Friends...are those who laugh with you, cry with you and dance on the Wii together! :) Oh How I love my friends!

I spent the best 4 days with friends right after camp. I left Sunday to drive down and stay the night in Hot springs with Kayla. She took me out to dinner then we just picked up where we left off and decided to lay in bed to talk and watch a movie. It was so wonderful to have some REAL girl talk, to catch up on each others lives. Man have I missed her.

Monday Kayla and I got up and headed to Glenwood, Arkansas where we would be spending the next 3 days at Kiley's house. Kiley is such a sweet girl. I met her this last year at school b/c I was her R.A. however, she happened to be one of the girls I connected with most. The very first night we all went for a swim in their heated pool...AHHH!!! lol Before this however, Adam came over and we all played the Wii till we laughed so hard we wanted to cry. :) We even had Adam on the dance game...and if you know Adam then you know..."We don't dance, we're baptist!" haha I love my friends.
Tuesday we all got up to waffles and bacon...lovingly provided by Mrs. Kim. Then headed out to the lake. Mr. Casey, Mrs. Kim, Ben, Lindsey and Kiley taught Adam, Kayla and myself how to wake-surf, water ski and wakeboard(only Adam). We even tube for a while! Lets just say wakesurfing is more my thing, Kayla's is the water ski and Adam...pretty much mastered it all. lol
Everyone got some tube action...except Kayla. It was so much fun yet, very painful! lol When we all got back in from the lake and dinner we all crashed. Literally, laid down in the living room and slept. I was BURNT like i've never been before in my entire life. I was FRIED! lol But it was totally worth it!! On Wednesday even though we were all sore Kiley treated Kayla and myself to a special part of her life...her horses. :) I feel so privileged that she shared with me. I had so much fun riding on Sugar, she's a very precious/sweet horse. I am normally very scared to let my horse run or go any faster than a walk yet this particular day I didn't care...I went for it. I loved every minute of being on Sugar and am looking forward to being able to ride again.

This was fun but one of my favorite parts about the whole weekend was being able to share camp stories with Kiley. :)

I have grown so much in my relationship with the Lord over the past year and am enjoying every day that passes that i continue to grow and grasp a better picture of how marvelous God truly is! I am incredibly blessed with an amazingly supportive family and wonderful friends who love God as much as I do!
