Sunday to Remember

  • 4:30am wake up to the worst pain ever. seriously I thought "if I pass out no one will find me for about 4 hours.
  • 4:35am throw up
  • 4:45am drink water and climb back in bed
  • 5:00am call Cam just so someone knows what going on and tell me I'll be fine
  • 8:05am hear phone go off... snooze
  • 8:10am phone goes off again... snooze
  • 8:15am get kissed on the cheek :)
  • 8:16am smile at Cam and say "your here?!?" in a very sleepy voice
Basically it was the best day ever!! We went to church, went to lunch at the Chef, did chores, watched a little bit of a movie, got ice-cream, and just hung out. It was a big deal though cause it is the first time he has surprised me like that... it made my semester :)

p.s. I'm horrible at blogging, so I'll probably not update that much just fyi :)

Keep it K-rated

Summer.

Usually summer holds familiarity. No school. Battling against wanting to be inside and needing to be outside. And sun.

This summer was none of that. I was home with my family but it wasn't familiar. It was the first REAL summer that I've spent at home in St. Charles. I loved it! Watching my brothers play baseball, walking around Old Town, chillin with the fam, cleaning house, cooking meals, and just being a daughter and sister again was fantastic! But I missed Cam, and my friends. So I got the chance to mix it up a little bit and tag along with the Wainscotts when the took a vacation to Texas. That was fun! I've never gone on vacation with another family. Ever. Not even related families haha. THEN. I went to the Michael Buble concert for my birthday because my boyfriend is just amazing like that :)

The second half of the summer was perhaps the most difficult and most amazing. I spent 6 weeks working in a HOT kitchen for 10+ hours a day. Sound fun? Well it was! Because I met some of the most amazing girls ever, I grew closer to my Savior, and generally just ignored the world. It was tough to miss Cam. But the things I learned were worth it I think. Curious? Good.

  • Call yourself a Christian? Is Christ your treasure. Above your family. Your friends. Your future. Your success. Your life.
  • If you love Him you will follow His commands.
  • Church is better when you can hear the bugs and birds.
  • Taneycomo is COLD!
  • A/C is good but not really needed.
  • Milk of Mag is DISGUSTING.
  • God is working today.
  • The world is distracting.
  • Shorts are shorter and tighter this summer. This is made even more clear when your used to only seeing nike shorts.
  • Snail mail is the best way to communicate.
  • Christian Hip-Hop/Rap is legit.
