Silly Max!


For all those who have been to my house, you know I have a cat named Max. Who, by the way, is only the cutest, cuddliest, pudgy baby that loves his mommy (me...tee hee) to death. Anyways, I decided to create a post showing just exactly how adorable he is. Enjoy :)

Don't stick your tongue out! How rude! LoL :) I can't believe I caught that on film. So funny!!

Don't give me that look!

He loves to sleep with shoes. Why exactly is beyond me. But hey, he's so cute when he does!!


I find it funny that he's practically twisted in half, yet still comfy.

Aaaaah!! Run for your life! It's ROBO KITTY!!!


What are you looking at?

Hmmm...can tissue paper really be that comfortable?


He is clearly exhausted, you know...not having to do anything all day long.



Just hanging out ;)



Max loves cheese, so I decided to feed him some shredded cheddar on video. ADORABLE!!

As you can see, he is only the cutest kitty in the whole wide world. Hope you liked it!

St. Louis Fun

Yes, it has taken me a while...okay FOREVER to update my blog. But, here you go. These are pictures from my marching band trip to St. Louis in October. *name has been super secretly disguised. Shh!!

Ooh...black and white. Dramatic :)


Did you catch the Build a Bear bags? Hey now! You are NEVER to old to make your own teddy bear. I am a firm believer that stuffed animals fix EVERYTHING :)


Here's a new face. That's Margo Higglebottom* in the middle.

Sittin' pretty in the city. I remember, those rocks were REALLY cold...just felt like sharing that with you.




I love the fact that even the St. Louis Zoo has school spirit. Sweet action! (In case you didn't get it, my high school's mascot is a pirate. That's why I took this pic.)



Don't you just love the random guy in the background staring at the camera?



Don't you just wanna pick him up and give him a hug? Er...well...not exactly. Can you SEE those claws? Yow!



Seals are so cute!...and wet.



Whoa! Talk about pink!


Not quite as pink, but still gorgeous!



We were so close to this bird...I'm surprised he didn't go all psycho crazy on us :0




Me and Tilly. I just love that red tree. Gorgeous!!




This also my profile pic. My bestie is the bestest :)



Smile for the camera!




Sigh...I just love Autumn. The leaves are so pretty.





Say cheese!


Spread the love :)



Hmm...black with white stripes, or white with black stripes? The world may never know.




No...that rock won't move. No matter how much you stare at it.


Just taking a little cat nap. Or...big cat nap.



"Hey, hey she's a monkey! And people say she monkeys around!"




How rude!


Just chillin' with the seals :)




Me and my bestest friend Mildred Gooberfink*. So silly!

Ooh! Pretty!


It's Tilly Amberstein*! Love her!!


This was behind a waterfall in the gorilla habitat. Cool, huh?

This bear cracks me up. He paced back and forth like that FOREVER!

Elizabeth Sweetsong's Top 10 Family Friendly Movies

For all you movie buffs out there (including myself), I have compiled a list of my top ten kid-friendly movies. Enjoy :)

10) Horton Hears a Who!- The theory of "all people are people, no matter how small", makes this a funny, kid-pleasing movie with a message.

9) Saving Sarah Cain- An inspirational story of love, family, and putting others first. A definite tear-jerker.

8) Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium- A funny story of of friendship, toys, and music. Kids will love it.

7)Facing the Giants- A film for football lovers and movie junkies alike. Built around the saying "all things are possible with God", it's sure to touch the hearts of all ages.

6) Night at the Museum 1 and 2- Laugh-out-loud comedies about haywire museum exhibits and the clever nightguard that watches them. Sure to make anyone laugh.

5) Extreme Days- A story of four friends that go on a road trip and find themselves in some wacky situations. Absolutely hilarious!

4) Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs- "It's a bird! It's a plane! It's...a meatball?" A cooky comedy of gigantic proportions and a silly way to show that everyone should follow their dreams.

3) Good Burger- A funny Nickelodeon movie that gives new meaning to the word "competition". A must-see.

2) Fireproof- From the makers of Facing the Giants comes a romance like no other. Two thumbs-up.

