Balloons!

Where to begin?? Um, well this past weekend was Kayla's second birthday party and it was a blast. Funny story about it... Liz and I bought a helium tank and blew up balloons after she went to bed friday night. Saturday morning I woke up to Kayla screaming, "balloons?! Yay! Balloons!!" It was the cutest thing ever. But anyways it went really well and there were a ton of people there. Even my mom's brother came... which was totally shocking. (He's a jerk. I've seen him twice in the past 3 years and that's only been at funerals.) I got to spend time with my cousins which I always love! I came back here pretty early on sunday because I had to get up real early for work on monday.
This week I'm subbing all week, so it's good. This weekend Trent is coming and then I'm leaving for Phoenix on Sunday. When I get back from AZ I'm taking Trent to a Bill Gaither concert for his birthday. Why Bill Gaither? I couldn't tell you, but he loves it so why not? It'll be fun for sure! Meghan has asked me to put some song lyrics she wrote to music, so I'm working on that when I have time.
What else has happened. Uh, oh yes. I recorded my song for my dad and am really excited about the way it turned out. I think I may go back and add some more harmony, but other than that, its done. It was so much fun. Ben is awesome and was very patient with my lack of experience. He was able to add a really beautiful second guitar part and I love it. Now I'm really looking forward to just giving it to my dad. I don't wanna wait til Christmas, but I will I suppose.
Other then that I don't think anything big has been going on. God is doing some cool things and is really working, no surprise there. I don't have a verse right now, but I hope that something encouraging come your way today. Cool story... before I recorded I wasn't feeling very well. Like, I could feel that I was about to get a cold. So I prayed that I would be able to record and do this without any problems. I prayed that my health would hold out just long enough to get it done. It did and I kid you not, literally 5-10 minutes after I got in my car leaving Ben's house I started sneezing. And I mean like really sneezing. I definitly got sick right after I was done recording. I thought it was cool. I was actually kinda glad to be sick because it was a reminder of God's faithfulness and blessings on my life. Sounds a little hoakie (sp?) but it's true.

Well here is a picture of Kayla from her party. I hope you're having a great week!
