How to make your own Unicorn Horn

In case you don't know, Lynnlee and I are going to CAMP on sunday! Woo! Church Camp that is, and I just know it'll be as memorable as it was last year. We're very excited!

Every day has its own theme at camp, and Lynnlee and I take these themes very seriously. Hours of planning go into all of our crazy ideas, and it's really fullfilling when we get to wear everything. This particular post is regarding Crazy Hat Day, when we will be sporting our own Unicorn Horns, homemade and all. I decided I needed to share the awesomeness of this idea with you all, so enjoy.



Perfect size horn.


So after this, you're going to tie some elastic to both holes. You'll have to measure it around your head and cut it accordingly. I forgot to take a picture of that.. Haha I'm so professional.



SO PRETTY


 And that, my friends, is how you make a unicorn horn. I hope you enjoyed this tutorial as much as we enjoy our Unicorn Horns. Tata for now!

Thoughts and thoughts and thoughts


I write this as I do just that, so let me apologize for the lameness of this post. I'll feel a lot better once I write it though.

There is a point when you've had enough. You're tired, you're a little bitter, but mainly you're tired. Tired of feeling drained, and sad, and regretful. This is where I am. I'm so sick and tired of people toying with my emotions, then leaving me like a sack of clothes for Goodwill. I want my emotions to not be so wrapped up in the same thing all the time, when in reality it's not getting me anywhere. I want to be happy for goodness sake! Just leave me alone. That's the main thing. Leave me BE. I wish none of it had happened and I wish I wasn't so stupid. I think about it every night, wishing I could take everything back. It's not like a band aid that was ripped off quickly so it would only hurt for a little bit. It's like an infected wound that keeps getting worse with the many germs that surround it. (sorry for the image) This wound will only get better if you treat it, and stop letting the germs make it more infected. So that's what I'm doing. I'm going to the doctor, getting a nice ointment, and RUBBING IT ALL OVER THIS STUPID, FESTERING WOUND. I choose happiness. I choose to let all of this go, and never come back. I choose NOT you.

Now I realize that at this point you have no earthly idea what I'm talking about, and you shouldn't! In fact, you don't have to. Just know that this was for me. I'm sorry you had to read it. I should have just written it in my notebook, but it feels more real this way. It felt fabulous to type it out. Know that I'm getting over something that has been driving me INSANE for the past couple months. And know that I'm choosing happiness.

Have a wonderful day! And stay tuned for a fun tutorial coming up. (:

Lovely Pinterest Finds

Pinterest is a really good friend of mine. It helps me be creative, it gives me inspiration and encouragement, it helps me out when we're doing absolutely nothing at school... Whaaaat? Did I say that? Anyway, here are a few items that tickled my fancy. Enjoy.

Chemistry Study Sheet!


 Hey. So we have this final in Chemistry... and no one has learned anything... So I thought it'd be nice to provide my study sheet we can use on our test to anybody who would like it. I'm bringing a whole bunch of copies to school tomorrow, but it isn't guaranteed you'll get one! This provides everyone with an easy way to access the sheet. All you have to do is click on the link below, then hit download file, (don't worry it's totally safe, it's just a pdf) and open it! From there you can print as many as you would like. I hope this helps some people! So have at it.

Jumbles of nice things I need to tell you.

I hope that you know... There are 3 days left until Summer. Yeah. I desperately need those 3 days to be over, dunsky, finished. I mean this is just getting tedious. Geh. But on the bright side, we could've been getting out on May 31st if we had snow days. We did NOT. So happy day for getting out of school earlier than planned!

