With my soul

Well, I did it! I got my second tattoo. I encourage you to visit my other blog (Click this link --->) Lessons I Learned in 2013 and read the entry about this specific tattoo after you see the picture, because it explains it full detail of why I got this tattoo, why I got it where I did, and what I believe about tattoos in this day and age. And since this blog is specifically for pictures, I didn't want to bore you with a super duper long post. ;) So without further ado, here is my second tattoo! (Hey, I rhymed without even meaning to! Wait, I did it again!) Haha, love you guys!

Willie Robertson Hardcastle!

Willie has grown up so much since the last time you've seen him! He looks like he should be put on a calender or something. :)

Family Bible Fest!

So this year, my church put a little twist on VBS. We called it Family Bible Fest, and instead of just having the kids come, the whole family participates! There were different stations and it went so incredibly well. I really wish more people would have come, but it was a great experience. I was asked to be the photographer for the day and then make the ministry moment video for the Sunday after. Here's the Ministry Moment video and then the different stations the families would visit!

The Centurions and the Tax Collector!

Peter, James and John!

Evan the song leader ;D

The parent's room!

The Jewish Celebration!

Peter's house!

The Synagogue!

The great storm of 2013!

So this past Monday, we had probably the biggest storm in the history of Abilene!! Okay, not really but we had like 70 mph winds and it was crazy! My whole street was flooded and the water went almost up to my knees! I got some good pictures though!

Gabby Smith's Senior Announcements!

Gabby Smith is a Senior at ACHS! She asked me to design her announcements!

Good luck in college, Gabby! You have always been a sweet friend to me, and have always been an encouragement! Keep that sweet smile on your face! Love you girl!

SAMLK2K13!

So  a few weeks ago, me and my friends took a trip to San Angelo for a day. Why, you ask? Because we could! We left in the morning and ate at a restaurant called Fuentes Cafe, and then we walked around downtown near the restaurant and took some pretty fun pictures! We found some neat alley ways that had really cool graffiti. After we took pictures, we went thrift shopping! It was SO fun. I bought a cute new purse and we just had fun looking around. It was such a fun day and I was so happy to be a part of it! And if you're wondering what the title means, it's "San Angelo, Martin Luther King, 2013". (I don't know why it's taken so long to actually upload the pictures to the blog, well, I've just been really busy the past few weeks).

2013, a year of new...hospital rooms.

Well, 2012 wouldn't have exactly won the "Best Year of the Year Award" (If that even made sense). So as 2013 approached, I was determined to make it the best (or at least better) year! Well, unfortunately, that failed pretty fast. It took 26 days to be exact. I started feeling bad and then Sunday night, it all went downhill from there. I couldn't really go to the hospital because of all the flu viruses going around, and they weren't accepting anything but extremely serious cases. But I screamed and pleaded for them to take me to the ER, and we went. It only could have been by God's doing that we got into a room so fast because they were jam packed, there were NO seats left in the ER. But I ended up staying a week, and having surgery, and couldn't stand it anymore. It was a really rough week and it felt like it was never going to end, but these people got me through it...
