2008-03-20T15:07:00.002-04:00

I have been quite busy the past few months. Like I mentioned earlier I have been going through a great coaching change. Which has been very difficult. However I have kept on skating and won two silver medals at a competition last week.

Today was our last day of school before spring break! :) Although, I thought I was going to be able to sleep in next week, I will be going to skating camp bright and early in the mornings! From 7am till 7pm, Monday-Friday next week. I can't wait! I will also be taking one of my U.S. figure skating tests on the 31st. I have a competition, on the 5th, and on the 11th and 12th I have skating shows to preform in. Very busy! I am though quite excited to be skating to my newest program to the tune of "Ave Maria".

Well thats about all!

Love Katelynn

Sorry :)

2008-02-10T15:49:00.000-05:00

Sorry I have not posted in forever! Our computer crashed and we just recieved our new hard-drive from the computer company. So yes, I have a good excuse! :)

The school is going great. We are all very excited to be having such success! It's worked out wonderfully!

Skating....... well skating is fine. I just found out a couple of weeks ago that my coach, whom I and my family are very close to, is leaving in April. Her husband is in the Air Force and is being transferred. :( Very sad.

Home..... My dads health has improved and the little ones (the puppys) are crazy and goofy all the time! :)

Well thats about it! :)

Salchow!

2007-12-05T18:59:00.000-05:00

Yellow! I have decided to play a song called "Anew" for my piano recital. Its going to be hard for I have broken my hand. On Tuesday I was in a lesson with my coach and I was practicing my double Salchow, (Try saying that 1o x fast!) I kept falling, due to just learning the jump, and I kept falling on my left hand and after the 13Th time It began to swell up and I went to the ER. Henceforth broken. So what a bummer! Well I did get one good thing out of the whole thing: A DOUBLE SALCHOW! YEA!
As you can tell I am pretty happy! Well God Bless!

Mr. Interesting

2007-10-23T20:53:00.000-04:00

By request I will describe this very "Interesting" person I met. Well actually it was not the first time I have met him. I first met him when the McEntire family came to my skating show. (Now remember the McEntires are the family that's kids are like my little brothers and sisters. The kids names are Gabby, Naomi, and Josh.) So at my show Mr. McEntire brought his parents, who were visiting from New York, to the show also, and his parents brought Mr. McEntires cousin with them. So this interesting person is the cousin, I will not say his name instead I will refer to him as Joe. So anyway Joe immediately for some unknown reason found that he liked me alot, and no offence and I have to say it, but he is a big NERD! lol. Anyway he said to me like ten times in the 5 mins I saw him "You were ecstatic Katelynn" and not only did he say it he said it like three inches from my face. Creepy! Anyway Joe and the McEntires and my mom went for a quick walk around the fair while I got ready for my next show. And my Mom said Joe did nothing the entire 30 min walk except drill her with questions about me. So anyway me, my mom, and Mr. and Mrs. McEntire thought this kind of funny and joked around about it (they think he is nerd to), and I thought I would not have to see him for a while. Well my bad. Last Sunday as I came down from Sunday school and there he was standing in the sanctuary. I ran all the way back upstairs to were Mrs. McEntire was and said "You could have given me a warning" She immediately knew what I was talking about and said "I thought you knew!" I was like "No!". So anyway I had to go to service and after service we had fellowship dinner, and he sat with me, Katherine, Emily, Jacob (my bro), and a boy named Coy. And Joe sat the entire time and named science facts, and even showed us how he can put his leg behind his head. Nuff said about that lunch! Anyway after lunch he followed me everywhere but I was nice to him and talked to him but it was kind of annoying. So in the end this "interesting" person was very INTERESTING! I hate to spread rumurs but belive me its true!

Amazing Grace

2007-10-22T15:13:00.000-04:00

Amazing grace how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost,
but now am found,
Was blind,
But now I see.

Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,
And grace my fears relieved;
How precious did that grace appear,
The hour I first believed!

