New Adventures, Just Beginning

I just got back from a short (left on Thursday morning and got back Sunday afternoon) but wonderful trip down to Oregon. I went to visit a school and go to a friends wedding.

When I first arrived my Aunt and Uncle picked me up and we headed straight for the shopping. Man was it an exhausting day, I had been flying all night and didn't get much sleep.

Doesn't look like much but I already starting packing it when I thought about the picture

The next we headed to Cannon Beach so that I could tour Ecola Bible School. I fell in love with the school and Cannon Beach. I now know that I will be going there for school in the fall. I can't wait!

On our way to go see Grandpa we stopped by the Tillamook Factory and got to try out the cheese and get some yummy ice-cream.

After the visit with Grandpa was over it was time to head back to Tillamook for a friends wedding. The Wedding was beautiful and I am so thankful that I got to go. I am also very blessed to know the couple, Matt and Kellie, I love you two dearly.

Congrats Matt and Kellie

The next morning I had an early flight back home, airport at 6:30 am... and now I am home where I get to unpack only to re-pack and head out the lodge very soon.

Closing Out The Chapter

I Finally Did It!

Jeremiah 29:11

On Wednesday May 16, 2012 I walked across a stage and got my High School Diploma. It has been a long haul for me the past 13 years, always striving to do my best. All my hard work paid off. I have my parents to thank for pushing me to always do my best and my brothers who were always there to help me with my homework when needed. I can't forget about my best friends 3 who have been with me since kindergarden and one who we picked up in sixth grade. We all did it together and it feels so great to know we are done. Here are some pictures from the night.

Fundraising

So as you may know I am planning on attending Ecola Bible School in October. One thing is they don't have the regular scholarships that you can apply for like "normal" four year colleges. I am trying to raise money for myself so I won't have to take a huge loan.

I have been making homemade greeting cards (with the help of my lovely mother) and decorating composition notebooks to sell at my moms store (Home Again Decor).

 Notebooks!

Cards!

I am also doing a Scentsy fundraiser. My party closes on May 28, 2012. I plan on doing it a few more over the summer too. Right now I have smell samples, catalogs, and oder forms at the store. So you can stop in and check them out. Or if you want to do it from the comfort of your home you can go to https://akamber.scentsy.us/Scentsy/Home and order right from the site, just make sure to click on my party.

If you know of anyone interested in cards, notebooks, or Scentsy send them to Home Again Decor, or to the website for the Scentsy.

Thanks!
