I Revamped my Blog!

So for a while I just didn't feel like writing on here, and I think the reason was because I really didn't like my layout. So I decided to redo and look for new cute stuff! I knew with the amazing title "Echoes of a Burning Laughter," (from Skyeler) the theme should be fire, but I couldn't find any fire backgrounds that I liked. So I decided to go with a different title (which also came from Skyeler) "Random Melodies." and went from there. I will probably add more stuff as time goes on, but this is a start. Hopefully this will make me post more, and I already have ideas working for new posts. Talk to you all later!

Thoughts from the Backseat of a Car

Hello 4ish followers! Wow, I have not posted in....... a really long time. Well I am coming home from a short vacation. Daddy had a Conference in DC so on Sunday we dropped him off there, spent the night in DC, then we girls went to a little Bed & Breakfast about 4 hours away. It was the cutest thing ever! It was a little cottage that could have been in a story book!it was all green and pink on the outside, and Blue and Yellow on the inside.But the best part was it was on an island! A while ago, the owner decided that she wanted a island, but she was in the middle of a field in Virginia. So she made a deal with a farmer to dig out a pond and island. There was a bridge leading to the house, it even had a smaller island in the middle of the small pond and a paddle boat so you could sail around the lake. So cute! We watched Lord of the Rings throughout the 3 1/2 days we were there, and then to finish it, we watched The Lord of the Beans! No we are on our way home, and I am so excited about Calleigh's Party tomorrow! Dad is driving, so the landscape is passing fairly quickly. All the fall colors are so beautiful and there are plenty of idiots on the road. On Saturday when we first started on our trek, there was snow in one of states!(I cant remember which one...) I think that is about it.... it was an awesome trip! Oh! I also got great news while I was gone.
This quarter I had to memorize A-M in the ASL Dictionary then had a 100 question test and you had to get 80% or better, (so you could only miss 20 questions, plus there are going to be 5 chances for extra credit.) After I took the test, I thought for sure I had failed it, like missed 26 questions. Well, I got my grade on Wednesday and I only missed 21 questions! So all I have to do it get one point of extra credit and I passed the class! Okay, I think that really is it :) Talk to you all later!
