Shaking in my boots!

Today is the day! I am going to have to try to describe one of my best friends with just a few words at her 13th Birthday Ceremony. I have been going through some pictures and videos we have taken in the past years. OH MY WORD!!!! We have had some HILARIOUS moments! I watched the videos again and I was laughing so hard I was crying! She won't let me post any though....I am surprised she still likes me after the pictures I have posted of her already. :) When we are together we have the time of our lives. Sometimes I forget she is 4 years younger than me though...which is a good thing! ;) Alaina, when you read this (and I know you will because I am posting more pictures. lol!) I want you to know I love you and I will always be here for you. I know we have had our up's and down's together but friendship is about sticking together through it all...and we are certainly still living. :) I hope you have a great birthday celebration! P.S. Don't forget to sneeze....I will bring some kleenex's with me! :)

Alaina's first youth trip as a teenager! 2010

~Heritage 2010

Heritage was great this year! The night services were UH-MA-ZING! Definitely changed my life for good! I got to hang out with some great friends from my youth group and with some of my best friends from out of town and got to meet more friends! I had a fun experiance at the hotel too! :) Let's just say we had a VERY grumpy neighbor who threatened to call the police on us if we didn't quit talking because she had to get up at 4:00 am....scared everyone half to death! On the way back our plane got delayed with us on it (they had to call out some people to look at it). Michelle was kind of freaking out about it and i was having fun at her expence! :) I made sure I didn't tell my mom about our delayed plane until I got home and I am glad I didn't because she freaked out and I wasn't even on the plane! :) The nature of a Mother...espcially since this was my first trip to ride a plane! :) Here are several of pictures....the rest will be posted on my Face Book.
