Randomness...

So... I don't really remember what I posted last time, but I think i know...(that made a lot of sense) not too much has happened I guess.....This weekend was our weekend to go to West Virginia (where my family on my mom's side lives)...I always love going back there, It's SOO much fun and kinda like my 2nd home! I usually hang out with my cousin, Sierra & we have so much fun together even though she's younger than me.... The bad thing about going this weekend was that so much other stuff here was going on that I had to miss... Friday night there was a Signature Sound Concert (my fav quartet) in Portsmouth, Ohio which isn't too far .. Saturday was my friend Janae's, from elementary school & jr. high, wedding and Friday & Saturday was our church campout and picnic...we can't change our weekend to go to West Virginia though because we go flea market weekend. Dad always takes Papa to the flea market, and lately me and Sierra have been taggin along! :) My Papa always looks forward to the flea market...he starts talkin about next months like the week after this months (if that makes sense) it's good for him just to get out of the house...see, he takes care of my Mama, who is in very poor health, and just getting away from her and out is REALLY good for him....so yeah... we left here Friday afternoon and arrived there Friday evening (it only takes 2 1/2 hours) we got back there earlier than normal, but once we got there we found out my aunt & uncle and cousins were gone to campmeeting... so me and mom and dad hung out at my grandparents house... see, my aunt & uncle and mama & papa live on the same piece of property, just across the creek from each other..mom and dad stay with my grandparents and i stay with my aunt & uncle... so, yeah..i was SOO bored i had NOTHING to do, so i just out my camera and took lotsa random pics, you know dairy queen cup, grass in sidewalk kinda pics...there was way too many to post here so i just put a few..to see the rest go look at my facebook...so finally they got home from campmeeting and i hung out at there house with my cousin till we went to bed (late)...we got up Saturday morning and went 2 the flea market with dad and papa... well we ride with them but once we get there we go on our own...so it was SOO hot outside Saturday, we kinda went throught the outside booths really fast cuz Sierra wanted to go inside the buildings which are cooler... so we did but of course dad and papa take a LOT longer cuz they eat (we ate b4 we got there) and look and lot slower and more thorougly than us... so we looked outside again more thorougly then back inside and eventually we just sat on some empty tables in empty booth in one of the buildings and just watched people go by... eventually dad & papa came in and we left like 30 min. later... after that we went 2 look at a motor & tranny dad had bought earlier (let me just say right now that we took papa's car and the drivers window is stuck down so a lot of our a.c. went out the window and it was hot in there so some windows were rolled down) so we parked in this guys driveway way out in the country and dad got out to look at the stuff.... so Papa, Sierra, and me stayed in the car... well Sierra was changing purses (she bought a new one at the flea market) well i don't know what i was doing but i heard Sierra scream and i looked up and saw a wasp in the car (she said later that she looked up from her purse and it was right in front of her face) so she opened her door and went outside (rather quickly) well the wasp flew on over to my side of the car (her window was open mine wasn't) and I screamed..well he got in between me and my door so .....*cough*cough*... i kinda dove across the seat and landed on my stomach (on the seat) with my hands on the gravel outside from there i crawled outside, laid on the ground for a minute then got up... from there we went and sat on a stone wall thingy till dad was ready 2 go..it was a very interesting happening and needless to say Sierra was dying laughing the whole time and everytime she thought of it later she laughed.... anyways.... we went back "home" later we (me and Sierra) went to walmart with her dad, uncle george, while he bought stuff for supper (we LOVE going to walmart!!!lol) and then later like 10 pm we went again with my parents... stayed up late again ... sunday we went to there church...they have a new pastor who is SOO Much better than there last one, i'm SOO glad!!! we hung out sunday afternoon at their house and left sunday evening... so yeah that was my weekend!...

Mom and Tonya have been going through tons of recipe magazines mom has gotten over the years and are cutting recipes that look good out and putting them on index card thingys!... well mom got a laminator machine thingy to laminate them...just a lil one but its SOO much fun! lol.. i could entertain myself for hours with it! lol..ok so i'm easily amused..seriously though, its really cool to send it through and it comes out so cool looking... we tried one of the new recipes last night (i cooked it) taco casserole, it had bowtie noodles, cheese, salsa, ground beef, etc it was REALLY good we all liked it... today for lunch we tried 2 new recipies dressing stuffed chicken and twice baked potatoes (i did the chicken, tonya did the potatoes) and it turned out really well too...

We're going on vacation next week to Gatliburg/Pigeon Forge... hopefully Sierra can go with us.... i'll post about it after it happens .. lol and post pics...