Thro' many dangers,
Toils and snares,
I have already come;
'Tis grace has brought me safe thus far,
And grace will lead me home.

And when this flesh and heart shall fail,
And mortal life shall cease,
I shall possess within the veil,
A life of joy and peace.

Whaen we've been there ten thousand years,
Bright shining as the sun,
We've no less days,
To sing Gods Praise,
Than when we've first begun.
A-men
John newton, 1779

2007-10-21T18:42:00.000-04:00

Tomorrow I am going to go to my moms work, then go to work then skate.... and that's pretty much it... boring I know! :) Anywho thats it sorry it was so boring. :) Write soon!

Got Faith?

Yellow!

2007-10-20T16:54:00.000-04:00

Hello everybody! I am sooooo sorry I have not written in a really, really, really long time. :) Whats new with me? Good Question! Well lets start were I left of last time I posted....

This year for the first time in my entire life I am going to a school. Its a Private multi-family-co-ap school, it is run like a real school. We have school uniforms, rules and all kinds of teachers. I have two classmates in my class, which means there is a lot more pressure because the teachers don't have so many students to check on. I go to school 4 times a week from 9:00 a.m. - 3:00 p.m. Also I have the highest grades in the school, except for one test! I love School!

This year I am also teaching and working at the ice rink. I teach three times a week. I teach the 2-9 years old kids. Sooooo cute! I love teaching the one thing that I have been commented on is how patient I am with the students, there are a lot of teachers who don't have the Patience for it. I love it!

The lat time I posted I said I had fractured my foot. At the time I thought I did, but we later found out from X-rays that I was born with my right foot fractured. Bazaar I know! But I found out yesterday that I am not allowed to jump on or off the ice for 2 weeks, for I have a uncommon ankle disease which has only been seen one other time before and according to my doctor he saw the other person who had it and mine is way worse than the other persons. So basically I have to stay off my foot for 2 weeks to see if the pain I am having goes away. If it does not, which he says there is a 95% chance that it will not go away, then he will do a surgery in march on both feet to remove the bone that is causing the disease. Very scary, but it is all in the Lords hands.

Well anywho this weekend I am going to a lady's retreat in PA. I cant wait!
Katherine and Emily are coming to, which will make it extra fun!

Well That is all I have to write and I will post again hopefully soon!

:) KaTeLyNn DuNlAp

Sorry!

2007-08-02T18:07:00.000-04:00

Anyway we had my Skating show Everyday and had to ride in the parade Every day, quite frankly I am sick of the fair, especially after doing are skating show 28 times in a row. Also the last day, right after our last show, I fractured my foot. We go to the doc tomorrow, so please pray for that. We also get to go to Katherines dinner party tomorrow.

Well anyway we spent the ENTIRE day at the beach, with Coy and his family, that was fun. Anyway nothing new! See ya!

Well anywho back in the on earth.... My brothers surgery went o.k. they had to shoot pins in his arm with a nail gun looking thing, and when they shot the pins in they went in wrong and they had to pull them back out again, and shoot in new ones. OUCH! Please pray for him as he recovers, but it is all in the Lords hands.

Pray for my Dad for he has found out that he is a diabedic, and that the blood in his legs is not moving, but they gave him meds and the blood is know moving, also praise that the doctors found out that blood clots moved thru his heart and lungs and he survived, with is un usal when something like that happens. So praise for that for it is by only by Gods grace he is still with us.

Well I must go, if it is the Lords will I will write sooooon!

Poor Jacob!

2007-06-17T17:15:00.000-04:00

Friday was a long day!!! After our 5:00 appointment in Wilmington, we came home after a trip to the Wilmington mall, and Jacob brake his wrist in two places, and we had to rush him to the hospital. He will under go surgery tommorrow, because they could not fix his wrist. So please pray for him. If you are wondering how he broke it he was throwing a ball up in the air outside and he fell backward and put his hand back and twisted and then it snapped. *Shutters*. So please pray for him, so his pain will be small after his surgery.

