So I haven't updated this thing in a while. But one of my good friends, Anna, from West Virginia has tagged me to do a post about 6 random things. I figured this would give me an excuse to update. So I was sitting trying to think of 6 random things about me. I'm really not all the random or have that many interesting things about me. So we'll see how this goes.</span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande';">
</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande';">1. I love to eat chips with mustard. People think it is absolutely disgusting, but I love it! The kids at my new school eat it all the time and they got me hooked on it. I recommend you try it before you say anything bad about it =).</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande';">
</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande';">2. I absolutely love weddings, but I think most people already know that about me. I've basically been planning my wedding since I was in the 5th grade. I love to watch all the wedding shows. I've always just been in love with them.</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande';">
</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande';">3. I'm kind of stealing this one from Anna, but I honestly can not think of anything. But I have never ridden on a roller coaster. I have always been terrified of them, but our youth group is going to Six Flags in September, and I've already been told by my friends that they will drag me on more than one. So we'll see how that goes.</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande';">
</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande';">4. I have an addiction to Dunkin' Donuts French Vanilla Iced Coffees and their chocolate chip cookies. There have been days when I've had 3 medium iced coffees in one day. It's definitely a bad addiction, but they're just amazing. It's kind of how Tiffany is with Diet Dr. Pepper's.</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande';">
</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande';">5. I love to go to baseball games, especially my cousin Devin's games. I just love the whole atmosphere with the parents and everything. They're always a lot of fun.</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande';">
</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande';">6. Texting is my obsession. It's pretty bad too. If you see me, then I will probably be texting, but if I'm not, then my phone will be right there in my hand.</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande';">
</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande';">6 people I tag:</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande';">1. Rachael</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande';">2. Tiffany</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande';">3. Megan</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande';">4. Zach or Cass</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande';">5 and 6. Anyone else who wants to do this. </span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande';">
</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande';">So that's it. Maybe I'll start updating this more now. I highly doubt it though.</span></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27286360.post-22863134126774778122008-02-03T15:56:00.000-05:002008-02-03T16:09:25.401-05:00It's Here.We're moving Tuesday. I know. What a good way to start a new post. But it's finally here. We went and picked my daddy up at the airport on Thursday and I was so excited to see him! I hadn't seen him in a month!!! My last day was Tuesday and honestly, it wasn't as hard as I thought it was going to be. I only cried at the end of the day. We packed pretty much the rest of the week. Yesterday (Saturday) we had about 22 people that came and helped us pack up the moving truck. It was a tough day. So emotionally and physically draining. We're staying at my aunt and uncles house for tonight and tomorrow since we have no furniture in our house. Tuesday we'll start up and we'll get in on Wednesday. We can get into our rental house on Saturday so we're going to be staying with some people for a few days. I think we're going to be starting school on Friday. It's going to be a weird week.<div>
</div><div>Please pray for us as we start this new chapter to our lives. We're all having mixed emotions about this right now and it's going to be tough for a while. We know that this is where God is calling us to go. We're going to help a church that really needs it. We're doing the right thing. God is going to be with us every step of the way, but it's still going to be hard.</div><div>
</div><div>To all my friends in West Virginia:</div><div>I love you guys so much! You have been absolutely amazing. I'm going to miss you so much, but we'll still be friends. You all need to come and visit me! I'll be down to visit too. I have so many memories with you guys and I will never forget them. You guys will always be in my heart. Best friends forever. It's a promise.</div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27286360.post-86074523004081883592008-01-14T16:12:00.000-05:002008-01-14T16:23:57.568-05:00Moving Update and AndyI know. I know. Posting 2 times so close to each other is a miracle! haha. But I got more information about the house so I figured I would let you guys know. We're not going to be getting that house. It's not the one the my mom really likes. So we're just waiting now..I guess. I really have no idea what's going on. Things are very confusing and we're taking it day by day and for anyone that really knows me, knows how hard that is for me. I like to know what's happening and what's going, and I am not patient at all. I guess this is God saying, "Here you go Hannah. Here's your chance to practice patience." All I know right now is that I'm going to school at least through Friday, then we have to see what happens. The projected move date is the weekend after next. But that'll probably change tomorrow the way that things are going right now.<div>
</div><div>On Saturday afternoon, I went to the Salvation Army with Sam, Anna, Donna, and Delaney and we fed the homeless. There was a guy, Andy, there who told us pretty much his life story. haha. But sometimes I guess people just need someone to listen to him. He has had an amazing life. He had horrible times, close to death times, and heart-warming times. Through it all though, he praised God. He was an alcoholic for years and now his is 10 years sober. I mean, his story is just amazing. I loved talking to him and listening to his story about all that he's endured. He asked Anna and I why were we there. He said, "It's a Saturday night. You girls should be out on dates. Wouldn't you be anywhere else?" and we said, "Of course not." He was a such a cool guy and I wish I could see him again. He asked us to pray for him and his back. If his back doesn't straighten up, then he was to have surgery and he really doesn't want to have to have surgery. So just remember him in your prayers please.</div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27286360.post-73638150550580344412008-01-11T16:25:00.000-05:002008-12-11T01:46:13.824-05:00Housing Update!As of now, we have no idea when we are moving. We thought it was going to be next Saturday, but now we're not really sure. It all depends on the housing situation up there. We have offered on a house and are just waiting to hear back from them. I like the house a lot. <br />

