Riding on Water

Okay I'll tell you about the title later.

It's been awhile (Again) it feels like I don't ever get on anymore, but I do still blog.
So we (Being mom and me)went to our really good friends house. Well I did my mom went with their mom to their Ranch and made all kinds of jelly, while I hung out at Joel's.
So I saw one of my best friends, Joel and we had a great time. I got there and did some school that needed to be done and then there dad drove up and I hung out with his brother Caleb. Then at like 7:00 Joel calls and his dad goes to pick him up.
After supper we watched Fantastic Mr. Fox which is a pretty ammusing movie. (Petey you rock).
The next day we played ALOT of guitar it was awsome, we just finished up the last song for our album/EP. We just need some more lyrics and David needs to get some drum beats for them. We want to record and everything in the summer, and it's looking even closer now.
Sunday we left (I wish I was at church) we had our goodbye's and I got to drive. Yeah it's like a 2 hour drive but I only drove like an hour because... well now about that title...

We were heading towards Waco and it randomly began to rain.
I slowed down to about 50 (Which I think is what I'm supposed to do). I kept thinking I'm going to hydroplane. Sure enough I lost complete control and spun out. It was really scary but at the same time I was at peace and knew it was going to be okay. Everything was in like slow motion and we did like a 270 or something and ended up in the middle of the ditch. Luckily we didn't go into oncoming traffic, or flip.
No damage was done and we were okay but I was shook up and didn't want to drive so mom did. We turned on our 4 wheel drive and got out. Then after about a mile it started to hail extremely hard. We suspected about nickel size hail and it was loud. We thought the winshield was going to cave in.
Eventually we got out of the mess and We saw this.



We were so thankful to God for bringing us through that hectic situation.
This Rainbow reminded us of His promise. Genesis 9:12-15

After that we got stuck in like what seemed like never-moving-traffic, and we listened to Cool Hand Luke and Explosions in the sky while we were waiting for the time to go by. :)

Thanks for reading, and don't die ever okay y'all.

Late.

Yeah I know it's been like the rest of forever since my last post but I've been REALLY busy and forgetting to get on this thing.
I'm still glad that I have SOME people that read my blog. Ha ha!

Well the peeps who read this probably already know that I went to a Remedy Drive concert. But for those who don't... I went to a REMEDY DRIVE CONCERT!!! It was awsome and I'm like... best friends with the lead guitarist Paul. He showed me and my friend David (I call him Dave sometimes), his foot pedals, he had tons he named a few like the distortion, reverb, tuner, etc. After that he gave some band advice and stuff on recording. Pretty sweet right? So that was awsome.

We're thinking of changing our band name to something else, but I'll keep what it is a secret for now. (suspense). So... I just finished writing 2 more songs for it, and Dave's working on the drums and I'm going to contact Joel for some details, he has a few songs like totally ready and we'll pick from his songs. We're Super close to having ALL our songs done.I made the blog, but that's also secret until our band has what we think is our final name. I'll keep you guys up to date.

So Peter is doing really well he went home a few days ago I think, and we might go see him this weekend which is exciting because it's been 3 or so weeks since the last time we saw him I think.

I also got an iPod touch, yeah the new one! It totally rocks, but It's not like taking me over or anything... :)

So thanks for reading if you did. See ya later.
