“Don’t Think, or Judge… Just Listen”











{June 24, 2006}   Draw me close

This week has been pretty trying for me. But God never ceases to amaze me.

I know i'm not a perfect person and i struggle with things. I mess up and let myself down. But I try, and God's patience and Love always helps me. I get so frustrated sometimes because it doesn't feel like i'll ever become the woman God wants me to be. 

I keep coming back to what I heard once though, "I know i'm a long way away. But i'm gonna get there, because I have hope in you and what you can do inside of me." 

 I know my heart, and that my desire is to follow God 100% and become the person he wants me to be. It gets hard sometimes, but I know that as long as i'm following God it will all work out. I look back to who I was just like 5 years ago and how much i've changed. So much about me is different when i really look, and even though it doesn't feel like i've come far, God has brought me a long way.

I know that God will get me through whatever is next in my life and i know he will continue to transform me as long as i let him. That gives me hope.

Hugs and Cuddles, <3 always, Tiffany 



{June 18, 2006}   Wedding Bells are ringing.

So, today's the big day. At 4:30 Matt and Ashley officially become mashley. good stuff. lol. It's calling for rain and has been raining, but appearently we will be going ahead with it outside. I'm expecting this wedding to be awesome. Upstairs it's hilarious. I even found out there are more people who dance like jesse. Who knew?!? hahaha. 

 Anyway, The groom is nervous and the bride seems stressed. But it's all good. Bill is planning on enjoying this day and i am the first one to throw up my hands and say right on bill! but then when people start glaring at him, i will be the first to say, what? it wasn't me!

 I say, it's a wedding. Have fun! i'm all for the classy, elegant weddings. But the mood today is set for good times. Plus we're calfees, so expect people like bill to make it enjoyable. That's why my wedding will be very small, lol. 

But seriously. I give my best wishes to mashley. I want matt to be happy and if ashley makes him happy. Then I say good for them. I love matt, we've spent over 20 years together in the same house. He gave me strength in moments that I needed it and was a brother to me, when i was an only child. I can't picture life without matt. I don't always agree with his decisions but in the end he's a good guy.  I love matt, i pray that God touches their marriage. I wish them a lifetime of happiness.

Best wishes on starting your new life together. 

Love always, Tiffany (Hoop) 



{June 9, 2006}   Lord of the Rings

We want to have a day of Lord of the Rings. I wasn't sure who wanted to come or when people would be able to. So, I figured i'd post it on here and in the comments or whatever people could discuss if or when they wanted to do it. 

Wlp, Have a wonderful evening,

Love always, Tiffany 



{June 1, 2006}   Hawk Nelson: Take Me
Can you hear me? Does anyone around me

Feel the way that I feel now?

Cause from the window where I sometimes cry

I just want to see Your face tonight

And I’m willing to lose everything I am

Cause I need you more than ever

I need Your help to find where I’ve been going wrong so far

Take me under Your wing tonight

Make me so perfect in Your eyes

Hold on cause it will be alright

You’re not alone 

When You’re near me, I feel like I just found me

In the traces of the boy from yesterday

But in a world that is so black and white

I will take the steps to change my life

And I won’t be coming back to here again

I need Your loving hand to guide me

Through the maze of all the things inside me

Then I’ll know that I’m alright

Cause I need You more than ever

I need Your help to find where I’ll be going wrong so far

Take me under Your wing tonight

Make me so perfect in Your eyes 

Hold on cause it will be alright

You’re not alone

Please help me get from worse to better

Before these tears soak through this lonely sweater

And let me know that I’m alright

I still have one strike of this match left

And I’m holding on to my last breath

And its getting a little dark around to see here

Take me under Your wing tonight

Make me so perfect in your eyes

Hold on cause it will be alright

You’re not alone

And You’ll be here forever, forever You’ll stay

And You promised to love me, You’ll love me always

You’ll love me for always, You’ll love me for always

Always


This was a bulletin posted on myspace and i thought i'd share it here.

 I'm a 90's kid! (so much has changed in 20 years!)

  Anybody under the age of 15 should not read this, and if you do, you should not repost this…..

Just because you were born in '92 doesn't mean you're a 90's kid.

It's not like you could remember the original Simpsons. I am sorry but three conscious years of the nineties just wont cut it.

You're a 90's kid if:

You've ever ended a sentence with the word "PSYCHE!"

You can sing the rap to "The Fresh Prince Of Bel Air"

You remember when Kurt Cobain, Tu Pac, River Phoenix, and Selena died.

You know that "WOAH" comes from Joey from "Blossom" and that "How Rude!" comes from Stephanie from "Full House"

You remember when it was actually worth getting up early
on a Saturday to watch cartoons.

You got super excited when it was Oregon Trail day in computer class at school.

You remember reading "Goosebumps"

You know the profound meaning of "Wax on, wax off"

You have pondered why Smurfette was the only female smurf.

You took plastic cartoon lunch boxes to school.

you danced to "wannabe" by the Spice Girls, Females: had a new motto, Males: got a whole lot gay-er. (so tell me what you want, what you really really want.)

You remember the craze then the banning of slap bracelets and slam books.