<div><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: center"></div><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: left">So my mom and I are going back to Honduras in June this summer!!! I am so excited!! We were thinking that we wouldn't be able to go, but we are! The school is going to let me take finals early, or just take them when I get back! I'm so happy. <br />
I started reading a new book, Starving Jesus: Off The Pew, Into The World by Craig Gross and JR Mahon. I'm on the third chapter but it is such a good book!!! I do highly recommend it!! <br />

2007 was a great year! With Winterfest, youth group get togethers, Honduras, work camp, youth rallies, and just fun times with my friends. I became closer with friends and made totally new friends that I wouldn't be able to live without. I had amazingly fun times with my friends, times that I will never forget.<br />
2008 is going to be the start of new part of my life. With a new house, a new school, a new church, and new friends. The first couple months are going to be crazy with trying to settle in a making new friends. Hopefully it will be a good year.<br />Unknownnoreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27286360.post-88836652973063973582007-12-05T16:49:00.000-05:002007-12-05T16:54:29.953-05:00Random Update.So I guess I really don't have much to write about these days. All of you already know that I am moving up to Massachusetts in January. I'll probably use this thing more after the move so friends and family back here in West Virginia can know what's going on in my life.
<br />We had our first big snow of the year today and I'm loving it =D I love snow soo much!</br>
<br />School is going well right now. Almost time for Christmas break!! Christmas is my favorite time of the year! I just love the atmosphere of it! I'm really hoping for a white Christmas this year. </br>
<br />I can't really think of anything else to write about right now. I guess I'll update later on when I have something more interesting to write about</br>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27286360.post-69301196777357559312007-11-05T19:43:00.001-05:002007-11-05T19:46:41.422-05:00Prayer Request.At the end of worship on Sunday, one of the Elder's at our church announced that Mario Figueroa, a sophmore at Ohio Valley University, was killed last Saturday night in an ATV accident. It was a complete shock to everyone. You could look around the auditorium and see everyone's face drop. Mario was a member of the soccer team at OVU and a friend to everyone. Please pray for the family and friends of Mario and for everyone at OVU at this time. Thanks.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27286360.post-8410844506391179222007-09-24T18:40:00.000-04:002007-09-24T20:47:32.816-04:00The Irresistible Revolution<a href="http://ec1.images-amazon.com/images/I/5155PnifFiL.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 363px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 407px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" height="514" alt="" src="http://ec1.images-amazon.com/images/I/5155PnifFiL.jpg" border="0" /></a>
