Busy weekend ahead

My birthday is officially not until Monday, but I’ll be starting early… tomorrow to be exact.

My friend, Susan, her mom, Trudy and I will be going on a 2 hour trip to the Town of Bramwell (WV) for a Ghost walk. This is the 2nd year they’ve had one, and I get the chance to go. I think it will be a lot of fun. Click on the link below for the official press release from the Children’s Home Society’s website on their upcoming events page. There are pictures as well, which I think is very cool. I can’t wait.

On Sunday, I’ll be going to dinner with my family to Olive Garden… can’t wait. It’s one of my favorite restaurants… also my suggestion. 🙂

Then, I’m taking off on Monday – my official b-day – and going first thing in the morning to the DMV to get my driver’s license renewed. Yay!! Then, after I come home I’ll need to call the maintenance men for my apartment building to come and look at my heater… I’ve been freezing at night and I can’t get my heat to come on. I think the pilot light might be out, but I can’t get the door off the unit to check. Plus, I’d rather have them do it for me, just to be on the safe side. 🙂

I’ll be updating later with pictures and such.

My Brother’s Birthday

My brother, Gabriel, just turned 22 on Friday and we went out to the Farm Table restaurant for dinner. It was nice. I got stuffed as always. This picture was taken last year of the restaurant.. no recent photos of it. But you get the idea.

This is a particial picture of a wall mural from inside the restaurant.

Here’s a picture of my brother and me

This is a picture I took in the back part of the restaurant. It’s set up kind of 60s style. This is a cool picture of an Elvis picture on the wall with his singles.

The following are some pictures taken at my grandmother’s house after we got done eating dinner. These are of the cake, and some of his birthday cards and gifts.

This is a picture of the new go phone he got

This is the sketchbook journal I gave him, since he likes to draw. I also gave him a 3 pack of pocket-sized blank books as well.

Here he’s holding the card I gave him

And, here is a picture of the cake.

TSMS: More Beautiful You

2 Your husbands will see the pure lives you live with your respect for God.3 It is not fancy hair, gold jewelry, or fine clothes that should make you beautiful.4 No, your beauty should come from within you—the beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit that will never be destroyed and is very precious to God. (1 Peter 3:2-4, New Century Version)

I really love this song by Jonny Diaz. It really stirs something in my soul everytime I hear it. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

More Beautiful You

Little girl fourteen flipping through a magazine
Says she wants to look that way
But her hair isn’t straight her body isn’t fake
And she’s always felt overweight

Well little girl fourteen I wish that you could see
That beauty is within your heart
And you were made with such care your skin your body and your hair
Are perfect just the way they are

There could never be a more beautiful you
Don’t buy the lies disguises and hoops they make you jump through
You were made to fill a purpose that only you could do
So there could never be a more beautiful you

Little girl twenty-one the things that you’ve already done
Anything to get ahead
And you say you’ve got a man but he’s got another plan
Only wants what you will do instead

Well little girl twenty-one you never thought that this would come
You starve yourself to play the part
But I can promise you there’s a man whose love is true
And he’ll treat you like the jewel you are

So turn around you’re not too far
To back away be who you are
To change your path go another way
It’s not too late you can be saved
If you feel depressed with past regrets
The shameful nights hope to forget
Can disappear they can all be washed away
By the one who’s strong can right your wrongs
Can rid your fears dry all your tears
And change the way you look at this big world
He will take your dark distorted view
And with His light He will show you truth
And again you’ll see through the eyes of a little girl
