Well, I just watched a live video of Hello Hurricane from 99x.com, and I love it! I just have to show it to you, so here it is:

Ok, I am a few days late to tell you about Grubby Games, but oh well! Anyway, Grubby Games is an event that my youth group does each year. It is like the Olympics/fear factor... lol. Here are the games that my youth group did this year:
Water-balloon-covered-in-chocolate toss:
In this game, Noah chose to be the victim. All the rest of us were blind-folded. We had to try to throw chocolate covered water balloons at Noah while Obie (the youth pastor) was saying, "Marco!" and Noah said, "Polo!" He could try to dodge the balloons, but he did get hit a few times lol.
Inch Worm:
One person from each team got wrapped in plastic wrap, and we had to try to inch along the ground to a banana, eat it, and then inch back. I failed miserably lol.
Gross Apple Bobbing:
This one was just apple bobbing, but there was pork and beans in the water.... Just Noah and Bryson did it, and Bryson won! He was on our team.
Jello Tube:
With this one, Obie put jello in a curved tube. One person from each team stood on each end of the tube. Then, we tried to blow the jello to the other person so that it would go in their face lol. I won against Taylor... hehehe
Whipped-Cream-Cheese-Puff Toss:
With this one, one person from each team got their face covered in whipped cream lol. Then, the rest of their team had to try to throw cheese puffs and get them to stick to the whipped cream... lol
Spell With and Eat Spaghettios:
In this game, we had alphabet spaghettios, and we had to spell as many words as we could in three minutes. Then after that, we had to eat all the meatballs as fast as we could lol... good thing I like spaghettios!
Mystery Food:
In this game, we had to get a sandwich bag from Obie and eat whatever was inside... I ate sourcrout and... canned spinach... yuck!
Cameron's stomach couldn't handle the baby food... lol.
Horse and Cowboy:
In this game, two people from each team were horses and the other two people were cowboys. The horses had nylon... things...(idk what to call them lol) on their head so that an egg would stay on their head. The cowboys had to try to break the other horse's egg... lol. I didn't get my egg broken! Yay! lol
Pass the Lifesaver:
With this game, you had to try to pass lifesavers with straws... and it didn't work very well. Taylor got really nervous lol because at one point she was inches from Noah's face lol... it was funny to watch, and Heather (Obie's wife) took a picture of them... at least I think it was Taylor and Noah... Maybe it was Taylor and Isaiah... I don't remember... but anyway it was funny lol.
After all the games, we had pizza! Then we watched dvd's of Tim Hawkins, a Christian Comedian. I really laughed at this one:
And this one:
Oh my gosh poor Tim... lol. Maybe he should have brought his Bible with him...

I don't remember if I told you or not, but my youth leader, Heather, is going to have a baby in late August. I am so happy for them, because they have wanted a baby for 5 years now.
Yesterday, the church had a baby shower for Heather. First, we played two games. In the first game, you had to taste 8 kinds of baby food and try to guess what each of them were... it was nasty... I don't know how babies can eat that stuff! Then, in the second game, we were passing around "dirty diapers". They weren't really dirty... they had melted candy in them. We had to guess what kind of candy was in each diaper. That one really grossed me out because it looked like... something else... lol And, the diapers were warm because the candy had just been melted... yuck... lol
Then, Heather got to open her gifts. She got cute little baby outfits, baby toys, food bowls and spoons and forks, a toy box, diapers, a baby gate, tethers, and some blankets. All the stuff (except the diapers lol) was all so cute! After the baby shower was over I went and helped Obie (the youth pastor) work in our new youth buildings. We got them from a school that didn't want them, but there is a lot of fixing up that has to be done. Before we left the church, I gave Obie a hug, and I started laughing and saying "Eeeeeww!!!" because then my hands were covered in Obie sweat lol. But I didn't really mind lol. Anyway, I knew it was my fault lol. I was the one who gave him a hug lol.
You know, I just realised that I say lol a lot online lol. See, I just said it again! lol
Well, since it is 9:30 PM... I guess I better go to bed now lol.

