As you can see I have changed the background design for my blog! They have so many new templates! It's awesome, but I ended up picking this one. If you know the story of It Is Well, you know that it had something to do with water. If you don't, look it up!
I can't believe we are heading up to Nh in just 4 days! I can hardly wait, it seems like yesterday was winter carnival! But anyways, it has been really hot here, and I can't wait to get up there and go swimming, etc.
We have been up to a lot since the last time I wrote, so I will try to cover as much of it as I can without loading you with stuff to read! First of all, back at the beginning of June, we got to help out at a Wedding reception (Susanna and I) for someone who used to come to our Church. That was really fun since we don't really ever get to do that stuff.
We have had a lot of graduations this year, but I think they are all done for the summer now. 4 from our Church, a friend and a cousin. We went to Steve's (cousin) on Saturday. It was good to see all the cousin's and have some fun. I got to try the unicycle again... I was getting pretty good at it, if only we had one that I could try here, I would probably be able to do it!
On Friday June 18th we had a big "teen bash." When we first got to the Church at around 2:15, we split up into teams (boys against girls), and went out on a scavenger hunt... Taking pictures of the "team" with different things. For example the whole team near a fountain,... The whole team with a boat in the background... The whole team with a convertable... And a bunch more (about 20-30 things to do). So, that was really fun, and they never really said a winner, but we all think the girls won. Lol. Anyways...
Next we came back to the Church and ate a delicious meal prepared by Ann Marie Smith and Becky Galvin! Yum! Thanks to both of you in taking the time to do that for us! After supper we all went into the teen room and watched all the pictures that were taken. I hope to maybe get them, so we can have them to remember, cause it was really fun!
Next stop? Mulligan's Mini Golf! We had a good time there, and out of all the people, three girls got a hole-in-one (me being one of them), and NO boys! Yay! Haha. After that we were going to go to the new Kimball's ice-cream that is near us, but someone from the Church told us that it was Hot-rod night, and we would have had to wait 3-4 hours in line! Can you believe it? So, we went to Market Basket instead to get some half gallons of ice-cream, toppings, etc. Then we headed over to the Owens to play games, eat dessert, and other snacks, until we got tired of each other and wanted to go home! Well, we ended up leaving at mid-night! But, we had a lot of fun, and learned some new games, that we can't wait to play again sometime hopefully! So that's that!
We have this "bulletin" at our Church called the scoop and it is written by teens... they have a activity central where someone writes about the last activity that happened, they have a parents corner, picture of the month, things that are going on this month, teen talk back (I know doesn't sound too good), what teens are saying, where someone asks a question, and a bunch of teens answer it, and then also a teen testimonie. This month I am writing the testimonie for the scoop! So, maybe once I get that finished, I will post what I wrote on here, sound good? Okay, deal!
Hmmm, anything else new. I'm sure there is, just nothing I can think of off the top of my head. If I remember anything that we did that was really exciting I'll let you know, but for now we have just been packing and getting ready to head up to Alton Bay on Friday!!!!!!! :)
Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you come again real soon! (That being said, I hope to have more blogging going on also! :D)!!!! Have a great night, and a wonderful week....
With His Love,
