hey friends. i was at church this morning at university baptist church (ubc) in waco when all of the sudden the pastor was shocked electrically during a baptism. he was taken in an ambulance to a nearby hospital, but he passed away. Kyle Lake had a wife and three young kids. please be praying for his family and the ubc church.

so this is the other day when i went to wash my clothes at kris and wendi's. of course, i played with the p-man! he's so goofy... he put those things around his neck and was running around the yard having the time of his life! hahaha... so much fun! i love that kid :-) in the pic with me in it, he kept smiling, then right when i would click the button to take the pic, he would close his mouth! oh, preston... what a tease! hahaha... isn't he just so cute?! i can't get enough!!!

these 3 people (... i'm not including myself) were such an encouragement to me this past weekend. I'm blessed to have met them.  Thank you God!

that's nuts.

i just saw the funniest thing... i was just walking back into beall (where i live) and saw a squirrel on the ground. when i walked by it, i guess it got really scared because it sprawled out on its belly-- with limbs spread out, too, and it was shaking... i thought it was SO funny cause it was just looking at me like it was wondering if i knew it existed and acting like it was dead! hahahahahaha... i hope that was a funny story and not one of those, i guess you had to be there ones.

i took this picture while i was sitting on the front porch talking with my parents during one of the many lightning storms this summer. i miss those nights.

it amazes me how people become so different. i'm so glad that i'm studying psychology here at the mary hardin. i had a test today in abnormal psych... meh. we'll see how that goes. i want to start memorizing scripture. i've always been like, "well it's really hard for me to memorize... you just don't understand." bull.

today dr. kemp said, "if i were to give you $1,000 for ever verse you memorized for a week..." basically, what would we do? that was really clear to me. memorize. it may be something i will struggle with... it may take a while for me to get one verse memorized, but i need to do it. it will help me grow. i feel it is necessary for me to do.

well, that's about it for the day.

it's friday. yay!

so, it's friday and i'm excited. i totally forgot that i had this blog until brooke made one... then i was like, wow. i have one of those. meh... anywho, it's taking me a while to figure this out cause it's not as easy as xanga ;-) well... i guess i'll be more creative later. peace out

oh yeah, this is a pic of me last semester at starbucks... yay for studying 'til like super early in the morning :-D
