Do your research, dumby.

Just yesterday I blogged about Kony 2012.  It made me sick.. and still does.  But, do you ever wonder if it's all just a scam to make us mindlessly send them money? HELLO?!  I'm not saying this is a scam but you have to wonder.  After yesterday I noticed everybody getting excited and  into Kony 2012, especially youth.  If no one has realized yet, if you get the youth's mind involved then you'll be set to go... It's been that way since the beginning of time. Not to mention this has been going on for a long LONG time in lots of other country's... It's the world we live in, no matter how much we want to stop it, it's always going to be happening.   Please don't get me wrong,  It's wonderful  that I now know who Joseph Kony is and of course I want him to be arrested. Seriously though, he's hiding now... You can't do much when you're hiding.

Warning: Some crude language and I didn't listen to all 12 mins.

All I'm asking is you do your research.

Aside from everything I think it's great that they're standing up for something. I'll be out April 20th putting up posters and raising awareness... Maybe not as crazy as my fellow humans, but I will.

Kony 2012

I wish I had time to write about this and how much I feel for it. But I have to clean my room, or I will be slaughtered... Kind of like the kids in Africa.

One of my very good friends, Valerie, blogged about it so I'm going to redirect you there [steps of faith]: justice.

The very thought of all this makes me sick to my stomach.  Please join the cause and help make Kony famous.

Maverick Allen

I haven't blogged in forever...  My life has been up and down lately (Mostly up's!)
When John and Katherine came to visit last year I found out I was gonna be an aunt!  It wasn't until November (I think:) of last year I got to feel him kick for the first time... and believe me, he kicked HARD :)

While they were here, we got a 3D sonogram and got to see his adorable face!

On February 18th my nephew was born! His name is Maverick Allen. 8lbs 9oz 21 in!

(These are pictures of him)
Little bit after he has born

His cheeks are one of the cutest things about him!

I can't wait till I can meet him!