~Katelynn

2007-06-14T20:16:00.000-04:00

Welcome back Estes family!!! We missed you!

Anywho, tommorrow I have a skating lesson in Wilmington (if you dont know its about an hour and a half drive from were I live) the lesson is at 7:45 in the morning! We ahave to pick up my cousin at 5:45, so I have to leave my house at 5:30, meaning I would have to get up at 5:00, In the MORINING, and I am not an early bird! So pray for our trip tommorrow, for my mom being tierd and driving on the highway at 5:30, is not a good combo. Also me being so tierd and being on skates lets hope I dont run into the wall. lol. But its all in the Lords hands.

Anyway, on top of that I have brand NEW skating boots (Got them on tuesday). If you have ever seen the movie Ice Princess welcome to a skaters reality, Blisters, cuts, blister, cuts, and did I mention blisters?

Well anyway I better go, since I have to get up so earily. I am yawning already.

"Yaks!" said Jacob
"Yes thats all you do yak,yak,yak!" Coy replied
"Nuh-uh!" yelled back Jacob
" This is what your doing, this is what you need to do!" Said Coy in a sassy way
"Speaking of yaks." Katelynn said to herself walking across the mountain until she stopped short. The mountain went straight down. Jacob and Coy were completly, and kept walking, until:
"Whatchout!" Screamed Katelynn
Coy stopped short but Jacob went traveling down the hill
"Jacob!" yelled Coy down to him, as Jacob was rolling down the hill "Stop"
"Coy he is rolling down the hill at full speed, and your going to ask him to stop!" said Katelynn to Coy acting quite worried.
Coy and Katelynn jumped down the ledges trying to get to Jacob. When they reached the bottom they found.....

Fishing with an Estes

2007-06-03T14:50:00.000-04:00

Sorry, I have not written in a while. We have to run a phone line from our computer to the telaphone, and our new puupy, Giambi bit a bunch of holes in the wire and it would not work.

Anyway been really busy with skating practice, (we have three shows on saturday), finishing school, babysitting, and the everyday stuff.

Also fishing. In case you did'nt know we live on a big lake, and on thursday, Abby (Katherine and Emilys little sis) and her dad came over, (Her dad had to fix our Hot-Tub) and Abby wanted to go fishing. So me and Abby, Jacob (my bro), and Brittany(my lil cousin) all went out in the boat. It was soooo funy, Abby has never been in a boat and she was not afraid at all! She tried leaning to one side to make the boat go on its side, she wanted to pick up a turtl out of the water, (I think it was a snapping turtle.) she wanted to touch or pick up everything, and eventually convinced me to let her steer the moter, we almost crashed into the dock. :)
It was really interesting!

Well Write later! (If Giambi is a good boy!)

To Glorify and Enjoy Him

2007-04-09T11:22:00.000-04:00

Q. What authority from God directs us how to glorify and enjoy Him?

A. The only authority for glorifying and enjoying Him is the bible, wich is the word of God and is made up of the old and new testaments.

Our primary purpose is to glorify God and to enjoy Him. But how do we do that? Where can we find out how to do it? The only one who really knows how to glorify God, is God himself. He is the only one who can tell us how to glorify Him.
God could have spoken to us in any way He chose. He has chosen to speak to us through His word, the bible. Everything we need to know about God in order to glorify Him and enjoy Him is found in its pages. If we were to ask someone how to glorify God or if we were to look it up in a book other than the bible, we could not be sure we were getting right information. But we can trust the bible because it is the word of God, who is never wrong. Read 2 Timothy 3:16-17.

I Dont Covet...

2007-04-05T20:07:00.000-04:00

Many times I have heard people tell me they dont covet, here is a true example, once I was at a skating comp. and a friend and fellow skater of mine, told me that she had only coveted once in her hole life, I immedietly told her that we covet tons of times every day. A few moments later me and her were walking and she saw a girl with a very pretty skating dress on. my friend turned to me and said "I wish I had that dress! Its beutiful" I immediatly took the opertunity to show her that she had just coveted. She was amazed at exactly how many times we covet every day! Put this to thought and think about it the next time you desire somthing!

