Oh! I have a blog! :)

Short answer? Facebook.

Yes, now that I look at my last post, I realize it has been quite a while since I have written. A friend reminded me of this tragic oversight, and so I have decided to once again write to you all! :)

Quite a bit has happened since my last post, and I will try my best to convey them to you!
Jerusha and I were in our church's Easter drama in April. We both had speaking parts (if two words count...), but we were mainly just part of the "crowd".

Jerusha played a blind person in the play; she did really well!!

Of course, being a blind person means you have to have a blindfold over your eyes to show the audience that you are, in fact, blind. :) They put a blindfold over her and them applied tons of make-up to make her look like the above pic!

The weekend after the drama my aunt and uncle from New York came to visit us! They were able to hear Jerusha and I in our Spring Piano Recital, and we all went to Eureka Springs together the next day! :)

Jerusha played "Jazz Suite No. 2".



I played "Prelude II" by George Gershwin.

Daddy with his girls!! :)

For lunch in Eureka Springs, we asked a local where he suggested. He mentioned "Local Flavor"...great recommendation!!

My mom and her sister! It was so great to have her and my uncle come to Missouri!!

After the recital, Jerusha, my mom, and I were involved in a Homeschooling convention here in town. SHEM (Southwest Homeschool Education Ministries) was held in the first week of May.

Jerusha and I worked the convention as Pages. A Page is basically a volunteer at the convention to help the exhibitors, speakers, and attendees. Usually the volunteers are from 13-18 years old. We worked with about twenty-two other Pages.

This year the Pages were organized by a young man who has been a Page for three years. He did exceptionally well in planning and getting all the Pages together before and during the convention! (I heard his sister helped him quite a bit, though. :))

We had a great group this year! :)

We've had many more things since April (including a birthday, garage sale, graduations, orchestra performances, etc...), but I don't want to bore you with all the details. :)  I will tell you that recently I have been studying for the ACT which I am taking in a week and a half. Coincidentally, I'm taking it the day after I return from a Worldview Leadership camp . . . should be interesting. :) I would really appreciate it if you would pray for me if you happen to remember. Please pray that God would give me strength to be able to keep going after camp so that I can take this test with a clear mind! Thank you! :) 

Anyway, thanks for reading this unique post! ;)

I know there are a lot of pictures on here, but there are many more on facebook! :p
