A Great Way to Celebrate...

 I just finished my final paper for the semester and decided to reward myself with some fun in the snow (after I was done shoveling).  It took me forever, but I was able to create this snowman.  My back and arms are pretty sore but I think it was worth it:)
 The reason he is on his side is because I made the 2nd ball too heavy and no one else was home to help me so I had to improvise.

Enjoy the snowy day!

Piano Guys Concert

One of the best birthdays ever! After enjoying an excellent Piano Guys concert, Anya and I waited around and got to meet them! When Anya told them it was my birthday that day, they sang to me (they can harmonize really well)!

All in all a great birthday! Thank You, God, for the way You over-abundantly blessed me!

My Sweet 16th Birthday Party

 The day began with decorating the cake with some of my best friends/cousins!

 It took quite a few hours to complete but I think it turned out quite well for our first cake attempt!
The cake on the left is the main cake and the one on the right we nicknamed scrappy because that's what he was made of!
 Thanks for the help girls!
I love this picture!
 
 We had a blast playing hours and hours of Scatterball!





 By suppertime, our cake got a little saggy!  Oh well, it gave it character.  LOL!
 One of my favorite parts of the afternoon was everyone taking turns at breathing helium!  Ill try to post videos sometime!

I cant change the background for my blog.  I've tried everything but it wont allow me, so it looks as if this is going to have to stay like this for a while.

C2C Senior High Retreat


 Last weekend, our senior high youth group members went to Creek Haven Retreat.
The bus was pretty packed.

 Here is a panorama picture I took of the place.

 We all slept in the colonial house.  Us girls got the 2nd floor entirely to ourselves complete with beds, while the guys slept downstairs on the wooden floor or, if they were lucky, a couch.

One of the upstairs bedrooms.  It was actually much larger than this ( complete with a queen bed and rocking chair ) but the room was a little too messy to take a picture.

The door to the library where some of the guys slept.  Unfortunately, there were no books in the library!

The living room where we gathered for devotions and late night games.

Mrs. Hardesty preparing for a meal.  We all had kitchen duties over the weekend but our leaders were the "overseers" and did a great job of keeping things organized.

I know during the weekend, the overall favorite part of the schedule was the breakaway time when everyone went somewhere where they could be alone.  During this time, we would study what we had just learned about in devotions and most importantly we would pray.  It was a great time for all of us to draw closer to God.

In the garage they had ladder-ball, a croquet set, pool, and ping-pong.

Ultimate Frisbee
The outdoor volleyball court was equipped with lights so we could play at night.

Inside the large barn there was air hocky, 1/2 of a basketball court, and a full length volleyball court.  This was probably everyone's favorite hangout.

Gathering for devotions.
Free time!

"Polo"
Riding their mighty broomstick steeds : )

Team competition.




Marshmallow wars.


Games of Jenga late at night were very intense.


The ride home was rather crazy. We made up strange stories as a group and sang little kid's songs ( including Tractor, Tractor ).
