The rest of my Crazy summer!!!!

Well, it has been way too long since I have gotten to blog...mainly because the rest of my summer was soooo busy with youth group things and baby things. I will take a few minutes to fill everybody in.

First, a week after I returned from Scotland Kyle and I headed up the Jr. High Work Camp for northwest arkansas. We had 4 churches and 120 jr. high kids; 8 houses; and 3 days to paint them all. It was a really successful event and I think that all of the teens really felt like they made a difference. We had a week to recover from that and then we headed to Pascagoula, MS with our Sr. High group for our mission trip. While it wasn't the most organized event(not b/c we weren't prepared) we did have fun and we got to meet a lot of new and interesting people. We did a lot of work and to top off the week on Tuesday of that week Robert called me and told me they ( him and Amanda) were having the twins that night.

The twins were safely delivered Tuesday night weighing 4lbs 5oz. and 4lbs 4oz.! Carden and Jeneveve are very cute..but we will get to that soon.

So back to my summer...the week after Sr. High Mission trip, Green Valley started where I was a counselor for the very first time. It was sort of sureal because my dad was in Phoenix with the twins and it was me and my brother Mark. I will say that it was neat to have my brother there and get to see him interact with the boys. It was a great week and but I was definatley ready to get some sleep. But my summer did not end there.

Andrew and Whitney's daughter Eden had come up to visit while they moved into their new house. So I got to babysit and then I took her back to Texas the day before I left for Phoenix and came back a few hours before my flight left....talk about a short trip but I was glad I got to see here because I'm not sure when I will see her again. She is five months old now..hard to believe...and she is a cutie!!!

The next Friday I left for Phoenix to see my brother and sister-in-law and the twins. I was there for a week and I felt like they grew so much in just the little while I was there. I will post some pictures a little farther down. So I returned from Phoenix and had 6 days to pack everything for school and get my mind around the fact I was about to start my senior year of college at the age of 20! Scary! So that was my summer in a nut shell....a very small nut shell! Now on to the pictures:
