WOW, today was fun!!!!

Sorry its been so long since I last wrote! busy babysitting!!

So today, my best friend came over (She's still over!!) and we went down to the river with my parents and our dog. We started off standing in the river and skipping stones (I could never get over two!!!! Except once and i only got 3. >.<) Then we called over my dog and she starts running through (HI!!!! KYS FRIEND HERE! she left the computer unatended) (thanks Sarah. Thanks a lot. as you can see my friend jacks my computer :P)  Anyway my dog starts running through the river and we start chasing her! we get soaked (luckily we had swimsuits) after my parents came and got the dog, its starts POURING RAIN!!!!!!! so we start running through the river and the rain. We looked for shells, skipped stones, splashed each other....and the best part........THE PARK NEAR THE RIVER HAD SWINGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D :D :D yes im a teenager and i like to swing.. deal with it!!! and while we were swinging, i was getting a little higher, and i slipped cuz of how wet the seats (and me) were! haha. however, jumping off the swing was funn because how slippery it was!!!! LOL. and we repeated this whole thing until the thunder and lightning started. then we went back to the river and my parents yelled at us to come back over cuz we were leaving. hahah. it was a funnnnnn dayyyyyyyyyyy. summer has officially started for me!!!! (Its been summer for two weeks but summer never officially starts until i do something with my friends)

Military

wow i never realized how much i use this blog!!! :P lol. now onto todays topic! :)

   I'm the daughter of a marine, a cousin/ niece to tons of other soldiers. I support the military 100%. however, i found out recently that thats not the case for everyone. I grew up around soldiers my whole life. Marines, soldiers in the airforce, navy and army and even the coast gaurd i believe. i could be wrong. i have a big family :P
   My dad is a retired marine. He served 3 tours in Iraq and almost didnt come home his last time. One of his best friends who is also his gunner, didnt come home. Soldiers sacrifice theres lives everyday for our country. They go over seas to protect us knowing very well, they may not come home again. Soldiers are heros! They do so much for us and ask nothing in return. But, you know what is awful?
   Some people actually HATE the troops!!!!!!
  Yep, they HATE them!!! someone even went as far as to make a facebook page called "F*** the troops!!!" CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT?!?!?! Thank God facebook had the group removed. people think of the troops as murderers. Not defenders! yes, they do kill people while over seas. But its considered selfdefense because they are DEFENDING our contry! When i found out people hate the soldiers, it made me want to support them even more. Yesterday i made it official to support them as much as i can. You wanna know why?
    My brother just got sworn into the united states Marine Corps.
   So now not only am i the daughter, cousin and niece of a marine. now im a sister of a marine. :) and i couldnt be any more proud!!! I promised myself that if i became a famous singer/author, i would donate more then half of my money to the USO, trees for troops, the Andy Nowacki FOundation and tones of other charities.
   Do you support the troops too? I hope so. If you know someone who doesn't support the troops, ask them why. And if they say "They're murderers" or anything like that, Please, DEFEND THE TROOPS!!!!! i urge you too!!!! I love the soldiers and will support them until the day i die. WHat about you?
