Crazy Weekend

Wow. What a weekend.

It was awesome, but also very stressful.


Everything with the invite went surprisingly well. Praise God!

We got to the fellowship hall at 10am on Saturday and got busy making 11 large pans of lasagna.. which is equal to 22 9X13 pans. Thank goodness for everyone's talented math skills with figuring out the proportions. :)
We worked all day until the guests started arriving at 2ish. While everyone went to different work projects, I stayed back and helped with the health kits at the Fellowship Hall. After working on those for just a bit, I found myself back in the kitchen helping the mom's out. I don't know what we would have done without them.. they did the things we had no clue how to do...like using the ovens and baking the lasagnas.... so thank you ladies! :)

We ate right on time (actually a little earlier)... and fed approx. 190-200 people!! What a turnout! We were planning on 200....and so we really had the perfect amount of food left.

The singing and the speaker were great.

We left the fellowship hall pretty soon after... because I was slightly shot. Ellie and I kept 8 girls at Ellie's house, which was super fun. I finally got to meet some people!

I loved how a minute after I met Amber she said to me, "yea, I know you.. because I read your blog!" Hahaha. :) I know you're reading this right now Amber! :)
I got to meet a few other really fun girls, too. I just wish I could have had more time to get to know them better!

On Sunday..church was great, singing at the nursing home was good, and dinner/snack went well.

The only downside of the weekend was my tests that I knew were coming up on Tuesday... and and the rest of my friends and I were in the kitchen most of the time, and didn't get to meet many people until Sunday.. or really at all.

So thrilled the weekend went great. Hopefully now we will actually get invited to some places!


I am also SUUUUPPPPEEERRR happy my hard week it over! I don't think I've ever been so stressed out/overwhelmed. Although I only had a couple of hours of sleep two of the nights... I survived. Only with God's grace and COFFEE! :)
Now all I have to do is wait, wait, wait, for my test scores.

SO now I only have one more day of class and a paper due... and it's THANKSGIVING BREAK! And then just finals left, and I have a over a month off for CHRISTMAS BREAK! :)

YAY! I CAN do this! :)
