And the countdown begins!

Well, a week from this time exactly I will be boarding a plane for Detroit that will eventually get me to Edinbourgh, Scotland. I am soooo excited, but overwhelmed at this point. I got my international student ID and my plane tickets this week. So natuarally I started packing ( I mean really packing...in a suitcase, instead of making list after list) a few days ago. My dad walked into my room and said "are you already packing...you don't leave for two weeks"..I very seriously looked up at him and said "yes...but I leave in 10 days..not 2 weeks."

Let me update you on what has been going on lately...

My mom went out to Phoenix until Saturday to help Robert and Amanda...
I've been working at Robinson Ave. and we just had our Senior Sunday and Senior Roast.

While I'm sad that I'm going to miss the month of June with the youth group, I'm okay with it becasue I know they are in good hands. The senior girls are awesome and they have such a passion to encourage others and be a light everywhere they go. Also the senior high boys are as amaing as the girls. They want so badly to be leaders and really step up as leaders in not only our youth group but also in their schools, and at Robinson Ave. as a whole. I know Kyle will have everything under control and I can't wait to hear from them while I am in Scotland so they can keep me in the loop.
Oh, I can't forget our Jr. High group. Each of them hve more energy than I could every grasp, but because they have that energy I know they will be great encouragers for Kyle and for the others in the youth. I know that they can and will make an influence this summer and the next few years!

Well, that is about all that is going on in my world, I hope and pray that each of you will continue to let your lights shine and the Godly influence that each of you are in my life! Love ya bunches!