1) Up- A cute and sweet story of a man trying to fulfill his wife's life-long dream. With his two tag-alongs, Russel and Doug, Carl learns the true meaning of adventure. Best movie from Pixar, by far.

There you have it. Ten fantastic movies. So get in that car, drive to the nearest Blockbuster, and enjoy!

Verse of the day- "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved." -Romans 10:13
Quote of the Day- Sometimes God calms the storm. Sometimes God lets the storm rage, but calms His child.

We'll Miss You SC!

Hey guys. I know, I know. I haven't blogged in forever. Get over it. This is not really a funny entry. One of my very best friends moved away this year just in time to start school in Kansas City. We miss her very very much and we hope she knows it. So, from all of us in band, you are missed and loved girl!! Hope you are having fun up there. Here's a video for you. Enjoy :)


I hope you're crying SC. Lord knows I did when I was making it. But hey, let's be happy. Come see us at a competition as soon as you can!! And to everyone else, if you're not in band, you may not like that video as much. That's cool. Hope you all had a great summer.

Luv to all, Elizabeth :)

hawknelson22's Top 20 Videos



Da da da da da da DAAAAAA! Welcome, faithful viewers to the first June post! (applause) Thank you...no please, stop it! Okay. Today's blog blab is my fav top 20 vids. Actually, I have a lot of favorites, so I just picked 20 good ones. Deal with it. Btw, they aren't rated according to how good they are. They're just in random order. Let me know what ya liked. ENJOY :)

We'll start at number 20. And it is "Who I am Hates Who I've Been" by Relient K! Whoooo! Congrats guys! You've made it to the bottom of a pointless blog's top 20 countdown. But seriously, these guys are pretty cool. Just watch.






And at #19 we have..."I Can Only Imagine" by MercyMe! Awesome song.







#18...Jeremy Camp with "Speaking Louder than Before". Yay! He's amazing.








#17 is an awesome song by Hawk Nelson. Who else? Here they are with "Friend Like That". Check it out.






#16 is Red with "Already Over". If you don't really like rock, I'm gonna warn you that this is definitely a rock song. But it's Christian. Give it a try. See what you think. I like it.


And coming in at #15 is Barlowgirl with "Never Alone". Here it is.




Kutless takes #14 with "Shut Me Out". Take it away boys. (tee hee)











And for you pop\rock people out there, at #13, here's "The Difference" by Philmont. Love it!










Coming in at #12 is one of my all-time fav bands. For all you awesome people that know who this is, here's Skillet with "Comatose".










Alright. Time to get REALLY pop rock. At #11, here's Stellar Kart with "Activate".










#10 is Tenth Avenue North with "Hold My Heart". Not a real video, but it's still an amazing song. Roll it.





Alrighty. Some more rock for you cool people. Just kidding. Everyone's cool in their own way. Wow, I sound like a therapist. Anyways, at #9 here's Thousand Foot Krutch with "Rawkfist". RAWK ON!










Down to #8. The music video's not so great but the song is so incredible. Here she is, Miley Cyrus with "The Climb".












Here's Demi Lovato at #7 with "La La Land". Good message. Don't change yourself cuz people want you to.








Let's get country. Here's a slower song by Taylor Swift. At #6, it's "Crazier".











Okey doke. Mellow time. Here's the amazing Leeland at #5 with "Sound of Melodies".







Here's a song for those super chics (ha ha). Here's "We Live" by Superchic at #4. Enjoy!













Try not to pass out girls. At #3, here's "Inseparable" by none other than the Jonas Brothers. Again, not a real video. Oh well.












Now, this song is by a band that pretty much makes their living by being dorks. Don't say I didn't warn you. Coming in at #2 it's "Radiator" by Family Force 5. (and no...this video is not from the 80's. hard to believe right?)













And our number one video is (drumroll please)...........................are you drum-rolling? Fine then. Here it is..."Unbreakable" by Fireflight!!!!! Woo hoo! Yay! Yeah! (balloons, confetti, celebration, blah blah blah). Here you go. Happy listening!


Well...what'd ya think? If you didn't like them, that's okay. Some of them are pretty rocky. Or just plain weird. Whatever you want. Let me know if you liked anything in your comments.
Love to all, Elizabeth :)
