dr. appt. (agian)

So, Sunday at church we had a guest family from Kenya! They had a good testimony during Sunday school! It certainly made me think of myself and my role as God's witness. I shall pray and work harder as a witness in our Father's name! During the morning service I was in the nursery with the toddlers they certainly were a handful we (that is Nancy and I) had seven kids!

In the afternoon I headed to my grandparents place back home! I had a doctor's apt. the next day! Its been a while since I have seen my grandparents, I had a good time. It was a colorful experience! My grandpa gave me an old camera along with several other things with it! Its pretty cool! Cant wait to start taking pics with it! Ill probably have to get it cleaned though! After seeing my grandparents I went home and slept!

Next day i slept in and was late for my doctor's apt. Oops! I needed a TB shot! So ten minutes there then off to Rockford. I made a stop at my grandma's new apartment!

Day 2

Well after getting the car keys back in my hands! I went home! 1100ish i called my mom to tell her i got my keys! I could hear some noises in the background that was not noises associated with the usual! I ask her where she was! My family was camping at a campground near my house! So, she tells me to come out there if i wanted! So i agreed to do so! Now keep in mind folks i have not slept since Friday 930pm so i was pretty exhausted! So i got out to the campground and meet my family. My mom's cousin, her boyfriend (cousin's boyfriend), her kids were all there! I was thinking my brother grew bigger since last i seen him! Now I'm ready for bed! Ill probably end up sleeping my car thinking that my family brought their pop-up camper which is not very big! Turns out mom and dad bought a big camper on the land there! It was quite a deal! We got a deck, gazebo, shed, nice fireplace, and flowers around the border all for 700 dollars plus we paid half the rent for the land in campground! Well i slept comfortably in one of the beds in the camper! Got up early and had a nice day with the family! We went to a flea market for a short time, fishing, and played badminton!

So i had a good weekend with my family! On Monday i had a doctor's appt. and headed back to Rockford. I didn't get to see my sister, Erin, the whole weekend! That was a bummer!

Wedding Shower

I went home (family hometown) on Saturday! My cousin, Emily, had her wedding shower that day! There was abundance of food and good cake! My grandma and aunt was there as well as lots of other family and friends on Emily's and Brandon's (fiance) side. I had lots of fun hanging out with my cousins! We played a game called bean bag toss! My partner and I were the champions of the night! The game between my team and Eric's (cousin's husband) team were head-on, it was very close game! Dinner time came around and there was only a few of us left the three sisters (my cousins), a couple (friend's of the sisters), and ofc the host (parents of sisters). Barb (my aunt, girls' mom) made us dinner of sandwiches and chips! Sarah was nice enough to pull out some chicken so i can eat a sandwich myself! Well around 1030ish I said my good-byes (they were all getting ready to go out) and walk out to my car. Guess what happens! I locked my keys in my car! How embarrassed I was! Eric and Brandon tried a hand at opening my doors! So Eric called a locksmith he knew! The locksmith comes out and the guys were there to meet him! Well now i didn't have cash on me! Ugh! So Barb paid for me! I was so thankful that she paid the bill for me!



So, Barb if u happen to read this I'm grateful for your thoughtfulness!
