Vacation Bible School

I may have some pictures sometime, but not now. Our VBS started Mon., It's always great. I'm in the youth, lastnight there were 20 people in the youth. 124 people total. That's awesome!!!!!!!!!!! Our music leader is a great singer, she sings for the West Virginians, a group thet won a competition, got to go to Italy, & sang in front of the pope!! Yeah, so I feel sorta special, she's also a great director, so she's directing our skit.

Everything

Everything is a skit for teens. The youth in our church are doing it for Vacation Bible School (which started Mon.) We are having some trouble, but it should be great. It is the most moving thing ever. It's not a skit for all ages, but if you're interested you can find it on "youtube" type in,"Everything Lifehouse Skit." It's amazing. I get to be the lead character, the regular human, the story of all of us. It is so awesome to see the old goofy kids you've grown up with doing something like this. Pray for us. I don't know if I can do this or not.

Picking

Picking what? Blueberries, of course!!!!! I picked 4 Buckets today & will pick 5 tomorrow. A friend of mine who I'd never met in person, just through letters, came today to pick.

rain brings peace

Yes! It rained today, so we didn't have many custermers & I couldn't pick many berries(only 2 buckets). I acctually got bored. What a novelty!!!!!! I sat around alot & read comic books. How wonderful! The problem is now I'm bored hopefully I'll get to have a friend over tomorrow, just waiting for her to call back. Waiting......waiting......waiting......so bored.

We've all lost our heads

Right now if you asked me if I was right-side up or up-side-down, I'm not sure I could tell you. We're flying through the annual crazies time of our lives. We've had more people picking berries then there are berries to be picked. We've run out of buckets, parking, & in several cases patience. We've had tons of orders for already picked berries & Hannah & I spend alot of the week preparing for or selling at the farmer's market. We have swarms of people, & lots of them come when we're not open, so then you have explainations, excuses, & predicaments. I was taught the first day of the season how to work the cash-register, which keeps addind to my list of things to do. Don't take me wrong, I love blueberry season, but right now I'm exausted.

Farmer's market

I'm only going to blog real quick, today Hannah & I & our friend LouElla went to the local Farmer's market to sell blueberries. We sold almost 80 pints. It was a big day, The farmer's market starts at 8:oo, so you gotta get up at 6:30, go down there, sit all day, come home & still be open for picking. We almost picked out yesterday, so today was fairly slow. The boy's went swimming. I slept & doodled. Finally, after some caffine, I'm waking up. Pretty soon now I'll have to go to bed. What a day.

Big Day

We had a huge blueberry day, we ran out of parking, buckets, & almost berries. Hannah, our friend LouElla, & I are going to the farmer's market tomorrow. We each picked & sorted over 4 buckets each.

Too Early

We started blueberry season on June the 27, at 7:15 to be precise. We open at 8:00. We had people waiting to pick for 45 min.

Crazy Man

Our cousin, Peter, came down a couple wks. ago for an all out amazing visit. We had a blast. He stayed for 12 days. He is definitely what you call a crazy man, Crazy, but awesome.Our Grandparents came Mon. Grandmother helps cook, clean, ect. while we're so busy with blueberry season.(We started Sat.) We got into water fights, annoyed Hannah, picked blueberries, went swimming, rode bikes, played Cops & Robbers, found bees nests the hard way, & had a blast. At one point Hannah got so tired of us she put salt in our drinks at supper. We explored our neighbors woods & I got sprayed by Peter with the water hose. What fun. Last night Uncle Marshal, his boys Will & Clark, Peter's sister, Anna came down. Uncle Marshal had to leave that night. This morning Grandmother & Grandfather took Peter & Anna home. All the sudden the house seems very quiet, unusual you know.
