If you go to my blog and it looks different every time it is because it is Under Construction! I did a header for a friend of mine and I am inspired to make my blog look better...it has been boring long enough!!
Well, I had started with trying to make my own background and I was up until after midnight last night. So, I went to a website and got a pre-designed one and just made a header to match. So...the background is all someone else and the header I did. I also designed my friend, Krista's...she is on my blog list...you can go see what hers looks like. I just created it in a photo editing software program and then inserted it in the header.
What is a friend? Webster defines a friend as: a person whom one knows, likes, and trusts. It goes on to talk about a friend being a supporter. I would have the tendency to assume that everyone has at least one friend...maybe not a best friend or perhaps maybe not even a close friend but someone that they can call a friend. I know that difference personality types lend themselves for more friends than others. I am a sanguine which means that I have a lot of people that I consider to be my friend. I have always been the type of person that needs and wants friends...people around me who love me, encourage me, and support me. On the flip side of this, I have always had a hard time trusting people so I tend to be skeptical of people. Unfortunately, a friend described me pretty accurately this morning. She said that I (and she is the same way) have the tendency to dislike people until I have a reason to like them. No, not proud of...
If you know anything about me, you know that I am blunt. I am straight-forward, to the point, and to a fault, honest. This is something that I have often wanted to change about myself. Let's face it, there are things about each one of us that we would change, and let me be clear, there are MANY other things I would change but becoming more gentle has always been something I have longed for. I have had people tell me that I should be proud of this. They wish they could be more assertive like me. I guess there are good points to this type of characteristic but more times than not, I find myself getting into trouble because of it. Piggy-backing on that character istic flaw is the fact that I am a complainer. I would rather whisper that but again, if you know me, you probably didn't fall in the floor in disbelief that I just typed that. It is hard to admit. It is hard to tell a world (okay a few people) that read this that I...
We have had a fun couple of days! I worked on July 4th and Rachel and Daddy stayed home doing nothing...I think they enjoyed it! Saturday was pretty uneventful.....we went to Target and bought some containers so that I could put all of my clothes away that are TOO BIG!!! YAY!! It was also a sneaky way to allow my husband to see that I really don't have too many clothes!!! None of them fit! =) Sunday was church and we came back here and relaxed all day. Here is a picture of Rachel from Sunday. Rachel's dress was adorable....went to her ankles.... Brice had yesterday off too so we all went to Hawaiian Falls waterpark in Mansfield for a little water fun after Rachel's nap. It was a lot of fun except for the part where I fell down the stairs leading into the lazy river and in an attempt to keep my child's head above water (I was holding her), I tumbled down about 4 stairs, twisted my ankle, hit my knee, and scraped up the side of my leg all while swallowing a lot of water....
