Kaelyn’s Questions

(her questions will be in Bold, my answers will be in normal text)

  1. What is your favorite book series?
    I love the Harry Potter series, the Chronicles of Narnia, and the Dear America series. I also like the In Grandma’s Attic series and Anne of Green Gables series
  2. When was the last time you ate a bagel?
    Honestly, I have no idea.
  3. Have you ever been out of the country you currently live in?
    Yes. I have.
  4. Favorite summer camp and/or just summer memory?
    Well, I have two favorite memories that I can think of!
    Two summers ago was my first time going to CYIA training, and the Sunday that we were at training I was asked if I was related to one of the leaders (I’m not), and I was told that we look really similar (we do) and after that we became friends. We called each other “hair twins”
This is us! (faces blocked for privacy reasons)

Another favorite memory I have is the time I invited a friend over for a sleepover. We slept outside in a tent and stayed up until 3am. It was a lot of fun, and we got to know each other better.

5. Favorite thing about school now or when you were younger?
hmmm. I’d have to say my favorite thing about school now is when we go to our homeschool group! I have a nice group of friends there!

6.Favorite snow cone flavor?
I like cherry snow cones, although I would love to try shave ice with sour apple flavoring!

7. What is your favorite way to stay active?
I love hiking, kayaking, and biking! All of those are active while relaxing for me!

Alright guys, that’s it! I hope you all enjoy doing these awards!


Quick life update:

Starting tomorrow I will be doing CYIA (Christian Youth In Action) training. Although the training is different and not as long this year due to COVID-19, I think that it will still be intensive and tiring. I may or may not post depending on how tired I am over the weekend and days after the training, therefore, if you do not see a post within the next week or so you know why! I am excited for the training! Please be praying that all goes well and that the hearts of everyone participating in the training will be open to whatever God wants to teach them. Thank you!

A new blog?

Amy Zemkim started a blog! Be sure to check it out! She plays piano very well, and guys, as with all new blogs, she needs support! So, go give her a like, listen to her recordings, and leave a nice comment! I would love if you would support her because I know what it feels like to be a new blogger with hardly a clue of what to post. I know the feeling of being discouraged when nobody comments, likes or followers! I want it to be different for Amy, so please go check her blog out! You guys can do that, right??

Thanks for reading!

Until next time,

Haley

    1. Your welcome! I am so glad that you found encouragement in what I have said. I am by no means an expert in blogging, but I am happy that I was able to help you start your blogging journey. I do my best to encourage others, but really I wish to dedicate what I have said to the Lord, because without his help I would never be able to encourage others in the same way. I am glad for your support with MY blogging journey as well. It is always nice to have loving and caring blogging friends like you!
      I am honored to be one of your first blogging friends! Thank you for the kind words about me! I am certainly not encouraging, thoughtful and caring all the time, but I am trying my best.
      Thank you so much for the sweet comment, Amy!

    1. In reality it hasn’t been that long, but yes, I haven’t been present in the blogging world for some time. I am doing pretty well. As you probably read, I was doing Christian Youth In Action training. The training is intensive, which is why I haven’t been posting in the last while.
      Just so you are aware, this summer will be very busy for me and I will not be able to post as much. And when people comment, I probably won’t be able to respond right away. I don’t want you to think that I am ignoring you or anything, but please be aware that I cannot devote as much time to blogging this summer.
      Thank you for the nomination! I will try to do them at some point, but it probably won’t be right away. 😉
