Snow Day

Now THIS is a post I never thought I'd be writing in November.

Today it snowed! A lot! A least three inches, enough to cover the grass. There's talk of sledding later, if it's sticky enough. There's also talk of snowman-building... :)



 This is a LOT of snow for November.

NaNoWriMo

NANOWRIMO STARTS TODAY! YAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!! I'm writing a story about a knight and a dragon.

It also snowed for the first time here! It didn't stick, but it's still cool. (by that I mean interesting AND cold.)

More Life

I've been real busy of late...

So, Rosy-posy (our nickname for Rose) is adorable. ^ ^ She smiles and giggles and loves watching games and videos.

Lately us kids have been filming a sort of TV show (it's not on TV, we just call it that.) called Agent X. Isaac plays Agent X, Naomi is the antagonist, Naki, Miriam's role is jumping around from character to character, Angela is a minion and one of Agent X's superiors, and Joseph is a minion and the other superior. If I know you, you can ask me to email one or more of the episodes to you. They're pretty funny. :D

NANOWRIMO IS COMING SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON!

In 13 days, I'm going to a costume party at AHG(American Heritage Girls)! This is the second costume party I will have gone to in my life, the first being last year's AHG costume party.

Um... we're having chicken for dinner! (RANDOM)

Peace out, folks!

Life

It's been a while since I posted...

So, Rose is doing great. She's really cute, and likes swinging in the little baby swing. :)

Daniel and Sarah are nuttier than ever. Daniel's favorite activity is dumping water on the floor, and Sarah's is hitting him whenever he doesn't do her bidding.

My friends, Hannah and Bethanne, auditioned for the Fueled and Aflame dance group, and were accepted! I'm so excited for them. :D

My blog got a new background! I'm still deciding on the one I want, so expect it to change quite a bit in the next few days.

Peace out!

New blog name

So, I was thinking. Why is my blog called the Awesome Sapphire Blog? It's supposed to be about her, but it's mostly about me. If anyone has an idea for a new name, please tell me in the comments!

Also, for no reason at all, I will talk like a fish for the rest of the month.

Rose

My little sister was born yesterday! Her name is Rose Hosanna Kendig, and those are pictures of her below.

Life

My Custom Plush came today! Here's a picture of her compared to my Shadow the Hedgehog plush -->
She's staring at him... XD
Here is the picture I sent them.
 
She is about 10 inches tall and has a large plastic gem in her forehead. She didn't come with clothes, the dress she's wearing was sewn by my dear sister Naomi. :)
 
My little unborn sister (dubbed "Princess Aleena" by Sarah, for reasons I cannot fathom) will be born in EXACTLY TEN DAYS! Well, if everything goes according to plan. She might be born earlier.
 
My birthday is a week after that! I'm so excited. :D

Our Pool

This
Is our pool.
 
Well, it's more than that. It's us kids getting into the pool as our Dad takes a video of us. On the 24th, Daniel's birthday, we started opening the pool, which means that we started up the pump and took off the heavy winter cover. YAY! ^ ^ Our first swim was on the 26th... or 27th. I don't remember <XD It was 64 degrees Fahrenheit, and IT WAS COLD! >.< We had fun, though. we swam again once yesterday and again today. Today it was warm! ^ ^
 
I shall write again when I remember. Peace out!

Stuff

I've been wanting to write multiple posts lately, but I never got around to it, so I'll just smush them all into one big post.

First of all, Sunny. Sunny, my favorite cat, was hit my a car waaaaay back in January. I haven't written about him yet because previously think about him only makes me cry. He was only a kitten, and I really miss him. :( Here are some pictures of him as a kitten.

That's me --}


 And here are some more recent pictures.




He's so cute, huh? <:'(

Alright, on to less morbid stuff. Today is Daniel's 2nd birthday! YAY! ^ ^ (In case you forgot, Daniel's my youngest brother) I don't think he knows it though. He's currently sitting on my lap watching a video. XD

Um... in other news... oh yeah! Last Saturday, Dad, Naomi, Angela, Miriam and I all went to an AHG family camp! We didn't actually do any camping though. We only stayed until lunch, then Dad said we had to go home because bad weather was on its way. I was really grumpy on the way home, because I didn't mind bad weather. After a while I decided maybe God caused us to go home because something bad was going to happen, like a tornado was going hit. I dismissed that thought the next day, however, because there were no reports on tornados or earthquakes or anything... until a few days later. Then my Dad got an Email saying that it had been confirmed that one of  the girls who went to camp had head lice. EW. Also, apparently, after we left, the girls had all played a game where they put handkerchiefs on their heads (which were shared). BUT, since we all left, none of us got head lice! :D Thanks, God!

So... yeah. I think that's all, sho, bye!

Life

Life...

Um, lessee.