On May 30th, I went to Big Splash! Just incase you don't know what Big Splash is, it is like this concert event at Wild Waves. For most of the day you can go on the rides and such, and then near the end of the day they close all that down and there are a few concerts. The bands that played this year were Amber Pacific, Canton Jones, Stellar Kart, and Jars of Clay I love Jars of Clay, and now I like Canton Jones too. I never heard of him before, but almost as soon as he started playing, I loved his music :-). I only wish Switchfoot could have been there too... I won't be able to see Switchfoot this year... :-(. I was going to go to a concert, but I decided I was going to go to a youth group camping trip :-).
This year's youth camping trip isn't at Creation Fest. It is near there, but it is somewhere called the potholes. We are close to a lake, and we are bringing one of our friends boats so we get to go water skiing and everything we can think of to do with a boat (except, like my youth pastor said, running eachother over lol). And of course we don't want to break the boat or anything... lol.
I hope that Heather's baby isn't born a month early, because if it is, it might be born at the camping trip... that wouldn't be too good... but then it would probably be like the old days, when sometimes you couldn't get to the doctors or the doctor couldn't come... if that happens, Obie will have to deliver the baby... :-/... lol. And the youth group would all be worried because we would hear Heather screaming... and Obie would probably freak out... ok ok ok... I need to calm down. That is probably not gonna happen. :-) But if it does, Obie will be there for Heather, and Baby Sorter.

I know, I know, I'm a month behind in doing a post on the Kutless/Esterlin/Disciple/Stellar Kart concert... but better late than never, right?!
Alright, I'll just put all the pics and tell what band each of them are:
Kutless
One of the people in Esterlyn
Stellar Kart (sorry for the fuzziness!)
Kutless
Kutless
Kutless (again, sorry for fuzziness)
very, very small part of the crowd...
One of the people in Kutless
Kutless yet again:
Ok. Other than that, not much is going on right now. Well, my youth pastor came back from Everett, and that's great!

I am so thankful to God. He let me see my big brother today. Now, we are not blood related. You see, he is my big brother in Christ. And he is also my youth pastor. He had to go work in Everett at the beginning of the month, and at first we thought that we wouldn't see him until he got back, which would have been two months... But God let him come to church this Sunday! I am so grateful for that. So is Heather (sheis his wife so I sure hope so lol).
Today my little sister turned 7. Time is going by so fast, it's scary sometimes. But Danielle is really excited to be 7 now (and that she got a whole bunch of presents lol).
Yeah, I know that I said my next post would be about Kutless. Well I will get to that I promise. In the next post I will. I promise.

It has been a LONG time since I posted a blog entry... lol. Sorry about that... lol A lot of things have happened since my last blog entry. The first thing is that I got all 5 of Jon Foreman's EPs!! They are absolutly awesome!! Here are a few of the songs from them:
I just love these songs!!
The next thing that happened was that I went to a winter retreat with my youth group. It was really fun! We went to Mt. Baker and we stayed at the Bibleway Lodge. Our youth group had a little cabin with two rooms in it. One side was the girls' side, and one was the boys' side. We slept there Friday night and then the next morning went to the chapel. We listened to the message, and then some people came up who were pretending to be a band called "Fire and Ice". I got a picture of them in their costumes lol: Then off to Mt. Baker!!! We headed off into the snow (the snow was so deep that if you sank all the way into it it would probably come up to your waist lol), and then my leg sunk into the snow! I pulled it out and my boot was gone! So Tasha (one of my really good friends), Andrew (one of the youth leaders), and I dug and dug in the snow and finally got it out. But it was filled with water because there was a lake under the snow that was not frozen!! I got a picture of the hole too lol: So I had to sit in the van lol. And a different Andrew (not the youth leader, but a youth member {there were two Andrews lol}) completely lost his shoe and he couldn't find it so he had to sit in the van too because he didn't have any other shoes. I didn't either. So we both had to borrow an extra pair of somebody else's shoes for the rest of the trip... lol While I was sitting in the van, I got a few more pictures: Then we drove back to the cabin and went to the chapel. Then we went back to the cabin again and went to sleep. The next morning we packed up, went to the chapel one last time and heard the last message that we were going to hear on that trip, and then left. OH, and of course we had food there too lol.
The next thing, is that tomorrow, I am going to be going to a Kutless concert in Seattle with the youth group!! :-D I'm excited for it. And I'll take pictures!
Today, I am suffering my second day of pink eye... :-P It is no fun... it feels as if my eyes are slowly drying up... but the doctor gave me some special eye drops to put in my eyes. He said that after 24 hours of having the eye drops in my eyes I won't be contagious, and then the pink eye will be better in about a week.
Also I feel really bad for my youth pastor Obie and his wife Heather. You see, Obie's work made him go to Everett for two months. He still has about a month to go. He can't see Heather and she can't see him for that amount of time, because he can't come back here until March 22. The only way they would see eachother is if Heather went to Everett, but she has her work here too so she can't really do that. But, at least it is not like when Obie went to Hawii for a business trip a few or so years ago. He was gone for like 5 or 6 months on the business trip, and it's obvious he couldn't come back here until the business trip was over, and Heather obviously couldn't go to Hawii.
Well, I guess that's all for now. My next entry will probably be about the Kutless concert, so... get ready for that lol

