Psalm 8:2-4: When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have set in place, What is mankind that you are mindful of them, human beings that you care for them? ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆ Psalm 147:4-5: He determines the number of the stars and calls them each by name. Great is our Lord and mighty in power; his understanding has no limit.

Finalmente!!
Ha sido mucha tiempo que he escrito algo en espanol.
En mayo, tome el examen AP para espanol. Recientemente, recibi mi nota!! Saque un "3".
Esta nota no es fantastica, pero estoy contenta y satisfecha con mi nota. Gracias, Senor Padre, por la gracia en el dia de examen!
Tengo muchas cosas que quiero decir, pero son las diez y cuarto ahora, y tengo mucho sueno.
Espero seguir escribiendo en espanol en mi blog en el futuro. No quiero perder todo el espanol que he aprendido este ano :P
La semana que viene estara MUY ocupada. Estare tomando mis gallinas a la (ay de mi!.. en ingles, la palabra es "fair").
Me hace falta mi amiga "KLOVE". Ella esta en un viaje de missioneros. Que vuelvas muy pronto, amiga!
Hoy, mi padre me compro helado y [papas fritas]. Que delicioso!! Me ENCANTA el helado.
Estoy un poco preocupada del otono.. no he decidido lo que voy a hacer para escuela. Es muy complicado... Padre Dios, que nos de sabiduria!
Y ahora, concluire con un versiculo:
Buenas noches!

Nueva Versión Internacional (NVI)
33 Más bien, busquen primeramente el reino de Dios y su justicia, y todas estas cosas les serán añadidas. 34 Por lo tanto, no se angustien por el mañana, el cual tendrá sus propios afanes. Cada día tiene ya sus problemas.
Buenas noches!

Oatmeal Smoothie
I had heard of these before, but didn't try making one till today!
1/4 cup dry, ground oatmeal
fruit juice
protein powder
1 small frozen banana
frozen strawberries
chia seed soaked in coconut water
milk
...and I think that's everything I used.
I blended the oatmeal&protein powder with a little juice first, and then added the other stuff and blended again.
It's SO GOOD!
You'd hardly know the oatmeal is in it!
This is where I got the recipe for it: http://allrecipes.com/recipe/strawberry-oatmeal-breakfast-smoothie/detail.aspx?event8=1&prop24=SR_Title&e11=oatmeal%20smoothie&e8=Quick%20Search&event10=1&e7=Home%20Page
Except I didn't really follow that recipe much cuz I wanted to use other ingredients instead.
But you can if you like! And LMK how your oatmeal smoothie turns out!
What I find so cool about this is that, normally, if you eat a smoothie for a meal, you're hungry again in a little while.
But oatmeal smoothies should (in theory) stick with you longer.
Also, adding protein powder should add to the filling factor.
Hope you're enjoying your summer!
Keep cool and GO MAKE A SMOOTHIE! ;D
Sinceramente,

Milkshake Madness
I like ice cream.
It's as simple as that.
And on hot summer days like the ones we've been having, who isn't craving ice cream??
So many delicious flavors and combinations, which one is best???
Birthday cake?
Cookie dough?
Mint choco-chip?
Butter pecan?
Neopolitan?
Banana split?
Root beer float?
Or how about good 'ol vanilla?
Is your mouth watering yet? ;)
Well, I don't really have a favorite, I just like ice cream. (^.^)
So today, I decided to try making my own version of this [Steak&Shake] milkshake:
I can be rather impulsive when it comes to cooking.
I should learn that it would help to plan before I start.
Oh well...

So although this concoction is technically a "Chocolate covered Strawberry milkshake"
It should more rightly be called: Strawberry Smoothie with Brownie Pieces.
Still tasted great!!- just not what I was aiming for. (>.<)
Maybe some restaurant will see my blog post, start selling these and make millions!
Any McDonalds smoothie developers out there????
Tehe.
Hope you are all enjoying your summer!
Keep cool!

I first whipped up a hot fudge sauce on the stove.
Unfortunately, I overcooked it (or something?) and it turned into more of a crumbly brownie.

Next I got out the vanilla "ice cream"...
Ice cream is in quotes cuz I actually used frozen yogurt. Less fat, same taste. Why not?

Dumped in the semi-frozen strawberries, milk, and "ice cream".

Blended.

Topped with "fudge". Voila!

Smorgasbord de Julio
Happy Independence Day week!
July has been busy for me so far (and yes, I know it's only the 3rd day in July x).
And I haven't been doing much blogging, but I thought I'd do a smorgasbord post today.
This might be weird, but I tend to overbook myself. I guess cuz I like being busy! So when it comes to a week when there are lots of opportunities to go places, it gets really busy because I try to do as much as I possibly can x)
The plan for this week was/is(Lord willing) :
Sunday: volley ball at some nearby sand courts. It was hot, but still fun! I played front for a few games and really enjoyed it!
Later that day we caught up with some good 'ol friends.
Yesterday: house cleaning, a french horn audition practice, and a music practice for July 4th!
Today: babysitting and later a parade and then fireworks!
Tomorrow: another parade, followed by a picnic and MORE fireworks!!
Independence day is always so much fun!
I enjoy these weird summer holidays that feel like weekends but aren't.

Yesterday I made m'm cookies. The AC was on and the oven was on. I guess you could call it counter-productive. But the cookies were/are good! :)

Dad was heating up some turkey bacon for BLT's today- delish!
.JPG)
In keeping with tradition, I painted my nails. Woopeee! (photog=Em)
.JPG)
The field is looking rather parched, as it tends to during the hot weeks of July and August.
.JPG)
We're replacing our old closet doors. As a result, most my closet is in a heap on the floor :P
An important food staple in July is WATERMELON!! :D
.JPG)
Busy evening, busy tomorrow, busy week.
CRAZY CRAZY!
As you celebrate Indepence Day this week, think about all the fun/special things you are doing, and thank God for the freedom to do them!
We have been so blessed with so many freedoms. Don't take it forgranted!
I'll be posting again soon, hopefully!
Hasta luego!
