Lots of Random Thoughts…

{1} First off, the winner of the contest is:  Sarah-Anne!!  Congrats! You answered the most questions correctly.  Please let me know if you want to guest post on my blog or if you want me to send you a surprise package in the mail.  The rest of you did a great job trying to answer the questions.  I hope you had fun trying to see how well you knew me.  It was really hard trying to choose the winner because ya’ll did so good at your answers.

{2} American Idol—First and foremost, Scotty McCreery won!!!!!!  I know, I am celebrating late, but...yay!!!!  I always thought he would win the whole thing.  Oh, and goodness gracious…when he found out that he won, did you HEAR the touching thing that he said?!

"I want to thank the LORD first.  I couldn't have gone anywhere without Him.."

Ahhhh!!! I’m just so excited for him!  He has definitely worked for it.  Katie and I were literally screaming when we watched the results last week.  Haha!  It’s so exciting to have an American Idol from North Carolina.  *sigh*

Oh, and did I tell ya’ll that I get to go to the American Idol Summer Tour in July??!!!  Yes!  We’re going to see Scotty and the rest of the contestants sing in person!!  So very excited about that.  Sarah-Anne and her dad are also coming with us.  It will be a night to remember and I can hardly wait. {3} School is officially out for the summer!!!!! Goodbye, 11th grade… It’s time for some fun and relaxation. It’s really strange to think about when I start back to school, though. I’ll be starting my last year in high school! It’s bittersweet.

{4} Peter Rabbit came to visit us the other night and I took a few pictures of him while I was outside. I’m sure I looked pretty funny while I was skipping around the yard trying to get closer to the cute little rabbit, but I was having lots of fun trying to get a good picture of him… *Ahem* Maybe, a little too much fun? =)                            

{5} I really…really…REALLY want to go to the beach.  I might have an opportunity to go with my cousin in July, but I’m not quite sure about how it’s all going to work.  I’m crossing my fingers, though!  =)

{6} Have you read this post from sweet Sarah?  You should click right over HERE and read her post on Femininity.  It’s a really great post and I think you would enjoy it.

{7} Did you know that Jesus loves you?? <3 =)

{8} I’m trying to make a list of things that I want to accomplish throughout the next couple of weeks while I’m out of school.  I’m definitely going to be reading a lot and working on some sewing projects, but I haven’t decided what else I want to get done.

{9} Mom is having some difficulties with her health right now and she would appreciate any prayers right now.  She just doesn’t have much strength and she is extremely tired.  She wants to be able to do more, but she gets worn down very easily.  Please be praying that we can figure out what is wrong and that the doctor can help her feel better.  Also, please pray for her to continue to have the “fight” in her because this trial is really making her feel discouraged.

{10} I’m going to have a HUGE giveaway soon, but before I can… I need to get a few more followers.

The more people that follow, the faster I can start the giveaway.  Let’s make that number go to 300, okay?  Please spread the word about it and click that little button over there that says… “Follow”, okay?  Thanks, ya’ll!