I am just so thankful for all of my awesome friends. Especially my youth pastor. He is one of the most awesome friends anyone could ever have. He explains things to me so I understand them, he loves us, he loves God, and I love him. He is a friend who will always be there for me when I need help, or when I just need some encouragement. My youth pastor, Obie, is the best youth pastor anyone could have, and he is also one of the best friends anyone could have. I am so thankful that God gave me such wonderful friends.

Remember that one entry I had, "I LOVE HAWK NELSON!!!!!!!!!!"? Well, Hawk Nelson was my favorite band.... then. But now, my favorite band is....
And if you want to know practically EVERYTHING about the band... here is a fan site. It tells basically everything about the band! You don't have to see it all in one day though... I still haven't explored the whole site yet.... lol. Ok.... here is the site: Land of Broken Hearts (click here)
So if you check out that site, I am sure you will at least get an appreciation for the band. They are AWESOME!!!

I am so happy for my youth leaders, Obie and Heather! They have been praying to have a baby for about 4 or 5 months now, that I know of. Heather just found out that she is going to have a baby! I found out today at church.
I think that if Obie and Heather can be such great friends as they are, they will be wonderful parents. I am just so happy for them!
Obie says that he really wants a boy! He wants a little Obie running around lol. But, we'll see! Heather can't really choose which it will be.

Wow. I can't believe that it is already 2009. I remember events that happened at like the beginning and middle of 2008, and it seems like they were all just yesterday. Time flies. I wish it would all slow down for a little while. Let me catch up in my life. It seems like I am running behind, and not able to catch up.
Talking about slowing things down, I also wish that some moments could be here forever. There are some moments with people that I love so much, and it seems like those moments are all just too short. I wish they could last forever. Or at least a little longer.
Things in this life might start to get scary, but with Jesus we can make it through. That is what I need to remember in this life; that we can make it with God's help. God always offers his help to us, but much to often we refuse it because we think we can do it on our own. I think something that we all need to remember is that we can't do anything without Jesus.

There is just so much snow latley. This morning it was 7 inches! The most we usually get is like one or two inches, so seven was A LOT for us. Here are some pictures of our snow day today:
Our dog Spunky:
My brother Samuel, me, Frosty the Snowman (just kidding), and my little sister Danielle:
Our bush gave up. It dropped its branches and said, "I can't take all this snow anymore!" (not literally lol):
So as you can see, we had fun in the snow. And we will probably not be able to drive anywhere for the rest of the week lol. Well maybe.

For me, it is so much fun to look back on memories of youth group trips. One year, the youth group went to one of our friend's houses, and we camped out in their back yard because close to their house, there was a big lake. We spent the whole day at the lake, swimming, playing, and having loads of fun. My youth pastor almost lost his shoe lol. It fell in the water while he was walking on a bridge that went over the lake. I had to toss it back up to him so he wouldn't lose it lol. We also brought a watermelon to eat, but we forgot a knife. So we threw it on the ground and ate whatever looked clean!
Three years in a row, the youth group went to Creation Fest. Creation Fest is a three day music concert with camping, games, concerts almost all day long, and all the music there is Christian music, because it is a Christian festival. In 2007, the whole place ran out of water because so many people were using it for like water guns and stuff like that. When they got the water back, we had to use it only for drinking, and we all knew not to waste the water next year lol. I also got Switchfoot's autograph this year at Creation Fest (and Hawk Nelson's and Jeremy Camp's autographs)!
Then, there are also a lot of happy memories just being with the youth group. We always have fun together, no matter if we are going on a trip or not.

