First Snowfall

There's some kind of secret beauty
that comes from being outside
in the still darkness
with the wind
blowing around the snow

you sneaky mom!!

Well, my mom was kind enough to bring me halloween candy this year.
I don't get to go trick-or-treating.
And I wasn't able to take my regular 'sister tax'.
But nonetheless, I found this.... sadly hilarious.

feeling

conflicted.
impatient.

yup, that's about it.

Things as They Really Are

sorry I didn't get this up on sunday.
Something to think about though.
Something in my life that could probably use a little work,
and I'm sure I'm not the only one.

Halloween singing

I have a group of friends at school.
My FHE group, and they're pretty much THE best.

Tonight, we went caroling.
Yes, I know it's Halloween.
That's why we sang a version of Carol of the Bells, titled "It's not Christmas Time".
Lyrics and arrangement by my friend (and his friend).
Though some were annoyed, and we did get a door shut on us, most applauded.
While we were singing to one door, we would have others open and have us come over.
We probably have at least 10 recordings of us singing
(so let me know if we show up on youtube and become famous ;)
We had some people give us cookies and candy.
and we had several calls for an encore.
We're pretty musical :)
