What a fun weekend; random road trip to Seattle with the girls (Laura, Elora, and Emily).  We were able to get away for a few days; go to a Mariner’s game, do lots of shopping and picture taking, and got the change to hang out with Fish, Jon, and CJ.  What a great group of people and great time away.    

I’ve had such an amazing semester getting to meet new people and find a new best friend/roommate.  I’ve never had a friend who was so loyal and easy to get along with.  We spent much time in conversation in the car, eating, sleeping, and watching Desperate Housewives.  I love her to death, wish she didn’t have to leave for the summer. Can’t wait for many more memories next year when we actually are roommates :)  

Humbled: After paying for our purchases at Walmart - the gal behind us had 2 real big balls.  Terin saw them and said, “Mom, you should get those for the gym.” I’m sure the lady didn’t hear her but just as we were pushing the cart away, the lady put the large purple ball in our cart and said she wanted my little girl to have it.  After the initial shock, we thanked her numerous times and left.  I was almost at the van when this same gal came over with the big green ball and said, “I didn’t see your son. Here, I want him to have this one.” You know, there are angels here on earth and I realized I need to at least attempt to be one to others.  I have a long way to go! Thank you Lord for the “Ball Angel” and for showing me through her kindness that I need to think more of others than myself. Bless the “Ball Angel.” 

Such an awesome last weekend with the friends.  Finished finals on Thursday, had a bonfire and played games til 3:30 am.  Friday was the best friend’s last night here…so we went to a party together, ate some Del Taco, and talked for hours.  Saturday was the last night for the seniors.  We made some music videos, played some King’s Cup, and hung out til 6:00 am.  What a weekend of not sleeping and incredible memories with friends.
