I'm sitting here at 2 AM unable to sleep and decide I might as well update our blog. These past few weeks have become pretty slow for me as I had to stop working because of my back pain. Since then, however, my back has felt so much better and Jordan no longer has to carry me to the bathroom in the evenings, definately a good thing! I have kept myself busy, or somewhat busy, by organizing and spring cleaning throughout the house, volunteering at KLUB (haha yes Caleb I know) which is an afterschool Christian club on Wednesdays for K-5th, reading, and of course, doing taxes. Hurray! Unfortunately our taxes cannot be completed until I change my name on my social security card and the nearest office is, oh, 2 1/2 hours away in good weather. Boo.
I've also started going to a women's Bible study on Sunday afternoon's and we're studying the book of Daniel. We only go through about 10 verses a week, but it is SO good and I love it! Jordan's and my evenings are pretty much taken up with youth group stuff and a care group, we always make sure we have one night set aside for our 'date' night. I am definately taking advantage of this first pregnancy without any other children to take care of...(ending sentence with a preposition??). I know this will probably be the only time in my life where I can set aside afternoons to catch up on the sleep that I'm not getting, like at this very moment.
Jordan and I are heading to Snowbound this weekend, which we are very excited for (prep again!). Snowbound is the winter camp for Jr Highers and it is our first year able to go. If you think about it, please pray for openness and a willing heart for the youth. The majority of girls (which are the same girls in my Bible study) are believers, however there may be 2 unbelievers and this is a great opportunity for the others to share Christ with them. Also pray that I can sleep this weekend so I'll have the energy I need to keep up with them :D
Ok, I think I'll go try to sleep again....
ps. if anyone can guess what song the title of this post is taken from, they win!

I have no idea! ??
Good luck at youth camp! I am glad to hear that you are keeping busy! Take advantage of the time to fun read...boy I miss reading for fun. We miss you and Elijah sends his best...at least I think he does...he is not a very clear communicator.
lol. Caleb and I couldn't remember what movie it was that Matt Damon looked like Matt Harpring in. So I texted Cas, and then I remembered right after.
All I could think about was wild world, but I know it's wrong.
what is it?
"C'mon feel the noise. Girls rock your boys. And we'll get wild wild wild." Booya! Quiet Riot. No one wins. Well Charity does.
