Old News..

so. I’m really bad at updating this thing. soooo. over the last few weeks i haveeee…

-gone to Dorney Park with Jenise. Sarah. Jeremy. Laura. and Randy… no Justin :( :(  i rode with Jeremy in his sweet mustang while Jenise drove my car with her sarah laura and randy in it. which is silly. it was a lot of fun. we went on all the big rides. including steel force. and the new one voodoo ((which is silly because the name doesnt match the colors of the coaster.. they painted it bright blue and yellow.. when they should have painted it like black and red.. but oh well.)) we also spent some time at the water park playing like kids in the water works which was a lot of fun. floating on the lazy river. and we did a couple tube rides. one of which was this multiperson raft ride.. we thought we could put all 5 of us in one raft ((we could have fit)) but after waiting forever to get to the top we realized you can only put 4 people in a raft.. soo we had to split up. Jenise and Sarah rode together. and me Laura and Randy rode together.. the water was freezing. and the ride was really scary. i basically felt like i was going to fly over the side wall / fall forward on top of Randy when i was at the top of the wall. i pretty much would never go on that again.

-ok. i also tought the 4 and 5 year old Vacation Bible School group at church. the first day was HORRIBLE. and i didnt want to do it anymore. we didnt have enough time. i didnt plan well. we did the wrong verse. we didnt do the packets. and i didnt know we had games and crafts. and i didnt know what time they were at and they ran into each other and it was just bad. however. that tuesday. wednesday. and i guess thursday went much better. i figured out how long we had and what we had to do. and did things in an order.. the same order each day. they kids were very hyper and rowdy on thursday though. and for some reason we didnt really have enough stuff to do. so they ended up just playing a lot. haha. oops. i wasnt there on the last day of VBS ((friday)) because i had to be at the art gallery for first friday. but all of the kids in my group got perfect attendance ((so they got to go up on stage and they got a prize)) except one little boy who had missed on tuesday. apparently he kept asking the helper if it was his turn to go up yet. but it never was his turn. well i heard about it and i felt horrible. so saturday at the church picnic i found Sue ((the organizer of the whole vbs deal)) and we got a bag and put a bunch of random, fun little toys in it. and i gave it to him on Sunday and told him i heard they missed him to go up on stage but that was for him. he was happy about it.

-..andddd the art gallery. well that thursday of vbs i was called to come into the gallery to help John set up the upstairs show. this meant taking screws out. spackling. hanging a 6 panel quilt which meant pinning like 5 or 6 spots on each side of each panel which means my thumbs hurt for like 2 days after that. i also helped John hang his lightbox photographs which are really good. then we had to go to biglots to buy extension cords. and then nail all of the lightbox cords to the walls so they looked all nice and not just dangling all over the place. this all happened in like 3 and a half hours. because John had a news crew coming in for an interview. i left when they got there. thennnn. that friday. was first friday. and i was pretty much at the gallery from 130 in the afternoon til like 930 at night. i “linted” ((aka used a lint roller on a table cloth and the quilt. which is actually DE-linting. but thats ok)) swept. vacuumed the stairs and the downstairs perimeter. went and printed pictures. then put them in frames. set up tables and food. and then poured wine. then just watched the gallery for the last hour of first friday. cuz John was upstairs. so i had to make sure no one stole or broke anything. and i was supposed to politetly tell people we were going to be closing. but i just couldnt do it. haha. woo!

-my family was in north carolina from wednesday til monday. and then Jenise was at kingdom bound from monday to wednesday. and nowww i’m going on vacation with the bennetts on saturday for a week. we’re going camping in the adirondacks. im really excited about it!!! hiking. and fishing ((in style with my new sunglasses)) and just hangin out! woo! kkkkkkk thats my life. bye!

-oh. ps. i have a consultation about getting my wisdom teeth out on the monday after we come back. ahhhh!!! im nervous about it!
