Casting Crowns concert

On Thursday (Valentine's Day) I went to a Casting Crowns concert with Mike. The concert was amazing and we had a great time!!


Getting ready for the concert to start

Since it was Valentine's Day, the band talked a little bit about being with the people you love and what not, and at one point he said to put your hand on the shoulder of the person you love or were with, etc...so yeah...we made it fun!

CASTING CROWNS!!!!

During 1 of the songs, a painter came out and painted this picture...it was soooo cool!!! On the right hand side is a pic of part of it. It is Jesus in the middle with 2 people with their arms up in the air next to Him....

...and here is a pic of the Bible that Jesus was holding in the painting
This is one of the best pictures that I got of the band
At the end of the concert, each person in the band prayed for something specific like torn marriages, addictions, etc. It was really cool. The concert was GREAT and the band is INCREDIBLE!!! If you have never heard their music, I suggest you listen...the songs are so true to life!

SNOW!!!!!

Whew!! It has been blizzarding ALL day today! Tonight we decided to measure how much snow we got throughout the day. In some places it was over 1 foot deep!!! We are hoping for a snow day tomorrow... :)


It's pretty deep!!


Uh oh, we lost the ruler...there's too much snow!


I had to clean off my car 6 different times today because the snow just kept on falling and I had to keep getting in and out of my car...it was crazy

Game Night

On Thursday night, Sean came up for a weekend visit. After His House, Stina, Sean, and I decided to have a game night and we played Scrabble and the entire game of Scattergories. We were up till 2 AM. Sean won Scrabble (cause stina and i helped him getting the winning word..."qi" with the q on a triple letter score! and yes, qi is apparently a word). And then I won Scattergories. It was a fun night


Oh yeah...we were munching on 3 cans of Pringles also...


Stina showing the game board with the pringles


Teaching Sean how to play


Our 3 different flavors of pringles


I didn't think about taking pictures until after we had already played Scrabble, so here is a little something that Stina and I made with the Scrabble board :)

Leader Retreat

Ok...so, the leader retreat actually happened LAST weekend, but I forgot to take my camera so I had to wait for people to post pictures onto facebook so I could get some :) It went from Sunday night to Monday afternoon (MLK day so no classes). We stayed at a church that was about 20 minutes from school and basically had good fellowship together and had a chance to learn more about leadership stuff and what not. Here are a few pics that I snatched off of facebook:


We started off playing a game called "evolution". This game is like rock paper scissors, but each time you play you evolve either up into something if you won or down back into something if you lose. The stages go from egg, to chicken, to monster, to superhero, to champion. If you win 5 times in a row you make it to champion and then you are out of the game and watch other people try to finish. Its actually pretty fun...I never made it to champion though. I got close, but always managed to evolve back down to an egg!


Doing some Bible readin...


Worship!!!

Long time no post

Hey everyone!!

So...I realize that I haven't put up any pictures of the cruise or anything, but I figured that anyone who actually looks at my blog has already seen them via Aunt Karen's blog. If you haven't, go to this link and you can take a look at all the collage's she made of the cruise. (you may have to scroll down a little bit)

Nothing picture worthy has really happened to me over the past few weeks since the cruise and the proposal, so sorry, but this blog is gonna be boring with just writing. I am back at school now and am about to head into the second week of the spring semester. During the first week we had a huge power outage over the whole campus Monday night and school was cancelled that following day. That was pretty cool! Classes seem like they aren't going to be too bad this semester. I guess we'll have to see as we get further along. Other than that, I'm just doing the same old....classes, work at Bob Evans, His House, etc.

Just thought I would let everyone know what's going on, and as soon as I take pictures of something, I will get them up here. :)

Have a GREAT day!!!!!
