Summer is coming so fast I can't believe. I would just like to say to whoever decides to take the time and read this, you mean the world to me and I love you very much. I'm so thankful for all the people in my life. God has truely blessed me with so many amazing friends. This summer I hope I can still stay in contact with them because I'd miss them too much if I never got to see them anymore. Even though a lot of my friends won't be going to school with me anymore, they will still be just as important to me and I hope that God always keeps us together.
Summer is coming. 3 1/2 more school days until I'm officially a freshman!!!

XOXO ~Natalie

Have a wonderful last week before summer!

Life is Good (:

So this year is almost over and I can't believe that. I'm honestly gonna miss it. I'm gonna miss the good times and the bad. I have so many amazing people in my life it sometimes just seems like a dream. Most of them are in these pictures, but about 10 probably aren't. I don't know what I'd do without my friends and I'm so thankful for all the times I get to spend with them. God puts friends in our lifes to lift us up when we're down and to support us when we're up. I'm so thankful God gave me amazing friends! I love you guys!

Strength in the Beauty

So I haven't blogged in a while...sorry. I've been so busy with life just like usual. But anyway, right now I think it's time to talk about this weather of Spring. Spring is finally here, even if the sun sometimes is not. And I find that even when it's raining, hailing, windy, or just a nice sunny day, God still puts beauty in it. This beauty gives me some strength some what. When I'm down, sometimes just going outside and enjoying any type of weather is a perfect "pick me up". Last night there was a beautiful sunset and I just went outside on the porch in my pajamas and watched it. The air was peaceful and it was quiet. And with that silence, I had a chance to enjoy God speaking to me through the beauty and silence of that sunset. What a blessing that was to me. Now I feel some what revived like I can finish up these next few weeks of school the best I can. Ignoring the drama. Enjoying the smiles, laughter, and just being with the people I love. Gotta remember the good memories and times rather than just the bad ones.

Anyway to end this thought. I love God. I love this weather. I love my friends. Can't wait for summer, but for now, I'm happy with the spring.
Love, Natalie
