I remember when I first got a blog and I had welcoming messages from all my new followers. My next big step was the A-Z Challenge and although I'm not an avid writer I enjoyed the challenge of having to think of something new each day and I still wrote posts on our day off! After that I had quite a number of regular viewers for a few months and then........... <div><br />
</div><div><br />
</div><div><br />
</div><div><br />
</div><div><br />
</div><div>Yep, a whole lot of nothing! I would write maybe once a month and not even get one comment because I knew my blog wasn't even worth looking at!</div><div>After my fresh post start I'm hoping that I can attract all my followers to start looking at my blog again :)</div><div>I PROMISE I will TRY and write about once a week, always reply to comments (ovbiously) and regularly update!</div><div><br />
</div><div>Pleaseeeee come back!</div><div>Until next time...</div>Ruthiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05174182759912098492noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3313926635586601154.post-89720253686513583772011-08-24T11:42:00.000-07:002011-08-24T11:42:11.515-07:00A bit of a clean up, a fresh start ♥As you can see my blog has a new look!<br />
<div><br />
</div><div>Not that I disliked my old one but I think it just needed to change. My first thought was to make a new blog, but my dad said that I shouldn't just get a new one when I have spent so long getting this one right!</div><div><br />
</div><div>I had to think about it because I know my blog hadn't had many views in a while. But then I realised the absoloute ovbious, that was because I hadn't posted in while! DUH!<br />
<br />
Well, I hope you're all superduper excited for my next post!XXX</div>Ruthiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05174182759912098492noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3313926635586601154.post-81928507662996694332011-06-19T01:53:00.000-07:002011-06-19T01:53:50.519-07:00Dadddyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!♥♥♥♥Today is Fathers Day, so here's to John Teal...<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: right; margin-left: 1em; text-align: right;"><tbody>

</div><div>John Teal is amazingly creative, these are his own words: <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">'<span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 20px;">Creativity seems to manifest itself in so many different ways. I have read about films, cookery, model making, and life in general. Even when the blogs are not about a creative activity, the blog itself is creative !'</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 20px;"><br />
</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 20px;">My dad and I once had a compotition to see how many followers we could get during the A-Z Challenge.

</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 20px;">This year my reply was something like "Well, I'm ovbiously gonna get you something, so either tell me what you want or I will just get you something useless that you don't want or need."</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 20px;"><br />
</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 20px;">He replied: "Party Rings."</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 20px;"><br />

I really love the background I chose because it fits in with my life.. but then something my grandad commented about gave me an excellent idea to design my own background of a doodle. So don't think you have come to the wrong blog when the background has yet again changed in a few days time!<br />

First, gather your ingredients which are simply Oreo's, cream cheese and white chocolate!<br />

You then melt some white chocolate (in the microwave or on the hob, your choice!). And roll the now solid balls into the chocolate...<br />

-New Moon<br />
-Eclipse<br />
-Breaking Dawn<br />
<br />
Why is this relevant? Is probably what you are thinking !<br />
<br />
Well last week was my half term so I decided to start to read them all again.<br />
<br />
The picture above doesn't really do them justice. If you have read the books (which you probably have!), you will know how thick they are! I'm not a slow reader but I am not an amazingly fast reader either.. it took me all week just to read Twilight! I am now about a third of the way through New Moon after starting it on Saturday night.<br />
<br />
The only book I read before the film was Breaking Dawn. The first part comes out in the cinemas on the 18th November here in the UK.<br />
<br />
Here is the amazing trailer:<br />

I'm back in the blogging world, my little blogging bubble and it feels weird.<br />
<br />
I definitely got into the habit of blogging, I really enjoy it too. Then recently time has been running away from me and before I knew it I hadn't post for more than a week!<br />
<br />
Well, you must be thinking what could I be doing that keeps me soooo busy?!<br />
<br />
<a href="https://www.familysearch.org/volunteer/indexing">INDEXING!!!</a><br />
<br />
<a href="https://www.familysearch.org/sites/all/themes/frankie/images/still_saving_records.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="180" src="https://www.familysearch.org/sites/all/themes/frankie/images/still_saving_records.jpg" width="320" /></a><br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
I've caught the indexing bug!<br />
<br />
For those of you that don't know, it's pretty much like word verification. But on an image that has been sort of scanned in.<br />
<br />
Why not give it a go?<br />
You don't have to be an expert, or a church member, or a family history genius.... you just have to be willing to give some of your time to do some indexing.<br />

<br />
Last year in the Summer holidays, my brother and I went to the zoo in Blackpool with our Nana and <a href="http://www.petesboats.blogspot.com/">Grandad</a>.<br />
<br />
The zoo has loads of animals- giraffes, monkeys, snakes, lions, meerkats and much more!<br />
<br />
We saw lots of funny animals including Chimpanzees that act so human-like it is untrue!<br />
<br />
This is a picture of the MASSIVE tortoise we saw:<br />

<br />
<br />
It took us about an hour to get there.... but it was worth the wait!<br />
<br />
<br />
<------ Wowwwwww!!!<br />

Blackpool isn't just good for the zoo, it has many other attractions including the pleasure beach and blackpool tower. Don't forget... the beach!<br />
<br />
After we visited the zoo, we headed to the carvery right next the sea. It was lovely food!<br />
<br />
Thank you Nana and Grandad, I can always count on you for a great day out!<br />

I sit with my family in our living room eating a take away and watching the amazing show!<br />
<br />
This may seem off topic, but there seems to be a buzz going around that is: Twitter or Facebook? (which are you?)<br />
<br />
Not being a Facebook user (as I am under age) I can't answer this, but I know a few things that puts Twitter on top for me:<br />
<br />
-On Facebook, someone has to accept you as a friend before you can see their status updates<br />
-On Twitter, you can just follow whoever and immediately see their tweets!<br />
<br />
Here are some of the X Factor stars that I have on twitter:<br />
@JLSOfficial (JLS)<br />
@ollyofficial (Olly Murs)<br />
@alexandramusic (Alexandra Burke)<br />
@NiallOfficial (Niall off One Direction)<br />
@zaynmalik (Zayn off One Direction)<br />
@matt_cardle_uk (Matt Cardle)<br />
@Real_Liam_Payne (Liam off One Direction)<br />
@TheXFactor (The X Factor)<br />
@onedirection (One Direction)<br />
@Harry_Styles (Harry off One Direction)<br />
@Mr_Grimshaw (Aiden Grimshaw)<br />
<br />
Here is One Direction back stage in their new Pokemon advert... Pokemon just got a whole lot more popular!<br />

<br />
It is an ABBA song,<br />
<br />
Which is also a Mamma Mia song,<br />
<br />
And it also a French phrase meaning 'Do you want'.<br />
<br />
The reason this post is Voulez Vous is because the song has been in my head all week! Mainly because I am going to watch Mamma Mia the musical on Friday and I am really excited so I keep singing the Mamma Mia songs.<br />
<br />
In my French class last year we had to compose our own version of the song Voulez Vous because we had just learnt the phrase. I can't really remember my groups and my old French book is in the bin!<br />

I love this song:)<br />
<br />
Everyone I have talked to that have seen the musical have said it is much better, I can't wait!!!<br />
<br />
Have you seen it?<br />

</div><div style="text-align: left;">On the 29th of this month Prince William and Catherine Middleton will be married. It is my first royal wedding and I am very excited! When my mum and dad were little they used to have street parties and hang up triangle flags along their roads, I wish we were having one! It said on the news that people from all over the world will be watching the royal wedding, not just from the UK. The newspaper has the plan for the whole day in, the ceremony will be taking place at 11am.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
