Joshua Wilderness

So we had some wonderful friends from our Joshua class come over last night for dinner. It's always good to see people you love and just catch up and be silly. One thing I think we all (in one way or another) realized was that we are harboring some bitterness towards our Joshua class, directors, teachers, and Hume lake. It was a sad moment for me because I didn't know these things about myself, or at least didn't want to know these things. I'm a bit angry and annoyed with somethings that I remember going down. Well I was last night because as I talked them through with my fellow Joshua's I realized how stupid I was for holding on to something so peaty. God changed me for the good in that place and my worldly perspective changed me in the bad. A place is not going to be perfect because it's in this world, this world of sin and sickness. Even if it is Hume Lake one of the most beautiful places I know of. I'm ashamed of my bitterness and I'm sad that I have been carrying it around with me for so long. Thank goodness for Hilary, Jacqui, and Sam because they really know how to knock sense into me. I loved every moment I got to spend with them and I love God for working through people and in my life.

Delta

Our good friends Matt LaMarche, Joe Ruppert, and Ryan Nickel (and probably a few more) have been tell Sam over and over and over that he looks like the lead singer from Delta Spirit. Even friends we haven't talked to for years have sent him links of his picture to show Sam he looks like him. So, it just so happens that they were going to be playing at the Fillmore in San Francisco the beginning of December. Our friend Matt says "I will buy your tickets if you will go and watch them" and we took him up on his offer. We set off to go and see "Sam's twin" with a big crew of people in tow.

Basically they were amazing!

Sam doesn't look like Matt Vasquez and I should know I look at him everyday. He also definitely didn't because he shaved is head the night before!

Honestly I only took one picture and it's not very good. They was a woman dancing in front of me that was AMAZING! There was also a woman that was angry at me for trying to take photos so basically there were just WAY too many distractions.

Heres a video you can judge if Sam looks like him or not : )

Bald Aprons.

Sam has done a lot of things this past week, and being that he likes me to speak for him on "our" blog I am going to tell you about them. They might seem minor but really they are a BIG deal to us.



First; I finally bought Sam his apron. What I had intended to do was get him a really fun one with my face on it so that when he washes the dishes he can be with me at all times. But I always seemed to forget to get him one over and over again. So I just so happened to be at K-Mart ,buying some nail polish, and I saw aprons and they weren't just girly frilly aprons but some that men could wear too. I picked one out for Sam and it was just a plan blue and white stripped but Sam loves anything nautical looking. Basically he loves his apron and had me take photos of him wearing it : )

Second; Sam ,after many days of me begging him not to do it, SHAVED HIS HEAD. Actually I shaved his head because I am a loving wife. I am very sad to see his beautiful locks go but I think I am starting to love his new head. I can actually see the shape of it and feel all the lumps hahaha however weird that sounds. He will always be my sexy even if he doesn't have his Sam hair. He loves his head being shaved because now we don't have to buy combs, pomade, or hair cuts (because we decided I am not allowed to cut his hair anymore) and he isn't hot all the time. He's cute.

He got grumpy cuz I'm slow.



End.

Girls Night/ Guys night

Last night I had a little girls night while Samuel hung out with all the boys...I have no idea what they did nor do I want to hahah. Ok, well moving on....The ladies that I got the pleasure of spending time with were Julie, Katie, Chels, and a new member Jenni (we really missed Mrs. Volk last night but next time she will be there!). We basically just hung out ate pizza, drank (a lot) wine, consumed a ton of Ben and Jerry's, and shared basically anything personal we could share, it was so much fun. I learned a lot about Mrs. Julie Skelton and I love her so much! I am so thankful for these new woman that are being put into my life and just how honest we are with one another. Tonight we have the women's Christmas tea at Twin Lakes church tonight and we will all once again be there together....holler!

I wish I was better at taking pics.

Seriously funny

the best

Well I do not have any pictures of guys night being that it was guys night. The boys made that very clear when I snuck over to give Sam kisses! But how can a resist that man I had to give him as much PDA as possible.

Love.
