really hopeful about this fall and I have a good feeling about everything that has to come. :)

I don't really have much to blog about right now, it has been such a busy summer for me and a fantastic one at that! I have so many awesome memories from this summer so I thought I would tell you guys a few off the top of my head:

1. The fair was so awesome this year!! I went on a few rides that I really didn't think I would go on and those 2 rides were the SKYMASTER (left picture) and the ZIPPER (right picture).
                                    
              
                                                        (The zipper is my favorite!)


2. A few nights ago I invited my friends Amy and Katelyn to my house one night, they only live a little more than a few blocks away so they walked to my house and I kinda met them half way, we walked back to my house and then went for a walk and that was pretty great, :) the sky looked like it was gonna rain so we ran back to my house and made it back just in time. But in the end we decided to go out in the rain and dance and we got wet anyways. We got back in the house and watched a movie and ate icecream and strawberries. :)

3. And last but not least going on a shopping spree with my auntie and cousin one weekend!

I'm sorry but that's all I can think of right now.
