let me see you wobble

so last week......FREAKING BEST WEEK OF MY SUMMER.

i had the amazing opportunity to go an be a leader for a youth camp that i was a part of, with the same youth group that i am a leader in that i was also a student in not to long ago. FLOW baby. that's where it's at.

we headed up to Fort Bluff in Tennessee. such a beautiful camp, and their second year hosting us! i hope this becomes the new permanent place for FLOW, i really do.

my dear friend chandra and i had the BEST SMALL GROUP EVER. hands down. no arguing this one folks.

Ale', Ashley, and Adeline ( we should have been called the A-TEAM. hahahahahaha...): ya'll were such a huge encouragement to me this past week. i'm blessed to have been one of your leaders. thank you girls for opening up, and sharing your thoughts, wisdom, and what the Lord has been teaching you. LOVE YOU!!!

These ladies are fantastic.

i was so encouraged by, not only my small group, but by the youth in general. there is always a night at FLOW that asks for a commitment to God or salvation. and the number of kids that committed themselves to God for His plan in their lives was incredible. i pray that they take this commitment to heart and live it through their daily lives.

to all you highschoolers, watching your growth  throughout the week was also a huge encouragement. thank you. 

this flow also brought back my love for praise music.......

"For so long I've been sleeping 
Dead Inside 
In so many ways, so many ways I've tried to hide 
But you breathed deep into me Your melody 
What was life before You? 
I don't remember 
I don't remember life that way 

I, I get lost inside 
The wonder of Your beauty 
A melody so sweet I'll sing forever 
Of your love " -melody by audio adrenaline

and

Falling on my knees in worship
Giving all I am to seek your face
Lord all I am is yours

My whole life
I place in your hands
God of Mercy
Humbled I bow down
In your presence at your throne

I called you answered
And you came to my rescue and I
I wanna be where you are

In my life be lifted high
In our world be lifted high
In our love be lifted high

-came to my rescue by hillsong

these were just some of the amazing songs that were sung in the last week. 

and last but not least......the wobble.

yes. it's very likely that we did this dance as a group on more then one occasion. and yes....it's very likely i got video proof of it. don't worry though- i did wobble myself. JUST NOT ON CAMERA.

instead of pictures, i got some video footage from each day. once i start getting them put together, i'll post them for ya'll to see.

until then.....

let me see you wobble.

HUP BERTDAY.

little does anyone know that this entire surprise party was the easiest thing to plan, kinda. this is simply because cara went on ahead and planned it. but she didn't know his would actually happen.

SHE HAD NO FREAKING CLUE.

are we awesome or what?

happy belated birthday cara! love you.
enjoy this beautiful video.
remember the good times that happened almost two weeks ago.

all you need is coffee.

and now, after watching all that beautifulness, you are asking yourself "WHAT IS THIS??"

i can answer that question. this was my final project for my business writing class. we were suppose to come up with a video for a fictitious business proposal. this is basically a commercial of what my "coffee place" COULD be.

now, after watching this, i know you want to come to my coffee shop. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.............................................no.

the start of something lovely.

today is the start of something lovely.
my dear friend/ "sister" Jennifer, has joined us in the blog world!!!

i love this girl so much!  and she is a fantastic writer. 

go be a gem on a ring and check out her very first entry!!

To Jennifer-

i'm so excited that you have finally, FINALLY started a blog. especially since i have been suggesting it for a while. :))))) already i can see that this will be fascinating and can't wait to see whats in store for you through this process!! LOVE YOU!

this is great.

this is NOT for anyone. i just thought this was so funny. so i'll post this hate for a persons blog on my blog.

WEEEEEEEEEE!

free stuff is good. and free.

So it's been a few...

anyways. i got some free stuff last week to review. here's me discovering what i got. so interesting, right? SO INTERESTING. but hey, free is good. especially when it's theses lovely things in the video. i'll be doing a follow up video over the weekend hopefully to talk about how lovely these free thing were. :)

also, i have been doing more with youtube then i have with this blog. sorry bout that. making youtube videos is something i have wanted to do for a very long time (hence this post from like two years ago.)

so i was thinking i could make a deal with all of you followers here. so as not to completely abandon this blog and all of you, how bout i start posting my videos here after they are uploaded to youtube? and then give a little more commentary?

how does that sound?

so you think can handle the bout of weirdness you will see from me in person? well, either way. you're going to have to. because it's happening. :)

never EVER buy clinical anti perspirant deodorant.

oh the things that DON'T work...it frustrating. at least i didn't smell like body odor. i just looked like it. haha. NO.
