so tha’s all for now. ‘ll have tons of pictures to post once i get my pictures back! 🙂

fall retreat was stupendous. God was present, working and speaking all weekend. i had such a blast hanging out with friends from uwm, and meeting new friends from other schools. i took plenty of notes from the speaker and workshops, so when i am feeling a little less overwhelmed with homework, ‘ll have to post some of those lessons.

but for now, i spent yesterday getting these 200+ pictures from retreat uploaded… here are some of my favs… (sorry modem users… this may take a while to load…. )

(katie, darcy and me)

(cari hiding in the shrubbery… wearing li’s glasses… *shrugs* i do’t know why my friends are so strange. :-P)

(annette took this picture of herself. i find this too easy…. now my friends are taking weird pictures of themselves so they can go on my webpage. *waves* hi annette *grin* ‘m sure everyone at the fish will like this picture of you. :-))

(me and kyle [and glynn, wh’s not in the picture] playing random songs during the talent show/open mic night.)

(kyl’s tallent…)

(me with my hair braided. there were five people braiding my hair… ther’s pictures of the process within the 212 pictures from this weekend. :-))

(another picture from the bonfire, yay us!)

(the group shot. [even though some people left early… ])

ok. tha’s enough for now. go here for all the pictures from fall retreat 🙂

*waves* ‘m off to lake geneva this weekend, for our fall retreat for campus crusade for Christ. i had such a blast last year at fall retreat, and that was when i did’t know anyone there. ‘m sure fall retreat is gonna be so much more cool now that i have made so many close friends through crusade. and an added bonus, now that i am on the worship team, i get to take a drum set with me this year. i always look forward to worship, (and especially leading worship) Go’s presence is so powerful, so peaceful, so moving, so awesome!

speaking of Go’s awesomeness, last night at our crusade meeting, i had the opportunity to share my testimony. let me tell you, it is awesome how God answers prayers, and then goes above and beyond what we ask. last night was just one example of that. God seems to like doing that actually, yet it always floors me when it happens. God just rocks. end of story! *grin*

so now, i must go do laundry so i have some clothes to pack for our retreat *grin* (‘m sure my friends would appreciate that) *waves* God bless your weekend!
