I figured maybe if I sit here and write something mindless on my blog, it might get me in the mood to write everything I need to… Though summer is here, beautiful as ever, I still have a lot of graduation things to accomplish before New Attitude in a few weeks. (Graduation stuff has to all be done before that because its only a few days after the conference!)

Today Khrysten and I worked on the speech I’m giving at graduation. (We didn’t get that far, but we got the general idea of what I’m going to say) Jordan Slingo is honoring the dads and I am honoring the moms. I’m looking forward to it, I just need to organize my thoughts! I also need to write out my “thank you letter” to my parents that will be displayed on my memorabilia table the night of the ceremony. Then there a few essays I have to work on in applying for scholarships. And I ran out of invitations so I have to make more! And I need to finish my scrap book this week! I only have 8 more years of life to do! J And I’m sure there are other things I’m forgetting… Like shoes! I need shoes for graduation! They need to be adorable and go with my dress, but I need to be able to walk in them because I will be walking in front of a ton of people. Oh the dilemmas of life! What shall I do?!

This past Saturday a group of us served as Janessa and Malachi’s wedding reception! It was pretty crazy and tiring but SO MUCH FUN! I loved being a fancy “waitress” and not so fancy dish washer. Everyone did so much pitching in that the work load wasn’t excessively overwhelming. We even got a chance to party and dance with all our other friends for a while. And I am so sore! I never danced so much in my life! It really was insane. (and my parents, oh my goodness, my parents were dancing fools…that’s another story though) Yeah, the next morning, I felt like I was dead. Haha. But by the grace of God, got up and went to church! J We just started a class at church called “The Truth Project”. The first lesson was very exciting! There has really been a theme lately in the things God is revealing to me. He is giving me a hunger for TRUTH, teaching me to dwell on TRUTH, and to be an advocate of TRUTH!

I can’t believe we’re well into the month of May! Just a few more weeks until my baby brother Quint is born! I have a feeling he’ll come while I’m at New Attitude. L But *maybe* I’ll be home! And New attitude! I am SO excited! Getting there in and of itself is going to be an adventure. We’re driving up…My mom, Gloria, Maria, Nicole, Sam, Steven and I! A full car, but I think it’s a pretty great group. I’m so excited to see what the Lord is going to do!

I love the beginning of summer! On Sunday everyone was running around all excited, quickly filling up our week days with fun things, mostly movie nights. Lots of movies! (We’re going to see Prince Caspian an midnight on Thursday!! YES!) And next week, well, it’s just going to be a beautiful thing. Looking forward to it would be an understatement.

I probably really should get moving on all my projects!
