Me and Sarah!!!

Tonight i got off from work and headed to the Fortin's house!! Unfortunately they were already finished with dinner, but Cindy had just finished taking some chocolate chip cookies out of the oven!!!! With a glass of milk they were soooo yummy!!! It made for a good dinner! It was great the whole family was together. Mike and sharon and Daniel were over visiting. Unfortunately they were unable to go to the movies with us. Well me and my brothers and our sister Sarah headed out. We saw RATATOUILLE!!!! It was good. I think I laughed more than anyone else though. I'm just a little kid at heart!!! Course, I wouldn't have it any other way!! Then we went shopping at Lowe's. The guys needed some safety glasses!! Sarah is spending the night with me cause i have tomorrow off!! We are watching the Lion King before bed. Tomorrow we'll sleep in but not too late cause i have to have her back by 12:30. She is going out for ice cream with her Sunday School teacher!! Not sure what else we're going to do. Whatever trouble we can find i guess!!!

College Friends!

Well i had a wicked good weekend!!! My friends Kyle and Anton were in Maine and they came over Saturday night. We were going to play disc golf, but of course it rained when they got here so we went bowling instead. My friends John and Jeremy came and even though they are completely different than each other we all had a good time. After bowling we went back to my house and had pizza and watched the Red Sox!! I WAS BORED OUT OF MY MIND!!!! Then i made some wicked good brownies to finish the evening off! Sunday night Anton and Kyle preached in the church they were working in so I went with a couple of my friends to see them. They did a wicked good job!!! Anton spoke on the Joy and Kyle spoke on reaching your family. They were encouraging and convicting and I can't say when the last time that I wanted to go to the altar so bad!!! The Lord really used them. Then afterwards the pastor wanted to take us all out for a bite and when we got there half of the church had showed up!!! It was still fun though. I'm so glad the Lord gave us the opportunity to get together!!

FREEDOM IS NOT FREE!

JOEL HOUSE believed there was a price to pay for freedom. He believed there was a cause worth fighting for. Fighting for America was his passion. On June 23 during his 2nd tour in Iraq Joel was taken home to be with the Lord.

He was from a small home town in Maine and it was a devasting blow to all. My parents grew up with his parents and it has been a serious 4th of July. The people of Lee, Maine have really pulled together. They had the funeral tuesday and my parents have been attending and trying to be an encouragment to the family. Joel was raised in a christian home and loved the Lord till his death!! He was the first of 109 grandchildren and great grandchildren to die. He comes from a very close family. This is the famous painted rock in between Lee and Lincoln. I've helped paint it myself once!! It was painted in loving memory of Joel House. LET FREEDOM RING!!!
