Chocolate brings much Joy

Dear family,

You may have realized that I changed the name of my blog.  I don't know how long this will last.  Maybe forever.  I just wanted to share the quote that was on the inside of one of my dove chocolate wrappers.  I ate the chocolate a long time ago, but the wrapper remains in my scriptures.  Yes, I do have candy wrappers in my scriptures.  But, the wrapper says, "The more you praise and celebrate your life, the more there is in life to celebrate."  I really want to celebrate my life more.  I have a wonderful life even if I don't think I do.  I always try to imagine what I would do if I was someone else.  I would hate to be someone else.  I am going through my own trials, and I don't want to go through another person's.  I cannot imagine the strength that others have.  I don't know how they keep celebrating their life.  But, I will keep my own life.  I love being myself and love that I am not you.  I am sorry if that sounds rude to you; it is just that I am thankful that I am I and you are you.  We are meant to be ourselves and celebrate the people that we are.

Thank you for being such supportive family.  I love all of you and am glad that I am able to know all of you.  I hope you are doing well.  Look to the future because you make a difference.  You are the only one who can be you. 

Let's Celebrate!
Love,
Cami

Sometimes we are Nerds

If anyone has ever wanted to know what I do with my brothers, now is the time to read.  My brothers have many legos.  They have people from “Star Wars,” “Indiana Jones,” “Pirates of the Caribbean,” “Batman,” and other movies.  They also have some regular zombies and one Justin Bieber.  So, we tend to make “scenes” with the lego people.  They are always rather interesting.


The first two pictures are of the girls who flock to Justin Bieber and are upset that his head got sliced off by a monkey with a lightsaber.

For my birthday, I got a Snow White doll (courtesy of Cherise Turley).  I used it for the first time today.  The story is changed some in this scene.  The dwarf on the far left is giving Snow White the apple.

This is an example of one of the Star Wars scenes.  Yesterday, Emmett had a droid army fighting the clone army in the streets of the Lego City.

 The last picture is of He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named (Voldemort) using Floo Powder in the fireplace of one of the houses in the Lego City.

This is what we do sometimes in our free time.  We are nerds, we know.  But, this fun.  Sometimes the scenes can get a little graphic especially when a seagull has pooped on the head of a Lego person.
