Haha! Yeah, I'm the talker in my family. Have a awesome weekend! We're having a lot of our family to our house too! Around 30 people and I'm really excited!
Well, I just returned from Florida for Falcon Days. That was fun, and I got to see a bunch of people. It seemed kinda funny because when Mom (who was there also) would ask me what I was going to do, I would says something like, 'Oh, I'm going to the basketball game with the Chicago-Land Kids.' or, 'I'm at Leah house with the New Jersy Kids.' I stayed with Caroline Aly, always fun and crazy. It was wonderful to get to see her and Cameron again. There were other St. Louis people that showed up, and I had fun going to classes with them.
Back home:
Well, I am not nannying at all this week. The family is visiting Nathan's (the dad's) brother, Daniel. I would like to ask for prayers for Daniel. He has several health issues, and recently there has been some things that have come up that don't look good at all. Please pray.
For Thanksgiving we are having the Bsworth family and the Jalbert family over. It is gonna be so much fun. I can't wait!
Well, (I've been told I use that word a lot) I'm thinking that I should go. Have a wonderful day!

Oooohhh... I LOVE you falcon days t-shirt! Man, makes me wish I was a visiting baby falcon, or an alpha club member (best part of that -- FREE t-shirts for events!) just so I could get one.
I am glad you got to do that! It's always fun to see the pictures. I will keep Daniel in my prayers, you know we actually met him once in New York while we were working up there, I think he was visiting them at the time. Anyways, he was a really nice person! I hate that he suffers with his health! Lots of love to you all!
Yea...Sleeping isn't exactly one of those things I enjoy - it's more of a necessary evil kind of thing - usually it happens when I'm not paying attention. ;p
We are back from the Homeschool Campout.
It was a good year, although I'm not sure that I would say the best yet. I wish that I had made more of an effort to get to know newer campers, but I hung out with friends that I don't get to see very often.
Miss Ferenzce came with us, which was really fun. It was great taking pictures with our phones and then sending them to each other ... or me taking pictures with my phone and then going through her phone sending myself pictures that I liked. ha! I felt horrible when she got sick during the week, but I hope that she still had fun!!!
I cooked one day. (Tuesday morning) It started out interesting because Melanie, Valerie (another girl in our cabin) and I all had to cook, and so we got up at ... 4:30am ... I think it was to get showers and get ready. Well, we were a little lost when it came to drying our hair. We didn't want to wake the cabin, so I offered the suggestion that we go to the dining hall and do it there. So we packed up our stuff, and thankfully there were only three people in the dining hall, but still, it must have been quite a sight. lol! (I made it on time too!!)
Overall, it was a very fun, uplifting, encouraging, interesting, crazy, sleep-lacking, thoguht-provoking week.
Thanks to all who made it possible!!

Sounds like a great time! I am glad that there is a really neat place like that for you to enjoy and get to know other great families! What a blessing! Thanks for the call by the way, we enjoyed listening to your message!
It was so good to see you, even if it was just for a few hours! And I am glad that you enjoyed it too. Tell your mom that I said hi, and Miriam too! Love you!
SO glad you all enjoyed a good week! We REALLY want to go some year!! We better hurry too...you may not always be there...you are growing up way too fast!!:)
Or at least, where we live. ;] Speaking of which - I got this obnoxious notice on my car that I had parked in Fairlawn...something along the lines of...WARNING, THIS PARKING LOT IS FOR CHURCH SERVICES AT CHURCH SERVICE TIME ONLY. DO NOT PARK HERE OR YOU WILL BE TOWED. What's the deal?! :(
Good job on your test this morning... and thanks for letting me crash at your house last night (even if you weren't conscious enough to know I was there =P). I had fun with you all this morning. Love you! =)
Sorry I missed seeing you today! :( We didn't want to pass on any nasty sicky germs to your siblings right before they leave town. Daniel says you're sounding great on guitar!! :)
I'm hurt you think I would think that you would be late ;p Hey when is a good time to call I haven't talked to any of you in forever (besides that short bit at camp) I was thinking of coming down the last weekend of this month maybe. let me know:)
"1 Blessed is the man
Who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly,
Nor stands in the path of sinners,
Nor sits in the seat of the scornful;
2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD,
And in His law he meditates day and night.
3 He shall be like a tree
Planted by the rivers of water,
That brings forth its fruit in its season,
Whose leaf also shall not wither;
And whatever he does shall prosper.
4 The ungodly are not so,
But are like the chaff which the wind drives away.
5 Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment,
Nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
6 For the LORD knows the way of the righteous,
But the way of the ungodly shall perish."
-Psalm 1

Hey, when you get back from your REALLY EXCITING trip to homeschool camp...are you guys going to be able to come out to EO for our Ezra class? I'd copy and paste this on your sister's blog but I see that as kind of redundant...also you'd have to be able to drive, eh? ;]
