Howdy!

Just thought I'd let you all know. I am going to really update one of these days... really. Right now I'm at my grand parents house. Today we went to my cousins first cheering at a Jr. Varsity Football game. We left at halftime just as it started to POUR! Those poor kids... Before that Grandpa took me to the driving range, to hit my first golf balls. Yes, I ACTUALLY did HIT most of them, not just empty swings, and one made it 80 or 90 yards. I think we're going tomorrow too. Maybe I'll get a picture.

I'm also up here to figure out what style hope chest I want. (Whenever one of us granddaughters graduates G&G gives us a hope chest.) We were looking for ideas online at this website http://www.trunk.com/ there was one for $5,550! Goodness, don't you think that's a little much?? They have lots of cool antique trunks, check it out.

$5,550. I still can't get over it...

How well do you know the Bible??

I was surprised I did so well. How about you?

Wow! You are awesome! You are a true Biblical scholar, not just a hearer but a personal reader! The books, the characters, the events, the verses - you know it all! You are fantastic!

"Guess the nummber of jellybeans in the jar and you could win a trip to....Hawaii!"

261...262...263...264...265...266...267...268...269...270...271...


Okay, so it wasn't Hawaii, or jellybeans for that matter, but I did try to guess the number of candies in the jar at the book fair at our library.

Children's Librarian:" So you going to try?"

Me:" Yeah, I might as well, I've never won anything before in my life. You can always try! What have people been guessing at?"

C.L.:"I've heard a lot of sixties, I don't even know what's in there, I just dumped them in."

Me:*Counts for a moment* "Looks like more than that to me, I'll try...78."



Fast-forward to lunch today. Phone rings. I answer.



Me:"Hello?" (with my best british accent:-)

Library:" Hi Lydia? This is the Public Library, I just wanted to let you know you won our guess the number of candies in the jar game at the book fair!"

Me: *Faint*


Okay, so I didn't faint, but I laughed pretty hard and was sort-of dazed for a sec. it's not that big of a deal, but when you've never won anything your entire life, it's pretty fun. Actually I didn't guess it on the number, but I was the closest without going over.

I thought it was fun:-)
