I am sooooo excited for tomorrow. I leave for Delta Lake. It is a christian bible camp in Rome,NY. I went last year. At first I was kind of scared because it was my 1st year. I had a friend with me but still. At the end of the week, I cried because I didn't want to leave.  Now I really can't wait. I also got 2 of my other friends to come with me. Now I have 4 other friends coming with me. It is all week long. I CANNOT wait until tomorrow!


          I just want to say Happy Late Birthday Grandma Gates!

I was modeling all the fashion things from our yard sale a few weeks ago. look in the middle of the glasses. 10 cents sticker.

This is my friend and I at Onondaga Lake Park on Tuesday.

what is fourth of july?

Tomorrow is The Forth Of July! To some people, The Fourth Of July is an important day, to others it is just a day to barbecue, watch fireworks, and see friends. To me, that is an important day. It is the day we gained freedom from England. We then got our independence. Therefore the term, Independence Day. It is not just the day the Declaration of Independence was signed. To me, that day is even more than that. To me it recognizes the people who fought in that war, died or did not die, they still fought hard, that is why we are here today, that is why I am writing this post, that is what lets us be who and where we are, that is what The Fourth Of July is!


                            Freedom is not free, is it?

Hi everyone, YEAH, it is finally summer! I have a lot to do! Well I got out of school the 23rd of June! At first I was spending a lot of time with my brother, he is finally home! I still spend time with him just not as much. Next week my parents and I are going on vacation. I don't even know where though. I don't even know if they know. There is a possibility of us going to a friends camp. They have been trying to get us down there for a while, then they moved to Virginia, but they still have a camp down here. It is the people that we went to visit on spring break. Then the week after that, I am going to Delta Lake! I can't wait! Delta Lake is a lot of fun. I got a hold of my friend that was in my cabin. She lives in Albany. You can request up to 2 people on your sign up sheet. I had already requested 2 people that I know from church. So when I talked to her, she had not requested anyone! So she requested me and Carolyn! So that makes it a lot more exciting! The week after that I have vbs, vacation bible school. I don't really know if I am going to be in a group, I know there is at least 1 thing I am helping with so I don't know if I can be in a group. I really don't know yet. Sometime my brother is supposed to be taking me fishing and to a shooting range. I guess he shoots his hunting gun. I would do archery though. I got into archery last year at camp. My sister should be home from Itally the first week of August. I really can't wait to see her. She got me 2 necklaces. In Itally they believe that turtles bring good luck so everyone has like a turtle necklace of some kind of jewlery. Adults usually wear gold or silver. Kids wear all kinds of colors. She got me a purple one and a baby gold one! This summer should be great!
