I'm leaving...//New blog!

Hey everyone!
So I've decided not to continue with the Lilies of Grace blog. I just can't think of very many posts for this blog, and I feel the need for a fresh start...
But I've decided to start a new blog, and it would mean so much to me if you would check it out, and share it! Here's the link: Sparkly Ambitions 
Thanks!
Have a beautifully blessed day!

Summer Posts: Need ideas! ;)

Hey everyone!
I'm finally almost done with the school year!!!
All I have left is some math. I know I haven't been posting lately. I have been really busy with a lot of stuff including lots of studying for my past tests.
So here's what I want to know:
What would you like to see me post about this summer??
I am going to have extra time on my hands and I'm hoping to use some of that time to become a better blogger, since I haven't been really good at it lately.
I already have some ideas about what I could post about, but I would like to hear what you have to say. Any input would be very much appreciated! :)
Thank you! I can't wait to hear from you!
You can comment it below, or if you would prefer to share through email, you can email me at earthykatie@gmail.com 
Have a beautifully blessed day!

I have compiled a list of really fun ideas to do over the summer, and I thought I'd share it! Feel free to add ideas; I'm always open to more! ;)

1. Go Stargazing! Whether it's just in your backyard, or out in the open, just take a night to enjoy the beautiful night sky God created.

2. Draw a chalk mural on a sidewalk or your patio.

3. Create a dance routine.

4. Make the ultimate ice cream sundae!

5. Start a garden.

6. Go on a nature hike.

7. Go to the library and choose out a good book to read. And then make a day out of reading it. Relax outside or inside if it's raining, enjoy some lemonade, and enjoy!

8. Have an overnight movie marathon with all of your favourites!

9. Cloud watch

10. Catch lightning bugs.

11. Swap favourite books with a friend.

To be honest, I just was thinking of pretty names and testing them to see if they were taken! :)

11.The author of your favorite book just showed up at your front door, Who is it? Whats your reaction?

Well, Erin Hunter is the author of warrior cats, and that's just actually a pen name for 3 authors who work together to write the books. I have no clue what they look like so I'd be wonder why there were 3 strangers standing at our door, BUT if I did happen to recognize them, I'd be asking them to sign every single warrior cat book I own! ;)

Yep! I have 2 younger siblings, a brother and a sister. 

13. What is the best vacation memory that you have? 

Probably our vacations in disney world. We had a lot of good times there!

I have no clue at all! I like WAY too many songs to even possibly choose one! :) 

15. You have to spent the rest of your life on an island, you can only ask for one thing besides clothes and food. What is it? Or who?

WOW! This is hard! Well, I can't take my whole family, so....maybe a communication device to I can keep in touch with my family and friends! 

16. If you could pick one place to stay for the rest of your life, where and why? 

I'm really not sure...Hmmm...I'm not sure! :)

17. What is your dream vacation?

Explore the White House!