You still get the urge to say "NOT" after (almost) every sentence…Not…

Where in the world is Carmen San Diego? was both a game and a TV game show.

Captain Planet.

You knew that Kimberly, the pink ranger, and Tommy, the red* Ranger were meant to be together.

To the last sentence you said…..hey…Tommy was the green* ranger!!!!

*later to be white

When playing power rangers with friends you fought over who got to be who…………and still all ended up being tommy.

You remember when super nintendo's became popular.

You remember watching home alone 1, 2 , and 3……..and tried to pull the pranks on "intruders"

"I've fallen and I can't get up"

You remember going to the skating rink before there were inline skates

Two words… Trapper Keeper.

You ever got injured on a Slip 'n' Slide

You wore socks over leggings scrunched down

"Miss Mary Mack, Mack, Mack, all dressed in black, black, black, with silver buttons, buttons, buttons, all down her back, back, back" SHE ASKED HER MOTHER MOTHER MOTHER FOR FIFTY CENTS CENTS CENTS TO SEE THE ELEPHANTS PHANTS PHANTS JUMP OVER THE FENCE THE FENCE THE FENCE
he jumped so high high high he touched the sky sky sky and he didnt come back back back til the forth of july ly ly he jumped so low ow ow he stubbed his toe toe toe and thats the end end end of the elephants show show show

You remember boom boxes vs. cd players

You remember New Kids on The Block when they were cool

You knew all the characters names and their life stories on "Saved By The Bell"

You played and or collected "Pogs"

You had at least one Tamagotchi, GigaPet or Nano and brought it everywhere

You watched the original Care Bears, My Little Pony, and Ninja Turtles

NANCY DREW AND THE HARDY BOYS WERE THE BEST MYSTERY BOOKS

Yikes pencils and erasers were the stuff!

All your school supplies were "Lisa Frank" brand.(pencils.notebooks.binders.etc.)

You remember when the new Beanie Babies were always sold out.

You used to wear those stick on earings, not only on your ears, but at the corners of your eyes.

You remember a time before the WB.

You've gotten creeped out by "Are You Afraid of the Dark?"

You know the Macarena by heart.

"Talk to the hand" … enough said

You thought Brain woud finally take over the world

You always said, "Then why don't you marry it!"

You remember when everyone went slinky crazy.

You remember when razor scooters were cool.

when we were younger:

Before the MySpace frenzy.

Before the Internet & text messaging.

Before Sidekicks & iPods.

Before MIKE JONES

Before PlayStation2 or X-BOX.

Back when you put off the 5 hours of homework you had every night.

WHEN LIGHT UP SNEAKERS WERE KOOL

When you rented VHS tapes, not DVDs.

When gas was $0.95 a gallon & Caller ID was a new thing.

When we recorded stuff on VCRs & paid $3.50 for a movie.

When we called the radio station to request songs to hear off our walkmans.

When 2Pac and Biggie where alive.

When the Chicago Bulls were the best team ever.

Way back.

Tag.

Get Over Here!!!! means something to you.

Hide-n-Go Seek at dusk.

Red Light, Green Light.

Heads Up 7 Up.

Playing Kickball & Dodgeball until your porch light came on.

Hopskotch.

Slip-n-Slides…. now there are just ghetto ones

Tree Houses.

Hula Hoops.

HELLO….HOT WHEELS!!!!!

"POWER OF LOVE" BY CELINE DION..ONLY COUPLES COULD SKATE TO THIS.

The annoying Nano Pets & Furbies.

Running through the sprinklers.

That "Little Mermaid"

Crying when Mufasa died in the Lion King.

Happy Meals where you chose a Barbie or a Hot Wheels car.

Getting the privelage to sit in the front seat of the car.

Drinking Sqeeze It "Squeeze The Fun Out Of It"

CAPRI SUN

Watching Saturday Morning Cartoons in your PJ's still wrapped up in your TMNT, Power Rangers, Barbie, Fairy Princess comforter.

PEE-WEE!!!

The Big Comfy Couch

Kool-Aid was the drink of choice.

Wearing your new shoes on the first day of school.

Class field trips.

When Christmas was the most exciting time of year.

When $5 seemed like a million, & another dollar a miracle.

When you begged to go to McDonalds for dinner everyday.

When Toys R Us overuled the mall.

Go back to the time when:

Decisions were made by going 'eeny-meeny-miney-moe'.

Mistakes were corrected by simply exclaiming 'do over!'

'Race issue' ment arguing about who ran the fastest.

Money issues were handled by whoever was banker in 'Monopoly'.

It wasn't odd to have two or three 'best' friends.

Being old referred to anyone over 20.

A chance to skate as a couple at the local roller rink was like winning the lottery.

Scrapes & bruises were kissed & made better.

Where the best form of protection was "circle circle dot dot now I've got my cootie shot, circle circle square square now I've got it everywhere"

It was a big deal to finally be tall enought to ride the 'big people' rides at the fair.

When playing Nintendo was the hardest thing ever.

When Ninja Turtles ruled the world.

Before we realized all this would eventually disappear

who would have thought youd miss the 90's so much!!!!!