There is a Switchfoot song that I listen to alot, called "On Fire". In part of the song, it says, "I've been standing on the edge of me,....". That is kinda how I have been feeling latley. I was standing on the edge, overwhelmed with thoughts, emotions, and worries. Now, I have fallen off the edge. I am falling deeper and deeper into a pit.... when I go to the youth group, it feels as if I manage to grab onto a ledge and get my footing, starting to climb back up again. But then like the next day, I lose my footing and start falling again, and I know I am getting closer and closer to the bottom of that pit. I just am in a state where I really need some prayer. I need to be able to grab onto the edge, pull myself up, and get out of the pit. Please pray for me.

I just finished my Historical Narrative. Here it is:
The First Kentucky Derby
My name is Oliver Lewis. I was born in 1856 in Fayette County, Kentucky. All through my childhood, I had loved horses. Even though I wanted one, my mother and father did not have enough money to get me one.
Around the age of 15, I met a man named McGrath. He owned a stud farm in Kentucky. Two of his horses, Aristides and Chesapeake, he was planning to race. He was sure Chesapeake would win, for he was larger then Aristides, who was a small horse.
Both horses were beautiful. Aristides was chestnut-colored with a white star on his face and two white socks on his hind legs. Chesapeake was a bay horse, much bigger than Aristides was. McGrath thought Chesapeake was much stronger because of his size.
Mc Grath trained me for four years, teaching me how to ride, control, and race a horse. It was a lot of work, but I was enjoyed it. I was with horses more than I ever thought I would be.
When I was 19, there was a new race in Churchill Downs called the “Kentucky Derby”. McGrath said I could ride Aristides, and another jockey, Bobby Swim, would ride Chesapeake.
When it was race day, I was quite nervous. About 10,000 people came to watch the race. There were 15 horses racing, including Aristides and Chesapeake.
The race started and we were off. Chesapeake was struggling in the pack, trying to catch up. Aristides was closer to the front of the pack, gaining speed, catching up with the leading horse, Volcano.
Soon, the race was mainly between Aristides and Volcano. I looked back to see where Chesapeake was, because I knew that he was supposed to win, not me. Then I saw McGrath waving me on, so I concentrated on the race again.
Volcano soon fell behind Aristides, and whenever he or some of the other faster horses tried to catch up with Aristides, it seemed as if Aristides always had more speed in him. Volcano kept trying to take the lead again, but Aristides was keeping his lead.
The race was almost over. Just a few more paces ahead! Zip! Aristides ran under the finish wire with Volcano two lengths behind and Chesapeake in eighth. It had been such a great race that I went on to do more races, not just the Kentucky Derby. Aristides might have been small, but he was a very fast horse.
What did you like about my narrative? What did you dislike about it? What is something I should watch for on my next piece of writing?
Romans 12:1-2 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service.

I just finished my phase Autobiography. It is titled, "The Right Love". Here it is:
The Right Love
As I was looking through my personal diary, to look back in my life, I ran across this date: March 30, 2008. Shocked at what I was reading, I almost burst into tears.
You see, I had just figured out, from reading what I had written in my diary five months before, that I had now had a crush on my pastor, Joel Kirtley, for almost five months now. I had been trying for a few weeks to get rid of this crush. Never did I realize, though, that I had this crush for so long. Joel was married and had five children, so I had to get rid of this crush.
Nothing seemed to be working. I talked to my Mom, and to one of my youth leaders, Heather. Heather had said that I should give it to God, and start reading his word, the Bible, more often. So I prayed about it, asking God to take this crush away from me, and I started reading the Bible daily. Finally, the crush was gone. Yet, I still felt that I needed to talk to Joel about it.
All too soon, it was Sunday. My heart wanted to explode out of my chest as I walked over to the sanctuary to talk to Joel. Feeling like making excuses not to talk to him about it, I was convinced my stomach was doing summersaults, my heart was an execution drum, and there was a lump in my throat. I was scared, because even though my crush on Joel was gone, I still had a feeling that I should ask him for forgiveness. Terrified, I was worried that he would be enraged at me.
Joel saw me and said, “You look like you feel absolutely horrible.” Nodding my head, I knew I had to do this, but I also knew it would be very hard. Would he be angry? Would we be friends anymore? Those were the questions, racing through my head, making me feel like running away.
“You were talking about forgiveness in your sermon today,” I said as I sat down next to Joel, trembling. “That made me realize I need to ask you for forgiveness. Now, I don’t have this anymore, because I prayed to God and He helped me get rid of it, but I had…” All of a sudden, the words would not come out of my mouth. It felt like they were stuck in my throat. This conversation was so much harder than I thought it would be!
“Let me guess,” said Joel. “You had a crush on me.” At that, I cringed, and wanted to disappear. I was thinking how horrible having a crush on him was, because he was married and had children. Thinking he was going to be furious with me, I felt like getting up and running away.
What he said next amazed and relieved me. “It’s okay,” he said. “Actually, I’m flattered! I am also proud of you for being brave enough to ask me for forgiveness. Most people probably wouldn’t be able to have done that.”
Wow, I thought. He is not mad at me! I walked away from that discussion feeling much better than I had before.
The next Sunday, as I watched and listened to Joel teaching, it felt so good not to have a crush on him anymore. I learned two things from my crush on Joel. It is so much better to have the right kind of love for each person, and it feels so good to be forgiven. It is a good thing I was looking in my journal, so I would grasp that it had been that long and that I needed to get rid of my crush. From now on, I will try my hardest not to let something nonsensical like a crush get between Joel and me again.
So, what did you think of my autobiography? What did you like about it? What did you dislike about it? What is something I should be careful of in my next piece of writing?

