And so it begins...

Girls camp is tomorrow. TOMORROW. I spent most of the day packing, and I finished some time around 5:00 pm. I am excited, yet, I am not. Last year was my first year along with my best friend. We didn't have a very good experience. I'll just leave it at lots of people finally saw me cry. Anyways, I am determined to make this year better. And when I say that, I mean I am not going to let anyone keep me up past midnight!

On Friday, my whole family was fasting because we needed to get the travel approval to China. It worked! We got the travel approval later that day. It was a huge blessing and it really strengthened our faith. This whole thing is actually happening. So exciting!

In July, we are going on a trip to the Oregon Coast for 8 days! My sister, brother-in-law, niece, and my cousins are coming with us. It will be fun! Then right after that my parents leave to China.

Anyways, I will post about girls camp after I get back. Stay on the bright side! Have fun! Have courage and be kind! XD

Summer!

WARNING; I will be bouncing around subjects, since my week has been so busy with last minute school projects.

Summer is almost here! We have 3 more days until school gets out and I am SO relieved. Summer means that soon, I will have a baby brother! Weird. We are going to go to the Oregon coast this Summer with my family and my cousin's family. It will be the first time I have been there in 5 years! 5 whole years! Lets see, I was, 8 years old. Wow.

Last month, we had a baby shower for Will. It was a really good turnout and there were a lot of baby presents-mainly clothes-and really good food. I drank about a gallon of strawberry lemonade. Today I opened up the cupboard and saw a whole bunch of sippy-cups. It kinda took me by surprise. Having a toddler in the house is going to take some getting used to, but I know it will be worth it.

Another thing I am looking forward to is hanging out with my cousin, who is kinda like my little sister, and catching her up on my life. We have good times. Plus we have a whole bunch of inside jokes :)
