MASON and SUSAN!!!

So this weekend my mom's friend, Susan, came with her 6 (alomost 7) month-old baby!! He was sooo...ADORABLE!!! He hasn't left yet, but I have some pics of him for you guys to look at!!! :D

God is AMAZING!

As most of you know, I was challenged at summer camp to witness to my cousin Lauren. When we were asked to think of someone to minister to she immediately came to my mind. Things weren't good at first. We had long conversations over IM and email. She believed in evolution, but didn't completely shoot down Christianity. She just didn't understand how the things in the Bible and God's creation could work. We sent emails back and forth periodically. And things weren't looking so hot until she told me she had started going to youth group on Wednesday nights. I was ecstatic! She wasn't completely convinced, but things were starting to look up. Later she told me that she was reading her Bible everyday and discovering more and more about our faith. She would occasionally ask me questions about certain things in the Bible, etc. Just recently I got and email from her saying that things were going pretty good in her life (much better than before, when I first talked to her her life wasn't the best.) and she was trying to switch at a place she volunteers at for a different time so she could go to church on Sundays. The other day I asked her if she was officially a Christian meaning she had asked Jesus into her heart and believe in everything. She said she would like to say she was, but wanted to know more about it and get baptised before she officially made that claim!!! What and awesome God we have!! I was soo..excited, and can't wait to hear more. I'll keep you posted!!

Saturdays

This is my first attempt at a blog, so bear with me. It's Saturday, and once again I am bored!!! No one is home except me and my dad, and he's sleeping. I got hungry this morning and decided I was going to try and make an omelet. It turned out okay, but it was kinda burnt.....whoops!! I also read a little. I've been reading this book called "Pure" by Terra Elan McVoy. It's about a group of friends who have all pledged their purity until marriage. It's really good, and makes me think about making the pledge myself. But now, after only being awake for 2 hours, I am bored again. Tonight I'm going to the PCS auction. They want all the 8th grade cheerleaders to help out. I have to be there for 3 hours!! But at least it'll be something to do. I thought I'd check this new blog thing out since I'm so bored, but really what are you supposed to do on a Saturday?!?! I'm waiting for my dad to get up so I can shower and get ready for the day, but it still hasn't happened. I guess I'll just have to wait and see what happens!
