Camp, Missions Trip, and a lot more!!!!

Sorry I haven't posted in awhile. I was at New Life Camp for Teen Week 2 weeks ago. Then I came home and rested. Then on Sunday my dad's childhood neighborhood had a reunion. He had a really good time. He had the oldest child (me) and the most children:-) That wasn't a big surprise. Then after we left the reunion my aunt, her two year old daughter, and my dad's mom all came back to our house for my dad's birthday. We swam and ate hamburgers and lemon pound cake:-) It was very good:-) I am leaving for my missions trip to Texas in 16 days. I am very excited. This will be my first time on an airplane. My dad and I are going with our TKD school. It should be a lot of fun. Tomorrow is the fourth of July and we don't have any big plans. I think it will be nice just to be able to hang out at home. We may go to my grandma's tomorrow evening for supper and to watch fireworks. Lillie went to the groomers on Tuesday and she looks soooooo much better. She was REALLY hyper when she got home:-) I guess I would be hyper too if I had been at the groomers all day. My dad set up the Slip n' Slide today so we are going to do that after supper. We had a great time on it last year. The length of it eventually grew to around 80ft; maybe even a little more. I am enjoying my summer and I hope that it continues to be a good one.

My Busy Summer

I am sorry that I haven't been posting a lot lately. I have been very busy. On May 31st my aunt got married. That was a big thing. It was beautiful. I had a lot of fun. So the weekend before the wedding New Life Camp called. They wanted me to be a C.I.T for Early Week(June 1st-June 7th) I wasn't sure if I wanted to be a C.I.T at all this year. But my mom told me that this would be a great opportunity. So I said that I would do it. I called my friend, Amanda, to see if she had gotten called(she wanted to be a C.I.T during Early Week REALLY bad). I called her and they hadn't called her. She was NOT happy. So I get off the phone and I went to get into our pool, about an hour after I had called Amanda camp called her! She was going to be a C.I.T worker(a C.I.T worker works in the kitchen and helps with the kids, a C.I.T stays with the kids the whole time) any way she was very excited. So the day after my aunt's wedding my mom and I stayed home from church and packed up all my stuff and I was off to camp. The week turned out to be a really good week. I made some new friends and was reunited with some old friends. There was a girl in the cabin next to me that really made an impression on me. She had down-syndrome. She was so pasionate about Christ. She loved to have her hair played with and she loved Jesus with all her heart. She rededicated her life to Christ during the week of camp. So I came home from camp and then I went to bed. This week I don't have to go hardly any where. But next week I am going back to New Life Camp for my week to be a camper. I am also doing Tae Kwon Do sports camp that week. My friend, Leigh, and I are going to New Life Camp during the day, going to Tae Kwon Do sports camp during the night, then coming back to camp to go to sleep, and then waking up and doing it all over again! So I am going to be very tired this coming week. This summer, I am also going on a missions trip in July, and I have to take the driving part of drivers ed some time during this summer! So I have a very busy summer.

Tuesday/ Biology/FROGS!!!!!

Today is a typical Tuesday. I woke up (I didn't really want to wake up), I got dressed and then I went over to my grandpa's because he was taking me to biology. Biology was a little more interesting then normal. We are on our last module and we only have 1 more week to go:-) In this module we are learning about mammals, reptiles, and amphibians. Today we mostly talked about snakes and frogs.


Most of you know that I am terrified of frogs. I DO NOT like frogs. I don't know why but I have NEVER liked frogs. I scream whenever one is near me. I don't really care much for snakes either, but I REALLY do NOT like FROGS!!!!!! YUCK!!!!!!

School Play!

We did a school play this year. It was the play "The Odyssey". It is a Greek play about a Greek who's name was Odysseus. We had a really good time putting it on. I was a narrator, a solider, and a hand-maiden. Here are some pictures of us:



These are my friends Ellie and Tabby.
