Hidey Ho There Neighbor!

Well hello there...so first and foremost, I just got off the phone with my mom only to find out that my "brother" Joe had a serious stroke last night and is serious condition now, and I just wanted everyone to be praying for him...He is married to Darcy, and they have a daughter, Tess who I believe is about 11, or 12...so please be in prayer for him, they live in Wisconsin and he's only 45 years old.


Ok, next thing..I survived the sleepover, we had a total of about 24 girls that actually stayed the night here in our two bedroom house..geesh, and then 5 adults..We had soooo much fun! We had pasta, salad, and breadsticks for dinner, cooked s'mores over a fire, and baked over 100 chocolate chip cookies only for them to not even last an hour..lol, typical! We also, as leaders transformed one of my extra bedrooms into a "dressing room, spa, boutique" and surprised the girls with hand massages, make up, and hairstyling...THEN, we formed a runway outside with candles, and had a talk about Esther, my personal hero, and then a pajama fashion show! All in all, we all got closer to the girls, and some new friendships were made! The girls all finally started to fall asleep at about 4am, and the leaders shortly after that...THEN, we woke up at about 7:30, then had some moms come and cook pancakes, bacon, and had a fruit platter...and finally...they all started to go home slowly but surely and the last girl left at about 12:20...YEA!!!


So Jonathan and I are having our one year anniversary today! YEA!!! We are headed to Vegas and totally stoked about it, we will be back tomorrow evening and I will for sure be posting pictures, and letting you all know how it goes!!!!

Miss and Love you all!!!!

and please be praying for Joe and the family in Wisconsin!!!
