The adventure I call my life continues...


Anner and I at her hole
Emily and I waiting out the rain
The lovely Florida
What a few days it has been.  I guess we'll go through starting on Wednesday, since that was my birthday!  

After staying up to midnight to receive birthday wishes and 'special gifts...', I went to bed and slept in.  Emily, Anna, Mom and I went to eat at Forrey's Grill, and then I went to work for a bit.  We had already had praise band, so I just went to dinner at Promises.  After that, we had to stop by my grandparents for a 'card' and there was a surprise party waiting for me!  I have great friends, and I had a wonderful time.  Thanks, guys!

Thursday was the beach day!  We went to Olive Garden to eat lunch (Cathy, Giggles, Chuckles, Anna, Emily, and I), and then headed off towards Wiggins Pass.  We had a fun day of rain, frisbee, water, and relaxation.  Anna, Emily, and I went to Publix and got subs to eat while watching the sunset.  Gorgeous!  My car left Wiggins after that and went on the wrong road...but ended up finding a shorter route home!  Now it's all the more convenient to go to our beach.  Yes, we own it...

Yesterday was fun, but crazy.  I woke up and went with Matt to town to do things for the Cooper campaign.  I really ended up being a runner for lunch and to get Matt's oil changed.  Fun.  We went to Chel's Sweet Sixteen for about an hour later that night, and then went in the jeep to Longhorn's for my family birthday dinner.  Of course, we had to stop by Dairy Queen on the way home to try the new Thin Mint Blizzard, and I thought I might burst yet again.  Dairy Queen is the devil's lair.  I stayed up really late last night to do laundry.  Not fun at all, especially with the early morning today.  

So after a late night of laundry, I woke up at 6:40 AM (yes, in the morning) to prepare for "1000 Homes for Education".  Basically it was a bunch of people gathered together to walk around Clewiston and tell people about Cooper for Super!  Though it was early, we had a great time.  I was paired with Grandpa, and we had a blast walking around right outside of Harlem telling people about Mr. Cooper.  It was ridiculously hot, and although it was fun, I'm glad to be done with it.  After that, we came home and just kind of rested until getting ready to go to Mr. Proverb's 50th b-day bash.  This afternoon was nice, though there was much housing drama.  I made the decision to stay in Libra, so please pray that my family would accept that decision and respect where I'd like to live.  We had delicious food at the party, and now I'm just here writing about my life for the past week before going to bed.  I'm so tired!

Tomorrow should be fun, as our band is totally and utterly mixed up.  I'm looking forward to it.  :)  
Hope everyone has a fantastic night!

Oh, and isn't it weird that Anna is currently on a plane to Paris?  Hope all goes well, Anner! You're in my prayers.

Love you guys!
Brit