 Last Sunday, us older 4 girls went to the AHG (American Heritage Girls, in case you didn't know) Fashion Show that Naomi and I organized. Naomi and I were on the stage the time, reading the descriptions of the outfits, and boy was I nervous! I didn't mess up though, and it wasn't as bad as I thought. :D

Speaking of AHG, here's come pictures I drew for an art auction!




Ta-daaa! I drew the outlines by hand (see first pictures) and then scanned them into the computer and colored and shaded them. I didn't shade most of Shadow, though, since he's black.
I've been wanting to buy this Sonic Comic that was supposed to come out in February, but it still hasn't come out. -_- Darn it. It's new release date is May 27th, but somehow I doubt that. I wonder what's wrong with Archie comics?

I never did mention that MY MOM IS PREGNANT! :D :D :D :D :D The baby's a girl, she doesn't have a name yet, and she's doing fine. ^ ^


That's all, so, peace out, dudes!

Easter

HAPPY EASTER!!!!!

So lately I've been thinking... about the origins of some Easter traditions, like, why on earth is there an Easter bunny who hides eggs? Why do we hide and search for eggs on Easter anyway? If anyone knows how these traditions got started, can they let me know? 

Friday, March 28, 2014

Just curious...

Does anyone other then my family actually read this blog? If so, please comment and let me know!

Naomi's blog

Just today, I realized that I have been updating my blog way more often than Naomi, who used to complain about how I never posted. *high fives myself*

Tuesday, March 4, 2014

Life

So... life. :)

Last month, our monthly P.E.A.C.H. skates were canceled. -_- Fortunately, the same month a friend of ours arranged a homeschoolers day at a nearby rec center so we can go ICE skating. :)

More good news, my friend Ameera, who was gone for a little over a month as she moved, finally returned and Naomi and I  are chatting with her regularly again. :D

Sonic 06, as mentioned in my previous post, was a HUGE hit with my family (except Naomi). It's all anyone ever plays or talks about. Even my brother  Isaac, who is usually very picky about the games he plays, loves this one.

My little brother Daniel, has also changed. He is now a climbing machine, and it's a miracle that he hasn't gotten seriously hurt yet. :)

So yeah, that's what's been happening. Peace out dudes! Don't forget to feed the animoids! ^ ^

Sonic the Hedgehog 2006 review

Last Thursday I got a game I have been wanting for so long, SONIC THE HEDGEHOG 2006! I didn't post until now because I was having too much fun playing it.

Almost everyone I meet says this is the worst game ever, but I cannot imagine why anyone would give this game a bad review. It is practically the best game I have played in my ENTIRE LIFE!
Now I know that I'm not a professional reviewer. I mostly judge games by plot, and not by gameplay. My sister Naomi hates Elise(resident princess), so she doesn't play the game. She says the rest of the game is boring.

Needless to say, I don't agree. ^ ^

I give this game 5,000,000 stars out of 100! (That should prove my point)

The Theory of Evolution

As a strong Christian, I believe that evolution is wrong.
In fact, I believe that it makes no sense whatsoever.
The facts that prove this I will post below.

#1 The fossil record.
See the diagram.

The fossil record SHOULD look like a tree, animals evolving and multiplying again and again. But it doesn't. What it shows is a few bugs micro-evolving into a few different forms and then BOOM! Suddenly the record overflows with fossils of animals of all kinds. That is proof that evolution is wrong. If you're still not convinced, read on.

#2 The impossibility.

Think of a watch. A really old watch like in old movies. Take the imaginary watch completely apart and put all the parts in a box. Shake it for 5 billion years. If you open the box, will the watch be put together AND ticking?

Pretty impossible, right?

The universe is billions of times more complex than an old watch, and according to evolutionists, it all happened by chance. Like someone put all the pieces in a box and shook it for 5 billion years. The chance that that could have happened is one in 5,000,000 X four hundred googleplex. Another reason why evolution can't work.

#3 The time

According to evolutionists, everything evolved from single-cell organisms over a period of billions of years. According to a very smart Christian scientist, that is way too short a time for the complexity of life today to evolve! Another reason why it can't work.

#4 The rate of evolution

If evolution is true, (which it isn't) than everything should have evolved the same time. Which it shouldn't! If everything evolved, there's no way it could have all happened at once. If it's true, then some of the animals today should be half lion and half dog or something like that. I'm not sure if this is really relevant, it's just something my brother and I were discussing.

I don't blame today's generation for being mostly evolutionists, just so everyone knows, so I hope no one yells at me for hating them.

I hope everyone who reads this post seriously considers asking Jesus into their hearts.

Peace out y'all!

Three of my siblings had birthday recently, and I'm still trying to get used to the fact that my darling sister Naomi is 14. :D She should write about it on her blog one of these days.

I think that's all. Until next post!
