happy late Independence Day

This 4th of July marked some significant happenings here with our family. Not only was it my sister Michaela's 21st birthday but her boyfriend Brian purposed to her. He had told us about it about a week ago and we were trying to keep silent until yesterday.. it was definitely difficult. 

 






on another note. I am proud to live in the country that I live in. I was blessed to be born in the United States of America where I am free to be who I want and write or say what is true. I know that things  seem to be taking a turn for the worst right now but I have to be positive and believe we will go back to the America I know we once were. The America countless men and women have died for. God Bless America and all those who call her home.

The one outreach that sticks out in my mind and I'm sure everyone else's was when we went to CASITA MUJERES. It was a "home" for young girls from the ages of maybe 6-18. On this day Pastor Chace asked me if I would give my testimony. Now in my head I'm thinking "are you serious" but I of course say yes. This is my first time ever to give the story of what made me who I am today. That whole day I was so nervous, anyone who knows me also knows that I'm not one to really get nervous about anything. Just the thought of exposing who I am to a whole crowd of people including those from church and my siblings, it just made me feel vulnerable. Our bus is driving on down the road to our destination when we notice a traffic jam. Great it's already hot and sweaty and now there is no movement for the air to circulate through the bus. I guess it was exactl
