I will have the chance to do things like hiking, canoeing, CPR, and other really cool things. It is a challenge I would love to take and the things you learn while you are there are good things to know. Maybe I might be able to do the next one which is in May of 2013. So I have plenty of time to get fit for it:) </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: large;">We just finished doing Shavuot for the first time. I have developed a love for celebrating these times. I enjoyed it a lot and learned a lot as well.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: large;"> Did you know that Shavuot was when the Torah was given by Hashem on Mt. Sinai more than 3300 years ago? That is really really important. The Torah is the very foundation for life. Special meals are eaten on this day and no work is done. We also read the story of Ruth and Boaz. We danced and sang praises to Hashem. It was a wonderful time of fellowship with likeminded believers. We Blessed our Heavenly Father for providing bread from the earth for us. We read the Torah and studyed about the Holy Spirit.</span><br />

My days</span> <span style="font-size:130%;">are full to overflowing with responsibilities. I am learning so much. Just to name a few:</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size:130%;"></span><br /><br /><span style="font-size:130%;">1. How to plan meals</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size:130%;">2. How to keep a home neat and organized</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size:130%;">3. How to start a home business</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size:130%;">4. How to homeschool</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size:130%;">5. How to garden</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size:130%;">6. How to grow and use herbs</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size:130%;">7. How to sew</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size:130%;">8. Learning to love my Saviour and build good character in myself and my siblings(This is the most important)</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size:130%;"></span><br /><br /><span style="font-size:130%;">I am nineteen years old and beginning to realize that there is so much to learn. I love every bit of it though! Sometimes it does get really difficult. But I have to tell myself that the stressful moments in my life help me to learn patience and many other character qualities I need to develop. I would like to begin to share with you my Journey through womanhood. It is quite an interesting journey and very exciting! I hope that maybe I can help other young ladies who are striving to do the same thing.</span><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhDLkhVq0rUK3X8BKj3mtaRjrVVXpOyYWbhDAloHwMUKe0CmR-OGVL03PtmfMC3G_dtv_VDmReEQSqFRHZMf1IJt70CJK74nOeF6Q7plW_sjz-_DJIV-6NJ-yx0WD6Mz4AT5MVeWKUOrc4/s1600/twogirls.jpg"><img style="WIDTH: 148px; HEIGHT: 220px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5697618431812213938" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhDLkhVq0rUK3X8BKj3mtaRjrVVXpOyYWbhDAloHwMUKe0CmR-OGVL03PtmfMC3G_dtv_VDmReEQSqFRHZMf1IJt70CJK74nOeF6Q7plW_sjz-_DJIV-6NJ-yx0WD6Mz4AT5MVeWKUOrc4/s320/twogirls.jpg" /></a>Arielhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14829175673527721967noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-560337554360339871.post-89312939527735578552011-11-30T13:52:00.000-08:002011-11-30T13:53:41.430-08:00I Believe!<iframe height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/_jmsD904Hk8" frameborder="0" width="560"></iframe><br />Do you believe?Arielhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14829175673527721967noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-560337554360339871.post-83069583115160763492011-08-31T08:43:00.001-07:002011-08-31T09:27:03.089-07:00Here I GoPlease pray for me as I follow my Heavenly Fathers path for me to Oklahoma. Yep! Today is the day. I know He is going to teach me so much during my time there. I will be pushed to my limits but I know my Heavenly Saviour knows no limits. In Him all things are possible. You know doing this was not on the top of my list but it was on the top of His. And I have given my life to Him so wherever He leads me I will go. I am nervous and a bit anxious but I am reminded often by my Saviour that He does not ask me to do anything on my own not even the smallest job.
<br />
<br />
<br />Jeremiah 29:11 Says, " For I know the thoughts that I think towards you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end."
<br />
<br />1Corinthians 15:58 "Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye steadfast, unmovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labor is not in vain in the Lord."

