Life at the Kellums

I'm so sorry it's taken me so long. I have things on my heart
I want to share at times, but it's so detailed and long and I
don't want to start typing it all down then lose it again.

So, anyway. God has helped me. I have completed the classroom
part of my CNA program and am getting ready to start clinicals.
I have been doing my writing, and enjoying it so. Right now it is
easier to write stories than to write heartfelt messages. I try to do
that through my writing.

Helping with Ryan keeps us on our toes! He is three now. I usually
spend my days helping with him, sneaking in what time I can to
write more of my stories, and doing errands. Which, I really enjoy
driving and running errands.

We had an enjoyable Christmas Day together as a family. I'll try to
post those later. I enjoyed my gifts. Got four Beauty and the Beast
themed gifts, and five new books, including Dr. Lesslie's newest one!

This post won't all be in order.

 

Dad was looking forward to this moment!

 

Partial cast reunion from Sue Thomas FBEye. No I wasn't

there.

 

 

Playing with Ryan

 

 

Yes! When I got this Kingdom Hearts keychain for Christmas,

I instantly decided to put it on my new Bible cover.

White Pellets

My night pictures almost never do it justice, but tonight
we were blessed with our very first snow of the season! It's
so pretty, especially as we sat around watching Christmas
movies and filling out Christmas cards. Can't believe
Christmas is only three days away.

It's awful that Christmas means sadness to some people
because of some loss in their lives, present of past. I hope
that somehow you can still find joy in the season of hope!

KINGDOM HEARTS III – D23 2017 Toy Story Trailer

YES!!! Toy Story will be in Kingdom Hearts 3! I am thrilled. We were wondering
what new worlds would be put in it, and I kept saying, "They have to put Toy Story
in there somewhere! If they don't, I am going to be very disappointed." You should've
seen me the day I found this! I squealed with delight so hard and practically
sprang out of my chair. I ran to Annah's room to tell her and she was
excited too. Looking forward to this game when it comes out. Can't wait
to see what will become of Aqua, Terra, and Ven!

BTW, I am planning a big blog update later this week on what's been going
on with us! I'm a writer, and sometimes I like to write deep things, but putting
it on the blog is so time-consuming. But then, just a bunch of random posts
feels blah. So, Lord willing, I will have a new blog update later this week!

Love, Rebecca

THE MAN WHO INVENTED CHRISTMAS | Official Trailer | In theaters November 22

I am so looking forward to this movie! Since watching Beauty and the
Beast, I've wanted to watch Dan Stevens in a new movie. But it's more than
that: he is portraying the great Charles Dickens. He is playing the role of a
writer. I watched the trailer, watched him trying to perfect his characters,
coming up with them, who they are, that terrible writer's block, being in
his element. When I watched the trailer, I'm like, "Yep. Oh, yes! I know how
that feels. I want to see this movie!!" I love, love, love writing. Can't wait.

I know that Charles Dickens is not the person who invented Christmas-in case
anyone should start any controversies about it-. And to be honest, A Christmas
Carol is not my favorite Christmas story. Every version I've watched has been
scary to me, even the old cartoon Mickey's Christmas Carol. But this is different.

Remember

Let's not forget what happened 16 years ago today. I remember it was
a beautiful, bright day exactly like this one. I was ten-years-old.
Thankfully, my family and I did not lose any friends or loved
ones that day, but countless others did. Be sure to take at least
a moment today to remember those who sacrificed their lives
in order to save others, those pulled together to offer comfort to
each other, those who lived to tell, and those endured tragic loss.

Remember 9/11, 2001.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 





 



May in Review

I haven't forgotten you. I have been very, very
busy writing my stories on Fanfiction and am having a blast.
I'm still in the process of getting registered for the CNA
training program, Lord willing. I still have other reviews
I plan to do for Beauty and the Beast live-action film.
Ryan is just growing and talking more, very cute!
Hope this update is good.





Ryan before he got his haircut. He sure does enjoy McDonald's.

 

 

He was happy to get this book from a garage sale.

 

 

Playing at a farm. Some people had a big gathering for foster

families. Ryan had a blast.

 

 

Watching Dad with a fish.

 

 

 

 

Somebody likes to imitate Dad!

 

 

 

Icing. Yum!



 

 

Annah made me a cake to celebrate...

 

 

It's official! With God's help, I passed my

driving test! I have my license now! And

driving has been great.

 

 



I can't believe we have a swing-set now.

 

 





Happy Mother's Day!

 



Some friends invited us to Six Flags, where

we haven't been since I was 11!

 

Waiting in line for Thunder River on a hot day.

 

And waiting...and waiting...

 

 

 











FINALLY!!

 

That is me exactly! Sadly, I am not a patient

person, and these were my thoughts even before

I found this picture.

 

Shopping at Barnes & Noble, playing with a

golden retriever puppy at Petland, and going

to ColdStone Creamery for my birthday!
