Today has been a really awesome Mon. as I'm sure Peyton will also blog about since we are sharing this day together! First i studies forever last night knowing we were going to have a very long Spanish vocab this morning and then a Spanish test on wed. well this morning i wake up and first off can talk alot better then yesterday, so that's already a good thing, then we get to class and of course only about 3 of us actually knew there was a vocab quiz, so everyone was in a frantic rush to study terms when an office lady came in and said that shay (out teacher) had the flu and class was cancelled. now don't get me wrong besides the fact that we have alot of terms to learn for vocab i really do like our teacher and would never "wish" for her to get the flu, but who doesn't like a class to be cancelled when you have a quiz! so me and Peyton then go to go sit down at McDonald's and listen to all the happy employees truly enjoy being at work, that in its self would amaze anyone. so it being so early me and Peyton decide were going to go check out the new Jeff State building, just for kicks and also try to find the library down there, just because we can. Well that of course was an adventure in its self between parking on a "bridge" and wondering around into "cafe" rooms that actually mean "were having class in here but we will make you think you can come in" but again its good Mon and it didn't matter that we interrupted a class, we don't have classes down there and never have to see them! haha Mon really are good! praise the Lord, for letting me wake up and experience the wonderful small things in life like cancelled class on Mon mornings..... Anyways this week is going to be good i can just tell, and by that i mean no baby yet but this week will be so good, what else could make it better besides the baby finally being born! That's all for now, hope everyone else is having just as good of a Mon as i am! - Abby

Updates!
I know I am not very good at blogging so even though I don’t have a specific topic to blog about I wanted to blog anyways just to get in better habit of it. So anyways my sister-in-law Ashley which I’m sure most know by now she is very pregnant, has been in semi-labor since Sat. now she is almost 3 cent. And pretty constant contractions, it’s just a waiting game now until she comes. And if you have not guessed I am pretty excited to finally be an aunt! Anyways I guess that catches things up on that issue. other than that things that are going on right now in my life: I have felt the past two days like I might be trying to either get sick or I’m just struggling to fight off sick, either way good news is for the most part I am feeling better. um for a couple weeks I was kind of worried about trying to get things settled for the summer and what I was going to be doing, but I will be able to work at camp the first 6 weeks on orange team, so of course I am just over joyed about that, I love orange team and love the age of 4th and 5th grade girls because they are just starting to search for things in their life. Weather there have grown up with Christian influence or never heard about Christ before, this is the time that it either clicks as to what it all really means or they understand what they are hearing for the first time which is awesome to be a part of. And believe it or not some of the 4th and 5th graders from last year have bigger problems that any of us have ever thought about. All that to say I’m so excited! and I think I am also about to start raising some support for the trip to Northern Ireland with ucf, we have deposits due soon, and meetings all through march, and the more stuff that goes on to get prepared for that the more excited I get, especially through missions conferences Sun. every time a couple would get up to talk about where they minister to or how God has worked through their ministries, the more I just wanted to stand up and say "Lord take me now somewhere to spread your word, why and I’m here just being silent, I’m ready now!" I honestly I don’t know other then short term missions if I will be "going" anywhere but I go to school and I go to work est. I just never got as excited about it till I thought about what could happen here. And I pray that that does not just last the week after mission’s conference but that that will always be constant in my life. I do trust that the Lord will direct me to the path he has chosen for my future. I trust in Him through the unsure times and the good times, and He has always proven Himself worthy. But it’s good to be reminded of that every now and then like a friend reminded me the other day.Psalms 28:7 "The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in Him, and I am helped."
Sorry for the abundance of run on sentences, it is a very bad habit. L

Super Wed!
Ok not really super Tue is over but why not carries the super days to the rest of the week, I kinda like calling the days super! so anyways me and Peyton just finished our Spanish test which I can hope I did pretty good I mean I studied and am pretty confidant on some and not so much on others, but good news is I know I have +10 points for two extra credit papers I did! Anyways so other than that last night there were a lot of storms all over, and some 44 deaths reported in the southern states, I was thinking this morning in the car while listing to the fox morning show (I do that in the mornings now) I was thinking you know I bet those people who were either sleep or possibly up taking shelter never thought that last night on super tue would be there last tue. I wouldn’t have. I mean honestly every time we even get bad enough weather to take shelter, I never actually go to the process of "this could be it" I mean I just don’t, I don’t know if that is just being plain naive or just the thought of "that would never happen to me" either way thoughts did cross my mind this morning as I was in the Jeff state parking lot cramming as much Spanish into my brain as physically possible, I thought gosh one of those fatality could have had a Spanish test today, had the storm gone different directions, that could have been me. Suddenly learning Spanish was not quite as important, I mean don’t get me wrong school is important and I do hope I did well, but in retrospect eternity is a lot more important that temporarily. So it was just a reminder to me of how I shouldn't ever hide my faith from people because you never know when it might be mine or their last super Tues. just some thoughts. But other then that I am trying to memorize Isaiah 42, so here is today’s verse; 3 He will not crush the weakest reed or put out a flickering candle. He will bring justice to all who have been wronged. So anyways that’s it, and I hope everyone enjoys their super wed! And btw sorry again for miss spelled words I have no idea where spell check went?
