Wow!  I am tired!  It has been a busy 2 weeks!  Check-in has gone well though and there are so many fun girls here.  The RA's are great and have made things so easy.  I am excited about the possibility of sleeping in tomorrow.  I hope it becomes a reality.  It is kind-of nice that school is getting started again and there is somewhat of a more "predictable" schedule now...Andrew and I were able to just sit together on the couch tonight for a while.  We haven't been able to do that lately.  I am excited about this year and know that God has many great things in store.

Xanga can be fun!  It is great to read stories from Europe, Scotland, and anywhere else you can imagine!  I smile often reading...and also have many questions...Anyway, we are enjoying an empty dorm at the moment.  Not for long though.  Campus is a mess...as usual 2 weeks before school starts.  This will be a tough miracle to pull off but who knows!  I should definitely be in bed and really meant to be there at this point but got stuck.  We went bowling today...first time in a long time.  Lots of fun...

I am running away this weekend with some friends to Branson.  Woohoo!  I will run back on Sunday though.  I will be excited to run back to my family!  I miss you all and can't wait to see you and hear everything!

We have had a fun week.  We got back late Sunday night from Florida.  We went by Navarre Beach on the way home (played on the beach in Fort Walton Beach) to see the house my brother has been working on.  Wow!  It is on this tiny island that in many ways was almost leveled by the hurricane last year.  It was hard to tell what was damage from last year and what was from this year.  That is amazing...the force of a hurricane...more amazing that it is nothing compared to our God.  Andrew has not worked a ton this week and we have spent lots of family play time together.  Today we went to watch Herbie.  Our nephews are Herbie crazy so since it was rated G we thought we would go to the matinee.  Julianne and Maryella really did pretty well sitting through it.  They just are not "sit there" kinds of girls.  Tonight we went to church.  It was great to see my friends that I have not seen for so long!  We are going on a girls weekend to Branson next weekend and are very excited about that.  This weekend we are going to Missouri for my cousins wedding.  The girls are both flower girls.  Julianne loves being a flower girl. 

Oh, 2 of the guys that worked with us in Nicaragua were baptized the other day.  Jimmie and Diego.  Jimmy was kind of in charge of the work we did on a house (the heffe) and Diego is one of the translators working for the mission.  We are so excited.  Kelly I have pictures that Benny sent that I will try to get to you!

This is my longest entry.  I probably could write more but I don't want to!  I hope everyone has a great rest of your summer and a safe trip back to Searcy...or wherever.  Remember if you need ANYTHING we are here.

We are in Florida spending time with our family.  It is warm here too!  We went to Sea World yesterday and had a great and tiring time.  We leave for Arkansas tomorrow hopefully stopping in Pensacola to see Zach on the way.  Back to dorm life soon...

Today...because it is so late...we leave for Nicaragua.  My first trip (except for a couple of hours in Canada) out of the country.  I am a little nervous but not bad.  I am going to miss my girls though!  I am so thankful they are here with family.  After Nicaragua we all go to Florida.   I am pumped about that!  It will be so nice to see Jonathan, Carri, Jackson, Brett, and Clara.  The girls are very excited.  Anyway, I need to get to sleep...if I can.  I have issues sleeping the night before we leave for somewhere.  If you are reading this (Elizabeth...you are probably it!) pray for us.  Oh...we forgot to get Immodium!  UhOh.
