Thought I'd share.


My brother was walking out of church today, and told me that he had seen this complete utterly funny story unfolding before his eyes...
There was a little boy and his grandmother standing together by the doorway, waiting for the rest of the family to return. The little boy had this sour spray candy, and kept trying to get his grandmother to try it.
"Come on Grandma! It's not that sour" this little boy was apparently convincing enough because the Grandma Finally gave in. He sprayed it in her mouth three or four times. The Grandma then proceeded to make one of the most funny 'lemon faces' you had ever seen.
"You told me it wasn't sour!" The Grandma complained and then slapped the boy who was laughing hysterically at the fact he had fooled his Grandma.

I'm Excited

I'm excited for a few reasons right now...

We're leaving soon to go see How To Train Your Dragon. Call me a little kid if you must, but I am thrilled. There's something about those types of movies that I love-like Aladdin. "I can show you the world..." Did I mention it has a MAGIC carpet? totally in awe of the fact that a carpet beat me in the race of trying to fly...

Tomorrow is the showing of "The Passion of the Christ" at church. I'm half-way scared to watch it (besides the fact that I'm going to ruin my reputation of not having cried while watching a movie before.) because I know it is rather in detail, but I want to have more understanding of what He had to go through. In my mind the results beat the reasons. (Plus, I could always leave the room if it gets to bad.)

On Friday, I'm going over to Katie's house for her birthday! I'm really excited about that!!! We will most likely will be watching for a rainbow all day on Saturday. I'll keep you posted on if we find one or not.

I'm eating Ice cream tonight. It's spring break- what can I say? I'm dieting but, I guess, I'll let this one slip. (And maybe Katie's birthday party too. There's going to be cake...)

A ladybug scared me about 30 minutes ago, and I about fell over when letting it outside-funny story. I'm still recovering, slowly.

I put up a new blog "look". It took me 3 hours to put that together because I couldn't find the right combination. Yes, you can call me picky. I think I like this one though.

I lost another pound! Yay for me :) And so now, I will go celebrate with a feast over ice cream tonight and cake and ice cream tomorrow at Katie's birthday. Ha.

Well that's about it, enjoy!

Jesus Wept


So you know that shortest verse in the Bible...John 11:35 "Jesus wept".
Think about that for a second-it doesn't say Jesus cried, or Jesus spilled some tears. No-
He wept.
The definition of wept- to express deep sorrow for usually by shedding tears; to pour forth (tears) from the eyes; to express passion (as grief) by shedding tears.
The only reference made in the Bible that Jesus wept...
The same Guy who died for us, showed us an example of love by simply weeping.
Take that one and chew on it for a bit.

Ali's Rambles...

I've got lots and lots to think about. Well, more like lots to consider. But I'm working on it, and I'm working hard....I'm just really really busy.
Play practice starts tomorrow!!! YES! I'm soooo excited!
Camp dress tomorrow! (we get to wear jeans to school!) AKA, we have to pay to be normal, funny day.
My brain is in overload-I have finals this week, guitar lessons, flute lessons, play practice, church, meetings with leaders, things to fix with friends, school work in general, freaking out about grades to do, and I have to build a castle. (just kidding about that last one :-)
Life is overwhelming for now, I have my moments. I'm doing alot better though. I processed through alot with one of our youth pastors from church, and am working on my relationship with God, and trying to rebuild it. Hard stuff, but who said it was going to be easy?
That my rambling for today...

I'm a Skipper :) well kinda...

Today was a good day.
I skipped school :)
Yes, I know you just read that twice...
But let me assure you, it was dad approved.

So anyways, I didn't really "skip" school, I got out of it because I had to talk to some leaders plus I'm doing really well in all my classes. My Dad signed me out and said I had, "Appointments". Half true, these were both meetings that were set up in advance. They both went really well, and gave me more things to think about. Hope everyone else had a good day too :) I'm meeting with a youth leader and another girl at Concannons tomorrow so then I will get some chocolate. :D yay. Oh and just an update, I've lost 15 lbs. How cool is that?!
Someone called me "analytical Ali." Funny day.

New Layout

I was inspired by The Inkwellers to change my layout, plus Katie gave me a link to where I can get blog templates. I don't normally go with a lighter/white background, but I liked this one. The Title picture, or whatever, is one I took a bit ago. I like it :) Hope you do too...
Love,
