Father's Day (1 Day Early) 2013

So, Sundays are the busiest days of the week. Seriously. There's church at 9:30, then (maybe) go to the mall for lunch and some groceries, then back home and do whatever 'til about 3:15. THEN we get ready to go to a meeting up at the International school. After that (about 5:30), I have soccer (sometimes my siblings do) 'til 6:45/7:00. Then we go home, shower, eat, and go to bed. PHEEEW! So, Father's Day....

I'm back!!!!!!!!!

Sooooooooo, what do you guys think of the design??????????????????????? I, if you are wondering, love! the color aquamarine!!! It's my fav! Do you want to know where I got this design?????

Pray for our Friends

When school lets out (last Thurs), everyone is on their way out. Maybe for a summer furlough. Or to start their furlough. Or just to go on vacation to who-knows-where. Listen to this, On May 26th, when we had middle school soccer, we had teams of 6-7. Yesterday we started with 2 teams, that grew to 3 teams, and then went to 4 teams with 4 players. BIG, no, not big, HUGE CHANGE!!! That's only like 24 kids, and, ohh, there are a WHOLE lota' middle schoolers here!!

So please pray for our friends that are on their way back to the States. (And other places). :) Thanks!!

Surprise for TOMORROW!!!

HI!!!


Tomorrow our friends, Jacob (7?), David (4), and Colin (2??) are coming for an ALL day visit!! Well, not really a visit, my mom offered to keep the boys so their dad could go shopping in the 'big cities' (hee-hee). They arrive at...... 8:30 (maybe sooner or later). And they'll be staying ALL day! Like, my mom invited them to stay in eat. This is like Buzz's dream come true!! Jacob is his best friend. (They're Batman freaks!! Acck!! :P Johnny's the 'Joker' :D) Soooooooooo, what a surprise!!! I'm really excited, like the rest of the crew!!! Haha!! (If anyone is wondering, we don't have a Mr. Potato set, FEEEUUWW!!)




Hopefully an awesome day is on the way!!!

Bake Sale!!

So, a couple months ago I had this idea to do a Bake Sale, raise the money, and then give it to a translator that'll go into the village sometimes. But then a couple months later (this was about the beginning of May), a friend we know, that lives here but is on furlough at the moment, sent out an email saying that they needed to raise a whole lota' money!! Well, my mom told me about it and I wanted to do the Bake Sale for them, so I decided to ask Addie (since she was doing it with me) if that was ok to do it for someone SHE DIDN'T EVEN KNOW!! She was fine with that, we asked our friend, Emerald, if she wanted to do the bake sale with us. At first she was hesitant, but she agreed (a few days later).

Here is what we sold:

Banana Cake

Chocolate Chip Cookies

Sugar Cookies

and

Pretzels

The pretzels are one of the best things EVER!!!! I baked the banana cakes, Emerald did the chocolate chip cookies, Addie, pretzels, and Addie and I did the sugar cookies. 

We raised......

Over 100 dollars!!! 

We sold ALL the cookies and pretzels and some of the banana cakes!!!! It was awesome!!! 

Thanks Addie and Emerald for helping me! And Mr. L, Mrs. K, and their family!!!

I'm glad to have helped some friends so they can put God's Word into others language!!

Summer...

Ok, I'm not going to go into the whole '7th grade thing' today. ;) At least let's hope not!! SO things I would like to do (but I can't because I must do school) are...

• Re-Read the Left Behind >The Kids<  Books
• Go to the beach... A LOT!!
• Go to the Waterfall
• Make a friendship bracelet for ALL my friends that are here (at the moment)
• Figure out how to do something AMAZINGLY COOL with my hair
• Get a lot better at soccer
• Play lots with Addie
• Get REAL wet (yeah, good luck on that one, Abrielle)

I'll put this list again at the end of the summer, BUT the things I did (if I did ANY of them ONCE) will have a line crossed through it.

Have an AWESOME summer!!