You never know how much you care for someone until something happens to them, or you are afraid something might happen to them. I found this out two times in a row. First with my youth pastor Obie. He recently got a new motorcycle. On Wednesday, he didn't show up at Bible study, and he didn't answer his phone when I called him. I thought something might have happened with his motorcycle while he was driving. It turns out that Obie is fine.
But today, I just found out something about my pastor, Joel. My Mom got this in her email:
Please pray for Joel. He went to have a cat scan today because he's had a cough for quite a long time.
It showed that he has a spot on each of his lungs, and another abnormality on his thyroid. This is all the information he has at this time. Things need to be cleared by his insurance. He will keep us updated.
He is a very blessed man, used by God to reach the hearts of people all around him, and tell them about Jesus. Please pray a hedge of protection around Joel and his entire family. The enemy is out to seek and destroy, but we're stronger than him through the power of Jesus living in us and in Jesus name.
I would just like to ask you all to pray for Joel. He is a wonderful man, and I love him (as one of my best friends, and a brother in Christ).

School has started again. I have been busy for the past few weeks, that is why I have not been on here. I have these classes:
number of things:subject
1:Bible
2:French
1:Math
3:Language Arts
1:History
1:Geography
I get up at 6:00 AM, take a shower, and start school. That way, I get done around 11:00 AM - 1:00 PM. Except on Tuesdays. On Tuesday, I do some of my school in the morning, but then I leave with mom around 9:30 AM to help her clean houses. That is her (and my) job.
Soon, I will be getting a digital camera. I am saving money (about $300) to buy one. It is a Kodak. It is also the same as my mom's, so I will have to put a sticker on mine or something like that, so we don't mix them up. I can't wait! After I get it, I will be able to put my pet entry on here, because I will be able to take pictures of all my pets. I am thinking I will also get some good pictures of my family.
This Wednesday, I am going to be singing on stage for the worship, just like I did before. My Grandma is also coming! :-D But then, I will have to make a choice.
I can stay for Joel's sermon, or I can go with the youth group to yipi bubble tea. I want to go with the youth group, but at the same time, I want to listen to Joel's sermon. At first, I thought, "I could just listen to it online," because on the church website there are the sermons. But the person who is supposed to put them on hasn't put them on for a while. The last chapter Joel did was Acts 28. But the last one on the website is Acts 22, and that might have been up to 3 months ago, because Joel doesn't even cover a whole chapter each Sunday! I don't know what I am going to do yet. I am thinking I might go with the youth group, becasue the sermon will be on the website some time (maybe).
The blog of a girl who loves Jesus, Switchfoot, Jon Foreman, Hawk Nelson, horses, reading, drawing, dogs, cats, all other animals, telling stories to my younger brother and sister, hanging out with friends, and many other things.
. Just Noah and Bryson did it, and Bryson won! He was on our team.
Then off to Mt. Baker!!!
So I had to sit in the van lol. And a different Andrew (not the youth leader, but a youth member {there were two Andrews lol}) completely lost his shoe and he couldn't find it so he had to sit in the van too because he didn't have any other shoes. I didn't either. So we both had to borrow an extra pair of somebody else's shoes for the rest of the trip... lol
