Oh the joy of being home!

I got to go home this past weekend for 4th of July and my mom and sister's birthdays. For those that don't know, they happen to be on the same day...weird right? They were both born on July 10th. But they're at camp this week so we celebrated early. haha

It was so nice being home. Words can't really even begin to describe.
Now don't get me wrong...I've really loved living at this huge ranch and getting to spend time with my dad, but I've missed being with my friends so much. It gets really lonely out here sometimes and it's been great to have some time with those that mean a whole lot to me.

So Wednesday when I got home I imediately headed over to Trever's house. He's one of my best friends and we chilled and played some Rock Band. He needs alot of prayer folks. He's been through alot this past year, and I think more than anything he's having a hard time forgiving himself. He feels that he's beyond forgiveness and can't change his ways. I know this isn't true and I pray that God would make that real to him this week at camp. Please be praying for him.

Thursday I went and saw Hancock (don't waste your money). I also got to spend some time with Courtney. I haven't done that in a very long time and I really enjoyed it. We just watch America's Best Dance Crew...which is actually a really good show. It's the only thing I watch on MTV. haha!

Now 4th of July was kinda lame. Since our whole family was getting together on Saturday, we didn't do anything for America Day. But I did get to watch Be Kind Rewind with Courtney and that was awesome! One because I got to hang out with her some more, and two because that movie is just great. I highly recommend this one, guys. Go out and buy it! Oh, but we did throw my sister a surprise party and that was alot of fun. She didn't expect it at all. It was a good chance to hang out with her and her friends...most of whom I don't know very well. Plus Disch was in the States! It was so unexpected, but I was glad we were able to text for a little while. I miss her :(

And Saturday was the big day. WONDERLAND PARK!!! It's the best amusement park ever. And it's been a family tradition to go there for the July birthdays for as long as I can remember. If you're ever in the Amarillo area, you should go. Plus they're almost done building three new rides. They haven't built new rides in years and years. It's so much fun.

So that's the weekend in a nutshell. Sunday, I headed back to isolation. haha
Please be praying for the lonliness. It's getting harder and harder to deal with. I could definitely use it.
