Puzzles and Olympics

Today I received a package from my sister Bre which was full of lovely things. It was a sorta Christmas in July package. She returned a few things she had borrowed from me in June, and gave me a dress she got for really cheap. It's a cute green summer dress that I can't wait to wear!

Interruption: I'm currently watching the opening of the Olympics! There's a bunch of kids singing... it's kind of interesting. I don't remember much of any other Olympics so I don't have anything to compare it too. But it's cool I guess and some guy just quoted Shakespeare. Woo! haha

Back to my package... Bre sent me a couple books, one of which she told me to read a while ago and has been sitting on my book list since. It's called Bittersweet and talks about God's grace and how changes can be good. I've only read a few pages but I think I'm going to like it. She also sent me two CDs that are really cool as well. That girl knows what I like.

Mom and I did a fall puzzle today outside on the table on the back porch.

Once again interruption... this blog has been sitting open forever. Mom and I were watching the whole opening ceremony. I thought it was pretty cool. I liked that they incorporated all the history and what not. O and that guy in the top hat that I believe quoted Shakespeare(I think it's the same person) looked really familiar so I looked him up. Turns out he played Gilderoy Lockhart in Harry Potter! Small world.

Anyway Mom and I worked on the 500 piece puzzle and finished it in a few hours. After we finished I decided to take a nap, which was once again needed. I woke up and mom and dad were skyping with Colie. I was half asleep so I didn't say much but it was fun seeing her. Daddy made some really yummy soup for dinner full of lots of veggies. Mom and I played cards for a while after that. Then I went for a run again! Ran to the park, took a five or so minute break, ran back home until I got to my street and walked most of the way back. I got home around 7:30 just in time to watch the Olympics start.

So this isn't a very interesting blog. Sorry it's all over the place but the Olympics are a bit distracting. Haha

Some more pictures from the day

Blehhh

Finished!

We did it!
