prep week has begun!!!
and it's SOOO much fun!! i do have some pictures from the last weeks at home... if you want to see them comment and i'll put them up here. but here's some of the past couple of days. tonight we had our first "worship set". it was awesome. i am SOO floored by the glory and the wonder of God. his love is AMAZING!!! i can't even describe what i'm feeling inside. i just feel so treasured and precious and love in spite of my unworthiness and incompetence... and his love is washing over my insecurities and fears and just securing me in himself. it's totally amazing. i wish you could experience what i'm talking about.... although the kewl part of it, is that God loves YOU like that too!! i'm discovering that God LONGS to cover our fears and our self-doubts and insecurities and place instead an awe of his love and a peace and a trust in his steady hand... we just gotta dig deep, get serious, ask him, and ALLOW him the opprotunity to wash over us and change us. wow... even if i didn't go anywhere this summer... i will NEVER be the same after this week. GOD IS SO GOOD!! AND HE LOVES ME!!!!

josh has THE most beautiful voice ever. check him out... he's nailing those high notes!! it is SOOO much fun to sing with him and joe!! :)

josh helping our mascot, dino-core on the bus. he goes to dinner with us and everything. couple nights ago we went to pizza hut and josh said, "9 please" and a little girl at a table said, "8 people and a dinosaur!!" ha ha. it was hilarious. dino-core is famous and well loved... well, that is, by everyone except tim. ;)

singing our hearts out... wow. God is just so good!! :)

ha ha. i LOVE tyler. um... he's TOTALLY making fun of me right here.

ha ha. they look like twins. that's tim and jake looking dazed and confused. :)

yes, brenda and i are holding hands... but what's missing is the rest of the picture... see by my right hand there's a little cardboard ponytail... well these were cardboard cutouts holding hands so we thought we'd join in and get a picture... but anthony kinda zoomed in on us. it's ok though, i forgot to tell him. :) ha ha.
more to come!! be amazed by God's love for you today. I LOVE YOU!!! AND GOD DOES TOO!!! :)