My sister told me about this dream she had the other night. It went like this. (This her talking)
"So I was at this pool party, and I was inside watching the OKC Thunder game when this one guy walked in and said 'Hey there's this girl named Leslie out there talking crap on Bekah.' I just got up, went outside and said 'Where's Leslie?' She waved her hand in the air and said 'Over here!' So I went over there, slammed her head against a table, then punched her in the face. Then I woke up."
Now, I don't know about you, but if Rachel came over and slammed my head into a table and then punched me in the face, I'd be absolutely terrified and most likely unconscious. She's a gymnast, so she's kind of strong. To a very strong degree. Anyway, I thought that was really funny! I asked Rachel if she would really do that if someone was talking crap about me and she said she totally would. (I then proceeded to mention a few names of people that she could do this to.. but we'll keep those names unrevealed.)
Look at these really cute pictures of Lynnlee's dog, Chloe! She's adorable. I like taking pictures of doggies.




Cute right? Yeah. Also, church camp is coming up soon! I'm really excited to get to share the memories I'll have like I did last year. It'll be so much fun! Lynnlee's going again this year, I just can't wait! I also love these songs:

So I think that's it. Wish me luck so I don't kill myself in these next 3 days. It'll really tax my soul. Have a wonderful day!

Flowers are Pretty

I like flowers. They're really pretty. They're also very fun to photograph. Sometimes I wish I was as pretty as a flower. I'd be happy if I was. Enjoy nature and have a wonderful day.

The Almost Dog Days of Summer!

Hi there! Guess what you guys. There are only 5 days of school left until Summertime adventures. How exciting!! I can't wait to be able to swim and sleep and just have fun. I am taking College Algebra with Madison at our community college, which will make me have homework, but in the long run it will prove to be very lovely to have a college class out of the way. Wanna know what else is happening this summer?! I'm going to get my license. That's right, I'll be mobile and the likes. I won't have to wait for stinkin' rides! That gets very tedious and irksome. So YAY for driving! 

I looked out my window after school today and I saw my dogs just laying down and looking all tired and such, so I couldn't resist snapping a few pictures of their laziness. As always, there are more pictures of Lucy than Brody because Brody despises pictures. Lucy just begs to model, so there are plenty of photos of her. (: Summer is almost here!

My Mom.


There are few people who can influence me more than my mother can. I think about what it would be like without her here and I can't even fathom it. She's my best friend, my advice-giver. She's the voice that I hear in my head telling me not to do bad things. I love hanging out with my mom. She cracks me up. I'll never forget when she told me, "Bekah, don't you ever let anybody take away your sparkle." It will forever be in my head. She cares so much about my family, and it just breaks my heart to think that I'll be leaving her in 2 years. I don't want to leave. I want to stay with my mom forever and ever. I want to always start to leave the house and her run up fast and kiss me on the cheek. I want to always laugh at the dorky but adorable things she says. I want to always watch her dance and sing to country music playing on the TV while she cleans the house. And believe it or not, I want her to always be asking me the same questions about my social life that she's continued to ask for the past 4 years. She's my mom, and I haven't realized until recently how lucky I am to have her. I've just always had such a good mom that I never really realized that I could hate my mom, or not have a mom. So I guess from all of this, I want to thank her. I want her to know how much I truly care about her, and how much I love her. She's the  best mom that I could ever ask for, and I want her to know that. If you're reading this mom, thank you from the bottom of my heart. I don't know what you did to get me to like you as much as I do, but I hope that I can someday do the same with my kids. I love you so much mommy!!

We made breakfast for my mom this morning! Here are some pictures of the deliciousness.

Thinking.

I like thinking. It's one of my all time favorite ways to pass the time. I could let my mind just wonder and wonder about all kinds of things for years. It never gets old! One of my favorite places to ponder things is my roof. I've mentioned my roof before, but I'm gonna mention it again! It's just so serene and quiet. Most of the time. Sometimes a yippy dog next door ruins the whole experience, but regardless it's still pretty lovely up there. Writing is also a wonderful thing to do on my roof.



So I encourage you to dig deep into your mind this week and just think. Find a nice place where it's only you and your thoughts. It's really good for the soul. And I sound like a hippie, so this post is ending right now.
