| so far I have received 2 support checks! I'm so excited to see how God provides this money for me to go to San Diego! Seriously, He's amazing! I'm praying to get $1000 by Sunday...if you all could pray too that would be awesome! I'm a little sad my mom doesn't really understand what going on project is and why I ask people for money, so I hope that through this support raising experience she can see that God provides and the people who do support me financially aren't doing it out of obligation, but they're doing it because they want to and want to see God use me this summer! Meghan, Savannah and I are coming down to Springfield Wednesday when I get off work. I am so excited! In all actuallity I've only been gone for a month....but it feels like I haven't seen my friends in a year at least! I'm so excited to just hang out like old times and of course to celebrate my birthday!!! We'll have to make the traditional midnight Wal-Mart run! : ) lol ok well I better get ready for work, but I hope you all have a wonderful week and good luck with any finals, tests, papers, or projects you have coming up! God Bless <>< |

| so dang, a lot has been going on since I last wrote! I've been working a bunch up at Custard's and it's been fun. The weather has been amazing the past few days so we've been super busy which can get a little stressful, but it's still a good time! I've been hanging out with UMKC Cru people trying to get to know them all better for next year! It's so crazy only having like 30 people but I like it. I'm excited to see the changes and improvements that are going to be taking place for the fall! I went to Worlds of Fun on Saturday with Savannah and Meghan to meet up with Mitch and his project friends! It was so fun finally meeting people I've heard so much about and getting to see some of the girls I met at DCC again! WOF was worlds of fun! lol...I'm not too fond of the mamba but everyone wanted to ride it so I did...I just had my eyes closed and my head down the whole time lol. Then we went back to St. Joe and just hung out with everyone. So I've been doing a lot of praying lately about my summer and where God really wants to use me and I feel like San Diego is definitely where I'm supposed to be. So I contacted the director about getting my spot back and so now I'm going! I'm getting really excited, but a little nervous at the same time! I don't have any support raised yet, but I'm putting my faith and trust in God that He will provide the money I need to make SDSP happen! So if you all could be praying about that I would really appreciate it! Ok well I better go...I need to fill up my car and then head to work! I hope you all have a wonderful day and I love you! God Bless <>< |

| SPW was a lot of fun, but unfortunately we forgot to take very many pictures...oops! SPW for all of you who don't know what it stands for is Slumber Party Weekend! Kent was in town and Mitch and Brett were coming up from Springfield so I stayed the weekend at Savannah's house since she lives right down the street from Kent. We played this game called Tripoley...I had never heard of it before, but it's a card game. You start off playing poker and then once someone wins you use your same hand and play some rummy game. It was so confusing at first, but after I got the hang of it...I won a bunch! Saturday night we went to see Disturbia! It was soooo good! I really liked it! Church was good yesterday and then we ate some Chipotle. Hung out at Kent's a little bit before I had to go to work and we all talked about our irrational fears and biggest pet peeves! It was so funny, b/c Savannah and I some how managed to turn every conversation into one about Custard's...so then Mitch was like one of my biggest pet peeves is when people talk about their work! Anyway, work last night was crazy! It was finally warm and we were really busy! We had some unhappy customers but things were handled and everything was fine by the end of the night! It's nice to be working back up at Custard's again...I really enjoy the atmosphere and getting to have conversations with the customers! Ok well I better get going...my mom and I are driving to Columbia to bring my brother some shoes he forgot! I love you all and God bless <>< |
