Linking up!

Hey girls and guys!
I was reading over at Lynnette Kraft's blog (click here) about an awesome idea she had to connect and encourage Christian ladies (sorry guys!) through blogs. So, without further ado, here is my contribution!

10 Charming, Wonderful and Interesting things about ME!

1. I love books - any type of books. Short, fat, long, big, pictures, lots of words, hundreds of pages, or chunky board books. I love 'em!

2. If I am sad, I will cry. If I am happy, I will cry. If I am really confused and don't know if I am happy or sad, I will cry.

3. My favourite time of year is spring time - my birthday season and MANGO season! (I <3 mango...)

4. My all time favourite movie is... The Sound of Music.

5. If I could do only one thing with my life, it would be LOVE OTHERS. I wanna be a mum and just love on people and show them how much God loves them.

6. I can't remember the last full-priced, brand-new item of clothing that I bought... it might have been some underwear... (I'm a op-shopper!)

7. If there is one thing that I really don't like - it would have to be butcher's shops. They smell REALLY bad, and there are like bits of dead animal everwhere... ewwww....

8. I have only ever left my home country once. (FYI, I live in Australia, and went to Fiji, for a missions trip, last year.)

9. I would love to marry someone with an accent... one day! Probably not soon, as 16 is a little young in my parent's books, but hey! Soon...

10. I love love love love love love love love love love love love love love GOD! :)

SOO!! Please remember to check out Lynnette's blog (here) and join in the linky, get-to-know-you fun!
God bless you beautiful people!

This whole button thing...

Hey all!

Well, as some of you would know, I made myself a button (scroll down... it's in the sidebar) and THEN I realized that it was too BIG! So I made another one which is smaller :) and will fit into your sidebar!
SOOOO, apologies go out to Emii, Libby and Miss Raquel who had already put up the button... you'll need to change it!

And, if you would like to know how to make a button, here is the link to the tutorial I followed.

God bless you all!

I like to talk about random things in life...

Today's random topic is...
FRIENDS.
Okay, I guess it's not so random. (though my friends often are... gotta love 'em!)
This post is going to have 3 parts - Part 1 - Things I love about my girl friends.
Part 2 - Things I love about my guy friends.
Part 3 - Things I love about being a friend.
So, without further ado...
THINGS I LOVE ABOUT MY GIRL FRIENDS
1. They are good for laughing with.
2. They are good for crying with.
3. They are good for talking to, yelling at, and dishing out dark secrets to.
4. I can call them, and they will talk - even if they have only 5 minutes, they will focus on chatting for that five and then go on with whatever else they have to do.
5. They can fix things with a hug and a smile.
6. Who else would I turn to for fashion advice?!?!
7. I'm SO not going to trust my hair and make-up to a guy... :) but my gals are welcome to make me over.
8. Sleepovers - it would be creepy with guys, so :) yay for us girls!
9. Giggling together while swinging at the park... good times!
10. They love me for who I am right now.
11. They love God first - over everything.
THINGS I LOVE ABOUT MY GUY FRIENDS
1. They are FUN-NY as anything.
2. They play sports with me - even though I suck at anything even remotely like exercise.
3. They don't really care if my sock colour doesn't match my underwear. (or outerwear, for that matter.)
4. They can get away with doing totally gross stuff - all we girls do is GIGGLE!
5. I know that if I ever need a big brother to cry on, they will just sit there and let me cry, not try to fix my whole world with big long fancy words.
6. They are passionate about life.
7. Did I mention they are REALLY funny?
8. They love God.
9. And they are just super fabulous and awesome and cool.
THINGS I LOVE ABOUT BEING A FRIEND
1. I get to have fun.
2. I can be myself.
3. I can show someone else how much God loves them and how awesome they are just being themselves!
4. There is always someone to talk to or listen to.
5. There is always someone to eat chocolate with.
6. I can grow when I listen to their inspiring stories.
7. We are so close that they can tell me that my breath stinks and I won't be offended.
8. If I need something - they are there for me, and if they need something - I am there for them, no matter what.

So, what are you waiting for? Get out there and tell a friend how awesome they are!
God bless you all!

Hey Hannah!

Heya Hannah,

I got the butterfly up there cause I had a blog makeover and it was a part of the makeover... I'm not sure how it's done exactly, but maybe if you see Angie, who did my makeover, she would be able to answer your question. (click here, and then go to designs)
Hope that helps!

Tagged!

Prism, at A Girl of Many Colours, tagged anyone with a birthday in summer or autumn... I'm doing it, even though my birthday is actually in spring on my side of the world, it would be in autumn on her side... does that make sense? lol...

What two qualities do you want most in your future husband (besides being a Christian)?
Humour and honesty...

Is there a fictional character you see as a model for your future husband?
Mr Darcy! :) or Doug from the Christy Miller Series

Where do you want your wedding?
A church, or maybe outside...

What are your views on courtship?
I think I would live somewhere between courtship and dating - so, involve my parents, and keep in public places and not get all involved with my heart and purity and yeah... does that make sense?

What are your views on your first kiss?
Saving it for my wedding day... whenever that gets here... :)

Do you have or want a purity ring/locket?
I have a purity ring - it is also my signet ring... it reminds me that I am first 'engaged' to God and have to live for Him first, not for any man, no matter how wonderful they seem to be.

Do you have or want a hope chest?
I have one!

Will you wear a veil at your wedding?
Probably!

What kind of wedding dress do you want?
White, and my mum and I are going to sew it together.

What flowers do you want in your bouquet?
*ugh* not lillies! I don't like the way they smell...

What do you want to name one of your daughters?
Gretchen

What do you want to name one of your sons?
Jacob Lewis

Do you believe in the 'knight-in-shining-armor' view of courtship?
Yep! Totally and entirely... :) I am a HOPELESS romantic...

What music do you want to play at your wedding?
The song 'The Given' by Michael W Smith is what I would walk down the aisle to, but other than that, I'm not sure...

Are you a hopeless romantic?
Yep, Yep, Yep!

I tag anyone who has never had a boyfriend... :)

Hope you are all doing fine!
