Featured follower (Mary)

My name is Mary Susannah, but I often go by Sue-Sue, Susie Lou and Susan according to different people, but I much prefer plain ol' Mary. I live in a tiny town deep in the country where everybody knows your name, and while I really love it here...I do enjoy going to the city once and a while to go shopping at the mall, eating at fancy restaurants and going to concerts. I love to bake and cook just about anything. I also enjoy reading, writing, singing, taking pictures and blogging (of course). I'm not a big fan of sports...maybe because I'm kind of short and not very strong so I have never been good at them, but I do enjoy shooting hoops once in a while and I love to go bowling...(if you call that a sport) As for my blog, it is kind of like a diary of my life, where I can post bits and pieces of whats going on in my own little world. I try to keep things fun and interesting for everyone who visits my blog, as well as sharing my faith and love for Christ...without Him I don't know where I'd be in life. I strive everyday to be more like Him, and while I also fail daily...He is always there to lovingly pick me up and set me back on the right track. As you can see, I'm not much different from any other teenage girl. I often find myself longing for approval, beauty and love- but then I have that little reminder that I already am all that and much more in the sight of God...no matter what earthly humans might say. I am my own unique person, nothing more, nothing less...and even better, I am God's.

And while the subject is me...I have been inspired along with a bunch of other bloggers to join Olivia's "People Are Imperfect Campaign For Bloggers Who Are Awesome" or "PAICFBWAA" It's where you muster up enough courage to add a not-so-great picture of yourself where you are totally and naturally you...no make-up, editing or airbrushing...and while I don't wear make up...(other then shiny chap sticks/glosses, and I do curl my eyelashes and trim my eyebrows...but does that doesn't necessarily count as make-up.) But I do often tweak up my pictures before posting them on my blog and other things...as in I boost up the color and lighting and do a bit of softening or sharpening here and there. At first I didn't think I would join "PAICFBWAA"...but why not? We were made in God's image...and I shouldn't be embarrassed to show what I really and truly look like...sooooo...

-here you are- Yours Truly...



OH MY GOSH YOU ARE GORGEOUS! THANK YOU SO MUCH! You did it perfectly!

what do ya'll think?

Hi Awesome, Cool, Amazing ,Sweet followers ♥!
SO sorry I wasn't about to do "Fashion Friday" this week (and last we and the last week ;) Sorry I have been really busy. I thought you were supposed to get LESS busy in the summer time *sigh* anyways. I was wondering if you guys had any ideas about what Other things I should do on my blog(like things to improve it) I want people to be *interested*I want them to *want* to read it. Do you guys have any ideas? it's an idea you got from another blog and you just love reading that blog because of it. Or maybe it's something you do on your blog that people love to here about, maybe you just made one up! Please comment and give suggestions.
Ps also i have NO idea how to get a new background on blogger (because of those changes) could you guys tell me how??

Elmer (that's what my sissy used to call me ♥ :)

My every day life

As you can see me and my siblings had some fun the other day. Lets just say that one of us (MAYBE it was me ;) started it by taking a clump of mud and throwing it at the back of my sisters head. By the end we ALL looked like this, even Jacob was muddy, but he was the smart one and he didn't want to be in the picture looking like he did, plus we needed SOMEONE to take the picture! My parents thought it was funny too. We used the show them the picture AFTER your you get cleaned up trick) works every time ;)
