Thanksgiving and the past two days. :)

Well on Thursday we baked and cooked all day and it was fun.





Then we had Aunts, Uncles, Grandparents, and old cousins over for dinner. :) We attempted to all play celebrity which kinda failed since our grandparents didn't know who Robert Pattinson is and we didn't kno who Johnny Cash is. (well, we knew just not real well) So besides that fail it was all fun. :D pics...



Mom-mom trying to figure out someone's bad bad handwriting...




kt explaining Johnny Depp.

Then, after everyone left I didnt 500 jumping-jacks to burn off all the turkey then we all went on the couch to watch Cristmas with the Kranks (best movie, must watch) :D Then we all went to bed. On friday, we didn't go shopping cuz kt had to work and plus we woke up late. I was so dissapointed I could have cried. But at like 3 we went to our old neighbor's house and ate dinner and played cards and sang defing gravity. Tucker drove us there:



it twas much fun and I laughed :)



Singing was a fail. (cuz I sang) yah, try hitting that high f. it's.hard. I was going to put the video up of me and kt singing but after watching it once again I think I'll spare u. :) I went off tune more than thrice. Oh and did I mention that she has two adorable kitties? Thier names are Jingle and Jangle, but we call the chubster and pretty baby. :) pics below




So we slept over till the next day which was fun besides the fact I kept getting kicked in the face by my loverly sister kt. She get's pretty cranky at 1 in the morning. So on Saturday we woke up late, watched cartoons, and went shopping!!! We went to the mall and I got a little depressed. I felt like a million dollars walking in there with my 18 bucks and once we stopped in the first store I realized I'd be lucky to get a gift bag for that much. haha, no I'm eggagerating but most of the stores were insanly expensive. :P I ended up getting Ems and Kt their Christmas presents tho which was a win. After the mall we ate dinner then went to a few other stores then went home and played monopoly. bad idea. Let's just say I didn't do so snazzy and got in a real bad mood and scowled at everyone who glanced my way. We got pretty darn competetive. :P



i was mad. :(



kt. :)



my monopoly that lasted a grand total of about 1o mins. impressive, I kno.



and I'm always the horse guy. :)




after monopoly Mom picked us up and we went home. I was looking forward to relaxing when I got home but then realized I had to fix Emma's sweater that she is wearig tomorrow but convienently I had no black thread so I used white thread on a black sweater! smarts not. But it's chill cuz it's an inside seam so u can't even see it. :) Then I was looking forward to re-layering my hair until Kt came in asking me to fix her shirt she wanted to wear tomorrow (of course these things always happen at 11:00 Saturday night) so I did that because I love her then I had to wash all our outfits for tomorrow and I still am thinking I want to layer my hair. So right now I am blogging because I am waiting for the laundry to get done washing so I can throw it in the dryer. funfun. I think I'll draw this post to a close tho as it is getting rather long. :) Hope everyone enjoyed their Thanksgiving! :D

new room. :)








Well this weekend us girls had a whim. We decided, or rather I decided I want my own room. After much ahhemm arguing and bickering me and Ems finally decided kt could have our room (the biggest one) cuz she has the most stuff. :p I wasn't too happy but oh well. life goes on. So I ended up w/ kt's sunshine yellow room and ems got the old guest room. Here are some very grainy and bad pics of my new room. :) I kno it looks rather vintage right now, what with my sewing corner and all but eventually someday perhaps I'll get around to painting it, and then I'll take more pics! :D funfun.


oh and btw the little brown dog is Brownie. My life-long companion. :)

my lovely life. :)

Isn't God good to put us where we are? I mean, sometimes even tho it's sort of hard to figure out His plan in the beginning, you can always look back and marvel at how he worked. :) I was reminded of this today, just thinking of where i was a year ago, and how I never even imagined that I could be where I am now! So today is Sunday, and what a lovely day it was. woke up at 6:30 to go early w/ Dad to set up @ church, (not so lovely) then had a blast dancing down the empty hallways w/ my fav little sis. After that, we set up and all that jazz then I had another blast singing the sweater song w/ the girls to no on in particular. ;P Then there was the message, which was wonderfully encouraging, and then we had a youth mt. where we ate pizza and drank soda. :D Oh and Mr. Lynch went through the youth schedule for the yr. :) I got pretty siked! We r having our own Christmas party, and in June we r all going camping! U should be jealous. So after that we left and went home and chilled, cleaned, and chilled. Then we all headed out to Lancaster to get our Christmas pics taken at walmart. ( I still don't get why we went all the way out there but who cares) and the lady who took our pics didn't have any eyelashes or eyebrows. :P That is probly a very mean thing to say but it's true and I'm not dissing her in any way I'm just saying. So tomorrow is Christmas craft workshop (yay!) then I'm helping w/ stage crew. It shall be another fun day. Well i'm gonna wrap this post up as it is getting late and I have to finish organizing my room. :D A couple more things I want to add tho...


for anyone who is interested, here is the sweater song.

What's that? A sweater! Crazy, funky, junky sweater.
To cold, getting fat? Trying to look like Robert Pat?
We've been there, we've done that, we see right through your funky act.


