cRaFt Time

  While Jessie took a nap, poor Kimmi was in bed with a tummy bug, and sweet little Kamryn stayed in Kimmi's room to keep her company and watched a movie with her. That left two Brown girls.

Nona, and I, took on the challenge of a craft.

Nona got a purse kit in her Christmas stocking, and I "helped" her do it.

She actually did do some of it with me.

I think she'll end up being a crafty girl after all!

We had a lot of fun spending craft time together!

Nona is so sweet hearted, and I'm so glad I'm privileged enough to be her big sis!

God gave me a very special job of being an influence on my baby sister.

I love my job!!

I don't have a picture of her with the finished project yet. It was so funny because I was looking over pictures and noticed that she had started makeing a crosseyed look in the last few pictures. She's so funny, but now I'm with out pictures! haha

Hope everyone had a good day!!

Proverbs 31:13

She selects wool and flax and works with eager hands.

• Ten Things I Love Tuesdays •

My good friend, off and on Blogger, Alyssa, has started doing something called "Ten Things I Love Sundays", and I, being the little copy cat I am, have decided to do the same. Except, I'm going to be spice'n things up and doing it on Tuesdays. Okay, I know that's not spice'n things up. I've just decided to do it on Tuesdays.  =D

So, here are my first "Ten Things I Love Tuesdays"

I Love:

Very Decorated Salads

When we were out today we went by Publix on the way home and everyone got chicken for lunch, but mom and I got a very yummie, and colorful, salad.

Autumn Colored Leaves

Living in the south, or at least where I live, you can expect to see colorful leaves in December. Yesterday I noticed how pretty the leaves looked on the road right before you get into my neighborhood. It looked like rainbow row except, instead of old Downtown Charleston houses, they were trees. =)

Guesstures

 

We got this game on Nona's birthday so we could celebrate in a fun and special way.

We have now played every Sunday night since, and it's hilarious to watch my fam play.

Each person has their own way of thinking through and playing the game.

Reese's Peanut Butter Trees

Oh my goodness!

Do I even need to say anything here?!?!

Not Having a TV

I was one of the less enthused about the removal of the precious, and I really didn't think I would ever be saying this... but it really has been a blessing not having it. I mean, my parents have been talking about getting rid of the television since.... I don't know maybe since we first got a TV, and so I never thought their words would ever turn into actions. Now that they did it, I don't really even miss it.

We have been sitting around just being with each other more. We've been doing more things like playing guestures and card games, and the house has, beileve it or not, been less messy.

The Library

This is our library....

No, it's not really, but it's beautiful, huh?

Kimmi and I went to a much less extravagant library today, and I got a new library card.  I'm particularly excited about a book on photography.

Rain

I absolutly love the rain. It could rain all the time and I'd be happy.

I'm looking now out at the pond, and it's  actually raining pretty hard.

It's been raining so much here you'd think we were actually in London.

When Crickets Cry

 

I have really enjoyed reading this book, and I'll probably end up finishing it tonight or tomorrow.

Charles Martin is a phenominal writer, and I definitely recommend his books.

(I sound like I'm doing a book review)

Trying New Things

Jesus

I love, and am so thankful for Jesus! Because of Him, we can now have joy, and peace with God.

We have this nativy set.

 I think we've gone through about three of this particular one ove rthe years. We love it.

Press the angel and it  plays  "Away in a Manger", but right now we can't find baby Jesus.

So, it's a little insignificant for the moment. ;D

Well, I did it!

When I sat down at the computer (45minutes ago!) I had not a clue what the 10 things would be, but that made it all the more fun. =D

Thanks for the idea Alyssa!

•Bonnie and Clyde•

I absolutely adore this picture of Cole and Kamryn. It just really speaks for itself. They are definitely a little team. Bonnie and Clyde, right here folks. I'm serious! 

Today Cole and Kamryn- Ok, I'm not proud of what they did, I'm just telling- they were on a walk with Kimmi, and there were two little boyscouts, probably about 9-years-old selling popcorn door-to-door, and pulling it around in the back of their cute little red wagons. Anyway, one of the two little boys said to Cole, "Heeey, don't you know you're riding a girls bike?" and Cole, aka Clyde, the comeback KING said, "Well , don't you know you're pulling a little girl wagon?" and Kamryn, aka Bonnie, added in, "Yeeeah, and where are the little baby dolls that you should be pulling in the back?!?" After this was all said and done Cole, the popcorn LOVER of the Brown family, asked the boys, "How much is your popcorn?" I thought that last line was pretty funny. Just so everyone knows they were corrected. My parents didn't see the same amount of humor in it that I did. They were looking at it from the perspective of evangelists, and Cole and Kamryn were terrorizing the boyscouts. This would be opposite of evangelizing here people. I have to laugh whenever I think about it though. 

Do ya'll have any funny brother/sister stories?