<div>I've been reading a book lately called <u>The Irresistible Revolution</u> by Shane Claiborne, and let me just say it is one amazing book! I highly recommend it to anyone! but anyway. there has been some amazing quotes and things that Shane has said in his book, but one has hit me really hard and I can't seem to stop thinking about: "I remember hearing about on old comic strip in the days of St. Ed's. Two guys are talking to each other, and one of them says he has a question for God. He wants to ask why God allows all of this poverty and war and suffering to exist in the world. And his friend says, 'Well, why don't you ask?' The fellow shakes his head and says he is scared. When his friend asks why, he mutters, 'I'm scared God will ask me the same question.'" I was reading that during school and I finished and was like, "Wow." I was sitting next to my friend Kelly and she was like what? So I read it to her and she was like, "Wow." It's just powerful to think about that. I mean we are called to be the body of Christ. His hands and His feet on Earth. Why do we allow all this to happen? The prayer that we read and recite, but never really think about what the words say, "Your kingdom come. Your will be done, on Earth as it is in Heaven." Have you ever really thought about that..Your kingdom come. Your will be done, on Earth as it is in Heaven. Again this brings me back to the point of we are called to be the hands and feet of God. I mean really..why aren't we out there helping the world? We sit at home and wonder why all this stuff happens, but we never do anything about it. I'm preaching to the choir here too folks, because I'm guilty of doing the exact same thing. I want to do a lot more mission trips like Honduras. I feel happy when I do those types of things. I feel like I'm actually doing something to help people, which I love to help people. It's an amazing feeling for me. but anyways..this is just something that has been on my mind lately and I thought it was worthy of a blog post. I would love to hear your opinions on this, too so leave the comments!</div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27286360.post-30602754364127792762007-09-13T19:47:00.000-04:002007-09-13T20:22:52.419-04:00My Life Lately..<span style="font-family:arial;">so school started back on August 27th. It's going okay so far. My history and geometry class are going to be pretty hard I think. Well I don't think..I know..because they have been pretty hard so far. My other ones are okay. Nothing as hard as those two. Spanish 2 is going to be my favorite I think..since Spanish has become a new passion of mine. So as most of you probably already know..I'm out for the whole volleyball season. I torn ligaments and severly pulled my ACL and MCL in my right knee at a volleyball practice. I was very very upset when I heard that. I mean, I chose to stay down on the junior team this year as a 9th grader because I though we would have a really great chance of winning the championship..and as it turns out we do..I just won't be on the court =( They're 2-0 so far which is so much better than we were last year. And I can't help but wonder why this had to happen? Why God let this happen? I was talking to my mom about that the other night and she said that accidents happen. That when something bad happens I have to keep on praising God..but you know how are that is right know? At practice, the day before i got injured, my coach asked me to pray over the team and for the season. I prayed that there would be no injuries during the season and that He would keep up safe. And I got injured the next day. You know how are that is for a 14 year old girl to comprehend? It's just been hard lately. My mom also said that it's the Devil trying to get to me saying, "See? You prayed to Him and looked what happend." So right now if you could pray for me, I would appriciate it a lot. This is really really hard for me right now...Thanks guys.</span>

