nickel creek!

so... a couple nights ago i went to see nickel creek. WOW!!! it surely was amazing! i dont really know how to explain it... i have never seen anybody play a mandolin like chris thile does... honestly, i don't think i've really seen anybody play the mandolin at all... but im pretty sure he can play that thing many times better than anybody i have seen plays the guitar (if that makes since). again a say, WOW!!! im pretty sure that is all i can say so that's all i'm gonna say. bye bye for now.

Paul is a true angel!!!

ok.. so check this out... i was taking pictures a couple months ago when the youth group went putt-putting, and i never really looked at the pictures. well i was lookin through all my pictures today, and i found this... hope you enjoy :)

its been a while...

ok... so i told you i would get back to you guys ASAP... well its not quite ASAP, but im here. sorry you had to wait so long for me to post, but, well, i dont really have any excuses

so last post i told you i would update you on what happened the weekend before. so i will update you:

Date:2/10-11/06- so on these 2 days i went with the first general babtist church to st. louis on a 'retreat' type thing, i guess, called dare 2 share i left on the bus and noon on the tenth from school... i got to get out early. yay! the ride up there, and everywhere we went on the bus for that matter, was deffinately interesting... just imagine every single camp song ever thought of being sung at the top of about 35 or so kids' lungs, (note that there were about 40-50 kids that went), and every now and then, in between each song hearing "we are going to pump *clap* you up!" it was deffinately nothing i was ever used to... but it was fun. honestly it was a lot of fun, and i would probably do it again if i was invited again.

so, when we got to where we were goin, and got everything unpacked at the church we were staying at, we played some very small version of arena football in the gym... the gym was the size of a basketball court, so it only took like 2 passes to get a touchdown. it was pretty easy to score... but it was enjoyable... i just stood in the corner and they threw it to me almost every time... i also caught it... almost every time... i guess thats all that counts. eventually we had to go to the service, which was held in the (insert name here) hockey dome: home of the blues. it took forever to get inside because there were people everywhere... im pretty sure they said there was like 9,000 people there, and we were never the first ones there. when we got inside they were selling concessions. they all looked good (they we even selling steak) but it was a huge amount of money that i didnt have for any of it. a bottled water costs $4.... yea right!

so... the speaker was good, the music was good, the food was expensive as crap, so for the most part the whole trip was good... it was fun... it really was. i really enjoyed it.

so now i think my post is over. sorry it took so long to get back to you... i guess im just that lazy. but here it is... i hope you enjoyed it
