This is me

Before we get started writing, allow me to introduce myself please. 

I am a simple girl who loves horses and is homeschooled with my two sisters and four brothers. If your jaw hasn't dropped at all my siblings then perhaps when you hear that we live in a two bedroom house, my sisters and I in one, my brothers in another, and drive a twelve passenger van it'll drop. No? Wow either your jaw is tough or you have an even bigger family than mine. Two dogs, a doberman named Athena and beagle Mix named Hunter, a crested gecko and occasional turtles and snakes and frogs make up our pets. I'll be in my last year of highschool next year and my brother is finishing highschool this year. I have an older sister and one niece. Yep, there's more of us, but don't worry, my little sister Ruth is the last one. Our age range from 2yrs to 28 years of age. Okay now your jaw has dropped, right? 
I have been homeschooled my whole life. We all have except my older sister. I wouldn't choose anyother kind of schooling if you paid me. It can be hectic at times but at the end of the day I've learned something new and that's all that matters. My favorite subject is science and actually math. I score an A in science and B in math which is pretty good since math doesn't always make sense but science comes natural. I enjoy grammar and obviously writing but literature and history bore me to death. I'm not sure about government since I have yet to take it but it's only three months so I'll survive either way. I get up between seven and eight in the morning and start off with math. My siblings eventually wake up too and we'll start doing chores,getting breakfast and beginning or finishing subjects. It gets kind of crazy with a five year old, seven year old and two year old but we work through it. Some days we finish school at four and other days we finish at six o'clock in the evening. It all depends on attitudes,subjects and how many errors we run in to. After math is grammar class. I'll be done with grammar this year and I finished my literature already. In science my older brother and I share a biology book. It's not that he's behind it's that I skipped a book and he didn't. Where I'm a science whiz my brother is a math whiz. He's super good. After science I'm done and will go do homework or experiments for my science. I recently did one but that's for later. My siblings are all in different grades but we've all skipped a few here and there. When I graduate highschool I plan on studying to become a DVM that specializes in horses and cattle at either Findlay University or MSU, although I'll probably attend MSU. 
My hobbies are all different and none consistent. When we go to the beach I collect unique sea shells. I enjoy going for one mile walks with our dog and my sister and I love to explore the woods for deer and other wildlife. When I'm cooped up in the house I write and draw pictures of horses. I'll read anything as long as the content is mild and wouldn't make your drunk and crude Uncle blush with shame. Oh, yes, and I adore horses. I have a drawer under my bed filled with horse books and more horse websites book marked than you have hair. I draw horses, read about horses, write about horses, dream about horses and, Oh, I ride a horse too. He isn't mine but he's a moody sweetheart and gorgeous too. I mean who doesn't like a buckskin with attitude? His name is Cody and he's a ten year old Quarter Horse gelding. He puts the 'u' in stubborn and will drive me crazy just for sport. But that's Okay because I'm fairly athletic when I want to be and more than wiling to take what he's got for me. His pasture buddy is a Thoroughbred gelding named Gentleman Jac and his 'big sister' is an Azteca mare named Rose. He shares his home with three cats and a dog and a crazy cat lady takes care of him. As feline obsessed as Julie is she's pretty nice since I ride for free as long as manure gets cleaned. I ride as often as I can but we're busy and my dad works 6am-6pm so my mom has to drop him off at work sometimes. 
Finally, we're Christians. I'll put that out there right now to save future offense that my transpire. We are Lutherans of Wisconsin synod. We use a Christian curriculum in school, attend church every Sunday and not ashamed of what we believe. 

Thanks for getting to know Me! I look forward to getting to know you and writing more each day or week!
