{Three Things: Sunday, July 31}

Wow! I can't believe tomorrow is the first day of August! I don't know about you guys, but this summer has gone by so fast.

I had a really fun day today! Lots of good things to choose from. My three are:

1. I was on worship team this church with some of the best people ever! Seriously, I just really enjoy my community at church. Some of those dudes just crack me up!!

2. I got to hang out at the Watt's house with Pierre and his family! Those kids are a blast and are so sweet. And there's really nothing much cuter than young kids speaking French.

3. My mom made guacamole tonight for dinner. I love guacamole....

I hope you are enjoying your summer friends!

Catching Up

Hey friends! It's been WAY too long since I've posted. So much has happened! Here's my update...

July 17th I left for Xtreme Camp to be a counselor for my third year! Camp is my absolute favorite week of the year. I had such a great group of campers this year and made so many friendships and memories! The stinky thing was, on Wednesday afternoon I got the news that my Poppy had died. That meant that I had to leave camp early to go to Salt Lake City. I was so thankful to be there when I got the news. Everyone was so considerate and it was nice to be in such a relaxing and beautiful place.

Friday morning we got to Salt Lake. My family from all over the country came in to support my Nana and celebrate my Poppy's life. It was so fun for me to see my family!! I wish we would all get together more often.

It was a really hard week. Seeing my Nana in grief was so heart wrenching. One of the hardest parts was seeing my grandpa's shirts hanging in the laundry room.

I'm going to write more about my Poppy soon. Right now I just want to say thank you to all my friends and family who have been so kind and understanding to my family and I. We appreciate it so so much. I am so blessed with all the people God has put in my life!

Love you all,

Kylie

Hi friends! I hope you've all had a great day. Three blessings in my day....

1. After church I went shopping with my sweet friend Rachel Beise for Xtreme Camp stuff! I can't wait for camp! It's my favorite time of the year by far.

2. I'm about to go run 2 miles for my half marathon training! I'm kind of nervous about running 13 miles eventually, but I'm excited to see what I can do when I set my mind on something. I think it's going to be a blast!

3. I transposed songs today! haha that sounds lame I know, but I needed to put a lot of songs for Ignite band next year in girl keys, and it was nice to get that done. I love getting things done early!

Love you all!

Kylie's Top 3: Post-Op

Yesterday I got my wisdom teeth out! I was pretty nervous, but it ended up not being too bad. Lesson learned, however: don't take pain pills on an empty stomach! The best/weirdest part was experiencing anesthesia for the first time. My 3 things today are going to be my favorite things I apparently did while drugged.

1. When I was walking out of the office and in the car my mom said I just giggled. A lot. I told my mom, "When Dr. Begley put me out, he didn't say goodnight or bye or anything... I can't believe he didn't say goodnight..."

2. When I got in the car I asked mom for my chapstick (which I knew would happen beforehand, so I gave it to my mom haha. I sure love my chapstick!). Apparently I kept rubbing it all over my face and saying, "Where are my lips?!?"

3. When we were driving home, I kept telling Kara, "Later, if I don't remember anything, tell me that I'm remembering. I'm remembering right now. I remember Pennie... and Dr. Begley... and that nurse that walked me to the car... I'm remembering right now..."

Hahaha all in all, pretty funny experience. Shout out to Dr. Begley for doing a good job! Have a great night friends!

Who gets sick in the summer?!?

Well friends, apparently I do. So to sum up the past couple days:

1. I got the new Hillsong United CD, Aftermath! I love getting new music, especially new music that rocks my socks off.

2. Yesterday I went to see Pirates of the Caribbean 4 with Kara and my mom. It was a pretty good movie, but I just really loved the fact that a bunch of girls went out to see a pirate movie. Nothin like a swash-bucklin good time! (Or something like that.)

3. I got to play keys at church again this weekend! I'm not the best at it, but I know the more I put myself out there and play, the more I will grow as a musician! I like learning new things. :)

Have you guys seen any good movies this summer??

Happy Monday!

I have TWO Dads!

This morning at church, Pastor Ron talked about the book of Ephesians. He said to REMEMBER WHO YOU ARE. My three good things about today are that:

1. I am ADOPTED by God.

2. I am BOUGHT by Jesus.

3. And I am SEALED by the Holy Spirit.

Actually, those three things are so good that they get 3 leg kicks, 2 fist pounds, and 1 big happy dance of joy!! May I live everyday with this identity sealed on my heart.

Along with my Abba, I have the other best dad in the whole world! I love him so much. So here's three things I love about my daddy.

1. His sense of humor! My dad cracks me up all the time!

2. His heart. My dad is so compassionate and genuinely cares for people. I've been blessed to get to see him bless others with his gifts and services.

3. His hugs. My dad gives the best hugs in the whole world. I always feel safe with him, no matter what.

I love you dad!

Today I had a really great day with my SISTA! I love spending time with my womb-mate!

1. Kara and I went to see Bridesmaids at 1 pm! I've been wanting to see it, and it was really fun bonding while trying to sneak enormous amounts of food into the theater. Our stash included 2 Qdoba burritos, gummy life savers, snickers, pink lemonade, and mr. pibb! hahaha

2. After the movie, Kara and I went to the pool. Swimming is definitely one of my top 3 favorite things about summer.

3. Tonight, Anthony and I broke out my old scooters!! I rode my green one, and Anthony rode Kara's red one. It brought back SO many memories! I'm not as good as I used to be though... haha

Did you guys ever ride scooters growing up??