So my mom and I went to Honduras, June 9-17, with a group from our church, the Grand Central Church of Christ. It was absolutly amazing!! Oh man..I can't even begin to explain how this trip has changed my life. It make look at some things a lot differently now. I mean people here in the U.S. (including me) just want and want and want. Down there..man..you get a real realitly check. They have probably one outfit maybe two until more groups from the U.S. bring them clothes down. They may wear the outfit they have for a year before they get a new one. I take everything for granted that I have here. I mean, I have a mom, dad, and sister, a family that loves me, friends that are always there for me, a wonderful church who supports me, and a school to get an education from. I also get to eat as much as I want in a day. Down there, they're lucky if they still live with one parent. A lot of them don't have a way to get to church besides walking so they will walk for 2 hours just to get to church on a Sunday morning. It's just so amazing!! Some of the kids don't even get an education and if they do then it's only for a few years. Most of them get only one meal a day..if that. It just hurts my heart to see that. God never stopped amazing me on this trip though. Just the way He made things work out for our group to do more things then we ever imagined and to have way more money then we ever planned on getting!! It was truley an eye-opening experience for me. I will never be able to forget some of the sights I saw. I mean..kids were fighting just to get one toy because they didn't have anything. There are some kids faces that I can't get out of my head. I think about them all the time..wonder how they are doing..where they are now..are they getting food to eat? Are they okay? I just can't help up wonder about all of them..I came home and was like..What am I doing here? Why do I deserve all of this when they have nothing? It just didn't make sense to me. I am so thankful for everything that I have now! For everything that I get to experience. So now about our group..
We had about 35 people I think that went from the trip. We all came from all over! We had someone from Texas, Deleware, and Morgantown, WV. Most of us didn't know eachother before we went on the trip, but now we have life-long friendships from it. I believe everyone was called to go on the trip for a certain reason..God had them there for a reason. We all got along so so well!! It was truely amazing!! I love every single one of them!! One thing we always did, and I will never forget this, was sing. No matter what we were doing, we were always singing. Whether it was bagging food for a food distribution or just singing on the bus. It was simply amazing!
So we got to Honduras on Saturday afternoon and man..was it hot!! We went outside and took a group picture and loaded all of our bags onto a truck that was then taken to the mission house. We walked over to Church's Chicken and saw the kids from Casa de Esperanza which is the orphange that Jen Wright from Belpre runs. Then we loaded up on a bus and went to the mission house where we had a meeting then loaded our stuff our rooms. We went and had dinner at the dining hall after that then we had devo that night...

<div>On Sunday we woke up, ate breakfast, loaded on the bus then headed to church at Los Pinos. Church service was simply amazing!! I will never look at a church service the same way again! I mean..they were clapping and lifting their hands up the whole time while they were singing. It was true worship. The first song they sang was "Shout to the Lord" (in Spanish of course). It was awesome!! I will probably never sing that song the same way again!</div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5097111553721780130" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOYeSllgO1c624UQ8dURtM0PwW1t3d5yk35ukDfdCrOWJsnPmH66hZ2Ny2Ncbz-CchHFsrwLorVjY4gJW8DdJDud6rSPyZpkCKe76E_7Kboih4hnpFoMfhbILTIEpQD3msSFQ_sw/s400/church.jpg" border="0" />This was the church building.

After church, we loaded on the bus again and went to Jovenes in Camino which is an orphange just for boys. That was so much fun!!

It was so cool!! We felt famous when we got there cause the kids were all around the bus when we pulled up and they kept grabbing us and yelling "Hola!" A few little girls grabbed my hands right away and stayed with me the whole time!! Anna and one of her girls, kept making fun of me in spanish..It was a lot of fun!! When we were leaving, Anna and I kepy hugging our girls and we were bawling our eyes out! It was so hard to leave it! We kept hugging until they told us that we had to get on the bus, NOW!

<div>On Monday we built a house. The house site was on the side of a hill! It was crazy! It was pretty scary for me cause all the Honduran guys kept looking at me and asking a guy on our team, Walter (who speaks fluent Spanish) about me. He finally told them that he was my husband so they would stop asking. So he was my husband for the week =P They also kept trying to steal our backpacks. We had to move them three times. It was all worth it at the end though when we saw the look on the family's face when they came inside their new house. When the mom of the family came around and hugged us all with tears streaming down her face..that one moment made it all worth it!

The girls went to Mi Esperanza to get manicure and pedicures, and the guys went to build a house. Now that doesn't really sounds fair, but Mi Esperanza teaches single moms important things they need to know so they can open their own buisness.

