the point of this day, i will never know.

 Chester kids :)

 bestest <3 i love her.

Wizard of Oz ♥

i will never forget this :)

This is my bestfriend :)

She's my sister. And she's two years older than me. And to say we're completely different would be an understatement. We're practically from a different planet!..but i love her more than anything in this entire world.
No, I'm not doing this post because it's her birthday, or because she did something amazing like become president. BUT, to me, every day she does something incredible. every day she makes me smile. every day we laugh like we're drunk. every day people should treat her like it's her birthday..BECAUSE SHE'S AMAZING.
and I love her :)

3 things

1) My friends being sweet to my little siblings makes me smile :)

2) Don't let Seth on a counter with ice cream and a bowl.

3) My babysitting skills are scary. I end up eating an entire bag of goldfish and drinking a whole thing of Arnold Palmer.

So basically this is how it went down..
i said to my siblings "hey guys, since it's not ice anymore, do you wanna jump in the pond?"
they all roll their eyes at me and then simultaneously say "YES!"

I'm not so sure i've ever been so cold before.
Some of us had skin that stayed blue and purple for hours!

I also had a fantastic birthday!
we didn't take very many pictures but i did get one with my sweet brother (:

"oh the weather outside is..WARM!"

Adam rocked the cow. and the sass.

jumping around like monkey's is obviously what to do when you FINALLY get a fire started.

Hello morning. Hello freezing.

the love day.

Valentines day. A Hallmark holiday of love..

All around the world people have been racking their brains for sweet things they can do for their loved ones, and tomorrow will be the day to carry out their plans. My question, however, is..what does love mean to them? Is it gifts, kisses, candy, flowers, and cards? or is it knowing that person cares for you always? Human love should be a picture of Christ's love for His children. And the truth is this; God does not pick a special day to show His child that He loves them. He takes each and every moment of each and every day to provide the most beautiful love imaginable. His gifts are not of chocolate and roses, but of His "daily duty" of protecting us from evil, and caring for us when we fall.

I believe love stories ARE beautiful and forever. If they are not, you didn't experience true love. God tells us love never fails.

I encourage everyone to take a look at what God's definition of love is, before they look at Hallmark's.

:.forever and always.:
