sucker and dry with a kiss good night...

today was a good day! church went well this morning and this afternnon i made some cookies for our kickoff of youth group for sunday nights. we had about 20 kids which was a great turnout since i wasnt sure if anyone would show up. we started a series on psalms and i think that it is going to go very good. i have enjoyed the studying i have put into it.

i saw fever pitch and in good company this weekend. fever pitch was ok but i guess im not a huge jimmy falon fan i guess i dont think he is convincing maybe its cause he always laughed during the saturday night live skits. oh well in good company is still amazing and it reminded me of aarond and amanda since they were the people i saw it with. that wednesday night was a good one and i am excited for when nikki and aaron come out there will be good times in springfield.

studying psalms has been good to contemplate where i see God and when ifeel like he is close or he is revealing himself to me. i guess this summer more than ever i have felt like i see God a little more *in focus* through my camera lens. this is when i see creation and beauty at its best this is when i feel like i could never capture the beauty he created but i have to do something and i have to try to capture it so it doesnt escape. and still i wrestle with my future does it involve my faithful friend the camera or will he just be a hobby. i suppose the future will come whether i am ready or not i just pray for the courage to follow my dreams.
