4th of July...in Peru

Its interesting spending American holidays in another country. When I was 18, I got to spend 4th of July in Africa, actually we were on a safari so that ruled. I'm not going to lie to you bloggers out there, today has not been the best day. I woke up at 6:15 a:m and lets just say I spent a lot of time in the bathroom, it happens to everyone. I couldn't go back to sleep so I thought that a shower sounded like a great idea. Oh, it gets worse. So I go to step in the shower to get my clean on BUT my foot slipped out from under me and I hit my side on the little step you have to step over to get in the shower and I went to catch myself and landed on my hand. So my left hand is really bruised and hurting but on a brighter note...I haven't made many trips to the bathroom lately. I know you all wanted to get really close and personal with me.
We are at the Grady's in Huancane, we spent the night last night. Today we are having an American style cook out and apparently Jeremy Lou created six different events for us to compete in against the Georgia team, I'm doing the apple bob. I'm gonna get those apples!!!! I'm off to go practice my apple bobbing skills...I can't let the team down!!!!

Spring cleaning!

Like the new look? My blog is ready for a night out on the town.

Is that you God?

Oh hello world. Today we went to the market in Juliaca, that was fun! We bought a ton of food, I mean a TON. We pretty much stocked up on oreos for life. I brought some sweet headphones at the radio shack here for like ten bucks. Yippeeeeskipppeeee!
So I'm trying to discern if God is speaking to me or if its just my silly ambitions so please pray. I was wondering today how silly I must look to these people here. I am always doing hand motions and speaking english, its a littler embarassing. Its also embarassing that I always mix up my spanish words. I'm kind of a mess here, actually I am.
But seriously, how do you know who God is really speaking to you? I've been praying and reading in scripture so now I'm just waiting for a response. Sometimes I wish that God would just come down from heaven and smack me in the face and tell me what's up.
I wonder if people ask for silly signs like I do. Sometimes I'll be looking out the window at night and I will ask God to send a shooting star to tell me yes. I bet God is up in heaven laughing at me. That's probably what thunder is, God laughing at the silly things we do or just the silly things that I do. Oh God!
I'm ready to hear his voice.
-Love in Christ!

MOOOO

The Mo team left this morning, I really enjoyed getting to hang out with them! Today´s been pretty uneventful...we played with some kids and Jeremy S. and I made lunch. The most eventful thing that happened today is the toilet getting clogged. Yep. John (the missionary) will be arriving in a few hours and we are eating at a local restuarant and John is going to tell them a bible story. We have actually building a lot of relationships and we are going to be telling a bunch of people bible stories next week! I´m getting really excited!! And our team has been thinking of ideas for the church team when they come. It finally feels like we are really starting to spread the Gospel here! Goodness, I just feel like dancing!! I´m off to do some reading.
-Love in Christ!

Welcome!

A little peek into my life, and what my God's doing along the way!

This is me...
