Looking Back at Summer Days!

 I was reading my book (The Last Sin Eater by Francine Rivers) and noticed these clouds. I think they are so cool! They look so light! 

 Experimenting with my camera.

 My mom woke me up at 5:30am to show me this amazing sunrise. I ran outside and started taking pictures. The colours are simply stunning! 

 The earth is the LORD's, and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it; for he founded it on seas and established it on the waters. - Psalm 24:1-2

It is near the last day of August. Hard to believe. Summer has gone by so fast! It has been so enjoyable and amazing! I have learned so much this summer and I can't wait to see what God has in store for me! Enjoy what is left of this beautiful season and make the most of it!

P.S. As you can see, I have found out how to put pictures up! I have a lot more exploring to do about blogging! 

A Windy Day

Today resembles much of a fall day, even though it is August. It is cold, windy and the river is grey and very much alive! My family and I went to church this morning. It was and excellent service and it kept my interest the whole time. I am going to try to have a verse at the end of each post. Today's verse comes from Matthew 22:37 (ESV)

 "And he said to him, 'You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.'"

Great verse isn't it? I have a new book to read about Tim Tebow called, Through My Eyes by Tim Tebow and Nathan Whitaker. I haven't read it yet, but my friend and sister both really enjoyed it, so I think I will like it! Well, I am off to get in a cozy spot and work on my latest novel, we'll see how this one turns out! I am almost at 10,000 words. I have to get to 85,000 or something for it to be a decent novel length. I know, I shouldn't focus on length; just tell the story! Have a nice windy day and drink lots of tea! 

P.S. I am trying to learn how to post pictures... hopefully I will learn by the next post! 

An Introduction

This is the first time I have ever attempted to do something like this. I love to write and I've heard that blogging is a great way to do so. And so here I go...

As you have read above I love to write. I have tried to write novels but all have failed and turned into short stories rather then long books. I paint, water colour to be exact, and I am in love with every Beatrix Potter illustration out there. I am also a huge fan of Jane Austen. I can't tell you how many times I have watched "Pride and Prejudice". Along with Jane Austen movies, I am a bit of a "Star Wars" nut. 

I live out in the country on the river. It is one of my favourite places to be. I was home schooled up til grade nine and had many opportunities to explore where we lived. 

There is a little about myself. I think I am going to like blogging! 

Have a good evening!
