And we're off!

Weeeeeel.... we actually aren't leaving til Saturday, but I thought I'd better do the good-bye post now, as tomorrow will be distrastrously hectic, and we'll be at the conference on Friday..

Thus, I bid thee all (well, almost all) so long, farewell....

I hope to provide you with lots of pictures on my return!

I love cookies. I hate cookies. My tummy hurts. I just made cookies. I snitched. I hate cookies. I love cookies.

I LOVE little girls!

Pride and Prejudice Play

It was wonderful!!!!!

Mrs. McMinn, Molly, Laura, and Natalyn came with us, as they had tickets too. We ate somewhere known as the "Cafe Express" and then headed off to the theatre.

We ran into the Abbrats (anyone remember Kelsey?) there, too!

Anyway, THAT WAS THE BEST MR. COLLINS EVER!!! Oh, he did SUCH a wonderful job! (So convincing, so disgusting). It was also the best Mr. Bennet ever! Oh so funny! And I can't make up my mind whether or not that was the best Mrs. Bennet ever....if not, it was SURE close.

Elizabeth was okay..... not as good as the movies. As was Mr. Darcy......he didn't look a thing like the movies........

Lady Catherine was funny too: she said "If only her health would have permitted it" (about Anne) over and over.... :):):)

Very funny. Very good. Worth seeing. Especially with friends.

5 days until the wild conquerors return!

Braveheart

I've finally seen Braveheart. It was beyond what mere vocabulary can describe. I only recommend it to those who are very emotionally stable.

Quick post

Seeing that I have no time to write up a long post with books quizzes, I decided to put up some camp pictures to buy me some time. :)







Why yes, I did win.

Every man for himself

The after-effects of mud-football. A most exciting experience...the first time I've enjoyed football in my life.

Check out the ears!

Robby did this ABSOLUTELY AWESOME picture of me! I LOVE IT!!!!























Thanks again!

The Long-Awaited New Post

Well... it seems that my adoring public is demanding a new post. My life must be more interesting than I thought.... though I can't deny, it is full of adventures and excitement.

Let's see... oh yes, I just got back from Frontier camp - a wonderful experience. I'm still somewhat suffering the after-effects though... (slept in til almost noon on Monday... I've never done that before and boy did it feel awesome!). Among my favorite activities were the water-weenie (get me to tell you my heroic story about that sometime), the mud-football game between my cabin and another girl cabin, and blacklight dodgeball (blacklights make everything that is white glow... and had nothing white on me except my eyes and teeth :)). Anyway, there were a total of 5 cabins (3 girls, 2 boys) and each cabin competed to win more points... (this could also be done with bible memory verses). We won the girls (we actually had more points than the guys' too, but they gave the boys a break, and Fannin cabing won the boys division). No doubt because we recited 603 bible verses in 2 days :) As reward for our hard work, the winning cabins got to stay up way past 12:00 on Friday night with pizza and ice-cream... fun, fun, fun... and the biggest, craziest game of Monkey-llama!

That will have to do for now... I have things to do :)
