So writing an entry for my blog has been in the back of my mind for a long time. But school is much more important, so of course I need to get that done first. But here I am with my school not done, and I'm writing a blog.
It seems like I say this all the time, but it's been so long that I'm not sure where to start. Here's a few things that have happened since my last post:
--I can now legally drive by myself. It's not such a big deal to me now, like I thought it was gonna be before I had my license. ..but I still very much enjoy it. :) I have to share a car with Adam, but it seems like I'm usually the one driving the van since he has the car. :P
--Orchestra started! We have a new director... and he's kind of odd, but yet he's really good. I got 4th chair, 1st violin! I was very excited and surprised.
--Grandma came home from the hospital! Us kids have been over there a lot, since someone has to be there most of the time to stay with her... so if Mom's there, we usually go too. Last week my dad was on business, so we all stayed there for the week. She's been having a lot of trouble with nasuea, dry heaves and gagging.. but she's having a procedure done tomorrow that will hopefully cure that.
--We went to Kansas for a short weekend to vist Jill & Larry's family. Kayla was sweet as ever, and Brenna was her usual silly self! On Saturday they had this "Albany Days," which the boys loved. Albany used to be a town, so they have a schoolhouse, train station, museum and post office you can tour. But there's also lots of tractors and they have a tractor pull too. I wasn't real fascinated by it, like the boys... and I was ready to leave a few minutes after we got there. But we were there for a couple hours, and then us girls left (thankfully!).
We really didn't do much the whole weekend... but who needs to do something when you have Jill around to talk to?! It was Trenton's birthday on Saturday, so we made him a lego cake and celebrated that night. We got there Friday afternoon and had to leave Sunday after church. :( When we went back to their house to change, we begged Dad to stay until Monday... but he had to get home so he could leave on business. :( The way home went really long...
That's about all of the highlights. This past weekend was great. Friday night I went Scrapbooking at Kendra's, Saturday I was in the Pumpkin Parade with Aaron Schock, went babysitting, and then went to the Bible Class Luau. That was really fun. (thanks, Aunt Dawn!) Ultimate Frisbee is now my new favorite game/sport.....
Adam started repenting this week. I was very schocked, but I'm very excited for him. :)
Alrighty, well I need to go get ready for Orchestra tonight! Have a great weekend!

Good thing that I checked your blog to get caught up on all the news! No one told me about Adam! I am so happy for him and your family. Keep updating more frequently to keep the relatives in Indiana informed! Thanks Wendy and the pictures from the Luau look like it was fun!
Yay! I feel so special... :D
hooray for driving mini-vans. I took my drivers test with ours. haha.
I haven't been to kansas in a long, long time. it's pretty sad really.
i'm excited that adam is in the young group.... hm... does he want to go to apple river next week? :)
He should want to go to Apple River! One of the great Washington YG traditions.
Wendi...is it just me, or does it seem like it's been forever since we got to hang out? What are you doing tonight?
1. What does your sweet mama drive now?
2. I haven't hung out with you forever either! How does a homecoming party at Jamie's sound?
3. I read that Apple River is one of the place that our WONDERFUL (sarcastic!) governor closed at part of the budget cuts.
oooh! A post!
Don't worry about having to drive the van. I had to drive it until I was 17. I also took my drivers test in our mini van.
Jenny- yeah, rockin in a mini van is always fun. :)
Luke- The hanging out thing... you were suppossed to come over Sunday night. :P I know, I know, you couldn't help it.
Linds- I'll totally be there for Jamie's party... is it on Oct 3rd, now? ;)
