Holidays

Ahh! Holidays! I just love them. They make me so cheerful and happy. Seeing people I usually don't see, eating TONS of food, going to see family, and simply just being out of school. I just am always in a holiday mood. One of my pet peeves is when people celebrate a holiday before the other ends. For example putting christmas decorations up before thanksgiving.
My family has many traditions we do for each holiday. Thanksgiving we always go to Florida to visit my moms side of the family. We are like one big, Italian family. We are LOUD, eat tons, and laugh uncontrollably. It is always loads of fun. On Thanksgiving we go to my grandmas second house. It sits on hundreds of acres. They have four wheelers, dirt bikes, golf carts, etc. We just race all throughout the trails. It never gets old.
This year I went earlier than my family. They all come Wednesday and I came Sunday! I flew in and did a layover all by myself... oh i am so proud! :) I was nervous but just asked some random non creepy people and it was all good. From the time I stepped off the plane till now I have been going non stop having fun! We went to see New Moon (ahhh! best ever), went shopping (tons of new adorable clothes), manicures, and eating out! It has been a blast. So worth my horrid plane rides. Tonight we picked my aunt up from the airport. She was flying in from college. Yes, I have an aunt thats only four years older than me. Weird... I know. She is already gone off with friends. I am now watching movies with my nonnie and enjoying every bit of it! :)
Like I said, Holidays are the best!

My assumption, His answer

Last weekend was amazing! Sorry I am a little late to tell about it. I was re awakened with Gods truth, I sewed a friendship back together, I hung out with people I would of never seen myself with, and I didn't have a lot of homework (always a plus).
I always assume things which I need to stop doing. I assumed me and her would never talk; we hung out last weekend. I assumed he wouldn't want to hang out with me; we hung out a whole day last weekend. I assumed God would just give up on me; he never has and never will.
Assumptions usually only set me up for failure. I tell myself something so many times I start to believe it even though its not true. I have gotten in so many arguments with the result being, "oh, i just assumed you..." That assumption caused an argument that wouldn't of been there if I didn't let Satan into my head and create it. My prayer for today is that God will open my eyes and show me the difference between my assumption and His answer.
Have a wonderful weekend y'all! :)