We first went down to the kids cancer ward where they were getting chemo. Oh man was that hard. They told us to go in with smiles on our faces. That wasn't that hard until you saw the kids. Everyone went to one of the kids and I went to a little boy named Ceasar. He's only 12 and he has lukemia (sp?). He is also blind in both eyes. He had such great strength though. We asked him if he felt any pain and he said no. You could tell he was in pain though. He gave him this cat and he just sat there and petted it (the cat is the one you see in the picture). It was so hard. He's one of the kids I wonder about. </div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5097174384798353714" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhxFASUAJ3SmTTIoS-ro8f4rwTL0XwByTmOZZizLbMtIotYNRPqiSYmGSjmkRPd36mpjcCY6EXdjpF1I0OeNuXGsk_eYWrz4Bjj73wNs3FNLYwFq-i7RjyIUmzmFil-8At9g1Hv8Q/s400/Honduras+07+101.jpg" border="0" />After that we went to the malnurishment unit. Wow..that's all I can really say. There's no way to really describe how you feel after see that. I guess I wasn't really expecting to see that. There was one girl in there that when I saw her and heard her story, I started to cry uncontrollably..I have tears in my eyes now as I even just think about it. This girl was 14 years old..the same age as me. She looked only about 10. She was so tiny. Both her parents had died and she was in her room alone. She was the shyest little girl ever. She didn't talk. She just nodded her head. Jen told her that she was a princess and she saw the daughter of the King and that she needed to lift her head high and be proud. We went back to the Villa Gracia (the mission house area) after that for dinner. I couldn't eat. I would start to then I would see the faces of the kids in the malnurishment. It emotinally destroyed me seeing that. Again..there is no possible way to put into words how I felt after that day.</div>
<div>Wednesday morning we did a food distribution underneath a bridge. Literally! We pulled up and there were hundreds of people waiting for us. We were never allowed to be alone. People got a blue ticket then they would go down the hill and get their food bag. People actually lived in houses under the bridge. It smelled pretty bad too. But to see the houses and living conditions they are in..man..like I said before, alot of what I saw is so hard to put into words.

It was amzing to be able to see everyone using their talents. Some of us were also able to help feed the kids! They have a feedin center there that feeds children lunch everyday. They feed between 250-300 kids a day!! It was amazing! The VBS went really well! We played the biggest game of "Pato, Pato, Ganso" ("Duck, Duck, Goose") I had ever seen before!! It was awesome!

Thursday we went to the Jimmy Hughes orphanage and the rehab center. Pastor Salvador rapped for us, the Jimmy Hughes preached to us. That was interesting to say the least..Then we went to Didasko which is another orphanage. Our group gave Jorje, the man who runs it, $3000 from the extra money we had left over. The orphange had been running really short on money anf Jorje and his wife lived totally on faith to get them though. It was amazing!

