Irvine's Landing

As, most of ya'll know that Janie Pearl Wheless was my grandmother. She was a wonderful and bright lady and had an amazing realtionship with the Lord that most people would envy to have. She inherted Irvines Landing after her father died in 1999, and ran it 'til the days she died in 2008. Nana loved that place more than anyone in EVER could, and I do mean more thatn ANYONE. Nana basically dedicated her life to that store and her family most of her lifetime.This past fall, Irvine's Landing closed its doors. That was one of the hardest things I have every went through. Most people think it's crazy to have an emotional attachment a little ole raggady store, but I did. I have had so many memories there from the time I was born up until last year. It's where we went most everyday of the summer to swim and spend time with the family. Irvines is where I spent most of my time.In the years before, I would of never imagined the future without it. I planned for my children to have the memories I had as I grew up down there. I planned for Mama to yell at them like Nana did to stop flipping on the rails(you would know what I'm talking about if you were a "regular"). Where they would swing in the swings and have a wonderful converstation with the whole family.Now, It hurts to go down there to a place where I onced spent most of my life. Sitting on the front porch having a converstation with Papa, then looking up tares me apart cause I can't see the Irvines no more. Where did it go, Why did it have to go? have all been questions I have had and It makes me mad to think that I will never have any memories at Irvines no more, but life will go on and that just happens.

I'm Thankful..

At church tonight we had this thing where people stand up and say what they are thankful for. Well, I am ashamed to say that I didn't stand up even when I had alot to say. So, because of my shyness, I'm gonna tell everyone what I'm thankful for in this blog.

To begin with, I'm thankful for my relationship with my savior. He died for me, a sinner, so that I can live eternal life him, MY LORD. Next, I'm thankful for my family. My Dad, Mom, Josh, Joseph, and Abbey. I don't know what I would do with out them and how lucky I am to have them. I'm also thankful for the change in my life since August. He sent me to an amazing place called First Mt. Moriah. There I have grown closer with God, made new friends that who I call my best friends now, and I have also meet some people that I admire. I thank God for the night that I called Josh and said that I think I feel the Holy Spirit callend me to 1M2. I tell you its amazing how he works. I'm thankful for everything that he is has given me and love him so much.

Also in this blog I wanna do a recap of 2008. This year has been a very long ride. Lots of suprises that were happy but also sad. From the death of my Grandma(myhero), The announcement that my mama had cancer, the start of high school, and to the moment that I found where God wanted me, it has been a wild long ride. Yes, this was not a good year, but God works in mysterious ways. Am I mad at God of somethings that happened...NOO. God does everything for a reason and it's his plan in life. I'm also thankful for that.

Well. HAPPY NEW YEAR YA'LL

10 DAYS 'TIL TWILIGHT ! I have been looking forward to this day since Febuary. I encourage you to read them if you love a mystrical love story.

A world of Fustration.

I have had alot of fustration lately. Starting a new school has been hard. I have had to learn new teacher's teaching ways, find my way around, and so much more. I'm lucky to have a good good classes for my semester and they also helped me fine my way around the school.

I have also had a different kind of fustration. A kind of fustration that know body should go through with. I also know some friends that are in the same boat as me, and they have it ten time worse. I just don't see how some people can be so mean about someone following what they think God has in their future. It hurts me to know that I have dissappointed some people and I'm sorry, BUT I can't be sorry for following what God has in store for me. If I let these people's words controll me am I doing what I need to be doing for God? NO..and I'm so proud of my friends that have not given up with all the negative things said about them. They have many sucessfull things in their future. I also think Greenwood needs more people like them.

I wrote this post for many things. One, to vent of course..I can't keep everything up. Two..To show people what I and many other people have been through. and Three..to possible help people in this same situation:).

watch this.

Obama.

November 4th is coming up and we all know what that means..ELECTION TIME. Of course, I'm not old enough to vote but I do have an opinion on somethings. First of all, how in the world did the US get stuck with these two men. Know, I don't really have a problem with John McCain but I think some people that were running like Mike Huckabee, would of been a much reliable republican candiate. Well, today in class we were discussing this issue(which is a big mistake to discuss this with a bunch of teenagers), and I heard something that I think was completely cruel. Obama does support Abortion, I know and I have know that for along time. The trick is do you know what kind of Abortion he supports?? Well, he supports the regularly heard Abortion but also the kind when you give the baby something to kill it then deliver it. The baby is not completely grown but old enough to live. If the baby is still alive when it is born the nurse or the mother holds it unil it dies. If you ask me they are both murder, but how can a man that wants to run our country support something like this. If he support this and is elected president, what is gonna happen then?
