There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under heaven. -- Ecclesiastes 3:1

I almost went to the NB devo tonight, but then decided I needed to be at SRC.

Worship at SRC was amazing. Then I was invited to the Lintons to hang out with the crew.

So I went.

Afterwards I had to drive someone home, by driving this friend home, I recieved 5 dollars. My gas tank was empty.

As I drove down Almaville Rd. I noticed that the gas station on my left had gas for $2.13/gallon. well I thought the other 2 would too. but it was $2.19 there. I turned around. passed the entrance, turned back around and went to the cheaper place. I pulled in. grabbed the money(all quarters) and went to put $4. 75 worth of gas in my car.

As I was walking towards the stations entrance, I noticed steam coming from the drivers side corner of the front of my car.

This had me concerned.

Megan got out, popped the hood and I started to fill the car with gas.

When I was finished, I started looking under the hood of my car. Clueless as to what I should do, and contemplating what i should do.

A man walked over. He was an older gentleman.

cutting the story short. He at least temporarily fixed my car so that I could make the 5 minute drive home. He owns a car garage. Megan got the name. she's decided that's where she'll get the car fixed from now on.

the moral of the story. Go to SRC. b/c then your car will break down. . ..waiiiiit a minute. I'm just kidding.

It's just interesting to see how God works in the most mysterious of ways at a golden gallon on a late wednesday night.

Oh and the man gave us tracts

and I'm still not packed. . .and i'm going to the Mercy Me concert tomorrow, and a formal on friday

Packing

August 02 2005
I'm getting there. . .I've spent the last hour or so packing clothing I will be taking. It's the hardest thing in the world b/c I hate to leave stuff behind.

Okay, so I definetly have over-packed.

I have packed to much stuff for the winter that won't happen. Tomorrow I will have to pull it all out. That will help my overpacked situation.

also, anything I do need for "winter" my mom can bring me when she visits...or someone can bring when they visit.

So tomorrow will be spent finishing packing and re doing my clothes. . .blah!

not quite there. . .

August 01 2005
okay. . .I'm not even close to being packed. . .but are we surprised.

I chatted with someone tonight.

July 29 2005
and it's been decided that we are well made.

thank you and goodnight ladies and gentlemen

I would also like to say. . .

July 28 2005
okay, the no dating thing. screw it. there it is people, it's out. bah.

I will not just go screw around in florida, but I will also not say I'm not gonna date. I did it as an example after a friend of mine, I no longer can seem to get in touch with her now and she has turned uber condemning and conservative

I always go for guys that are like 23.

I will also never steal a guy from a friend. in any way form or fashion. It's been done to me, and I know how it hurts, therefore. i shall not do it.

I think I might sleep now. . .yea, that's a good plan

and so it begins

July 28 2005
Camp is over. This saddens me greatly.

I've read 23 books this year.

I move to florida in like 10 days.

My sister is dogsitting for a family with a pool. therefore, I shall be using the pool tomorrow(we're close with the family)

In the process of Anna making fun of me, she(w/o realizing) poured fudge into her coke. we laughed for a while. . .everyone stared

then 15 minutes later. Skid was picking something up off the coffee table in the living room. this coffee table was situated right in front of anna and I and he was bent over. . .we laughed harder.

froggy.wirehog.com is where you can view my camp photos. . .i think . . .

A week in the life of Froggy. . .

July 09 2005

starting out we have the lovely Ad-staff. it's the first day of session 4 camp and it's "red, white, and blue" week.

then it's time for the running bear skit. it's cute, but i don't get why we do this week after week


photo from lauraebeth

then, b/c I have nothing better to do while wasting time with my kids, we go out into the yard between Pine Hill 1 and 2 and have a dance party(aka: badge work, keeps the parents happy)


photo from lauraebeth

the next day, I decide that we love badge work so much that we'll complete the dance badge, and so I teach the kids to ballroom dance. . .


photo from lauraebeth

then it storms. and so all the campers are taught the electric slide in an all-camp dance party

Hightower keeps Laine entertained at the dance party

I go on my Time-Off in Jam Hall, and entertainment is provided by Darcy, as she "poll dances" on Lola

TO is over and I head down to the canoe docks. I walked around the creek as the girls were canoing. . .they were having a "tree party" in this picture

Later that afternoon we went "tree climbing"

then off to drama, where they got to dress up

Campfire night is last. . .(I skipped over the wagon ride, teaching the girls to build a fire, and cooking over an open fire with ducky b/c I was kinda busy making sure 18 other people were fed.) Every unit performs a skit. These are PH1 counselors(their kids had already left)
