Updates Galore

So... if you could not tell already, I am absolutely HORRIBLE about updating my blog! Sorry about that! Life has just been so crazy lately! Between wedding planning, applying for teaching jobs, and working full time at V.E., I have just been so swamped. I come home exhausted everyday but I would not change it for the world! :)


As far as wedding planning, I have the church and reception venues booked. I have the caterer, photographer, and florist booked as well. The last "big" thing to do, I suppose, would be to book the DJ. I just want someone who I can give a list of songs to and they will play them. Music is SO incredibly important to me, so it is important that I find a good DJ who will play the music that I want. This is one area I will not budge.



June 16, 2012 seems so far away. I am just SO ready to be married to Ben! I can't believe that this September will be 6 YEARS of dating! I feel like we have been together forever and yet it has flown by at the same time! I am so thankful that God brought us together. I cannot wait to see what He has in store for us in the years to come! Hurry up June 16! :)


My fourth summer at Camp Vertical Extreme began June 1. I have about 30 campers registered to my & Bryan's group. We average about 19 campers per day. It often fluctuates between 18 and 22. They are definitely a rowdy group of campers (one of the rowdiest I have seen) but I love them. They teach me something about myself and God every single day. Being a counselor at Camp V.E. is such a blessing & I am so thankful to have the job that I do. :)


Earlier today, my friend Kourtni & I went garage saling. I cannot believe that a year has already gone by since the last time I got to go garage saling! Life is flying by faster than I ever remember! Anyways, I bought thirteen books for $5.50 to add to my classroom collection. The topics varied in nature from seasons to planets to having a good attitude to the first day of school. Quite a wide variety of topics but hey, what choice do you have when you don't know what/if you will be teaching in the fall? :)


I also got to see Kung Fu Panda 2 this evening. It was pretty good. Not a waste of money but not a movie I'd probably watch again. Confusing, I know. :)

Anyways, I better wrap this up. I have been running at a million miles per hour the past month and am contemplating heading to bed early. Until next time! :)