I think I'm going to wait and do a huge end of the summer post about everything I've done this summer. It'll be a whole lot easier. I just say a little about Honduras really quickly though. It was truely amazing! I fell in love with the place!! It has really changed my life so much. I'm planning on going back for two weeks next year. I can't wait to go back! I think that a whole year is too long to wait!!! So I'll say more about it later =]Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27286360.post-33052605879804588632007-06-08T20:12:00.001-04:002007-06-08T20:22:21.942-04:00Honduas in Tminus 6 hours!I know I just updated Monday, but this news couldn't wait!! I'M GOING TO HONDURAS THIS SUMMER!! AHH! I' M SOOO EXCITED!! My church is taking a mission trip down there June 9-17 and my mom and I are going! We had a lady from Casa de Esperanza, where two people from my youth group went this past summer, speak at prime time tonight! It was soo moving...I got goose bumps and chills when she was speaking! I knew God was telling me that I needed to go be a part of the mission trip!!!! Casa de Esperanza (which means House of Hope) started out with 5 kids. About a week and a half ago the got 5 more kids and they need all the help they can get! When we go down there, we could be building houses, visiting orphanages, distributing food and clothing, doing vacation bible schools/adult bible studies, and hospital visits. I saw this thing on Sam's xanga and I loved it so I'm going to put it on here----- If we could reduce the world's population to a village of precisely 100 people, with all existing human ratios remaining the same, the demographics would look something like this:60- Asians, 12-Europeans, 5-US Americans and Canadians. 8-Latin Americans, 14-Africans 49-would be female, 51-would be male, 82-would be non-white, 18-white,89- heterosexual, 11- homosexual, 33- would be Christian, 67-would be non-Christian, 5-would control 32% of the entire world's wealth, and all of them would be US citizens, 80-would live in substandard housing, 24-would not have any electricity(And of the 76% that do have electricity, most would only use it for light at night.),67-would be unable to read, 1- (only one) would have a college education, 50- would be malnourished and 1 dying of starvation, 33- would be without access to a safe water supply, 1- would have HIV, 1- near death, 2- would be near birth, 7- people would have access to the Internet. If to take a look at the world from this condensed perspective, the need for acceptance, understanding and education becomes evident.Think of it! If you woke up this morning with more health than sickness, you are luckier than the million that will not survive this week. If you have never experienced a war, a loneliness of an imprisonment, an agony of tortures, or a famine, You are happier, than 500 million persons in this world. If you are able to go to church, mosque or synagogue without fear of harassment, arrest, torture or death, you are happier, than 3 billion persons in this world.If there is a meal in your refrigerator, if you are dressed and have got shoes, if you have a bed and a roof above your head, you are better off, than 75% of people in this world. If your parents are still alive and still married, then you are a rarity. If you have a bank account, money in your purse, and there is some trifle in your coin box, you belong to 8% of well-provided people in this world. If you read this text, you are blessed three times as much, because Someone has thought of you;You do not belong to those 2 billion people which cannot read and... you have your computer! Someone once said: Live like it's Heaven on Earth. This is your world, its your life, you CAN make a difference!----- Jen (the lady that spoke tonight from Casa de Esperanza) had a WONDERFUL quote tonight that I loved and this is what it said: Let my heart be broken by the things that break the heart of the Lord!!--- I'm sooo excited and I can't wait to see what God has in store for me on this trip!!!The website for Casa de Esperanza is: <a href="http://www.cde-hopehouse.org/">www.cde-hopehouse.org</a> Here is Jen's blog if you want to take a look: <a href="http://www.calledandcompelled.blogspot.com/">www.calledandcompelled.blogspot.com</a> and if you want to see pictures of some of the kids at Casa de Esperanza, look at my friend Sam's xanga that went this summer: <a href="http://www.xanga.com/footprints_in_the_sand_05">www.xanga.com/footprints_in_the_sand_05</a> Leave me comments!!! Hannah Elise---- God, let my heart be broken by the things that break your heart! Help Jen and all the kids at Casa de Esperanza!! Prepare my heart and mind for this trip and help me to do your will down in Honduras!! Amen------------:::::------------So this was a post that I wrote back in like October or November about going to Honduras..Well the day has finally come!! I'm leaving for Honduras in about 6 1/2 hours!!! I'm seriously a nervous wreck!! I hate flying!! I can't wait to get down there and see what God has in store for us though! We have about 30-35 people going on this trip! I know that God is going to do wonderful things through our group! Things I can't even begin to imagine!! I am so thankful to be able to be going down there with the group that I am!! They are wonderful, amazing people!! A few of them I don't know, but I can't wait to get to know!! You can email me and my mom while we're down there at: <a href="mailto:gcchondurasmissions@gmail.com">gcchondurasmissions@gmail.com</a> Be sure to put my name in the subject line! We are also going be keeping a blog and that is: <a href="http://www.gcchondurasmissions.blogspot.com">www.gcchondurasmissions.blogspot.com</a> (I'll put that in the blog's I read part on my blog) Please pray for a safe travel down there and safety while we're down there! Also pray for me to be calm and for me to have peace! I'll see you guys when I get home!

Rachael had two solos and then they did a bunch of pieces together. Here are some pics and I'm going to try and get a few videos up if it'll work!!

