CONGRADS!

baby Brigetta! congradulations Sis.Debbie and Bro.Rodney Burleson. I just received the information from sis.Linda that baby Brigetta came at about 3 something in the morning! this is the church's miracle baby, so I can probably predict this child will be spoiled rotten!xD

well, we got back safe and sound from raleigh. Unfourtunately, Erin didn't place for her presentation about guide dogs. there was another girl there who was giving a presentation guide dogs too, and she had been doing it for 11 years. I have to say, hers was excellent. but it's still pretty good for Erin to have gotten all the way to state on her first try :). afterward we visited the museum of science, which really neat. I took some fun pictures, which I can't get to because it's on sis.Owens camera and I don't have the usb cord, unfortunately. but the exhibits were pretty amazing. they actually had a whale's bone skeleton hanging from the ceiling! We took Jake with into the musuem and got stopped by a security guard. he was like "Now what's up with this dog?" and Erin of course said, "he's a guide dog in training..." but the man wasn't buying it. "Are you blind?" noooo. but anyway, we had to go back to the front desk were the gaurd was informered that yes, guide dogs and puppies in training are allowed in the building.

weee're back!

whew, I just got back from fellowship meeting. we were actually supposed to be around 12-something last night, but we got stuck in tons of traffic!! we moved on like, 15 miles (more or less) in three hours. what happened was a truck ran into this suv and killed I think it was an entire family. traffic was going so slowly one woman got out and walked her dogs, and these two boys got and played football on the side of the highway. anyway, the youth jubilee was a lot fun. the messages were very encouraging. I think if i never eat at taco bell or mcdonalds again in my life it will be too soon ;).well, i probably will have to, we're leaving for roliegh, (raleigh?) tonight. ugh, I am so tired. later

Shout out!

anyone like manga and fruits basket other than me?
I personally like yuki better than kyo because he seems more in control of his feelings. I think thoru is a sap because she acts soooo nice and polite all the time! but I think its good they put her in there with the kyo and yuki because those to are allways at each other's throat. anyway, I went to manga art class at the black mountain library monday, and got inspired! actually, the class went over the basics, positioning of the eyes...ect,ect. I made a couple of friends, Jb, ashton, and some others. the librarion promised to get more manga books which I think is great because...is this another run on sentence? anyway, I start college this fall!!

Viva la liberdad

So this is in response to all of the posts being put up about illigals in our country.
Remember these are still people...Not everyone who looks Hispanic are Mexican! Try calling any Hispanic on the street a Mexican and see what happens to yah... Also realize that you happen to live in a nice country, in a nice home, and everyone doesn't have that privilege. Did you know slavery still exists? Not something close to slavery...But slavery itself. So remember, just 'cause you have money and a house, and food when you want it...Everyone doesn't. This is not to say that its good to let people slip through the borders. I'm well aware that allowing that would be welcoming drug smugglers and others like them with open arms...But bashing Hispanic people simply because a crowd of them came to see fireworks on the fourth July was kinda harsh. You automatically stereo typed them because of how they looked. Please remember this in the future. God bless America.

my good days outweigh my bad.

I've been checking out other people's blogs and sites. goodness, I need to start blogging more. I'm so behind!! last night this guy came to our church and testified about how this other church he visited brought people in from the homeless shelter, and some other down-and-out places. then the preacher got making the racist jokes and said God was a racist. so the man was upset, and he gave a loooong testimony until bro. Charlse finally said it was time to move on with the service. it was mostly a testimony service. one thing that really stuck out in my mind...two things really, but the first is what bro.willie watkins said, which was. "My good days outweigh my bad," which I thought was amazing giving his situation. it inspired me to stop griping about all the little stuff that I think are so bad, and to be grateful instead that I'm in reasonable strength and help.
