Week of Wonders...

So, I've been back a week, and today's a holiday... yippee :) It's been a busy week. So, here are some pics to catch you up...
First, the Lady Bears basketball game against OSU on Wednesday, the ladies of course kicked butt! Those are the games that I like to go to...

Yah, cheer em on girls

Go Bears go!

That's my child in 10 years ;o)

This weekend Mabel and I decided to go to Dallas since we had an extra day. The trip there was obnoxious because we got stuck in traffic for a long time... but we had fun

My radio was not working and the plan was to fix it while we were in Dallas... so, we wouldn't have music on the way there. So, we rigged up a ghetto system so we could have some tunes... though it wasn't even close to being as loud as we like it. We had some great conversation, though... so I think God had a plan in blowing the radio, eh? Oh, and yes, I did fix the radio while we were there... very proud :o)

Yah, now that's more like what I look like every day... hahahahahaha... hair pulled up somewhat, sweatshirt, eating chocolate, and driving... oh yes ;o)

Mabel painted her nails on the way there... she didn't quite finish her toes... hehehe

Friday night we babysat Camron so Kris and Christina could go out. He loves Mabel of course and so was dragging both of us around and having a blast. He calls her Be-bel... it's so cute. I'm so blessed to have been able to spend time with my precious nephew since I've been in Texas. My passion for children continues to grow and being a part of his life in a more significant way has encouraged me to continue seeking to love kids with Christ's unconditional love and show them that He created them for an amazing purpose. It's amazing what God can use to teach you things.
Saturday we went to an Indian basketball tournament that Mabel knew a bunch of people at... we went and hung out at their hotel in between their games and showed off our Catch Phrase skills and other stuff... we learned a new game called Watermelon... fun times.

Dane doesn't want to be left out...

We went to dinner with Mabel's good friend Justin, talked forever, went to a movie, and then went back to catch some shut eye before getting up for church on Sunday... church was good. The pastor talked about God's will. I really liked what he had to say. He talked about a general will and specific will and how when we are focused on being in God's general will God reveals to us more about what His specific will for our individual lives is... I can definitely see that to be true in my life. I don't know if I'm accurately describing the essence of the message, but ask me questions if you want to know more.
Alright, now I know this post has been long, and I'm impressed if you made it all the way through. God continues to teach me so much with me being here so far away from home. I miss all of you in Tally-town and have you in my prayers. Please keep me in your prayers that I will grow more and more in love with my Savior every day and that He will be glorified in every aspect of my life. I hope you all had an amazing weekend! I know I still haven't posted pics from being home... I posted them on Facebook for all of you college peeps who are interested... there are so many, so I will try and pick some and post them before too long. Love ya :o)
