Hmmm, so here I am again. Much has transpired since my last post. It tis hard to believe that it's been almost a month since Miami. I've been pretty busy with life, but not overly so. The weekend after Miami, we were at Putnamville, and the weekend after that we got Greg and Kristen all married off. It really was a beautiful wedding, and it was good to see some old friends again!

                                                                      It was good to see this dear, married girl again too!

And here is the beautiful cake...

Kendra and Tanya at the Brew.

Me, looking incredibly cool with Kaitlyns sacred, new shades on. :)
 
Just contemplating life at our favorite coffee shop.

So, yes, life rolls on...

P.S. This CD is amazing. I strongly suggest investing in it. Powerful lyrics, nice vocals, and beautiful melodies and orchestration.

  So, I've been back for almost two weeks and I'd say It's about time for a picture post. As most of you know, I was in New York for two weeks teaching VBS. It was an incredible time with lots of great memories and amazing friendships made!

Here is my fellow guide and I with our 9 year-old girls.   Me with two girls on my pick-up route, Alejandra and Anastasia. Two very lovely young ladies.

Here I am holding a craft project.

Some of the kids on my pick-up route. I love 'em!

 Here I am with Bryant and Jesus.

These dear ladies are my prayer group "Annlyns Angels" :)

And these two incredible people, Danielle and Chris. My "Julliard Friends". Wow. Incredible memories. Bumming around Manhatten, the best hotdogs in the city, Julliard and the Library, sitting on the floor of Toys 'R Us and cracking up when Danielle's water bottle started leaking all over the floor! Oh, and who could forget those Starbucks interrogations!

My little friend Liam and I...:)
 

My dear Rachel...

Me and my "son" Donovan. 

And isn't this little guy (Logan)  just the cutest!
 Well, you're probably all getting board with this, so I'll post another one to make you all jealous!

CHINESE FOOD!!!!:):):)

 So then I came home. It hasn't been all together easy, but I'm starting to get back into the swing of things. Sometimes it seems really selfish of me. Here God gave me an incredible two weeks with wonderful people and kids, and I'm pouting because it's over. How pathetic is that!
 A little glance into my life back home includes back to work, and I took the team leader position that Gladys offered me again. I figured it would be fairly stupid to turn it down. I e-mailed Rosolyn about violin lessons, and I'm so ready to get back into some serious music! And this weekend starts the month of Gospel Echoes prison rallies. ( If you've never been to one I strongly encourage it. They are amazing!) I'm looking forward to getting back on my big blue bus and singing with my family again! This weekend is ISP in Michigan City, next weekend is Miami, and the next weekend is Putnamville, and then the Ohio rally is some time in September. I'm pretty excited that this year I'm going to be able to go to all of them!
 Oh, yea, I got my Bible School application sent off yesterday which is a relief! I'm so very much looking forward to it! Maybe I'll actually get some answers about where I'm supposed to be in my life...

I'm home. I have to go to work in half an hour. Can I cry now? Pictures later.
