Okay so here's the thing. I volunteered to do a special music at my church on July 5th and I was really looking forward to it. I was gonna have Justin play acoustic and sing with me. I was gonna sing and maybe even recruit Jaymie to sing too. So I asked Justin first because Jaymie would be a tough cookie about it(don't ask about the cookie phrase it just came to me) and he was totally excited. He wanted to play and sing with me. So we spent hours and hours (literally) looking for a song that we really liked and that would be playable. We finally picked Slow Fade and I practiced the harmony over and over for like an hour. No joke. Don't believe me then ask Justin. I was so pumped to do that special! I was actually listening to alot of Christian music. Then the other day I told my grandma about my little plans and she said I should probably ask Steve before I went all out and planned it all out. Too late I thought. But last night I asked him anyways after our worship team practice. I was like could Jaymie or Justin and I do a special? Here's his reply: "Well maybe not Justin but Jaymie is okay. It would be like your grandpa showing up to church for 3 weeks and then ushering". That comment actually kinda hurt me. I mean my grandpa is unchurched wanna rub it in more? It was kinda like a slap in the face. I was about to cry. I was like okay. And I left. But here's what I'm thinking. Justin loves God. He goes to church. He just goes to such a big church he's never been asked to get involved. The thing is I think that if he has an attitude of worship and wants to worship and praise God with his talents then why should we deny him that right? I mean the other day Sue was going to sing with her niece and I haven't seen her once in my church. How is that fair? Why is it adults are allowed priviledges that are perfectly fine for teens to have? I actually went home and cried myself to sleep. I really wanted to sing it with him it was gonna sound soo good. Now I'm stuck without a male voice in a predominately male song. And I'm totally bummed. I don't even want to sing that special anymore...
So what better way to lighten a heavy mood than with a random video!? http://www.comedycentral.com/videos/index.jhtml?videoId=11923 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F3KEfW4wjjo
Enjoy that stuff. It's priceless:) Don't Drop That Sh*t! ;) yeah so. today I asked Jaymie to come over. You gotta book her early these days so I called her @ like 8:00 o'clock in the morning :D ahahaha. Yeah. I miss youth group already. But yesterday I picked up Justin and we played Rock Band. And I played him songs on my piano. We had my new favorite pizza. Roundy's Chicken Fajiita oh my guh. If you want good pizza buy that. Then we went to the park. We were gonna walk but my grandma said we didn't have enough time before my worship team practice. So I took pictures of the trees as she drove through. My grandma and Justin got in a fight and it ended with me in tears. But Justin did that thing with my fingers that makes me crack up. Cover up one and I'd try to wriggle it free and he'd hold it down and then hold down the next one:) He whiped away my tears and told me not to cry so I felt better.
Weekend plans:
- Thursday-hang out with Jaymie sometime
- Friday-Latricia's Birthday my grandma is making me go
- Saturday-Zion Car Show
- Sunday-Church
Well I better go! Jaymie is on her way over here and we wanna play volleyball outside and I'm still in pajamas! :)lyl

Wow, boy I step aside and everything goes to heck in a hand basket! Oh I've always had issues with our worship team, so I won't get started on it. I don't want anyone twisting my words. I will say though, the attitude you were given by Steve is one reason the church will not grow-EVER! Double standards and inconsistancies totally contrary to the Bible, geez we're supposed to follow the Bible as our rule book! I'm sorry that happened to you guys.
Have a good day, stay dry!
lol
i love how y'all are sorry for me. it makes me feel better inside:) yay.
