AWWWWW...Summer is here!!!! ( well almost) God is sooo good!
today was such an amazing day.... the weather was sooo beautiful.....sunny with a high of 75!!! it was just plain gorgeous out there! Ella had a great day just hanging outside...she was sooo happy...
we just went for a walk and it was so nice! except for the sad fact that someone was burning leaves and it didnt smell all that great...not to mention the extremely thick smoke....it was still great though...:)
well, school is almost over and summer is on its way.... remember to thank God every day, (every hour, every minute, every second!!!) for his amazing blessings....and his awesome creation... Praise him for every breath you take...because we so dont deserve it...
Only by His Grace,
Gigi

Pop it, Lock it, Polka dot it!!!!!
So I went to go see the Hannah Montana Movie a few weeks ago... I'm not a huge fan of her but it still was a fun movie...
Anywho, there is a pretty cool dance in the movie called the Hoedown Throwdown...(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m_aRYNHjFr4)
So when i got home i looked it up on youtube... Ella heard it and has been OBSESSED ever since...:) I just happened to figure out how to do the whole dance...along with Ella, she now can sing and do the whole dance...(her dancing is a bit of a stretch but it is funny to see her do it)
It has been sooooooo nice out and i just love it....God is sooooooooooo good!
But i gotta get up early so i will post again soon...just not tonight...;)
In Jesus Christ alone,
Gigi

Mothers day fun....
We had a great day today....
We went out to my great aunts house and got to see all the cousins and aunts and uncles etc....
it was really a great time.... they have 80 acres of gorgeous rolling hills...so we ran around there and had a great time... then we went back to my grandma and grandpa's house....(ella calls them o'd mama and o'd papa...only because she couldnt say grandma or grandpa when we first brought her home...)
and ella played on their new little playset...she had a great time!
it was a intersesting ride home...Cole, ella and I all slept pretty much the whole way home...until my mom and dad stopped at walmart....THATS when ella decided to wake up...and she wasnt happy to find that my parents werent in the car....okay...she was VEry upset...
but come to find out, all she needed was to go potty...and of course we didnt catch the memo...so ella decided to just releive herself right then and there...on Cole's lap...but it wasnt a big deal...
we got her in some new pajamas and drove on home...where we found that our loyal pup Toby had suprised us with a...suprise...
nonetheless here we are...and i am soooo ready to go to bed....
goodnight... and Happy mothers day
thanking God for all my blesssings,
gigi

FINALLY...
So i am FINALLY blogging.... i have had this blog for quite awhile....but have yet to post...
So to start it off...i will tell you what our purpose is for this blog...
'Only one life, twill soon be past, only whats done for Christ will last.'
1. to keep friends, family, and you up to date with Ella and I's lives, showing you pictures and informing you of the big and small events in our lives....
2. to encourage other teens to follow hard after God in every situation, and to share with you our struggles and joys...
3. to let you experience a little part of our generally uneventful lives but in the same way show you how even a teen girl and her two year old sister can make a difference and try to change the world in to a better place for Christ...
5. to make people laugh with our seeminly dry sense of humor...hahaa....
6. to share with you the joy that comes only from having the Lord Jesus Christ as your saviour... not to say that life isnt hard as a Christian...because it is, but to share with you the peace and hope we have in the good times AND the bad....and how he will NEVER leave us....
-and it couldnt be summed up better than with the following mission statement-
Existing to Spread a Passion for the Supremacy of God in ALL things, For the Joy of all Peoples through Jesus Christ.....
that is my purpose, passion, and goal for this blog and for my life....
With all that said...
hopefully i will be able to keep up with this blog...if it is Gods will...it will happen...
"i can do all things through Christ who Strengthens me"
In Christ,
Gigi (and ella)
