Psalm 139:17-18

Got Any Common Sense?

"Wake up America!", "Times are changing", "The Constitution is in danger!", "Get up off the couch and call your Senator, call the White House!", "Demand answers!" Unless you are living in a hole (or maybe your just purposely ignorant.....oops, did I just say that?!), you probably know that these are some of the rally cries of one man who is quite the bold American, Glenn Beck. I guess you could say that I'm pretty inspired! I started to wonder though,"What CAN I do?" I'm not even old enough to vote! I know I want to do something!

The fact is, there is something I can do! And I don't think Glenn Beck has proposed this plan.

Here it is:

football! finally!

Game day. The fans gather around decked out in crimson and white. You hear the band start to play the best fight song there is. You smell the aroma of tailgaters cooking up a football feast. Leaves are starting to fade into those rich autumn colors. Team pride is stirring within you.....You know it's football season once more.
I've got to say, this is the best time of year. The weather, the colors, the football! Only four days until kickoff! I get so pumped when I see my team- crimson and white- march out on to that field. My expectations are very high.

Our first game is going to be held in Atlanta at the Georgia Dome against Virginia Tech. It's going to
be a good match-up...they are #7 and we are #5.

Usually, gametime is when my Dad and I are glued to the tv (unless we are @ Bryant-Denny Stadium). We are the biggest fans in house. And do we get loud! Whoo hoo! I love watching football (and talking about football) with my dad. For this first game, unfortuantely I won't even be home. I will be out of town so will have to watch it in a hotel. We are taking Brooke to college this weekend. So it's going to be a sad/happy weekend. Roll Tide!

The Beginning of The End

Starting today, I am finally a Senior in high-school. I can't believe it! Ha! Wow... I made it! Why is the first day of school actually....enjoyable?!
I like just about all of my subjects this year. I don't have to take a math or a science course which is kind of nice. Most of my subjects are one semester long, so I'm planning on doing all of my courses this semester in order to just get it all over with. I could be done by Christmas! Hopefully!

My cousin, Riley, is a married man as of last Saturday. He married his beautiful bride, Lori, in a pretty little church in Winchester TN. Amber, Autumn, and Jeremy were all in the wedding. They looked precious!

On Sunday, my dad bought Amber, Autumn, and Jeremy their own little bunnies. They're so fluffy and soft...I LOVE them! I have always loved rabbits :). Dad also picked up two little guineas (a type of bird). But they didn't make it. I found them this morning already gone. I guess they weren't strong enough for the trip home from my grandparents. Poor little things :(

Brooke is leaving for Pensacola on September 5th. I'm dreading her departure very much! I'm trying to not think about it right now. Life will not be the same without her around!