And for the record, some day I am going to try a steak taco at California Tortilla. ;)

that. is the end.


p.s. PIJ

btw. i have to add a reason why i am deeply depressed. the eagles r doing horribly. if u didn't kno, i'm a die hard fan of the birds, but lately, they haven't been pullin through. :( so sad. I mean come on ppls! 5 to 4?? we can do better than that.....

K, well I know that this blog has been getting unbearably boring, and I can't stand unbearingly boring blogs so I thought I'd try and fix that small prob of mine. :P So I am posting a sketch I did the other night. It is nothing special but I'd really love some advice and criticism so please feel free to comment... whoever you are.. :P Oh and btw I edited it on iphoto hence the distorted color. Here is the link cuz blogger's not letting me add the pic onto my blog. urggg. U might have to copy and paste... sorry for all the trouble. :P http://picasaweb.google.com/becky.lindsay.mac/NewAlbum1117091122AM?authkey=Gv1sRgCP7Qla_TnvHzEw#5405109026600764178

das Wochenede

Well just so you all know, that snazzy title means weekend in German. :D (felt the need to make up for not knowing 'goodbye') So, just like my title, my weekend was very snazzy. :) It started out on Friday, when I sewed pretty much all day trying to figure out costumes for the costume/ b-day party we went to that night. Kt was a Greek/Roman lady and we made her costume out of an old white sheet. It was quite difficult trying to make it not look like a sheet so that took awhile. Then (the fun part) me and Emma were thing one and thing two (kudos to the Adam girls for the brilliant idea) (and Jackie) but we had no red pants. So we ended up going to goodwill and getting these xxl ones (the only ones they had) so that's what I was sewing. But they turned out fine and we had lot's and lot's of fun. Oh yes, here is a link to pics: http://picasaweb.google.com/becky.lindsay.mac/SamS16thBDayParty?authkey=Gv1sRgCP_S34W3s8uhhgE# So on Saturday, we were planning on going to Missy's wedding but Mom had already made other plans we didn't know about. :( I was very depressed about it. But we ended up going to a tea house w/ our old neighbor, Rachael and it was lot's of fun. Then we walked around the shopping center and window shopped. As in not shopping for windows, but like shopping without buying anything. ;P Then my loverly sister Katie took me shopping for my b-day. :D We went to bath and body works, watched Kung-Fu Panda at peace-a-pizza and read magazines on Robert Pattinson at Barne's and Noble. I also scored w/ a very cute shirt off clearance at Old Navy. :D smiles. So that is how I spend my Saturday, oh yes and when me and Kt got home all us three girls worked out to the radio for like a half hr. intense. <3 sista workouts. Now it's Sunday and i just got back from church which was wonderful, and we are all going to Shadyside park for a picnik. So so long. :D

Dear world,

warning: this post is pretty much just me rambling.. so read at your own risk

Would you like to hear about my weekend? I thought so. :) Well it all starts off on Friday, except nothing fun happened on Friday so we'll skip that day. Saturday, I woke up early (bleh bleh ad bleh again) and we went to yard sales. Sometimes yard sales are worth going to (if you find a good one) and sometimes they are not. This one was a good one or else I would not be writing about it. So they had this fill-a-bag for a dollar thing and I was in luck (even tho i don't beleive in luck) because the clothes the were selling (yes, CLOTHES!!! :D ) were mostly all my size and BRAND NAME!!! So I got a bunch of fun cute clothes there. Then we headed on over to Kohls where I got this cute shirt thing that doesn't fit. But it was on clearance so i'll just fix it to my size. It was too cute to not get. ;) After Kohls we went to target and got jackets, gloves, and boots and I also found an adorable plaid short that I got for me. But once I tried it on (after we got it) I looked in the mirror and I reminded myself of a bell. It was one of those ones that has pleats on top then gets really baggy at the waist. So I have a feeling one of my sissy's (ahemm Katie) shall be stealing it from me. Which is ok I suppose since I sort of always steal her accesories. :D But anywho we saw the Ruth's at Target and I had great fun conversing w/ Rach about hats and such girly things. Then we all came home, happy and satisfied. Not that shopping can satisfy you, but it's pretty fun. :) Well after that we cleaned every nook and cranny of our house which was a very thrilling experience as you can image. yep. Then we went to the play Peter Pan at DC. I must mention that Bailey was there and she made the whole experience much more interesting. :D <3 We (me and Kt) challenged her that she couldn't find 5 ppl she new there. (she kept boasting she knew everyone) and it was much fun watching her talk to random ppl. :D Me and kt and Jackie were talking and we told Jackie that since she had so many ppl to talk to she should go talk to them. So she left us and just stood in the middle of the room CRACKING up (dont worry this is during intermission) cuz she was all alone. I laughed so hard i could have died. Come to think of it, I don't really see why it was so funny for her but she laughed anyway. Then she dissappeared all the sudden and me and kt walked out to the lobby and I saw a group of teenagers haning out. I was kidding and I was like, "kt, i bet jackie is totally standing in that circle pretending she knos ppl." and sure enough there was Jackie standing there w/ the teens. I pretty much did die that time. It was all very fun. And btw Jackie is the best person ever. :D <3 her. :D Now Sunday... hmmm I woke up and went back to sleep then woke up again and threw some outfit on the attempted to put on my contacts and failed, then we left and I attempted to put on my contacts in the car and failed. And then we got to church and I attempted to put them on there and failed. Then I prayed REALLY hard and attempted again and succeeded. :D It's amazing all the things God is in charge of that we can tend to forget about. Then after that I helped set up (we went early w/ Dad) and then we had a youth prayer time before the service! It was very refreshing to all get together and pray together. Then after that there was a message preached by Mr. Melinger (our guest speaker) smiles. We stole him from Covenant for a day. It was a very good message for the record tho. Then after it was over, I hung w/ a buncha ppl outside which was great fun. And then ppl left and I was left to tearing down with no girls to keep me company because my darling sister left me. But it was all chill cuz it was. Wow I just now realized my sentences are slowly becoming shorter. So anyway, back to my thrilling life. :) After tear down I was starving cuz I forget to eat breakfast and I do not do well when I forget to eat breakfast. So when we finally got in the car ready to head home, we realized we forgot to tear down a certain room so we had to go back except the doors where locked so we had to call the Janitor to let us in then once we got in he turned the lights out on us. I think he really liked us. jk. if u didn't notice.... ANYWAY after that we finally left and we went to Wawa and got a paper and I got a stomach ache and now I am home writing this feeling quite ill. I think I am getting sick. Oh brilliant. Ahh well life goes on. Well this has been a very long long post and I realize most of you won't read it hence it's leghth which is quite ok with me because I really do undertsnad why. I mean I wouldn't want to spend my glorious Sunday afternoon reading a blog post either. In fact, if you are reading this today (Sunday) you should really go outside because it is quite pretty. So that is how I am going to end this post. Go outside and enjoy the weather. :D


