[insert title here]

My weekend. Sort of.

Let's start with yesterday!
I made a deal with my Sunday School class that if they are good for 3 weeks, we'll have treats. Yesterday was week #2 and so far so good... Anywho I have a very special family.

Exhibit A:
 
 If you haven't seen any Juilian Smith videos, go to YouTube and search Julian Smith. For serious. My brother likes to put his glasses in the same way Jeffrey does. You'll see. 

Moving on. I have noticed that people don't really like Mondays. I am not always a Monday lover myself, but I am an optimist! That is why I have decided to take note of the awesome things that happen on Mondays.

Here is for today:
1. I actually cleaned my bathroom. I think my mom heard angels singing. 
2. I went to various stores with my mom. Right when we were checking out at the last store a lady told us that there were 65 MPH winds... oh boy. So we left and it started raining and by the time we got home it was pouring rain. 
3. I am going to make cookies eventually at some point today. Mmmmmm.
4. We are having Rigatoni for dinner. My fav. :D
5. I am now a proud owner of the Jillian Michaels Yoga Meltdown DVD. Don't be hatin. 

Here are some lovely pictures from today's thunderstorms!

Laundry.

So my mom did laundry yesterday. Not only do I enjoy feeling of wearing clean clothes and sleeping in clean sheets, but I adore the smell. Last night I was all snuggled in my bed and they smelled soooo clean! Ahhhh :)  I am grateful that my mom not only does my laundry even though I am home from school, but she made my bed for me last night when I was getting ready for bed. Best. Mom. Ever. There are countless things that I could write about on here, but these are just 2 highlights I wanted to point out. :)

Time to watch a movie and have my mommy play with my hair now. Can I get an amen?

Caramel Brownies.


^ Yummies ^ 



Today.

Well I was making carmel brownies when I finally decided to actually make a blog. 9 more excruciating minutes until my yummies are out of the oven. Yessss. I'll be sure to take a picture of them. Maybe, if I remember. I suppose I should write something more exciting, but nothing is coming to mind. Other than my awesomely mismatched socks, but even that fact isn't super exciting.

I have thought of one slightly exciting thing: I teach the 12-13 year old kids Sunday School at my church. Let me tell you, THAT is one exciting class. There are about 10 kids that come every Sunday, and half of my class consists of boys. I was surprised to learn though that the boys are more talkative and loud than the girls are. Here is a super plus to teaching the class: my twin brothers are in it. Tomorrow is my 4th week teaching them and they seem to be getting better. Knock on wood. Like 20 times.

Last week in my Sunday School class, one of the twins was sitting quietly and paying attention, but I looked up at him and he had somehow stuck 2 pieces of paper right above his mouth, so he looked like he had a mustache. Classic. I told him to take them off and a few minutes later, the papers were above his eyebrows. I really wanted to bust up laughing, but I figured that would probably promote bad behavior which wouldn't be a good idea...

Hopefully something funny will happen in tomorrow's class that will be post-worthy. Mwahahahaha :)
