Three Cake Birthday/ Color #2




















I had an unusual birthday this week...
Three Cakes! First of all, my considerate father, who is not exactly a whiz in the kitchen, (no offense dad), toiled away to make me a lemon cake. Thanks Dad!

Secondly, a friend of mine from church heard that it was my birthday, and made be a chocolate cake with mnm's. I was really surprised. She is so sweet. Thanks Shelly!

And last, but not least, another friend of mine, this time from my homeschool co-op made me a cake. It was more like a bar, with tons of chocolate chips! Actually I think her mom made it. So, thanks also to Julie and her family!


And now... Today's Color... Orange!

an interesting angle...














the intricate veins of a leaf...

Stay tuned for color #3!

Systematically methodical... semi-organized... utterly confused?

When you enter a corn maze, you start out with the map. You mark off the paths you have already covered, and circle the areas where you need to go. Fifteen minutes later... you are bit confused, yet still on track. After an hour... you are utterly lost. Aimlessly you wander through the monotonous rows of corn stalks desperately searching for an exit. Suddenly, when all hope seems lost, you turn the corner and see... the end! You are finally out!
























(this may not look very tall, but it was more than twice my height!)


Maybe I exagerated just a litttttle teensy bit. OK, a lot. I really did have a good time. I even took a gorgeous leaf home to press.

A longgggggg time ago in a land far away ...

Hello out there to all of those who read my blog! As you can see from my last post, which was in August, I have not posted for a while. (A long while.) Anyways, in August my family and I went to the east coast to...

The Beach!


















the crashing waves... (this was the first time I had ever been to the beach in the summer, so I actually got to 'swim' in the ocean. It was the first time I ever tried boogie boarding too!















footprints in the sand...















don't forget the birds...















intricate seashore buildings...
















and at the end of the day, a scenic walk at sunset.
























Of course there were countless other things to see and do there, but if I mentioned all of them I could be writing all day!
