Whats been happening since the beginning of the year??

(Top) Hiking at the Guy's Time (Bottom) Dressed up as a Piratey Person

Lets see...where to begin...life has been good around these here parts. I've been taking a Speech class through a nearby community college, going pretty well. So far I have given a "My Hero" speech on my dad and I had to read (I read "Detention can be fun", by Bill Cosby, a really funny story).

I continue to work with dad...putting up fans, lights, etc...man, its interesting to see the dumb things home-owners or electricians-who-don't-know-what-they-r-doing do, like really mess up 3-Way switches!

I also signed up for an Ambulance Ride-Along program. I want to get a feel for the medical field and find out if I can stand blood and that sort of thing...maybe I'll become an EMT or Paramedic?

Also, on February 23 and 24 I headed up (with the help of dad and Caleb) a guy's time at our house through our church. Had a bon-fire, watched "Saving Private Ryan", went Hiking, talked about things of God...Awesome time!!!

Well, I am really looking forward to the Summer...I leave Virginia on June 8th and head to Texas for a couple of days of Leadership training and then Missionary training, we then head to Peru for about 54 days...afterward we come back to Texas for debriefing, they tell us how to take what we have learned back home with us. Afterward I am going to visit my brother, his wife, and their two sons (the second son is due in May!!!), in Dallas for 2 weeks...I hope I'll be able to do posts when in Peru, so stay posted.

Oh, the other day I dressed up like a Pirate :-)
