Roadtrip to memas and more.




Hey it's been a bit not much going on except last weekend saturday me and my sister went to go to visit my mema. It was really fun going to go see her.

Here's me and adele on our way!







Saw lots of cool things on the rides to places I just about had my camera on the whole time.. thankfully I've got rechargeable batteries!

Ah the open road...
































Here's me and my mema!






After we ate lunch and talked a bit we took our mema shopping .We had to get her set up in her van that can have the wheelchair things in there.



She had a tv in there and there's a couch back there that unfolds unto a bed. I'm 'Wow mema you could camp out in here if you had too 'you have everything you need. haha.




and one of the places we went...





We went to a few stores and mema really had fun. Adele did well driving the huge van. Then we came home and after a little while headed back.


don't worry we didn't go there.



Nearby where my mema lives now there's her old house which they recently burned down we went there and i took pictures but they weren't that good. it was kinda sad though. I guess that's progress now days...


Then we came back to mema's house and after a little while headed back.


my cousins horses.





The open road again.. big hill huh?


it was really raining for a while!

I got a big chilly..so i put on my hoodie. :-)






but it cleared up and some cool stuff on the way back...

we should have done that...


sunset pic. :-D









pretty sunset with a twist..this is behind my glasses with the slight pink tint. looks neat huh?


water again...


What I wanted to do but didn't for a while....

Well the past few days have been good... the other night i was taking a lot of pictures because i got a new hat ( a cute plaid one) and i took them with my dads camera ..they weren't that great but it's what i had then i got ideas for other pictures and i started doing then and having fun until eventually mom saw me and had me open my present . it was a camera! it's really cool it's a kodak easy share. I've retaken most of them on my camera and they turned out much better. I went to a party for a friend who was going away and that was fun then sunday was church and went to the youth group for the 1st time and it was pretty cool i plan on going back. then today nothing much. I read some of my book the book of jane which is kinda a modern job except it's a women . it's good. I wrote kay a letter which i'm sure she'll like. Nothing much this week except thursday i practice my speech and have a 4-H meeting... I wonder when my friend gets back from the beach? hmm.. well i'll write later have a good day! -barb

Kay, last night ,and today.

Alright now thanks to a friend I've added some of you on my page so i'm happy. You may be wondering why there's a slideshow,( I wasn't sure about having pictures of myself but now I figure what the heck and I think i'll change my picture soon) well its' me and kay and I've been putting it everywhere so I figured might as well have it here too. I made it and showed it to kay along with this ...

For my Kay Kay

You, You're always there for me
When I need you most
Day and night you're by my side
Protecting me

This is for Kay,my helper,my friend ,and my twin About 17 years ago me and my sister were born. She was born 20 minutes before me . In preschool she would speak for me sometimes and would stick up for me later in years.I remember once at camp and there was some drama I'm not exactly sure about the story but kay defended me being a good older sister. Things haven't been perfect , we've fought through the years and now .But it's never been for too long .I've tried to let her have her space and we've gotten a bit closer now. She's grown a lot through the years. Last year she was really sweet and helped throw a surprise birthday party for me. I remember how she made me look nice and i'm " But we're just going shopping and going to a nick's house!" and it turned out to be a party. :-D That was cool.

I can be difficult like that sometimes but she puts up with me mostly. She listens to me,and even when I go to talk to her and try and help , she always will listen about my problems and things like that. Even when she's got lots of stuff she has to deal with. She's my crazy older sister that I love. Soon she'll be gone for the whole summer just about for a camp job as a lot of you know,it'll be the longest we've ever been apart. (well she'll come home around July 4th and says I have to come a weekend but still.) While I think I can have some things to myself, I'll really miss her. As I said to one of my friends you kind get use to them bugging you. (which she does a lot kinda but it's in love )

She always is saying "Barbara you're so beautiful!" or "You're a babe" And we have fun taking pictures (ok I do like it and I've been difficult with her getting me ready and I'm sorry it really is fun to see the awesome pictures you take ) And I just wanna say I love you so much and you're a great older sister. I'll miss you , have fun this summer I'm praying for you. your loving sister -B -machine


p.s. now the rest of you comment about how awesome she is! :-D

For those of you are going AWW don't worry I'm fine, I was a bit upset at first when she left but I'm fine now. I can still get to talk to her and she'll have a lot of fun and will get some great experience at camp Anyways today I've got a CPR class I'm hoping will go well. I just hope no one chokes until I'm done. Last night was nice I didn't get to give sarah her stuff but I did get to go shopping and I got some cute stuff . I also got to talk to my mom which was nice. I even did something kay will have to deal with.. I got a hat. I've said before I've wanted one but she said to wait so I've been getting to tell people I've 'defied her' haha. :-D I also got some paid shorts that are very cute. I can wear a polo shirt and really look upscale of course along with my sunglasses, I'll have to get a picture with it. Which reminds me I think my dad is getting me a camera for my birthday! :-D Also today we're watching adele and steven's dogs. ( my sister and her boyfriend ) there's a picture of one of them , Nickili in the slideshow he is the husky puppy. He's gotten bigger since. And adele has a cute boxer named Max.Thankfully they can stay in this little pin we have since Nickili has a sensitive stomach and we don't want any messes.Well I need to go. Hope you all have a good day!

my 1st post! wohoo!

Alright this is awesome! I started this randomly because I was on Xanga and decided I wanted to blog. I can on myspace and facebook but still... maybe with this I'll do more . I basically stopped with xanga forever ago except for private posts for diary (WHICH IF YOU TRY TO HACK INTO I WOULD BE SO MAD!) plus on here I know people . Yay Abby and Liz! and maybe I'll find something else. Well really I'm doing well . Today I cleaned some appliances tonight I need to make dinner earlier so I can go to 365 and give Sarah her stuff , and maybe stay who knows if not I'll hang out with my mom. I really want to go to walmart (oh gosh liz now I'm a redneck too :-P having dreams with going to walmart) but really I want to get random stuff. I want sheets that match my bed , cute yellow nail polish (why ? Because we don't have that color we have reds,pinks,purples,blues ,a bright green, even a black but no yellow! ) a backup gift in case someone has a birthday, some beads so I can make anklets for friends if I can remember how to do it, I might look for another one. Anyone else know how to make pretty anklets easily? I'm not that good with it . I use to just braid it but the other last longer. Anyways what's cool is I might get to work with Adele so I'm excited about that. Well I hope you guys have a good day! God bless! -Barbara
