Why I did it...

Here is a short video to let you know why I chose to make my blog what it is.

This summer my family and I took a trip to Gettsyburg, PA. I really enjoyed me time there but thought it went by wayyyyy to fast. I love history and when I walked on the battlefield I just thought of all the famous people who also walked here and it amazed me.

A few months ago my church had a contest to see who was the most "uncommon" in the church. Now when they say uncommon they don't mean weird or crazy, even though we are in a way, but they mean who lives out their faith and helps anyway they can. My whole family won the contest and we had to appear on stage for all 3 services. It was a fun time just to be with my family but I hated the being out on stage thing in front of hundreds of people. I enjoy every moment I get with them cause lately there hasn't been a lot now that I am in college starting up my life.

I know I am putting two posts up today but I missed last friday so I am making up for it. This picture on the left is of me and my best friend Chelsey. She has definitely been one of the greater things in life! This girl has put up with me for ten years! She was always there for me: When my car wouldn't start, when i was so stressed out i just blew up, when my cat died, when we graduated. Her and I will always be friends :) She has gone away to college now and I miss her bunches! We have made so many memories in our first chapter of life together and now the next chapter of life begins....

(purple is her favorite color)

Lovey

Last Sunday I spent the day with my cousins at our friends birthday party. We were in a picture taking mood so that is what we did. We were running out of ideas when my little cousin ( the "o" in lovey) decided we should spell out the word love. We all thought it would be a great idea until we realized there was 5 of us and only 4 letters in the word love. We tried to make my cousin on the end an exclamation point but instead it turned into a "Y". I love this picture because it reminds me of how much fun I can have with my cousins/sister. We all lovey each other.

Introduction

Hi everyone, my name is Elizabeth. Life is rough sometimes, as i am sure everyone knows, but I wanted to show you through my blog that there are some greater things in life. The only way to get to those greater things is to sometimes go through rough time. I believe that everything in life happens for a reason and nothing is a coincidence. Enjoy my blog and I hope to cheer you up a little :)
