I tried lots of topping to see what I liked. My favorite, of course, being peanut butter. Brown sugar, … [Read more...] about Sweet Potato Saturday

OOTD and Getting Judged (PI DAY!)

An Unexpected Turn of Events
I was pleasantly surprised to wake up this morning to a snow day! I'm not even sure why - we didn't even get that much snow last night. The day has been spent in town with my mom.

On the Path to Success!
The tournament is looking good for us! We won both games today and beat our rivals! We haven't beat them since fifth grade so it was a big deal.

Thankful Thursday!
I have so much to be thankful for. I need to remember that when I'm letting some small thing get in the way of my life. Here's something for everyone to try: think of something bad that happened, and see if something good came out of it. My example: If I wouldn't have started gaining weight, then I … [Read more...] about Thankful Thursday!