Training Hearts and Teaching minds

2007-04-04T15:18:00.000-04:00

Q. What is mans primary purpose?

A. Mans primary purpose is to glorify God and to enjoy him forever.

What happens when you use for a purpose other than its real purpose? For example, what if you wanted whiter teeth, so you tried to brighten them up with white sho polish? Would it work? Of course not! Sho polish is for shoes not teeth. What would happen if you put marshmellows in the toaster? You would have a terribal mess or a fire, because a toaster is for toasting bread not marshmellows. Things work best when we use them for the purpose they were intended.

God had a purpose in mind for human beings when He created them. God intended for people to knpw and enjoy Him. Rocks and trees and kittens cannot enjoy God- but people can!

Read Psalm 16:11. This verse describes the joy and the pleasure people have in God when they live according to there purpose God has for them. Some people live as though thier purpose was to have a good time or make a lot of money. People like this are never satisfied. They find that the joy of fun times or having new things wears off. That is because they are not living according to the purpose God has for them. When we live to enjoy God, we are doing what God made us to do and our joy in Him will last.

Please Read:

Little Elsi sat sadly looking at her dear papa laying on the sofa on sunday afternoon, his face was pale and sad looking, she had been his constant nurse all day, making sure his every desire and request was granted. Even though Elsi was only eight she loved the dear lord with all her heart soul and mind. She also loved her dear papa. Elsie sat for a very long time looking at him, until she wisperd in an uneasy voice to him:

"Papa, may I read to you?"
" Yes my daughter." said her papa tierdly

Elsi jumped up and ran to the mantal and picked up her dear little bible wich she cherished more than anything. After about an hour of reading to him, her papa said,

"Thats quite enough now darling, please go over to my desk and pick up my novel, and read a chapter or two to me, please." he said kindly
"Oh, papa I cannot!"cried Elsie
"Elsie"her papa said sternly "you must always do as I permit"
"But papa it is the sabbath!" She said almost in a whisper
"Your point" he said crossly
"Papa, the bible says to not speak or do anything that is not glorifying to him on his day!" she said with a quiver in her voice
"Elsie, I will not have a rebelliouse child in my sight, for the bible tells children to honor her parents, you must leave my sight until you can come to me and say that you always obey me in everything that I permit!" he said almost in a shout."
"Oh papa no! I will die If I cant be by you! you are my only parent!" She cried
"Elsie I do not want to see you until you do as I permit! I will not break my word!" he said crossly

Elsi ran to her room and wept, for she would never see her papa again, for she could not disobey Gods command, she wept silently and prayed to God that her papa would come to Christ!

Who do you agree with? Elsie or Papa? Comment your answer!

Anyway I am very sad that the rink will close next week, but have agreed to do a summer show with the rink, and wil be preforming at are local De, state fair, are local mall, and carnaval, The Cancer group meetings, and a-lot more, it will be fun though to do it with all my skating friends, whom I am constantly witnessing to!

Come Ye Sinners

2007-04-02T12:21:00.000-04:00

By Matthew Smith

Come, ye sinners poor and Wreched,
Weak and wounded, sick and sore,
Jesus, ready, stands to save you,
full of pity, joined with power,
He is able, He is able,
He is willing, doubt no more.

Come ye needy, come and welcome,
God's free bounty glorify,
True belief and true repentance,
Every grace that brings you nigh.
without money, without money,
Come to Jesus Christ and buy.

Lo! The incarnate God, ascended,
Pleads the merit of His blood,
Venture on him, Venture Wholly,
Let no other trust intrude.
None but Jesus, none but Jesus,
Can do helpless sinners good.

Hope you enjoyed this and bring it to thought!
