The days are packed with stuff

Helo once again  viewers - last time we left off (when Noah was writing) he talked about youth camp which was long ago. Julia is at creation after youth camp! We are working on a 1000 piece puzzle, we are doing pretty well and will finish it some time this summer.  Also tomorrow we have our exchange student from Spain coming! I-am excited.

Hello once again readers for the first time. The first time is for the different person writing (Noah) and the once again for the previous blogs by previous authors.  Last week I was listening to sermons at Youth Camp (eating more gummy bears with my braces) and playing gaga ball non stop at  the new gaga ball court at our church.  Today nothing happened ( besides me working on a puzzle and other electronic free stuff and having my base ball game canceled). However, on saturday I had three baseball games in one day. My league is so sports crazy!  I was catcher the whole first game (it was hot). Game two I pitched (it was hot).  Then I moved back to catcher the whole third game (it was hot).  My friends, especially Cameron, (Who I hope doesn't read this blog) say I don't have a life (he is the one with no life). One of the reasons is probably this blog, nevertheless,  I know they are wrong. Youth camp then three baseball games pretty much gives me something to do other than read and work on puzzles.  I am also looking forward to a canoe trip for Boy Scouts which you will hear about tomorrow.
                 Have a good day, if you sneezed while you read this, bless you

Youth Camp!!

Well... this past week has been a.m.a.z.i.n.g. Once again, God met the teens in a beautiful way at Youth Camp!  This year, I (julia) was on the yellow team (GO MINIONS!!!), with some amazing people.  Christi Boronow was my girl counselor, and she encouraged me SO much in our discussion group time, giving insight, verses, and Godly wisdom.

On the personal side, I was yet again convicted to lay EVERYTHING on the table for Christ!  In our pride, this is one of those things that we are tempted to believe we already are doing, or WORKING towards.  We are tempted to leave only 75% (or less) of our life for the Lord, but the other 25% is just is the world and our sin.  This is a dangerous thing for the believer!  The gospel changes our whole heart, not just part of it, just as our salvation called for God's FULL wrath!

I am sooooo thankful that God yet again awoke me from my stupor, bringing me back to my full desperation for Him: the gospel!

Youth camp and friends house

In a week we are having a student from Spain coming at our house for a month.  2 years ago we had a Japanes student for a week but this is a month!  me and David and my mom are the only people home, Because Julia and Noah are at youth camp and my dad is at work.  So today, my mom served lunch at youth camp while David and I went to a friends house.

Spanish student and a story of Rex

Today Julia and Noah went to youth camp (a tradition my church does ). We had to go to a meeting to learn more about our Spanish student coming to our house for a month.She is coming in a week we are looking forward to it. She is 18 years old (but she looks like she's 16).

Today a UPS man came and delivered a package, my dog Rex jumped into the car and started wagging    
his tail!! The UPS guy said, sorry, I don't have any treats today.Then he started driving away and Rex got out. That was the first time I saw that.

David

It was amazing amazing amazingggg!!!!! The women who played Elphaba and Glinda had very rich, lovely voices, and Glinda was hilarious! It was defiantly a memory we'll look back to in awe:)

The times in stuff

Today we ate lots of junk food and Noah had gummy bears with his braces! Bad boy! We did all kinds of stuff today, like playing mini golf,going to the new Cabellas in town, (it was awsome) watching movies, playing video games (even though we are not supposed to). We also went Figaro hunting - chasing him down the stairs and up the stairs and finnaly cornering him so that we could hold and rub him. (Most of the time he is a freindly cat).  Every thing is so close by you are never doing nothing at my Grandma's house.

Yesterday Julia thought that pickels were diffrent than cucumbers!!!She thought the farmers picked them. She said to my brother Andrew, they grow like cucumbers. It was a blond moment in our house.

Now we eat a lot of junk food now that we are at my grandma's house.Everthing is close to us we are going to see Wicked !!!(It's about the Wizard Of Oz.)On friday we are going water skiing with my dad's friend.                                    David
