Vacation and Fasting

 Well I finally got my blog onto my  Google account. But, (there's always a but) no access to any settings! My verse today is one of my Sunday school verses. "The LORD will fight for you, you need only to be still." Exodus 14:14

Well, I found some books that I like!(I am extremely picky so this is very good) I am reading the Harry Potter series! I am in the middle of the fourth book.

We went on a cruise this past weekend! It was my first cruise, my first time out of the country, plus I got to go with friends! It was soooo fun! I was a short cruise, only Thursday afternoon till Monday morning. We went to Cozumel, Mexico. It was so cool! It was my first time going to a beach with blue water and it was amazing! Of course, it can't all be perfect. James did not want to be in either family picture. I fell of the inflatable water park and salty water went gushing up my nose.(Luckily, I had a life jacket) Elisabeth got super motion sick after being in the waves a lot combined with the rocking of the boat. But overall, it was one of the best vacations ever! Here are some pictures:

Another thing is, I decided to become a pescatarian(it means, I eat seafood but no other animals). The main reason is I had just read an article about how not eating meat benefits your body. Also, I am just trying to be healthy, since I don't do any sports anymore.

The reason I wrote fasting for my title is because that is exactly what I am doing. I am doing a 30 hour famine to help our church feed the homeless. I 'm 10 hours in so far. Sadly I can't be there because I'll be at baking class (I'll be making cheesecake while fasting:(:( ). But I 'm still doing it. I am actually too young because I'm not in youth (middle school and high school) but I really wanted to participate so I got permission. I am really looking forward to middle school. While I'm on the subject of our church helping with things, we also helped with one called Free The Captives. They are an organization that works to stop human trafficking. Most people don't know this, but Houston is a big city for human trafficking. It's really sad. But you can donate to them at their website!

  2. Still doing 30 hour famine and Free the Captives. Love that! Here's one of my favorite verses: Fear not, for I am with you, be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. Isaiah 41:10

Hi! It's me Abigail again. When I grow up I might be an author. I'm writing a book called Penelope's adventures at dragon valley. Here's a sneak peek at the first chapter.                                               Chapter 1 Penelope the unicorn loved to explore. One day she wanted to explore Dragon Valley.  Everybody feared Dragon valley. She asked, "Does whoever goes to Dragon Valley never come back?" Nobody knew. Penelope galloped out to Dragon Valley. At the same time in Dragon Valley a new born dragon was born. Now dragons grow up really fast. The newborn dragon was  named Judas. Penelope was sure Dragon Valley would be great,but it wasn't at all.  The place where the unicorns lived was magic, and Dragon Valley was terrible.  Unicorns had huge mansions, and each unicorn family got their own. Judas loved fighting with his most strange power:...

Delicious Breakfast Idea

Bible verse (sorry I've been forgetting to do these): "If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." 1 John 1:9 If you follow me on Instagram I had a really delicious looking breakfast that I posted a picture of.
