Kenya: Part 2

Once we got to Kitale we were on the schedule that Allison has been on since she has gotten there. It entailed meeting a lot of people, and was a little overwhelming...but it was SO fun when we walked somewhere and I knew someone by name that we passed. Between all of us we took some great pictures - but the following are just my favorites.

Kenya: Part 1

Oh yeah...so...I went to Kenya about three weeks ago. Katie and I traveled there to see Allison, and meet all the people she has been working with over there. Allison and Daina met us in Nairobi and we went on Safari before we went to Kitale. I was the only one who hadn't been on safari yet, and even though the other girls still thought it was cool I was a like a little kid at Disneyland for the first time.

Somewhere Over the Rainbow

If I made this cake, I wouldn't want anyone to eat it. So amazing!

I Don't Wanna Wait...

Tonight at the World AIDS Day Event for our students Phil was teaching me how to use the HIV/AIDS Cube...similar to the Evangecube or the ecube...and I noticed this painting of James Van Der Beek (I looked it up - his name is 4 words long) in the upper right hand corner of Step 4. I thought I had seen every episode of Dawson's Creek.

Yes Please!

I was searching for a December calendar to write all the holiday parties and different events on that we could post on the refrigerator, and this beauty came up...

I mean I FREAKING love Adam Brody. It was almost impossible to resist.

My Twilight Review

If you are a female who has read the book:
Lower your expectations
Remember all the reasons you Love Edward
See the movie

If you are a female who hasn't read the book:
Read the books
Fall in Love with Edward
Think about spending two hours with him
See the movie

If you are a male:
Add this phenomenon to the list of things you don't understand about females.

I Already LOVE Twilight

I read Twilight again on the way home from Kenya.
I haven't watched any previews in a month.
Ron bought Katie and I matching "Team Edward" shirts.
Katie Shannon bought us tickets for the 12:01 showing on Thursday night.
Good or bad I am committed to LOVING every minute of it.

4:45am Call Time

Ron, Katie and Abby are picking us up tomorrow at 4:45am to drive to LAX.

Katie and I are leaving tomorrow for 2 weeks to see Allison in Kenya.

You can read about Allison's adventures here...soon they will include us :)

How Could I Resist?

That Zac Efron...he is so adorable!

"It's Like a Time Capsule" - Josh Treece

As I was getting an inner-office envelope ready to send my credit card report I noticed some handwriting that looked familiar...my friend Julie's...but I thought that was weird because she hadn't worked at Saddleback for a couple of years now. Then I realized that this particular inner-office envelope had been in circulation since 2001! (Ange...even your name is on it!)

Happy Birthday To Me! (Part 3)

Celebrated my birthday along with Courtney and Adam's October birthdays at Benihana Friday night. You gotta love the onion choo choo train.

With My By Myself

Happy Birthday Allison!

I am sad we aren't in the same country to celebrate our birthdays,
but I am so glad we are friends!

Happy Birthday To Me! (Part 2)

On Friday Jonathan got me a Disneyland Pass for my birthday. A whole year at the Happiest Place on Earth. It was a great night mixed with Disneyland, friends, food and Fall weather.
I love my birthday!

Happy Birthday To Me! (Part 1)

Yesterday at small group we had a little impromptu birthday celebration. First Jenny came in with the most delicious looking (and tasting) mud pie, and then Alanna came with some Twilight cupcakes for my birthday that she decorated herself. As Jonathan was choosing which ones he was going to eat I couldn't stop staring at them. They are red velvet which is so appropriate for vampires and werewolves. They were too pretty to eat...so I enjoyed mud pie...but I saved one from each team to eat at a later time!

Team Edward

Team Jacob

Birthday Week?

The count down is on to my birthday. 5 days...
I've already done some birthday shopping with some birthday money that I have gotten. I bought some clothes and tomorrow this cute thing is supposed to be arriving.

Oh man...I really love my birthday!

I Don't Get It

As I was getting my nails done I read an article about a dog with two legs that walks upright. Faith the Dog. I don't get it. First of all the dog was born this way and the owner's picked her out of the litter (where the mom dog was trying to smother her mind you). Then they trained her to walk upright by holding peanut butter over her head. This is what I don't get...if it is that easy why don't all dogs just walk upright?

Also, the best part of the whole website is the following:
FAITH NEEDS TO BE IN A MOVIE ABOUT HER LIFE - FIRST LEGITIMATE (recognized professional) DIRECTOR/PRODUCER GETS THE JOB - We need to schedule this immediately before the book tour in Summer 2009. Hallmark, Lifetime, Fox, feature - it doesn't matter - the important thing is to get the story out for the millions of people who will be inspired. Are YOU a believer of the Law of Attraction? I am...this will happen, YOU may as well be involved! BELIEVE.

What do you mean she "needs" to be in a movie? I don't get it.

Colorado Was Wonderful!

Two Years

Two years ago I married my best friend! The person who makes me laugh the most. The person who believes in me the most. The person who challenges me the most.

To all the people that told me, "You'll love marriage!"
I know it has only been two years, but your right!

There is no one else I would rather spend my every day with!
