lateeee

I was supposed to post last Saturday...but of course I didn't. We all know me. But at least I posted the link! There was a quote from me in there at the end..if anyone cared to read that far.

The weather in DC was PERFECT! There was none of that yucky snow/rain that everyone was saying we were gonna get. It wasn't too cold, and it was SUNNY! Yessssss.

I have to say...the Krispy Kreme donuts at the end...they just made it all worth while. All the walking, aching feet, and lack of sleep was forgotten when I saw those donuts.

Right. We're supposed to be talking about the MARCH. There were SO many people there! And all different too. There was lots of loud chanting. And Nicole was our free ticket through any crowd at all.

At one point, I saw a kid staring at her. And I gave him a good 30 seconds to correct himself, but of COURSE he didn't. So I told him "Staring at her won't make her any less weird." I don't think I've ever seen anyone turn that red. And it was all topped off by Mom's comment.

"That was epic."

FEAR ME!

March was a complete success!

March was a complete success! Hundreds of thousands of people. And it was sunny!

March for Life, DC

Finally! Tomorrow is the March for Life! We'll be leaving around 7:30 on a bus down to DC, arriving roughly around noon. Our group is still the LARGEST group of home schoolers to attend this event. It amazes me to see how many of my friends and peers are so passionate about abortion and are willing to make an effort for the voices of the unborn to be heard.

I'll be posting on Saturday (hopefully) a more extended post about the March, but tomorrow I might send a few live updates from my phone, and maybe a few pictures. Unfortunately those pictures will also be from my phone as I have no other way to get pictures up until after Saturday any other way. I can't promise much quality but I'll do my best.

"Truly children are a gift from the Lord; the fruit of the womb is a reward." (Psalm 127:3)

"God… from my mother’s womb had set me apart and called me through his grace." (Galatians 1:15)

"I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full." (John 10:10)

And so we go,

birthdays, concert, MARCH!

So much happening soon!

Let's start with my BIRTHDAY that is so SLOWLY approaching..but this Friday I will FINALLY be able to sit behind the wheel of a car and scare all those who dare traverse the highways on that fateful days. I hear the New Jersey Herald has let out a cautionary message about using public roads on that day. Wonder why...

So there is a new band rising in popularity...or it should at least. The name is F.i.R.E., which stands for Faith in Redemption Everlasting. It is a group of five boys who got together about a year ago to play their music. One of these is my brother, the scrawny one. They are having their FIRST ever official gig...opening for a band named Safelanding, at Brookdale Baptist Church in Bloomfield, NJ. The day is this Saturday, January 9th, and the doors open at 6:30pm. Cost is $5 per person. Good inexpensive night for fun and worship and music. Bring your friends, come check out the bands.

Last, the March for Life. This will be taking place on January 22nd, which is a Friday? I believe. I will be taking a bus down to DC with a group of other homeschoolers. We just so happen to be the largest homeschooled group to attend this event. Oh YEAH. This event is to protest abortion and to support pro-life movements. I hope to see many more people this year than last year. Help support a good cause!
