HUESTON WOODS SR. HIGH RETREAT!!!!!!!!!

This is us! Yeppers...we all took off Sat. morning to head to Hueston Woods state park for our Sr. High Youth Spiritual Retreat! It was loads of fun and some things really hit home for me that I've never thought about before. It really challenged me to dig into God's word and really have an understanding for WHY I believe WHAT I believe. Alex and I led the music for the worship services. It was really fun. I've never really actually LED worship before, so it was really neat just to see how God worked and everything! I think it went pretty well, all things considered! Other than sessions and playing music, we went hiking, swam A LOT, exercised a bit, and just hung out while talking, playing games, and EATING!!! Oh, and did I mention EATING!!! haha...it was quite an amazing weekend!!! I'm really kinda excited becaus eI'm pretty sure that I'm going to be going back again to Hueston Woods this weekend for the JH retreat. Jon wants me to lead some worship their too, but it starts friday and I can't make it there til Sat. b/c of work and some wavaire stuff, but hopfeully everything will work out with that! Pray for that though! Hmm...other than that, I had an incredible weekend just spending time with my God and falling more in love with Him!!!!:)

Huston Woods or bust!!! Yeppers....this was the hiking crew!!! Sat. afternoon the six of us went out on a hike. It was pretty crazy! Anyway...in the back(L to R) are Aimee, Katie, and Kip. In the front are Alex, Matt and Me! We had quite the fun time....although my hair was soaked from swimming right beforehand, so my hair completely froze....it was a trip trying to thaw it out, lemme tell ya!  

I absolutely love all of these girls!!! This was my cabin for our church retreat this weekend and they were by far the coolest gals ever! From left to right: Me, Kirstin(we're related, can you tell?), Andrea, Katie(she's the "face"...she didn't go, but was supposed to and was going to be in our cabin), Bethany, Brittany and Julie. Not pictured here was our cabin leader, Charlene. She's such an amazing individual!!! Wow...we had tons of fun!:) JUMP!!!!!** 

Bridal Shows and Tic Tac Toe...(b/c it's the only word i could figure out how to rhyme w/ "shows"

Woah!!! It's been FOREVER!!! So anyway... first, an explanation for the picture... I finally got my digital back a few days ago b/c it was broke and had to be sent to colorado to get fixed. This pic plus some others were ones that i took but never got to view b/c that's when the camera broke. So, basically...this pic is from sharnettdales. What is that, you ask? Welp...some pple from gville, pretty much wavaires, dance and model for sharnett bridal and prom, and this is from the bridal show like 3 weeks or so ago. They're pretty fun...but a lot of work and some early mornings!!! Anywho....from Left to Right: Kaci, Kate, Lindsey, and me!.....welp...now that I have that under my belt...
What has gone on in my life?...here's a quick overview: tons of bball games, homeworks, tests, cantatas, wavaire practices, tap dancing, solo and ensemble contest, hanging out w/ the best friends in the whole wide world, youth group, bible study, bridal shows, winning a video iPod(yay!), dr. appt's in dayton, ACT....and I think that's about it!!!....welp...i felt like posting something just to let everyone know that I was alive and breathing...so anyway....don't want to take much time b/c i have much better things to do w/ my day today!!! By the way...it's B-E-A-utiful outside!!! Gotta go get some fresh air...maybe some rollerblading...so tootle loo! Later gators!:)
