Pictures & Award

Hello Everyone, Yes I am still alive! (If you saw Marissa's comment on my sister's last post you will know why I said that.) I am so sorry that I haven't posted in a LONG time...we had a pretty crazy week, so I didn't get on much.

Anyway, Marissa emailed me these pictures, I think we were 11 when they were taken. Enjoy! =)

HELP!

Hey,
Do any of you know how to convert a video to an AVI or MPEG format? It won't let me upload my video unless it is one of those and I don't know how to fix it. HELP!

Video Coming Soon

Hey Ya'll,
We went over to Uncle Jess's house and had a TON of fun! =)
I took over my video camera so we got videos of us playing the Wii! (It is hilarious!) We also video-taped Emily and Sydney (the younger one) doing some "commercials". I am putting a video together of all the acts combined with music in the background, and will post it soon.
Sarah will be posting some pictures of it on her blog. (I think)

Stephanie

New Blog Name (finally)

Hey Everyone!
I am finally changing the name of my blog! =)
Thank you all for taking the poll.
The new name is "Livin' in the South".

P.S. I changed my background again, do ya'll like it?

My Last Post In 2008!

Hey Everyone!

As the Title Says, This is my last post in 2008!

I cannot believe it is almost a 2009! It seems like

yesterday when we began this year and now it's

over! (It's kind of sad, don't you think?)

*

So Many Things Have Happened this year,

but I will only mention a few.

One of the BEST things this year was when my friend

Marissa got to stay with us for 2 weeks! That was so

much fun (especially since we had not seen her in two years).

We went to the Family Conference in Virginia for

the first time in 3 years; I really enjoyed that. I not only

learned a lot but made new friends!

I could mention more things, but it would take too long...

*

Of course there were difficult things this year

(and there will most likely be more in 2009), but overall

I had a wonderful time and I hope you all did too!

*

It is kind of scary going into a new year,

and it is sad that this one is ending. Scary because

we have no idea what 2009 will bring and sad because...

well it just is!

(But why dwell on that since I can't change it, right?)

*

I hope you all have a wonderful New Year!

*

Stephanie

P.S. Sorry about all of the "*".

For some reason when I posted

all my paragraphs were smashing

together so I used those to fix to

fix that. =(
