birthday.

yesterday was amazing.

I woke up to my mom writing

'happy sweet 16, sweetie!!'

and putting a pretty necklace on my dresser.

I came to school and was greeted my best friends standing there, balloons and cards in hand. <3

I passed out my valentines to all of my friends {except a few who were either left at home and I didn't see them}.

After school, we took Steven home from school, then went to my favorite restaurant- Mongolian Barbeque- for dinner, then went to Payless for flats for my birthday party on Saturay.

From there, we drove a half hour away to go to Deb, so I could get a new skirt {my othr one is hiding...}.

I got a black shirt, black v-neck shirt, and two tank tops.

I'm wearing the skirt, the flats, and a blue flowy shirt for my party!

I'm excited!!

Birthday party attendees:: Alisha, Abby, Ashleigh, Jenna, Steven, Dusty, David and Brian.

It shall be great. :)

But that is all for today.

Lately, I've been having a realy hard time with everything in general, with struggling to fit in in my youth group, to parent issues, to friend troubles, but yesterday... It was different.

Youth group? Amazing. We laughed so, so much. It was probably the best youth group time we've had since... well, since Melanie and Kevin left. You could definitely tell God was there yesterday :)

Mom? We hung out. We read. We talked. She made chili for dinner. Overall, we had a great day, and we didn't fight, at all (even when I made her get up just to get a spider out of my room).

Friends? We laughed, we made new inside jokes, I might have even gotten closer to a few girls from youth group.

It was a great day. <3

smell the roses.

{Look here!}

Well, I did this, for the first time. I took a sticky note and wrote some lyrics of a really great song with awesome lyrics ('you are treasured, you are sacred, you are His, you're beautiful' -beautiful-mercyme). Then, I waited until no one was paying attention and stuck it to a desk in a classroom where I knew a friend who had been struggling was going to sit. It stayed there through the day, so I hope it made some people's day. :)

followers.

So hey, do you know how happy it makes me when I get a new follower?? unless you're Alisha or maybe Ashleigh, you probably don't. Seeing as how I only have 11 followers, even one more makes my day. :)

So you should help. like, post about my blog&link it to me.

Also, I am in great need of someone's great need of someone's {free} button-making skills. Help?!

It would be greatly appreciated and you might even make it to my 'featured favorite' post or my 'favorite blogs' page when I get it up! ;)

Please and thank you!!
