What I Would Do With a Day Off

It's been about a month and half since I've had some time to myself, and this morning I woke up a little early to have some down time and I wish I could spend the rest of my day in the state I have been in. This is what I would do:

Finish reading Exodus
Finish reading Mere Christianity
Finish reading Holding Hands Holding Hearts
Write thank you cards to the Johnson's, Marr's, Renee, B, Brittney, Jaime, Bettina, Caitlin
Go through my unnamed songs in my itunes and get the song and artist information
Take a nap
Make a delicious lunch
Listen to Cornerstone sermons I'm behind on
Write down the adventures I've been having all summer and reflect

I'm not complaining about all the things I've been doing that have prevented such a day, because they have all been filled with wonderful people, time and experiences, I'm just a little tired and drained. However, today I am going to go to church at Lakeside Worship in Polk City, hang out and Saylorville and hopefully continue learning how to drive motorcycle thanks to my wonderful teacher (my cousin Mike).

Okoboji Trip

I have lots and lots to talk about, but I just had a pretty great trip and would like to document it to make sure it can have an anniversary trip soon.

We went on motorcycle rides, boat rides, jet ski rides. Pulled an all-nighter with Brittney Bunce and B Stone because we were to excited and energized by our God-talks. We tried to watch the sunset, climb a water tower, and break back into the house (we got locked out). Had quiet time with Jesus and Brittney Bunce. Accidentally crossed into the MN border on the way home. Read outside soaking up the 100 degree, 85% humidity weather for an hour. Went to camp with B and was able to see a snippet of her summer life. Mini golfing at Pirate's Cove, Blue bunny ice cream, pizza ranch. ALMOST ate a piece of steak, but I'm still vegetarian.

Once I get a converter for my memory card I'll be sure to post pictures. And write about my summer- I've just been having way too much fun to be on my computer!
