Finally - a time to blog!! So much has happened over the last few weeks. Let's see... a quick recap.
--June 19-21 - My brother and I spent the weekend at Aunt Brenda's! Our own little vacation 20 minutes from home!! We got new tennis rackets and played tennis every night. And we did other fun stuff too! Love you Brenda! :)
--June 24-26 - Helped out (whenever I wasn't working) at Camp Hope, our church's own Children's Camp. It was a blast!! I had so much fun hanging out with some cool 6-12 year olds. What a special group of kids!
--June 27 - Had a delightful time babysitting three sweet kids!
--June 29 & July 1 - Got to hang out with my awesome boyfriend! :)
--July 2 - Mom and I went to an Isaacs concert - wow what an perfect night! So special.
--July 4 - After working at Panera in the morning, the fam celebrated the 4th at Smokey Bones...yum! :)
--July 5 - Gave a little power point presentation about my Ireland trip in church Sunday night. Enjoyed reminiscing!
-- Summer Camp - and amongst all these lovely things I've been working at a Summer Camp at Liberty Bible Academy. It's been wonderful...I usually work from 12pm-4pm about 3-4 days a week, but yesterday I helped out all day by driving some kids up to Boonshoft Museum in Dayton. And next Wednesday I'll be driving up to the Creation Museum. I feel very blessed with such a cool job!
-- Panera - and for my second job of the summer... I've been working 10 -15 hours a week...and I still love it!
And if this post seems unusually cheery and happy it is because:
1.) My Independent Study is DONE *and the crowd goes wild!*
2.) Tonight after Summer Camp I'm driving to Charleston, WV to spend the night with my aunt, uncle, and cousins and then Friday I'm driving to North Carolina to see my friend Katie!!! It will be my first little road trip solo and I'm very excited!!
So that's been my life the past few weeks. I've had some ups and downs, but God is so faithful! I'm learning to base my happiness and fulfillment in HIS love! What an awesome God!

Yep, you sure do sound busy - but fun busy. Glad your I.S. is finished *Hooray! Woohoo!* (That was the crowd for you ;D )
Drive safely tonight. I'll be praying for you!
Oooh, I finished one of those too! (Indy study, that is, not a blog) Sounds like an awesome summer! We should get together!
Tennis is awesome! I'm currently in the market for a racket myself.
Seth and I got to do a report in church about the Ireland trip as well.
How much are tennis rackets? I'd really like to learn how to play tennis. That would be something fun to do on the warm weekends!
Hey lady! Love your blog!!! Keep up the good work. Give Luke a hug or high five or something from me. :)
Alanna,
I've been cleaning and listening to your music today...it is delightful! :) Congratulations on finishing your independent study. :) Have a great day, girl! :)
