Well half the summer is already gone!! It has been amazing, but very busy!! Thankfully I have been busy with things that I love!
The first week we all packed up and went to El Paso for one of my cousin's wedding!! It was hot and the drive was long, but very very well worth it!! I got to see some amazing family, saw a lot of new sites, and had a bunch of fun!!
The second week, I went to a medical camp at our local hospital. It was probably the coolest camps I have ever been to!! We discected an eyeball(AWESOME!), sutured(stitched up) a banana, got to go into every part of the hospital, and learned how to start and IV and an IO. It was very much fun, and I will definatly be going next summer!!
In between then, I have been babysitting, babysitting, going to youth events at church, and we made one more trip to El Paso for another cousin's wedding!! It definatly has been busy, but at least I can say that I didn't waste my summer doing nothing!
This summer God has definatly been speaking to me in amazing ways. I have discovered a strong desire to go to China with the group from my church that goes every summer. I am hoping that I will be able to go sometime in the near future, but I will have to wait for God to reveal his timeing to me.
Also this summer, my youth group has been doing a book study on an amazing book called "Radical" by David Platt. I read it last summer, and loved it, but it is amazing to hear what my friends think of it. Last summer, the youth group did a book study on "Crazy Love" by Francis Chan, which I HIGHLY recommend!! It is an amazing book, and God spoke to me a lot through it.
It is hard to believe that half the summer is already gone!! This week will be the last week that I will be babysitting my sister. In two weeks, I will go to church camp in Denton! I am VERY excited about it!!! Last year we went to Tennessee, and it was an amazing experience!! The week after that starts summer band boot camp, and will go on into the school year. So that's my summer!! It has been fun!!! I hope everyone has a great rest of the summer!!!!!!! :)
