Dear Defining Joy.

Dear blog,

     I am incredibly sorry I am so neglectful and have not blogged for what seems like years. I am terrible. Yes I know. ;) Forgive me. I am trying my hardest to get caught up with life and then I will be blogging at least three times a week. (I hope) So, sit tight, don't let your pants fall off. You (my blog) will be up and running again soon. I hope. :P So, all this to say, I am the worst blogger. 

Love you owner, Amanda. 

<3 Autumn <3

I love Summer, cause it's warm. Cause I don't wake up shivering at night. I love Summer, cause of the beautiful golden light. 


Still, Autumn is wonderful. Even though I wake up shivering. I love it. Pumpkin pie, red leaves floating through the air, it's like the perfect jeans and converse weather...can it please be Fall and Summer at the same time? Fall has the perfect weather, although it's cold in the mornings, the afternoons are perfect, not too cold, not too warm. Summer, can you be like Fall? Fall can you be like Summer? It seems like in the Fall, my little siblings love to play outside so much more, cause they aren't dying in the heat. Every Fall we have at least one game of family football, where everyone just laughs at each other's poor skill. Fall is beautiful. **happy sigh**
Oh, another thing about Fall. Football, which is my new found love. Longhorns won today. Thanks Longhorns, you make me proud. (No, I am not one of those, people that are fans of the Longhorn's just cause their Texas, just cause they won...it's just I like them. Not because I'm some fanatic that is an idiot, that knows nothing about the sport., ok, so I don't know EVERYTHING) Go away. ;)


I was going to post much longer, but, I have a sudden urge for some Pumpkin Pie...wonder why? 


Something totally not a part of this post. 
I miss my sister. I talked to her this morning. She's been gone for a month, for that month I was with her a week and a half. I still miss her. How am I going to make it another month without seeing her at all? That's my agony for the day. Btw, she wants people to write herrrr!!!!!! So if you know Whit, this is her address.


Whitney Hall
1312 S. Ervay St.

Mucho love,
Amanda

My life is happy.

These are some happy moments of my life lately. :)

I went to the DMC and saw Whitney! :) That's probably the top of my happiness. I went and worked on staff. I never thought that working could be fun, apparently it is. :) For real though, I had fun. We left notes at each other's doors. We waved at each other. We made everyone jealous with our incredibly large amount of inside jokes. It was fun, really fun. Mostly cause I got to see her. :)

I met some new friends at the DMC. Quite a few actually and I love them all. :) Even when they all laugh at me when... never mind. I won't have room to explain it all.

I went to the State Fair. I love fairs. No doubt about it.

We got a cute doggie. I told my dad I would always hate our dogs until we got some sort of terrier, well...I got home yesterday and guess what was sitting by the door, a cute little Boston Terrier. It's a stray, but still, I think it's adorable.

Anyway, I had to gush of my happiness that God gave me. I also needed to post. Badly. I'm sorry dear blog, for you have been neglected.

Peace out. ;)
Amanda. :)

Earthbound.

I found my favorite store the other day when I was shopping with some friends. It's called 
Earthbound/Romancing the Stone. http://www.earthboundtrading.com/ I love it.
 It's like imported/eco-friendly/AMAZING stuff. I loved it. 

When Sisters Become Best Friends.

I <3 my sisters.

I really do.

They're my best friends.
We hang out all the times,
take each other out on our birthdays and we go shopping,
tell each other their clothes are dumb.
we yell, and scream at each other then five minutes later we will be laughing at how stupid our fight was.
We laugh at each other/with each other/at others. Yah, we do.
We share secrets,
we have retarded inside jokes.
We share clothes and even horde our clothes sometimes.
Always make the other one do the most work. Or we try.
We find husbands for each other.
We fly down country roads listening and singing to Taylor Swift in Whit's little car.
We turn off the hot water heater when each other are in the shower. Hehe. (Ok, only I do that.) ;)
We do each other's make up.
We have Starbucks dates.
We go on lunch dates.
We really do love to act like idiots together.
We couldn't live without each other.
We couldn't laugh without each other.
Dang! We most definitely could NEVER stop loving each other.
They're the Best in the West. :)
We're best friends.

I <3 my sisters.

Now that you're totally jealous of my awesome sisters...don't be jealous, jealousy is a sin.

"A best friend is a gift to cherish forever.
It's a special bond that crosses the boundaries of time and distance.
Time passes, but a best friend is constant in a world of change....."

(If this one's blurry, I think I will shoot this computer.)

"....Like a fine wine or a vintage car, our friendship gets better with age.
Life may have it's ups and downs but our shared dreams continue.
I don't thank you enough.
I don't know where I'd be without my best friend."

And the other little squirt. 


I <3 my sisters.
