Party, Party

This weekend was filled with non-stop fun and excitement. Friday night, I went to my cousin’s volleyball game that happen to be in town. She looked so cute in her little uniform and I couldn’t believe she was already in high school. It keeps blowing my mind. After the game, my cousin, aunt and I met up with Kevin for dinner at Texas Roadhouse. We didn’t end up eating until around 9:45, so I was starving but it was so good to have Roadhouse rolls. Since dinner was so late, we all didn’t get back to our house til around 11:00, so we pretty much all went to sleep. It was really good to get to see my aunt and cousin and catch up on things.

 

Saturday was pretty eventful as well. After my aunt and cousin left, I spent the afternoon working on blog stuff and answering emails. Then, my friend Lauren picked me up to get ready for our friend Jackie’s birthday dinner. It was Jackie’s 23rd birthday, so a lot of us girls all got dressed up and went to dinner to celebrate. Little did Jackie know, we had also been planning a surprise party for after dinner that included a lot of our guy friends as well. She was completely surprised so that was awesome to see her face.

 

After a late night Saturday, it was really hard to get up for church Sunday morning. But, Kevin and I really enjoyed church which was followed by a meeting and then by bible study prep at our house. Now, when did I rest? Um…. I didn’t (insert sad face here) Hopefully next weekend I get some rest! I hope your weekend was good!

  • Today is #WorldRefugeeDay. 🧡🌎Did you know that number of refugees has TRIPLED in the last decade, making this one of the most urgent and escalating global crises?

The Sudan Crisis is at the forefront. As of last September, over 14 million people have been forced from their homes due to the ongoing conflict - over half of them being children.

@WorldVisionUSA is responding with lifesaving support—and we can help!

We truly love @Splashway Waterpark so much!💦☀️ 10/10 always recommend #splashway because it’s so family friendly for all ages (toddler - adults).

Their slides are awesome. 😎 The dueling splash blasters are our favorite!

We rode so many slides this year and when we weren’t on a slide, we were in the lazy river or by the wave pool.🌊
