Nothing much to say :(

HI!
                                      OK, so I really have not had a single thing interesting happen lately! I read every one's posts and find my current situation not very interesting. My younger brother and I are trying to take care of our neighbor's garden, it looks helpless now and I was attacked by a Finch who evidently had a nest nearby, but it seems to be coming along. I found a just perfect pattern that I think would be perfect brides maid dress pattern for a future dream wedding! The Pattern is ( Butterick B5970 ) I don't know how to do the links and all but if you look it up I like the one on the right! Look it up if you wish (you really should, I'm sure it would be favourable).
Has anyone else watched Little Dorrit? How about Little House on the Prairie or Road to Avonlea? Each are time consuming but very much worth watching!
And so ...... thinking ..... I went to Worlds Of Fun and road the barrel drop 8 times, for those who have never ridden it spins the riders very fast till they stick to the sides then the floor drops about two feet so the riders are dangling on the wall! Thrilling right?
OK I must go, my brother wants to go to Home Depot so I have to drive him, Ta ta

Just catching y'all up

    

Hello all! We have all been quite busy lately, with the new patio, my grandpa had a surgery, then there was the Ordinations! (for those of you who weren't there we have twelve new priest! I guess I will put a bit of happy Fourth of July in my post?

What has everyone else got planned? My parents want a quite thing this year so we are going to set off some fireworks at home, make some s'mores, then swim in our easy set pool as late as possible and watch the neighbors larger fireworks from there! Every forth we have to deal with neighbors shooting off fireworks all night long, my mom says it in very rude because the kids won't go to sleep.

It has been so long since I posted so I must tell y'all that in the beginning of May we had a snow fall that covered the ground and nearly caused choir practise to be canceled! My mom was the opposite of pleased about it.

I have been doing a lot of sewing lately, I have made two jumpers, four dresses, and five skirts so far this year and one of the skirts was made out of a unused flat sheet! You could not even tell so we sewed the tag on, it read (THE BIG ONE, Size Full!) I laughed the whole time! Well I need to go, I have to watch the kids while my mom goes to have the van fixed, I'll write again soon.

16? REALLY!

So I turned 16 today, and right now I feel as though I was only 10 yesterday! I now have my licence and have gone out alone twice so far. I must say I was more than nervous about having someone I don't know driving with me and was terribly nervous ( I'm sure I'm not the only one) but I passed just the same. When I was 8 I used to wish I could be 16 and now that I'm 16 I wish I could just go back to being 8 and just freeze for a while!

If you could live anywhere, where would you live and why? I must say that I don't think I could live anywhere but Missouri, I kinda attached myself to home and would prefer to stay around here. The only thing that would make me ever move elsewhere would be if St. Vincent de Paul's Church was shut down, and I am pretty sure that won't ever happen.

I am planting a garden this year! I will not only have several types of wild flowers but also various vegetables like green beans and broccoli. Is any one else doing a garden? Well it's been lovely but I must go I will post later on.

Easter post

J.M.J.

Well Easter is tomorrow! After the great preparation I am finally ready. I have made my dress this year, it took a week but I am now, as of this morning, and shall share it with all of you (don't you feel special?) I am very pleased with the out come.

The top ( I am terrible with pictures,
the spot you see is just dirt on the lens)

I also made a cover for my
Catholic girls guide

 

Here is the finish (I will soon add one of
myself wearing it)



Here is the cloth!

Cute as one of my little brothers is I must put his birthday up.

He look nearly completely like me! I just turned 4.

 

It's a Girl!

So, my mom had a lovely baby girl Monday, March 11th, around 11:28 p.m. , the crazy thing about it is that March 12th is my 4 year old brother Sampson's birthday! Her name is Greta Celine Stalker and was 7 pounds 14 ounces last time we had her weighed. I am adding a pic of myself holding the dear! She is very cute, but a little on the fussy side. Greta is number 12 and will be quite spoiled. I also added some more pics of every one together and such.

from youngest to oldest the names are Greta, John, Benjamin, Daniel,
Bernadette, Luke, Elijah, Sarah, Cassandra (as in yours truly), Gabrielle,
Colette (who is not here), and My mom and dad.

Pretty as can Be

Just an up date

Hello all!

I must use the general excuse of being busy(I promise its not a lie) My mother is expecting the baby any day now so as the third oldest I am filled with responsibilities. Well, Easters is closely approaching and I know every one is spending as much time as possible finding was to recieve graces from this holy season so my post will be quite short. I have lately been making those little sliders you set your cup on (the ones you use to keep the ring from showing up on the table) for some people I also make personalized towels ect, I pretty much can do any cross stiching project. Anyway, I have been trying to think of more projects to do and would welcome all ideas!
 
    How many people have spring birthdays? Most every one in my house has a birthday in spring or right before Christmas. I have been reading a very good book lately, In Likeness Of Christ, I don't do well on explaining those sort of things, but I would truly recomened it. I have changed my blogger backround so tell me if it is too vivid for the eyes.
Well I must go but please pray for my family,
Cassandra Stalker (scary last name right?)

Nothing really to report

Just catching you up

 

Hello all! Sorry I don't write often but my mother is expecting number 12 so thing are quite busy around the Stalker house hold for the time being. I have mainly been trying to push though tenth grade and due to a week in bed with influenza I have been failing badly. I hope all of you are healthy because everyone at our Church is quite sick and about a dozen different flues are running though the families. I am hoping to learn to cook something that is edible this year because I am a lousy cook and do more baking than my mother can stand. Well that pretty much catches you up on what been happening.