Thanks for reading!!

soap operas

Just so ya kno, this post has nothing to do w/ the title. :D (ok, maybe a little but only if u read between the lines....)

So my weekend was somewhat boring compared to other's ppls. So don't expect a thriller of a post here. Just sayin. It started off on Friday like most weekends start off. Except instead of waking up and starting school, I woke up, put on all the coats on I could find, and trudged outside to use a nail gun and saw zaw. funfun. Dad gave us the day off to get ready for the Harvest party, Sounded like a pretty good deal until I realized I would be doing manual labor all day. not.fun. No, it actually wasn't that bad. But I must say, I am very glad I am not a guy! So at like 4 Emma and Caleb came over and helped us finish setting up. But coveniently for us girls, the vaccum wasn't working so we ended up straightening hair. Then ppl started coming and life got interesting. :D See, me and Bailey had a brilliant plan for all the little kiddos and we made up all these super fun games. Excpet we couldn't really play them in the dark and Dad's handy-dandy light broke. So we got some other one that took us like a half hour to set up then finally when we were all set to start our fun little-kiddo games the little kiddos didn't cooperate. So me and Jackie ended up screaming our heads off trying to get their attention and eventually she left me and all failed. After that, I had to watch my little cuzzie for hours on end (he's the cutest) so I didn't really get to hang with my gal friends that much. :( Which was a big giant bummer. Later on we decided to play cops and robbers (which also failed) and I got pretty upset cuz of some certain things. But anyway, after failing at cops and robbers we all played monster which was great fun then we played nu-kum which in my opinion is the dumbest game ever. (mostly cuz we lost) but at least the other team was humble. ;) hehe. So that pretty much sums it up for Friday night, oh yes and after everyone left except us, the Gemmells, Demi's, and Blakes we had all sorts of random physical competitions such as who can do the longest hand-stand, girls push up contest, limbo.. and many more. :D Oh yes and Tal was beast at limbo and beat us all. Then on Saturday we had a sister's date and went out to see 'where the wild things are' which was an interestingly ok movie besides the part where the thing sticks the kid in her mouth. Yes, I won't go into detail. It was pretty nasty. Then we ate lunch at subway (EAT FERSH!!!) and the guy who served us was wearing a rabbit foot on his neck which pretty much spoiled my lunch. (why I notice these things I kno not...) then we walked around and went to five below, dicks sports and other fun stores. dick's sports was actually pretty boring tho. Then we came home and did chores and chilled. Me and Kt were going to go to the Adam's bonfire (or whatever they were doing there) but we couldn't cuz I really don't kno why. It pretty much spoiled my whole entire day. :( Then Sunday came around and I served in Children's ministry, spilled coffee on myself, and dealled with dramatic dealings. Which really frusterated a lot of ppl. The dramatic dealings did, not me. i hope. Then we went home and watched the game (AND THE EAGLES WON!!!!) and Emma chilled at our house. We were planning on baking something but we ended up talking and talking some more. Then Tal called and we all talked. and talked some more. Then Emma went home and my weekend ended.
It was a fun, dramatic, sad, happy, weekend and I was sad for it to end. :( Tomorrow we r having a bg girls prayer mt and I am so siked!!! :D

That's all for today, thanks for reading. :D
