i absolutly love all the rain we are getting!!!!!! I usually panic when i see rain becaouse i start to think o no that means a tornada warning!!! which it really does not mean that!! But this week it has rained so much and i have never enjoyed the rain as much as i have enjoyed it this week!!!! i want it to rain for another month, then i will be okay with the sun coming out!!!! jk i enjoy the sun just as much as the rain but we rarely ever get a week of rain like this one!! it is so cool out side and kinda breeze and i love running out side bare feet in the rain!!!!!!!!! and wareing a dress, kinda like a lose hippy dress.....with my hair down... it makes me happy!!!!! but the complete reason i love being in a dress with my hair down and no shoes in the rain is becouse i get to see and feel the beautiful creation that God made!! and then seeing the rainbow!!!!!!!!!!! Rain is one of my favorite things that God desighned!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wet wet WET!!!! MUDDDY MUDD MUDD MUDD MUDD MUDD.... did i mention MUDD!!!!!!!!!!

God is Amazing

Hey every one! this is Leah!!!! i just wanted to say how wonderful God is! me and my mom were talking late at night one night and one of the discussions we had was about babies going to heaven or hell. we also talked about ( i forgot what you call it) the age which you become a christian( i think it is called the age of accountability... not sure). Well any way it was a very confusing topic...both of them and so i still am not exactly sure what to think of them but i found out that this coming Sunday they will be teaching on those two subjects!!!! i just think it is amazing how God plans everything to work out!!! this has happened many time and it is such a blessing when it does because i have problems with anxiety and fear, so when i struggle on not having faith or not trusting in one of Gods promises it almost always turns out that that Sunday they are preaching on anxiety of preaching on one of Gods promises!!!!! God is amazing and if you don't believe in him then there is no point to live! learn about him pray to him to come into your heart and forgive all your sins, and repent of all your sins(turn away from your sin). And i am not saying i am perfect because i am not i am in the same boat as every other sinner! But you need God!

pictures

PIPPEN

THis is an even cuter pic of my babie pippen!!!!!! i love him!!! but i am affraid that my dad might get rid of hem becouse he and mandy are quite the distructive dogs!!!! i wont let him!!! i would not mind getting rid of mandy but that is becouse we dont really go out and play with her and pippen very much so mandy is over weight and pippen could become an indoor dog, he was supposed to be an indoor dog but it was alot of work!!! my dad really wants a really nice back yard so we can have cook outs and invite people over!!!!

josh!!!!!

finally one of my brothers friend moved out here to texas . he was here for a church in dallas. and the people he was working for moved to detriot (i think) . and so he did not have a job .so we invited him to live with us . so he moved in on the 30th of august.and its so amazing he's like another brother to me.

Every thing works out to the Glory of God

well Sunday morning i got up got dressed and went outside to see the kittens and i could not find them! so i thought that maybe honey moved them some where el's maybe a safer place. but then i came back from church and still could not find them! i started to get nervous! well it turns out that some bozo snuck into either our garage or our front yard late at night Saturday( because i saw them at eleven nursing) and stole them!!! ya i am sad and all but seeing honey made me seriously cry! she will sit in front of the garage door calling them for hours! but no one comes out. Just think about it even ow honey must feel! even though they were strays who ever stole them thought they were ours and were still okay with breaking and entering and steeling some one elss kittens! how terrible!!!! who would do such a thing! why? well you know God obviously knows what he is doing when he takes away what we love! every thing will work out to the glory of God! maybe the person who stole them will abandon in them in a parking lot or something so that another family who want kittens will got them and then there family will be even more happy than i was to have them! we need to hope for the best! God uses evil for good! i just hope they don't beet the kittens, they were precious!!!!

MANDY

and here is mandy rachaels dog!!! and of coars pippen in the back! she is over weight although in this pic she looks kinda thin!! well only twenty pounds over! not that much. so the only pics i have of mery are black and white and guess what .... he's black!!!!!! ha ha owell he is still adorable!!

My love

look at my adorable doggy!!!!!!! he is so cute!!! bad hair cut but cute!! his name is pippen poo helms!!! i got pippen and mery (brothers) i think five or maybe six years ago! and our other dog mandy probably seven years ago! mery and pippen were so cute together but sadly some one ether poisoned mery or there was something poisonous in our back yard ( unlikely)!! we all think some one poisoned him! :(( tear) but her i have my cute little puppy still alive!! my older brother gave him to me when mery died!!

the truth comes out

Just so you know me, leah helms, and camille cannariato are sharing this blog as sisters but really we are just best friends!!!!!!!!!!!!! every one always says that we are like sisters so we act and say we are!

Me and camille go to calvery bible church on altamasa wich is in texas!!! well we are friends and we have each over all the time!!! camille loves my dad and i am horrified of hers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! but he is nice. Our parents are alot alike both our dads are strick and scarry, and both our moms are totally fun!!! ms. cannariato is my second mom and ms. helms ( my real mom) is camilles second mom!!!!!! we met year 05 at the mother daughter retreat for calvery at rocken c ranch and have been buddies ever since!!!!!!! so i was ten and she was nine when we first met and now it is 2009 and i am 14 and she is 13!!! so i hope that we remain loyal friends till the end!!!! we have many other friends as well: jillian dolton, caren mccenzie, amy hornbrook, susanna basinger, and many others!!!!!!!!!

me and camille went to schoole together for a couple of years, well it was not exactly a real school it was a co- op at my church and it consisted of these families: cannariotos, whitings, dunns, helms, kirks, there might be others i just forgot! so me and camille and joseph whiting were all in the same classes and had a blast! we all became really good friends and still are! you could say that me and camille were trouble makers but MELANIE DUNN was a trouble maker two! so not all our falt for causing so much problems!! lets just say that none of us really got along together!! me and camille would be mean to melanie and melanie would b mean right back!!! thank goodness we have grown up! all of us get along together now and melanie is cool! we love her! we all laugh about the things we did to each other because well they are hillarious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

me and camille dont really get in fights alot and when we do we only stay mad at each other for less than ten minutes!!! even when i thought camille had a new best friend jace witt i did not get mad at her i let her branch out becouse i cant be her only friend and she cant be mine we both understand that there are going to be people that we really like and we both will be okay!!!! if we didnt have any other friends than that would mean we were in a clique so thank goodness we are not!!!!!!!!!!!

I think the thing that got me past those few years was knowing that God puts certain people in your life for a reason! and uses evil for good! now me and camille are friends with melanie i got used to jace witt and for a short time we all were kinda like friends ( but then they moved and thats why were are not still friends) but my point is God knows what he is doing and all we need to do is trust him!!!
