VBS Family Night

Alright so this is officially the first blog post coming from the sound booth at church. As of right now I am sitting in the back with Kaylee and Jonathan just chilling before the family night for VBS. I am praying that things will go good and that everything will go smooth. I was just handed the program for tonight and it looks like things will be a little hectic =P. Tomorrow will officially be the last day for VBS for the year and I am partly happy and partly sad. It has been a great week, got to know (Kaylee is looking over my shoulder right now critiquing my word usage) a lot of good kids and some crazy people. =P Hopefully tomorrow will be a quick day because I am soo stinking ready to go to the pool. So right now I am debating if I want to go to Walgreens or chill out here. The air is acting up and I am tired of random comments from me. If only the air would work then things would be more comfortable. Dad just walked up and I am going to work on getting the air fixed. Talk to you later. . .

Back From Daytona

So we are officially back from from Student Life Camp @ The Beach in Daytona, well we have been for several days. Sorry, I'm just a little slow at updating my blog. But, I have an excuse. . . I have been BUSY. I mean seriously Friday night I got home like @ 9:30, Saturday I had to work on the movie for camp to show to the church and Sunday I was at church all day setting up for VBS. Oh yeah VBS, so we are having VBS this week, just F.Y.I. Moving back to Daytona, it was an amazing week. God was there and everyone in that building I hope could feel Him. It was the most amazing feeling in the world just be sitting, standing, singing in the presence of God. Throughout the week God moved through soo many lives, and it was very obvious. So, now after after an amazing week at camp we have the wonderful week of VBS. ;) During VBS I am taking care of the sound, video and lighting for the entire week. I am praying that this is going to be a smooth week at VBS. I will try my best to leave another post in the next couple of days. Have a good rest of the week. . .ttyl.

Getting Ready For Daytona!

So today has been a pretty long day. I went with some buddies to the mall today just to goof off and get some things before we leave for Daytona next week. I AM SOOO READY!!! It's Saturday night and I still have not packed for the trip. =/ I'm excited yeah for the beach, but I am also excited to see what God has planned for the week. I know some of the things we have planned, but it kinda raises your curiosity to see what God's got going on. =) I think back to last yeah and all the fun we had, but I also look at God things. The things that I felt, the things that I saw, that were totally GOD. Tomorrow is Sunday and more than likely our Pastor will call us up to the front of the church for the elders to pray for us. Now I do like this idea but I am not too excited about going all the way to the front of the church to stand there. Now moving on to next week. . . Crowder is going to be there and I WANT him to sing the song "How He Loves". I absolutely love this song! Also, Tomlin will be leading worship and Louie Giglio will be speaking. Sounds like an amazing line-up right? YES!! But is that the entire reason we are going to camp? What do we look forward to for the week? The good times? The fun? The food? The music? Or. . . do we look at next week looking to God, what will happen to the youth group, to us. It's hard to not look at all the fun, music, and good times. But, one thing that I know is true is that God will be there and He is going to do mighty things. I don't know about you but that kinda raises some curiosity and some excitement. You know that excitement like at a football game and they play the opening song where the players come on field. That kind of excitement that sends chills down your spine; that's the kind of excitement I am talking about. I can remember last year when Tomlin first walked out on stage, he played the song "Let God Arise", I started to feel something, a tingle, a chill; was it the music? Just the idea that I was hearing the music that I had sang for so long coming from the writers mouth? Was that it? It was the fact that I was singing this song, the song I had sang for so long in my bedroom, to myself; I was singing this song to the one and only God, God Almighty. Just the thoughts of that right now is making me a little excited, okay maybe a lot excited. Alright well I need to go get some things ready for the trip and for church tomorrow. Have a good night, I will more than likely be back tonight to talk a little more about the trip. See Ya!

Mistake Fix. . . oops

Hey so I just found out that Kaleigh's sister did very well with the surgery. . . on Tuesday. I kinda got mixed up with the dates. But, she is doing well. Thought I'd just let people know. =)


WHIRLEYBALL!!

So yeah, today is WHIRLEYBALL with the youth. I took off work today just for the two hour Whirleyball, why? Because it's life changing!! Whirleyball is like basketball and lacrosse in bumper cars. Confusing huh? Well anywho that's from 12 to 2 today. After that I'll be back at the house and let you know how things went at whirleyball. So, I kinda didn't blog yesterday and I am sorry, I will make up for it today with two. =)

Also, on a side note, Kaleigh's sister is having surgery today, please just keep her in your prayers.


Have a good day!

One More Week

Okay, so yeah it is kinda hard to find time to type out a summary of what has been going on, I know, hard to imagine. I have been so stinking busy, but right now I have some time. Just wanted to let you guys know that this is the last week of work until Daytona, Florida. =D I cannot wait. Sam, Ben, and I have been talking non-stop about the trip and how psyched we are. We all know that its not all about fun and the beach, and that there is going to be times to be serious. We all had a talk about it at the mall on Sunday. I think we all got it, and we are still pretty excited. The only thing that we really want to do, fun wise, is to go swimming at like 5:00 in the morning, in the ocean. Oh yeah, now we just have to convince Jason. So as of right now I am getting ready for our trip, well lets say adventure; yeah that sounds better. =) I got some new clothes, shoes, flip-flops and sunglasses. OH YEAH, I just ordered a new pair of Oakley Half- Jacket sunglasses, pretty sweet huh? Yeah I'm pretty excited. Alright well I am going to try to blog for the rest of the week each day. I hope I can do it. But, as of right now I have to go, I have to get ready for work. Hope you have a great day, I'll check in later.