It was sooo much fun! We got in to her house early EARLY Saturday morning...and by early I mean 1:30AM! So we slept in on Saturday then we went to the aquarium and the beach in the afternoon! It was definitely a ton of fun! On Sunday morning we went to church then we went to Wal-Mart to get grocery's and flowers. We went back to her house and planted the flowers. On Monday I went to school/work with Tiff! It was so much fun!! We went shopping that evening. On Tuesday I stayed home during the day then when Tiffany got home from work we took her dog Bohdi to the lake! It was soo hot! I got my leg scratched pretty badly by a thorn twig thingy, but its all good now! <span style="font-size:+0;"></span>We went to Sonic after that..that was the first time I had it! It was very very good! On Wednesday I went to work with Tiff again, and that night we went out to eat with Tiffany's friend from work, Robin, and her family. On Thursday I went to work with her once again and that night we went out to a few stores to pick some things up. Friday, I went to work with her again, but Tiffany had two volleyball games to play in that day. It was teachers against teachers, but they let me play in one of the games. It was a lot of fun! We left to come home after that and it snowed pretty badly on the way back, but we made it back home safely. The week was definitely a ton of fun and I can't believe that it's already over! It's a week that I will neer forget!! Thanks so much to Tiffany for opening her house to me and letting me stay the week with her!

I went on google and I found it! Here it is: When I say..."I am a Christian," I'm not shouting "I am saved," I'm whispering "I get lost!" That is why I chose this way. When I say..."I am a Christian," I don't speak of this with pride. I'm confessing that I stumble and need someone to be my guide. When I say..."I am a Christian," I'm not trying to be strong. I'm professing that I'm weak and pray for strength to carry on. When I say..."I am a Christian," I'm not bragging of success. I'm admitting I have failed and cannot ever pay the debt. When I say..."I am a Christian," I'm not claiming to be perfect, my flaws are too visible but God believes I'm worth it. When I say..."I am a Christian," I still feel the sting of pain. I have my share of heartaches which is why I seek His name. When I say..."I am a Christian," I do not wish to judge. I have no authority. I only know I'm loved.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27286360.post-85363853870672714942007-01-11T19:21:00.000-05:002008-12-11T01:46:34.065-05:00Update =)So...things are going okay right now..school's definitly getting harder and I've had problems with some friends latley but we worked it out..I definitly have just wanted to get away these past couple of weeks and the one place that I've wanted to go is Maine!!

Part 2Below is a slideshow of my Christmas presents! I figured it would be easier to make a slideshow then to load all the pictures up on here...plus it was more fun to make!! Look at that and leave comments down there AND up here!! So "Santa" came early because we're leaving for Massachusetts Thursday!! We got home after school yesterday and Rachael ran up the steps (I was still in the car) and saw all the presents and screamed! It was hilarious!! We're leaving for New England on Thursday!!! My parents are picking us up early from school and we're driving about 8 hours up the road to somewhere in Pennsylvania and spending the night then driving the rest of the way in on Friday!! I definitly can't wait! It's going to be sooo much fun!! This may be my last post until 2007!! How wierd is that?? I may update up in New England but I'm not sure..So I hope you all have a WONDERFUL Christmas and safe travels if you're going anywhere!!! Leave me comments!!

School's still going really well! I got all As and one B on my midterm but the B was in art so I should be able to bring it up! Christmas break starts next week and I can't wait!!! We're going up to Massachusetts and New Hampshire! I love being up there but I really dislike the drive up until we get to Connecticut then it's ok! It's going to be sooo much fun! I love hanging out with Drue and Devin! We always have fun together! I did Christmas Cards last night! I love doing things like that! Rachael and I got our picture taken for the card but it wasn't done professionaly..Mom just took it in front of our Christmas tree! I'll put the picture up when I get home...I'm at the elementary school right now waiting for my parents to pick me up! Tomorrow I think Kelsey is walking over here with me and we're going to do our homework then we're going back over to the high school to watch the junior high girls basketball game! Thursday night I think I'm going to the choir concert and watching all my friends sing! Then this weekend, my aunt and uncle and grandmommy are coming in and we're having our family Christmas together! It's going to be a lot fun! Then Sunday night is the teen Christmas party for the youth group but I'm not sure if I'm going to that or not yet...So I'll put that picture up when I get home!
