My New Favorite Song...

    Paramore is rockin'! After listening to some old 80's songs with my dad, he let me show him this one. It's from the third Transformers   movie. I officially love it! Enjoy! -Bailey

Amazing Pics

 The last post was our 50th post!!!! Yah!!!

  Now to business. Some of these pics I got from "The Guys" blog. If you are one of "The Guys" you know who you are (Grant, Brient, Henry, Jack, Dennis, and Ben). It was either Hardcore and Etc. or Bear Grylls is Really Awesome. I believe you can check out Hardcore under our "Blogs to Check Out" page. Enjoy the crazy and fun pics with some commentary from yours truly :)

                 
                          Well... I don't really have much to say other than he had better aim high.

   

:) This guy plays better than me. If you have seen me play ping-pong (or any sport involving had-eye coordination) then you know that even this lizard is better.


I really love this one. Poor dog. I wonder just how they got this pic...photo shop?


                       Ah, yes. Paramore. Bestest band other than my other faves. Gotta love em'.



                     After half a semester studying this fairytale (ask me later), this was a refreshing sight to see. I never liked the "Prince" after his transformation. He couldn't pull off a ponytail.

             
                  And last but not least, a picture I took myself. It's of my piano at home. I really do like this picture. More to come over the summer I suppose. And don't be surprised if they are a little crazy ;)

June Birthdays

  Almost forgot :)

   Alicia (1st), Dennis (4th), James and Melanie (21st), Rachel (23rd), Khloe (29th), and last but not least my wonderful Dad, Greg (16th).

  Happy Birthday to all our June babies!! Who arent really babies anymore! They are all over the age of 14 :)

The Little Things

 The little things are what make me the happiest...for example, when a friend knows you are struggling with something, and tells you how much she cares for you and that she is there for you. AH so wonderful! That isn't very little to me, but it's just something that helps!

 The little things that God puts into your life are sometimes the things that stand out most. At Advance, a group of people all got together and just sang. Two guys on guitars, and like 6 girls all singing in harmony, praising God. I was one of them, and let me say it was very refreshing just to sit and sing to the Lord with a bunch of your friends.

 The times that I have goofing off with my family. We were riding in the car on Monday, just running errands, and ended up laughing and cracking jokes. Listening to music, dancing around. Those times are great :) My dad loves to listen to 80's music and reminisce....and he loves it when I listen to it as well. I'm not much for it sometimes but it can be fun.

  I could sit and talk all day about how happy I am with just the little things to satisfy me. Love em'! God knows exactly what to throw my way. Love that He loves me. Love that He cares enough to do the little things for me.

  Just kind of rambling right now, and I need to get ready to leave. My mom's car is in the shop, and we are going to pick it up. See ya'!

Stuck

 OK, for the record: those pictures of me from advance (volleyball posing oddly, and the one of the upside-down child almost hitting the water) are not my greatest. But at least you can laugh at me :)

  Right now in life, I'm kinda' stuck. Between trying to understand God's plan for my life, and waiting on God to do something with it. Patience is not my best virtue. I really don't like not knowing what will happen to me in this life. What I will do, who I will marry, when I will die. Those questions always nag me.

 I have learned that you have to pursue God. But then you are also supposed to wait on the Lord. Be patient and let God take control. So where is the happy medium?

 Right now, I am waiting. I want to let God take the wheel and do something in me. But I am also praying that He would do something soon! Pray for me please, if you would! And if you are in the same position, then I will pray for you! We as Christians should always be there for each other :)

 I must be off... Man VS Wild is on. Yah I'm a nerd :p

Advance PICS!!!

We're Back!

  Hey Ya'll!

  We are back from ADVANCE 2011! And let me tell you...it was epic. The messages were challenging and inspiring. The games were hilarious. The competition was, understandably, competitive. The white water rafting was quite the adventure (our boat got stuck for 20 minutes, and everyone else from our group had to wait for us). And the lake/blob was a lot of fun.

   My favorite part was the extended worship on Friday (I think it was Friday) night. It was so amazing. The presence of God was felt. My friends and I prayed for each other in a not so small group (have I mentioned how amazing my friends are :)?), and there was not a dry eye in the place.

  Well, I'm glad to be back, and I'm sure that Brianna has plenty of pictures to follow :) See ya!
