 Teddy was breathing down my back the whole ride:)

What does an elf call a selfie?  
An elfie!  Haha, that's a knee-slapper!  Sorry, I just love puns:)


 Teddy loved to toss his head around

 Smithy!

 A big draft horse.  He tried biting my hand and nipped it.  Silly horse=D

The Silent Seeker Update=D

For those of you who are interested in how I'm doing on the Silent Seeker, I'm on page 130 and starting on chapter 14.  Here are the chapter titles:) 

I was thinking of naming chapter fourteen 'Queen Kendra' but it doesn't really fit.  Does anyone have any ideas what chapter fourteen should be named?  Honestly, just give me any ideas.  It's after a battle and Devin and his army are going home, but I can't call it Homebound since that's chapter ten's title

Here are four of the six rings and some of my medieval coins...yes...I'm a silent seeker...muahahaha;)  

I'll keep you updated about when I get a chapter title for chapter fourteen:) 

Colorado Part 2

On Friday we went on a long bike ride through the mountains

The Lonely Mountain;)

I loved the rock walls alongside the roads

A stunning view from the bike trail

a flowing stream

a raging brook

Lily and I

I just really like this picture of the bike and the rapids

the company stopping for bathroom breaks

"Hi there!" 

another 'lonely mountain'

"Oh that thou wouldest rend the heavens, that thou wouldest come down, that the mountains might flow down at thy presence," Isaiah 64:1 

That night, our cousins came over to our condo for dinner and games

 
Daddy grilling us some delicious hamburgers and hotdogs

Saturday afternoon, Dad, Lily, and Uncle Doug, and I went white water rafting.  I think it was my favorite thing on the whole trip!  It was so fun:) 
Here are our lovely wetsuits=D

Colorado Part 1

We went to Colorado on Thursday for a week and I took lots(tons) of pictures so please bare with me.  'Bare With Me' should've been the name for my blog;)  I'm going to be posting the pictures of each day's events.

 We had to wake up at 5:00 am.  Let's just say that I don't adjust early...well, if I have to I can, but most of the time I wake up early I don't want to adjust.

 Here's a funny story.  We leave the house and have to stop for a bathroom break five minutes after leaving and only a block away=D  haha!


I was so happy that our cousins got to join us on this trip.  It's funny 'cause both of our families were planning on going to Colorado for a family vacation separately and then we figured out that the other family was going also.  And then we found out that our condos were only a block away from each others.  God planned that out perfectly!

 The sun on the fog was so gorgeous that morning

 SUBWAY!

 One does not simply 'not' eat nutela whilst traveling;)

 a storm headed our way

 we drove through a tumble weed storm.  It was an interesting experience.

 "I want to see mountains again, Gandalf!  Mountains!" -Old Bilbo

 I loved the cliffs that hung over the roads

 gorgeous scenery!

 did I mention I liked the cliffs? ;)

 Our home/condo where we stayed was by a lovely, dazzling stream

 a quaint little walk way

MOUNTAINS!!!

Part 2 will be coming soon:)
