The Weekend!

It turned out to be a great weekend, despite the stress with not having things secure with the house. We started packing on Saturday and oh what a mess. We realized quickly that we did not have near enough boxes. We got as much done as we could before it was time to get ready for Air Supply!

The concert was so much fun. This was my third year going and it is a blast everytime. I don't really go for the music but for the fun with my friends. We all sing along very off-key to the music and drink the infamous Mai Tai. When they play the last song we all rush to the front to get a closer look and listen. It is crowded and hot but hilarious and awesome at the same time.

Sunday we went to church, and I was so relieved to be a part of the service. I have been traveling and working in the nursery, so I have missed many services. It was so nice to worship with the body and fellowship and hear the word preached. Pastor Mike is talking about VISION. What is God calling you to? How does He want to use you in the environments you are already in? I am looking forward to delving more into this series. We learned about the church we are starting in Santee, so we have more information when we go to figure out where to go to church when we move.

Sunday evening, my parents threw my birthday dinner. Yummy steak, veggies, fruit, corn on the cob, and mandarin orange whip. MMMMMMMMM! My brothers girlfriends came over and we had dessert and played bowling wii. It was so fun. My mom bought me this new devotional called "A Call to Die". I read the prologue last night and I am really interested in diving into it. It will be a big commitment though. It is a 40 day devotion and I will need to fast from something during that time period as well. It is always hard to give up something you really enjoy for something you know will benefit you but may not be "fun". I think I will start the book after our move and things have settled just a bit. I will let you know when we have the house and have moved in. Still waiting....I
