Country girl

At first glance most people would think me as more of a "city girl" But at heart I am a true country girl. Horses are a HUGE part of my life! I have been working with/riding for years and really love it! I have had some very scary things happen that include horses I have had horses rear, buck, and just plain run me over before. I remember the first time I started working with horses at my nighbors (you can learn more about it at my blog http://horsesplainandsimple.com/ If you brows around you can find lots of info) I came wearing tennis shoes and jewlery...of course that didn't work out, but have learned a lot over the years! I know how to handle lots of sticky situations (such as being stuck in a trailer with a rearing horse and much more). I love horses. Period.


I love this picture!

I can not believe we get to take this baby home! I am going to stay at the hospital with my mom tonight so my dad can get some sleep! They were up all night so they were really tired!

    The Hunger Games

    Hello!
    So I finally got around to reading The Hunger Games. I'm not quite sure what i thought of it....When you think about it the plot is really lame. I mean they go into this game where they have to kill each other, sounds great right??? Until the ending I thought it was pretty good. The author was an amazing writer though! She painted such vivid pictures (not always the best thing). I'm really curious what you guys thought of it!! I have heard a lot of different opinions. Some of my friends LOVED it and others hated it. I really didn't like the wolf/human thing. Sick. It really ruined the whole book for me!  (you would only understand if you have already read it). Comment and let me know! Also I saw the movie trailer. That movie has the potential of being really good or really really bad! Does anybody know what the movie is rated? Has it come out yet? Are the next Books in the series any good???
    Please comment!

    Here goes it, and I hope you enjoy this little blab about Lucia.


    I was born on August 15th, 1995, to missionary parents and a small northwestern town; the second eldest in an eventual family of six. I currently have two sisters: Olivia (18) and Anne (10), and one brother: Mark (13). My mom homeschools all of us, and I have learned in the home since kindergarten.



    ^This little girl right here
    is
    a...

    writer who is attempting her first novel,

    pianist of eight years who plays for her church and local homeschool choir,

    And just as a side note, I am:

    one who has read Darwin's Origin of Species just for experiance
    who understands evolution as well as creation
    Pinned Image

    ..and still believes in the One True God, Creator of the Universe
    who dies for us on the cross
    who is seated at the right hand of God this very moment
    and who will return for us, if we have not already left this earth, with a trumpet sound on a day not very far away.
    (1 Corinthians 15:52)

    Yep. All packed into this little girl right here.



    ..and that, my friends, is only scratching the surface. :]


    Thank you again!!!!!!!!!!
