pretty awesome day....

Today I went to the church with my dad and brother, Tom, to clean out the back "yard" and to put a wall up in the TYN room. There was A LOT of sand in the back and we piled it all up with the tractor and loaded it up in Johnny's trailer and he took it to his place. There are still at least 2 more loads of sand to be taken away, and the whole back needs to be swept and maybe hosed down.
As for the TYN room, the wall is all up, and all the ugly green tape is off the walls/ceiling/baseboards from painting. That was a lot of work to take that all off. It was so stuck on there because it's been on there for so long. The wall still needs to be taped and puttied, but if we just left it like it is now, it looks 100 times better than it did. We also got rid of a really ugly cabinet that the doors were falling off of. We got about 3 full garbage bags full of crap out of it. Pretty soon, it's going to be the nicest room in the church and the back "yard" behind the church will become a basketball court! :) Paul and Tim, youth leaders, are pretty excited about this whole thing. It's going to be wicked awesome.
Anyways, enough about my awesome fun day. On Thursday night I went to the John Mayer concert. IT WAS SOOO GOOD!!! He's amazing. He was soo good. On the way home Tom and I heard two of his songs on the radio and there is no comparison to his awesome concert!
Other than that, I have no news. That's everything exiting that has happened in my life for the last 3 days.

The Poem about Rain



I found this poem a few days ago when it was raining and I liked it. I don't know who it's by, but I still like it.

Random Stuff...mostly concerts/music events

Wow, it's been a long time since I posted. I think I say that almost every time I post something new. hehe. Anyways, I don't have much to blog about, but I thought I should update. Right now I'm sick. I stayed home on Wednesday and Thursday because I felt really crappy. I'm getting better now though. An aquaintance(don't know if that's spelled right) of mine that I go to school with has 2 or 4 Justin Timberlake concert tickets and my friend and I were thinking of buying them. I think we're going to! I'm pretty excited. I have John Mayer tickets which is this Thursday and I am most likely going to Folk Festival this summer too! And then JT is on the 25 or 26 of August! :)
It's been beautiful outside this week! On Wednesday I layed(<--is that right?? or is it laid?) outside in the sun and suntanned for about 2 hours because I was sick. It was very nice and relaxing. It's so nice outside today to! Even though it's a little overcast, it's still really warm and the sun peaks through the clouds every once in a while.

Countdown/stuff that's coming up:
  • John Mayer on Thursday!!
  • Folk Festival - 75 days!
  • Possibly being a CIT at BRBC (Bird River Bible Camp)
  • Athletes in Action Volleyball camp the first week of August
  • Possibly the Justin TImberlake concert

That's it!! I'm done...

Excited!!

Right now I feel like I have to blog. Today everyone was over for Easter dinner. It was really fun. We had a good time. Besides that...

IM SOO EXCITED RIGHT NOW BECAUSE SOMEONE FROM CHURCH ASKED ME IF I WANTED TO HELP AT A CAMP THIS SUMMER!!!

I think I'm going to do it. I'm already excited. I can't wait for the summer. Folk Fest, swimming, tank tops and shorts, the sun - suntanning, the beach, a new bathing suit...hopefully. Ahh, just thinking about it!

But I'm really tired right now and I should go to bed.

I haven't blogged in a really long time! Sorry it wasn't sooner. I turned 15 on the 26th of March. It was a good birthday. I had a 16 part harmony "Happy Birthday" song, and a delicious blizzard ice cream cake from Dairy Queen.
I also just got back from my cousins wedding in Ontario on Monday. That was a blast. I had such a great time. We shut the place down on the night of the wedding. We partied till everyone else left. It was great. I went shopping with my cousin and my brother's girlfriend. That was fun. I got a few pairs of flip flops and a cute dress from American Eagle. I can't wait for summer to come so I can wear it.
I'm back at school now. It's okay. The frist day back after Ontario was really hard though. Today was surprisingly better than expected. I had badminton practice this afternoon that I didn't know about until this morning and I was really dreading it. But it turned out to be fine. It was quite fun. Tomorrow is a really slack day. I have shops in the morning and then I have a 2.5 hour spare and then Bible class, which is fun most of the time because it's Harris.
That's all my news though.

The countdown!!
  • 22 days until the John Mayer concert
  • 92!! days until Winnipeg Folk Festival 2007! woo hoo!
