A bit of catching up to do:

Much has happened since the Top 10 Reasons to go to the Easter Festival, so here I am to quickly summarize the last week or so in bullets:

• Easter Festival was AWESOME! (We served about 2,000 people!)
• Easter Services were great...Audie and I bought the same shirt and wore them with white capris so that we would be matching...and we told Jenny to wear a similar outfit....
• 

Aren't we just the cutest? :)

• I had a fun Easter afternoon with the Aunt Maggie & Cousins Megan, Tori, and Amanda--we ate & dyed eggs (my first time!!) and watched both Hairspray and Blind Side

This one was my favorite color...
BUT... this one was my favorite...

...because in case you didn't know: "I freakin' love giraffes!"

• Not much has happened since then aside from regular school work & papers being due. (OH, that reminds me!! I got my counseling paper back --I wrote on counseling children of divorces-- and my prof gave me a couple of suggestions for improvement and then asked if once I corrected if he could have a copy to hand out to his patients because the content was so good!!!! I got an 87 on it too--my Turabian citations weren't that great.).
• I had sno cones with my prof's wife Sara last Thursday. Might I say that I just love sno cones? I just love sno cones. Yummm. Made me really miss my sno cone buddy, Kendi, but I was excited to spend time with Sara discussing fun activities for SCS students!!
• AND, the best news of all............................................

I'm officially a SENIOR!!!!!!! only 19 more hours until I graduate!!!!

Audie update.

I had blogged on the 29th about Audie being sick. Well, actually, I copied PJohn's blog about Audie and pasted it into mine....

Anyway, my point is to update you on Audie. She is out of the hospital and doing well, praise God. I'm so excited that I got the privilege of coordinating meals for her and Tim. And, it was really easy...in about 4 hours or so, I had enough meals for almost 2 weeks. And I still have people calling me. :)

Thank you, God for helping Audie to feel better. We still don't know what's going on with her, but thank you God for laying your hands on her and making her better.

Audie

From PJohn's Blog:

"Our Children's Pastor - Audie Lawley - has been in the hospital a couple of days now fighting an infection and dealing with issues that are preventing her from producing blood to fight the infection.

The Dr.'s still aren't sure of the cause of the infection and are running many tests . . . Please pray for healing and peace . . . and pray for her husband Tim to be encouraged and blessed.

"I will extol the Lord at all times; His praise will always be on my lips. My soul will boast in the Lord; let the afflicted hear and rejoice. Glorify the Lord with me; let us exalt His name together.
I sought the Lord, and He answered me; He delivered me from all my fears.
Taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the man who takes refuge in Him.
Fear the Lord, you His saints, for those who fear Him lack nothing. The lions may grow weak and hungry, but those who seek the Lord lack no good thing." (Psalm 34:1-4, 8-9)"

Please pray that the docs can figure out where this infection is coming from and how to get rid of it!
