I'm still around even though my blog might not show that. I'm currently at work after a nice 5 days off.
After having 5 days off I really would prefer to be at home but alas I am here. So I'll make the best of it and blog:-)
What have I been up too?
Well we went to Florida for 9 days which was great! I loved it and getting to do all the fun parks and dinner shows. My favorite was probably Sea World and I'm even going to write that I cried while watching the Shamu show. It was just so cool to me to see how incredible God's creation is. Jared was a trooper and a super nice husband because I know that doing all the animal parks and dinner shows are not his favorite. But he did get to go to Harry Potter, which I also enjoyed and I am now actually reading the books. Everything at Harry Potter was very true to the movies. One of the rides made both Jared and I feel SUPER sick, so I didnt even end up going on the other major roller coaster. So that really is not so fun or it made me realize I might be getting old and I can't ride roller coasters anymore...I'm hoping that it was just the ride and that I can still enjoy Cedar Point maybe even this summer.
Currently(besides being at work) I'm looking forward to our reception/pig roast fun on June 9th. Hopefully the weather will be nice. I just ordered some fun collages, canvas prints and a couple other picture things for it. I'm excited to see how they turned out! I am also quite excited to have a mashed potato bar and have super yummy cupcakes!! YES!
And then at the end of June, its time for Panama!! Yeah mission trips! I'm so excited to go as a leader and be able to have that experience. God is so good. And I'm also excited because we finally have a youth pastor at church and I think we may start small groups soon and I would just love that. But back to the mission trip, I know its not about the fun excursions that we are going to have although we are going on a boat to an island where howler monkeys abound! And then we are going on a jungle viewing thing, which is going to be beautiful! And I am also most excited about being a leader and meeting and being able to impact alot of teens.
God is so good!
Panama sounds so fun! How long is the trip? And what book are you on in HP?
ReplyDeleteThe Panama trip is about 2 and a half weeks:-) I'm only on the 2nd HP book. Maybe I'll have some free time this weekend to read!
ReplyDeleteHey Ashley! Good to catch up with you on here too! Thanks for the prayers!
ReplyDeleteSo I got sick on a ride a few summers ago and again on our honeymoon when we went to Dollywood. So sad cause I used to LOVE rollarcoasters. I'm blaming the heat and hope I'll be able to enjoy them again. Hope you can enjoy Cedarpoint too!
That will be so cool for you with Panama!
ReplyDeleteKeep up on Harry! Those first few books are easy/not quite as good (IMHO) because they're good for younger kids, but then they really pick up! I should probably read them again.
