My Mommy

Dear Mommy....

I love you!!!  Happy Birthday!!! I hope you have the best day ever, especially since you're 8 1/2 inches smaller! ;D  You are amazing.

You're my inspiration, you make me want to be an as-good-as-you-are mom someday.  You make me excited about Homeschooling, and you fangirl with me!! :D

Thank you for everything you do.  Thank you for being absolutely hilarious, for putting up with Glo and I, for teaching us everything and for being so cool!!!  Thank you for loving my friends, and defending them when necessary....;)

Mommy, you never let me down, and you're always there for me.  You've helped me to form my own opinions and you've helped to shape my worldview, keeping in mind that He is always watching.  ;)  You've helped me to become wise and make smart decisions in my young age, and I am forever grateful for you letting me be my own person and helping me to be independent. :)  You are awesome!!

Star Wars has brought us together....ever since you've entered the realm of awesome fangirliness, we've bonded and gotten closer.  I love it.  It's so much fun!!!  You even have internet friends, whether you deny it or not! ;)
I've helped you through your first fangirl heartbreak (trust me,  now that you read fanfiction there are many MANY more to follow) and you put up with my daily fangirl attacks.  ;)

I hope you have the best day ever Mom.  I love you so much, and I am so proud, honored, and blessed to call you my mommy.  ;D

Have the happiest birthday ever, I can't wait for this weekend,

Love,
Your Baby <3

Happy Birthday Daddy!!!

Happy Birthday Daddy!

Dear Daddy…

I love you so much!!!  You mean everything to me, you’re such an incredible person and I am lucky to call you my father. ;)  Happy birthday to the most amazing man I know!

Things I love about you:

Everything!!

Specifics:

Your advice.  You help me reason with my sometimes hormonal teenage emotions.

Your understanding.  You really care about how I feel, and help me to feel better.

Your sense of style.  Most men/boys/guys don’t like to shop, but you know my style and what I like better than anybody!! ;)

Your sense of humor.  Albeit slightly inappropriate, you’re hilarious, and our Friday nights are NEVER dull. :D

Your skills in the kitchen.  I don’t trust Mommy in there.  I’m glad you are such a fantastic cook/baker, because we’d starve without you. ;) (just kidding mom, I know cooking isn’t your thing. ;D)

Being shopping buddies with you.  I love to go to the store with you.  You are easily my best friend (not counting people my age…lol).  I love to spend time with you, just having some quality daddy-daughter time. 

Talking the talk we never talk.  Every Monday, you and me, orchestra time.  I treasure those times when we get to go out to dinner and sometimes shop and just talk.  I tell you all kinds of things, and you listen and care about them!!

The Three S’s. Slurpees, Sushi, and Stupidity.  After dance class, this is the sure-fire way to make me feel better.  Buy me sushi, a slurpee, and help me get over their stupidity. ;)  The Three S’s.  Get it?

Your stories.  Even though your childhood makes me want to cry……/depressing/…….I love to hear your stories, especially the more hilarious ones. ;D

You and Mommy.  You both make me laugh…Han and Leia…and I love everything about you too.  Daddy, you and mommy are amazing together, you make a great team. ;)  BTW, Bob at Riverside still scares me, but I’m glad you two connected with him.  XD

Trips and Outings with you.  Disney, the Keys, Sanibel, Sarasota, wherever we go, the fun follows.  Thank you for driving all those hours and always making the trips awesome.  I can’t wait for one this weekend!!!!

In conclusion, Daddy, you rock my world.  J  I love you, and don’t know what I’d do without you.  Thank you for EVERYTHING.  You’re appreciated, you’re loved, and it’s your birthday, so enjoy some cake.  <3

Happy 45^th Daddy,

Love,

Your Pumpkin Seed. <3

Happy Birthday To Me!

My birthday is today....
So far I've gotten Birthday Greetings at least ten times from Cad Bane's Chick, and messages from Endor, Leia, ALLLLLL the Lakehouse sisters, presents from JediKnightGrl and Rex'sgirl, and my family and friends too.  ;)

(those were all sent to my by CBC)  ;)

First off, thank you all SO MUCH for the birthday 'presents' and messages.  ;)  I love you all!!!!!!

Now, I shall share with you all my party, which took place last night.  ;)

First off, my HAIR.  <33333  I got my hair done up all special.  XD  It was a birthday present.  ;)  We shall discuss the process.....
I got my hair cut and colored, with red-copper highlights!!!!  :D

BEFORE 

Just getting started..... 

Coffee!!!!!!!!! 

Just after the hair-washing lady finished with me... 

