The Fun of Being Together

Ok you all, I am back again!! I took a look at my blog today and saw how lonely it was becoming, so I thought if I didn't post something soon it might just disappear! Ok, I didn't think it would disappear, but anyways... here is a post! :)

Talking to Brittney and Rachel over skype.
Friday Meda, Lois, Ruthanna and Amanda came and stayed some of a day, a night and the next day with us.

We were trying to find something fun to do, so we went outside and some of the girls played a little bit of ping-pong. After that we all went and jumped on the trampoline in a down pour and got soaked. The idea came up of walking to the train tracks in the rain, but that didn't go very far when we thought about how dark, rainy, and how far it was from our house. It would've of been one wet trek, but it also would've been really fun!!! :)

haha The stare down!!.. I think I won :) lol

Hot chocolate!!

Playing Dutch Blitz! We all didn't get to bed till three in the morning....:/

The next day we all went out to the train tracks and the girls got some pictures.

Had an awesome time on the quad.. only we really needed more then one! It was really funny cause I wanted to take Amanda down to a certain spot in the tracks, but I was running out of gas. Ruthanna and I went back to the house and finding no gas sitting around we decided to siphon some from the van. Well, we couldn't get that to work so we went and tried our car. Well we couldn't get that to work either. :/ Out of options we looked around for what other supply of gas we could find and found Isaac's car. So we tried our hardest to get that to work too, but didn't..... We ended up not going cause we couldn't find any gas. Then on the way back down to Sierra Vista that evening we stopped to fill up the car at a gas station. Amanda goes to the gas pump and Meda says, "No, this car takes diesel!" Ruthanna and I get this real worried look on our face and we both say, "diesel?"... man, if we had got the siphoning to work we would of put it in the quad.. and probably ruined the engine! lol So it was just great that we didn't get it to work!! :) haha

Amanda was crazy... she was like doing these really high jumps!

Go Amanda!!!

Just to let you know Meda, I got my post on before you did!! :) 

All seven of us squished into Isaac's little car and drove back to Sierra Vista. On the way we went through a really bad storm. Hail balls the size of marbles! Anyway after the storm was passed by we all went to McDonalds for an icecream cone. Well, Amanda was still getting used to a stick shift and so she didn't know how to put the car into reverse after parking it. So she had to put the car in neutral and us girls got out and pushed the car out of the parking spot. Was really funny!!

Was a really fun weekend!! 

And I Am Back!

Yup, that's right! Back to the blogging world again. I must admit I did actually miss it, but the break was nice. :) The Lord blessed me and my family with an AmAzing vacation. It was so awesome just to watch and see what He had in store for us around every corner of our journey. Meeting people from everywhere, and getting to witness to them about our Lord Jesus Christ and the Prophet that He sent to us. Once He even had a sheriff stop us to tell us that our trailer cords were hanging too close to the ground and Dad got to witness to Him and he took a whole hand full of message books. I believe the Lord had our entire trip planned for us before we even left home. It was just makes me so excited to know that we have a true living God that already has our life planned out for us and we never have to worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself! I really enjoyed the whole trip, but my favorite part was camp. A place where we got to be away from this world, and just got to spend time with the Lord, alone! He is so good to us and I can't help but be excited about it!! =D  

I really enjoyed taking pictures, and when I got home I loaded them all onto the computer, and I found out that I had 1,948 pictures! I was like, "whoa!!" I knew I was taking a lot of pictures, but not that many! :O lol Any way, I am going to try and get some of them posted on my families blog, so if you want to see pictures go to www.stritefamily.blogspot.com! I will try to post some pics on here a little later. :) 

Have a good weekend everyone!! =D
