RAWR means I love you in Dino, and other things you never knew

Hey everyone!

I'm home (big suprise!) and am chilling today (probably) (and SLEEPING. MUCHOS SLEEPOS).

why?

Because yesterday I got to spend muchos time on a bus coming up from Northern Cali.

How much time? Well, do the math:

Departure time = 9:00 a.m.

Arrival time = 3:00 a.m. (THE NEXT DAY).

long bus ride? Oh yeah :) Something like 18 hours? Um, yeah. It was actually pretty impressive. I loved getting to talk with friends (so many crazy and random noises and songs... Jonathan and Michelle just kept on shaking their heads at me and Tessa).

Wait, wait, wait. Stop the train for a second. Did I tell y'alls I was going down to Cali this week?

Oh, hehe, nope. I didn't. (I wanted to keep it a huge secret to surprise everyone... and trust me, they were surprised).

So I went down with my church to this adventure camp/ranch called JH ranch and had some pretty magical adventures. Lots of growth, both for myself and for my friends happened there. I got to know so many new people and build relationships with those I already know and God really spoke to me and pointed out some huge areas that need growth.

And the twenty hour bus ride? I don't wanna lie, that was probably my favorite part.

We did tons of ropes courses and played out on the man made lake and in the pool. I got blobbed majorly (so much fun! the blob is like a giant pillow in the middle of the lake that you sit on and then have people jump on from really high up to make you go flying) and I TOTALLY sent Colby flying (that was sarcastic, btw. He's like uber buff and probly weighs like 100 pounds more than I do.)

Anyways, just to sum it up, the week was bombtastic. I will try and spend more time describing it at a later date, but I have to go pack now to return to Bighorn either today or tomorrow.

Love you all!