The Hebrew word simcha means happiness in the most full sense. The simcha inside of me is overflowing (hence the blog name). I feel this way a lot. At night when there is a lot of time to think I get excited when I think about what my Heavenly Father does and what He is going to do. I am passionate about Him. He has blessed my family and I in so many different ways. Life is not without trials and stressful days or sadness and strife but He does promise that all things work together for good to them who love Him (Romans 8:28). Even though times have been hard in the past doesn't mean I can't have simcha today and be overwhelmingly enthusiastic. I choose to be a joyful person all the days of my life. But the simcha inside me is not my own I know that it is the Ruach Hakodesh (Holy Spirit) who lives inside of me.

I have never been so excited about stickers in my life. I chose this really pretty tree to put on my wall. My sister chose some horse stickers. Our room looks so much better!! I am so excited about it. It makes me feel like I'm in the forest.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhqnRzvfKLjVERFtN6glo54PKK_4QQJYwK7GIdX0WSzY2G9VOxrGhyphenhyphenjOv-P9dUFH6UCQZbo6tHqOv1QNzM_4atTO4YpmyIIXVVVF-3nJZlRAZmopdb5h7JKPz7DnoMIsS8TK5aBO-nC5Eg/s1600/HPIM0836.JPG"><img style="WIDTH: 320px; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5630770910990738610" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhqnRzvfKLjVERFtN6glo54PKK_4QQJYwK7GIdX0WSzY2G9VOxrGhyphenhyphenjOv-P9dUFH6UCQZbo6tHqOv1QNzM_4atTO4YpmyIIXVVVF-3nJZlRAZmopdb5h7JKPz7DnoMIsS8TK5aBO-nC5Eg/s320/HPIM0836.JPG" /></a>Arielhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14829175673527721967noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-560337554360339871.post-88274031335030619402011-05-24T17:16:00.000-07:002011-05-24T17:19:02.795-07:00Flower Tutorials<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhY62MQoFfgLA0qarAFJaXO7KRT7QMepHZG36Hxlgg7J5yo-TI66nGtxB9VsSXcjBM7kD6V7y9v_pORB4E6beCyHjCOYO_QnrItRR_Y7d3hqbj2-ISOF-bQE-CBc6YI5eUfei5LbZk1Bxg/s1600/HPIM0695.JPG"><img style="WIDTH: 320px; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5610441342997490370" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhY62MQoFfgLA0qarAFJaXO7KRT7QMepHZG36Hxlgg7J5yo-TI66nGtxB9VsSXcjBM7kD6V7y9v_pORB4E6beCyHjCOYO_QnrItRR_Y7d3hqbj2-ISOF-bQE-CBc6YI5eUfei5LbZk1Bxg/s320/HPIM0695.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://http//likemountzion.blogspot.com/2011/03/flower-tutorial.html">Here</a><strong> is the tutorial for this flower.</strong></div>Arielhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14829175673527721967noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-560337554360339871.post-36240519434194247792011-05-23T17:34:00.000-07:002011-05-24T17:12:20.215-07:00Flower For Commit<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhlblm0tro-c6aYz404TqgJjTQ-uoAOmjAd76T6sR5E9i15USp0_PCdr9AC75FVNldgHMj3j2GZtyRlOnPqKm78nfEOLpiLof4XGdwP1w5BA5myxWfl4834k0DsYsP6e-gnpiaq9c3lGBc/s1600/HPIM0808.JPG"><img style="WIDTH: 320px; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5610074620777135538" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhlblm0tro-c6aYz404TqgJjTQ-uoAOmjAd76T6sR5E9i15USp0_PCdr9AC75FVNldgHMj3j2GZtyRlOnPqKm78nfEOLpiLof4XGdwP1w5BA5myxWfl4834k0DsYsP6e-gnpiaq9c3lGBc/s320/HPIM0808.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><br /><div><strong>Here is a flower that my friend and I will be teaching to the girls at the ATI Conference next week. I did something different to my flower than the original tutorial. I twisted it until it looked like there were three petals in between the three petals on top. Then I just glued everything together and added a fabric covered button. This is so cute and so fun.</strong><a href="http://kindawonderful.typepad.com/pink_paper_peppermints/2008/06/rounded-petal-fabric-flowers-31-crafty-flowers-in-31-days--day-23.html"><strong> Here </strong></a><strong>is the link to the tutorial. </strong></div>Arielhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14829175673527721967noreply@blogger.com0
