Art-

Olivia, I did this portrait for her Sweet 16! :-)

Will Smith!

David, my big brother! I drew this for his birthday in August.. yes yes, I'm very behind on posting my drawings on here! lol :)

So there you have it! Sorry I'm kinda behind on posting my art.... but hey, I finally did! So it's all good, right?? :)

Speech-

Well I figured, since the January Medford tournament is coming up.. I usually (well at least in past years) have done a post on what i'm going to do for speech this year... so, I thought I better post and not break the tradition.

So here you are, my post about speech- :)

Like I said earlier, the Medford tourney is near the end of January. So my whole family (well those who are competing at least) have been frantically searching the internet, reading books, watching movies, etc. to get ideas on what to do for interps!

I'm doing a duo with David.. which means I will mainly be writing the script, and figuring out for sure what we're doing.

And I think I've figured it out.

"The Scarlet Pimpernel" will be our duo for this year! What do you think? will it be good? or what? haha... idk, I'm a little worried seeing as I just read the book in two days and we just made the decision to do it 3 days ago.. but I figured I might as well make the decision so I can just go ahead and write the script!

So yup. that's it.

As far as my dramatic goes... well, I'm probably going to be doing "The Last Disciple" which has a ton of sad stories inside the book.. but I'll be doing just one of them. The script is written, I just gotta memorize it etc.

So yup.

As for life in general.. well it's good. We got our Christmas tree up, and we even put lights up outside, which is super cool! cause we've never done that before. :)

So yup.... haha! (this is last time I'm gonna say that, I promise ;D)

Hope y'all are doing! Sorry for the long post.. I had no clue it was gonna end up this long... (and this boring :P) lol

Yours Truly,
-Destiny :-)

JUMP!!! :)

So yeah... this was when we did musical practice's.. and had soooo much fun... and would jump up and down.. up and down... up and down..........

Ok, so we might have only done it like twice. But it was fun none the less!

Anyways, just thought I should post something on here... since I hardly ever do :P

So yeah! That's all for now!

Love ya'll!!!

funny fact...

.."weird" post's on my blogs get more comments then sensible ones.

i know. weird huh? ;)

-Destiny

just..... a post.

Wow...

just wow..

::sigh::

I have not posted an actual "post" (as in, me writing to you all) in a very long time!

I know I know.... you probably aren't even reading this blog anymore! but, it's still in existence... so, I might as well post.

=)

ok, I'm making no sense. Which, would explain to you all, that I've been on a very short amount of sleep the past couple of weeks.

::smiles::

I'm so weird.

Anyways........ if I haven't lost you already, then you must be a friend! well... not to say, that if I have lost you (meaning, you're not reading this anymore) you're not my friend.. but, you get my point. well actually, you would get my point.. cause you wouldn't be reading this.

ok. I'm done... jee, I just realized.. I say "ok" way to much!
sorry :P

so I'm shutting up now....

BYE! =)
and good night :D

Yours truly,
♥♥♥,

...

I sat in a chair near the back of the room, watching one of my cousins perform a beautiful solo. We had finally done it! We had put together a list of different songs to sing at an elderly peoples home.

I leaned back in my chair, and glanced over to look at the faces of the people in the crowed, when I noticed a woman... her eyes were beginning to water as she watched some of my younger siblings and cousins play around the room. I could feel the bittersweet feelings she was having, and I could read them all across her face.

At that moment, I realized something.. how blessed I really was. Here was a woman, weeping, for facts I do not exactly know, but who probably saw the joy in our families, and who perhaps may had never been surrounded by so much love.

Then I listened to the words of the song that my cousin was singing, "You raised me up, so I can stand on mountains, you raised me up, to walk on story seas, I am strong, when I am on Your shoulders, you raised me up, to more then I can be..."

This woman may have never known the love of God, or maybe she had. Our goal in putting on the performance though was to shine the light and the love of Christ, and I pray and hope, that we did just that!

To God be the glory.

Computer Art-

From beginning to End

Well, here's an eye that I drew/designed (not sure how you'd say that) on the computer. It was a lot of fun! I've never really tried to draw realistic looking things on the computer... so I thought it was pretty cool how it all came together.

Hope you like it!

Blessings,

-Destiny

Tami

Here is a drawing I did of my aunt Tami for her birthday. It’s a
picture from when she got married. Isn’t she beautiful?! :D I ♥ her
sooo much! She’s the BEST! =)

Ok, hope y’all like it. Oh, and just so you know, she wore a white
cowboy hat with a veil over it on her wedding day. So yeah, don’t
think it’s a huge white crown ;)

-Destiny

PS. This portrait took me one day to draw! I was pretty excited about that.

Fair results.-

Well.. I entered my drawing in the Jackson County Fair (well actually, it was under my cousins name because I forgot to enter, so he let me use his slot.. thanks Kolten!) anyhow, I was pretty excited about the results! :D

So yeah.. thought I'd let all you bloggers out there know and show you the pic.. also, just wanted to say that I'm sorry for not posting that much anymore... gosh, I think facebook took over my blogging time! lol! but, it shouldn't! So I'll try and post more, ok? ok! :D

Alrighty, better get going! ttyl laterz!