AFTER!!!!!!  :D  Isn't it gorgeous?  xD  

My Daddy straightened my hair last night, so I could look 'hot' for Orchestra tonight.  XD

Well, that was part of my present.  ;)  On Saturday we began celebrating.  Chibi came over and we got my hair done.  But before that, we went shopping at the 'big' mall in town.  We went to Books-A-Million (I got the Dark Nest Trilogy Star Wars books....) and we went to Toys-R-Us, and also to Rainforest Cafe for lunch.  ;)  I got a free desert and sung to.  XD

At Toys-R-Us I got two action figures. ;)  Season 3 Ahsoka, and Hevy the clone trooper.  ;)

  

Oh my lovely finger in that picture.....XD  My dad did the landscaping....LOL!

Now it's party time. ;)  Last night my grandparents, cousin (Chibi), mom and dad and sister (obviously) and great-grandpa came over for dinner!  :)

My 'party room'.  Chibi and I did the decorations.  ;) It's Wicked themed!!!!!!!

Yay for Black, White, Pink and Green!!!!!  XD  It was really fun, we LOVED doing the decorations, and only were injured a few times.  XD

Now, onto the presents (which I really want to share, so don't think I'm bragging please!  ;) )

Me opening the Vera Bradley stuff from my grandma and grandpa. ;)

That's my Mara Jade Purse.....it will go with the Visions of the Future costume I will be making for Celebration 6.  ;) 

Closeup of my new purse from my grandma.  ;)  It's titled "Safari Sunset".  :D

The laptop case that I got......it also comes with a little cosmetic bag type thing for cords and such (at least that's what I'll use that for. ;) )

Chibi made me this lovely keepsake box....and the sides are decorated beautifully, but for personal reasons I can't post pics of it.  D:  But the top is gorgeous too, huh?  

New book!!!  Grandma gave me the book Emma by Jane Austen for my birthday!!!  SO EXCITED to read this one!!!!!  :D  

 These we just got today.  ;)  My mom got Traitor for herself, and I got the third book in the Dark Nest Trilogy.  ;)  (if you remember, I got one and two on Saturday).  :D

One more present and this post will be /almost/ complete.......
Mara Jade.  my sister got me a Mara Jade Barbie doll for my birthday.  ;)  But she accidentally slipped and told me two days before my party and spent hours crying because she ruined the surprise.  :P  So I got it early!!!!  :D

What?  WHAT???  So I can't be excited over my Mara Jade Barbie and take a thousand and one pictures of her outside and inside and in different outfits????  Fine.  *pouts*  many of these will reappear on DeviantART btw.  ;)

Now I am getting ready to go to Orchestra and have a fun birthday dinner with my Daddy.  ;)
Love you all, and thanks again!!!!!!!!  *hugs*

P.S.  I've got some EPIC posts in the works....so stay tuned!!!!!!  :DDDDD

Pirate Ships and Birthdays

Wow.  I haven't posted in a few days!  xD  I've been busy though.  Very busy...

Birthdays...........
Today is my Momma's birthday!!!!!!!!!!!  HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOMMY!!!!!!!  :)  Wish her a happy birthday either here, or on her blog.  ;)  We had a very nice birthday breakfast, and I got her a pretty necklace that says "God's Love Endures Forever".  ;) I love my Momma!  ;)  Hope you had the best birthday ever Mom!!!  :D

Pirate Ships.........
Right now I'm sitting in our Shipwreck.  My mom set up a bunch of sheets and curtains to create a 'tent' in our living room.  ;)  It turned out more like a shipwreck with ton of hanging sheets and all our pillows set up.  It's very comfortable and cute, and it makes me feel like a little kid again.  ;)  And now we're watching Loony Tunes as a family.  :D  I love this. 

Okay, now for just a few update sort of things. 

First of all, I think I'm going to try and get some sort of schedule like Qui and Amaranthine have.  I need to come up with something though.  I'll let y'all know.  ;) 

I'm going to update my FanFic page right now.  I know that Endor uses my page (she loves me for it) and I also know that a few girls on Lakehouse have been using it too.  ;)  I'm SOOO addicted to Fanfic.  It's so.....amazing.  I love writing it almost as much as I love reading it.  ;)

I saw Disney on Ice!!!!  It was fantastic!!  I'm working on a post for it.  It was so colorful and really fun!!!!!!!  My favorite part was the Valentine's Day part, the Lilo and Stitch part, and the Princess Tiana/Mardi Gras part.  It was a great show.  :D 

I'll write more later.  I've got a ton of posts planned.  Some of them include:
A review of How To Train Your Dragon
A post on Disney On Ice
A post on Homeschooling and the funny things that happen in everyday life
A post on the importance of Fanfiction.net, and why fandom is good for the soul
:)  That's it I think.  ;)

Okay, I'll post more later!!!!  :D  This post was short.  xD  Here's some music that I'm in love with right now!  ;)

I just bought these on iTunes.  Now I've got 52 cents left on my account.  XD

Love,
Jedi~Chick <3333
