July 11, 2008 - Everybody cut loose, with Kutless, Air1 is sending you...
Well Day Camp is done and over with. *sniff* It was a lot of work, but a lot of fun. Wednesday we went skating and my "adopted" 5yo, "Boo", skated long and hard and I was kept busy with her and "Sissy" (the 7yo). It was tiring, but fun. Boo fell asleep on my shoulder on the way back to the church, and I carried her in and sat down and held her for about a half hour without her waking up... she's so sweet though... I just hope I was able to make a difference in their lives in the four days that God gave me. After the kids left we stuck around for youth... I shot a few hoops with Chrysa... then we had a good service. If you would, though, pray for our youth group. We have a big even coming up in about a month and a half and we are not focused enough at all. Lana brought me a shrug and some fabric Wednesday that she thought might go with my pritsy dress and the shrug will work!!! And it's soooo pretty!! It's white lace and... pretty!
Yesterday we took them all to the water park.... it was fun and I'm sure I built up my leg muscles with all the zillions of trips up the stairs to go down the slide. And, I got sunburned again really bad. I'm sure to get skin cancer.... :P
Here's me and Boo and Sissy at the bowling alley:

Today we took Stuffy and went to see the American Girl Kit Kittredge movie. It was pretty good. It was really funny. Then we went to Sams and WalMart... Stuffy and I had a lot of fun and it was cool. ;)
Here's Stuffy and I with the sign for the movie:

Tomorrow we're prolly going out for lunch and then shopping to celebrate my parents' birthdays... Dad's was yesterday and Mom's is Sunday. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! (I won't tell you how old they are... but it's more than 40 and less than 42... LOL)
I'm still working on things for the fair... I was cross-stitching the serenity prayer... and I just realized that I did a whole row of words twice... I'm not real happy, b/c now I have to take all those out, and that's difficult and time-consuming. *sigh* So I took the easy-for-now route of putting it down and finding something else to occupy my mind. So here I am.
Here's a pic of one of the flipflops I decorated... I wrapped embroidery floss around the straps and strung beads on it, and used a cloth flower off of a lei to put on the top/front/whateveryoucallit.

And here's a watercolor painting I did:

Here's the original pic I looked off of (I found it on my computer):

Here's a still life I set up to draw...except you can't see the envelope:

And here's a pic of the drawing, but it didn't turn out too well:
Everyone is getting a baby!!! Ok, not everyone. But lots!!! Lana, Meggy, and Toria all get little sibs... and several ppl at church.... and... just lotsa ppl!!!! Exciting!!!
Oh and here's a pic I took of myself... sorry Lana, no smile...

Well I think that's all for now.
Luvya'll,
~*EMY*~
