Miss busy body

So it has been way to long since I last blogged and there has been a lot going on! Fall break ended and shool started back with a vengeance! Papers, projecs, lesson plans, and tests abound. That is the main reason I haven't taken the time to write. I just don't have it in me after typing papers for hours at a time! You all understand I am sure!
Last Thursday we went to Lake Charles, LA because Cliff preached the youh service at Livingway Pentecostal Chuch. It was a great service and 3 people received the Holy Ghost so that was awesome! It was a good time all around.
 We were only gone Thursdy night and while we were gone Elvis got shaved and that always makes me happy. He is seriously the cutest dog ever when he gets his hair cut! In other Elvis Presley Pg news we switched his food in another attempt to stop his itchy skin probem. Poor poopsey!  He is so itchy and his skin is so irritated. We think it is the corn in his food. Tonight we got him a rice and lamb formula that is corn and perservative free so I hope it helps! He was so picky about it which was annoying because we are talking about a dog who literally eats anything on the floor, including the hair I shed. He eventually ate it though so we have hope!
The past few weeks we have been doing a series in our Wednesday youth service called Twilight...I think I mentioned it in an earlier blog...but it is going really well! There has been a pretty big crowd every week so that is good! That is all for now! Peace Homies!

Your God

I heard this quote last night while Cliff and I were listening to an Anthony Mangun sermon and it really just kind of hit me...
"Be careful what you chase, be sure it's good enough to be your God. Be sure it can heal you when your sick, and the doctor says there's no hope. When you're dying make sure it can raise you up. Make sure when your children are in trouble, whatever you've been chasing, or have made your God can deliver your children. Remember whatever God you're chasing is the God that's coming back to get you"-G A Mangun
I know there are some people who don't believe in the Lord, but even those of us who do can so easily put other things before Him. Anything put ahead of him is our God. This quote was a great reminder of who the one, true God is! I always want to be chasing after him.
"But if from thence thou shalt seek the LORD thy God, thou shalt find him, if thou seek him with all thy heart and with all thy soul." Deuteronomy 4:29

Time Flies...

It's been about 2 weeks since my last blog and a lot has gone on! On September 26th Lindsey went back home to Indiana and that was so sad! I miss her a lot, but I know she is so happy to be home. For her last Sunday we went out to eat at Logan's with the Mansfield's and that was yummy.

Me and Lindsey at the last supper
As far as school goes I have been unbelievably busy! This last week we had midterms, projects, and lesson plans due! It's all really started running together! I know the Educations majors have a ton of work because we were sitting at a table with some senior year business majors and they could not believe all the work we are doing! They were saying they haven't ever had that much going on at one time! I don't know if it made me feel better that we were working so much harder or if I was sad about it lol I had my last midterm today and I am not sure what I got on it yet, but on my other 4 midterms I got all A's so that is great! This semester it is impossible to slack at all so I think I am going to get straight A's...at least I am hoping!

This past weekend my In-laws came into town! We had a great time with them...We went to Jackson on Friday and went to Maskelley's Furniture to look around then we went to the mall and I went Anthropologie and wanted literally 90% of everything in the whole store...that place is unreal and I love it so! I did get the best candle ever from there and I have burned it every single day since I got it! We also went to Maggie Moos and I had a large cup of chocolate better batter and ate the whole thing! Fat, I know but I'm not worrying about it haha!

We are starting a series in Destined tomorrow night called "Twilight" it's not really about the movie it's about light vs. darkness. I am really excited about it and I hope a lot of visitors come! We have an all new stage set up and their will be lots of cool things going on every week! I'll post some pics once we get it going!
