So I've never done to whole black Friday shopping before until now.hahah!What a crazy atmosphere.If you want to go just to people watch,its quite exciting and funny at the same time.Just watch out or you might get run over.My friend Heather and I went to Michael's first and got some pretty cool art stuff.I got some canvas's on sale other stuff.We went to Target before that and it was madness.Long lines everywhere all the way to the back of the store.We ended up going to Town Center after that and got nothing.I think mostly because there was so many people,the lines were to long and we were pretty tired.I ended up getting my dad a CD and just decided I'd wait on getting my mom some stuff from Bath and Body Works.I've decided to make both my sisters something on a canvas.I'm pretty excited about that.Although I really wish I could find me an elephant stencil.Thats really bumming me out right now.I'm kind of afraid to try the whole "making my own stencil" because I'm afraid I'll mess up.So if any of you know of any cool elephant stencils let me know.I'm wanting to do a safari them with one and a family tree with another.I think I'm going to end up making my parents a piece of art as well.Its so fun to make stuff for other people.Especially when you don't know what to really buy them.I think it matters most when its something you made to give to someone else.I have so much I want to do and feel like so little time to do it.

On another note I've had some of the strangest dreams here lately.It all started with Batman thanking God for his food.Then my friend Judith running the 10k.And the latest one...my car and my dad's truck completely messed up after some random kids lifted the hoods and jacked everything up.Is it the spicy chicken sandwich I've had from Chick-fil-a or all the dressing and squash casserole I made from Thanksgiving.Then again it could be something in the Turkey or this weather.I don't know.But I've had some pretty funny and strange dreams here lately.hahah!I love to dream.=]

Side note I took some Senior pictures for my friend Dylan.I think they turned out alright.Check em out if you like:

Today I've been spending some time with my sister and nephews.They made airplane,heart and dino shaped PB&J sandwhiches for me.Then I had my sis help me with some of my math.Now I'm watching her prepare for Thanksgiving dinner tomorrow.She's so awesome and creative with stuff.I think thats where my creativity comes from some what.She's such an amazing cook also.I love my sister.

This week me and my friend Heather went to Michael's with our crafty selves.We found this awesome stencil book.Its called Stencil 101.They have several ways you can use stencils.

They have so many cool stencils in there.One of my favorites in the book is a picture of wrestling man.It kind of makes me think of Nacho Libre.Its so awesome.My friend and I went to this park and made it look better.hahah!It was so much fun.I went a while back to the same park with Candace and our work is still there.That park was dull anyway.We had to liven it up.I'll post pictures later.

My dad is like Jesus in the physical form.

I love my dad.I'm so glad God blessed me with him.

When I'm down he's there with arms wide open and a shoulder to cry on.He's very wise and gives me great advice to help me along the way.

I picture Jesus like that when we are weary and down trodden.He's there
with arms wide open to love on you no matter what the situation is.He's the reason

we can be at our worst and He'll still take us in.I love our Heavenly Father more than this world,the people in it and life itself.He's worth living for.
