Festively Fabulous Fourth!!

Pastor Shettler would be so proud of my alliteration skills!! :) Happy Fourth of July!! We started off our day by going to my parents church where PJ preached an excellent service on Freedom and obeying God and those who govern us. Romans 13:1-7 if you're interested!!

As soon as I got back to my parents I ditched my church clothes and threw on my new suit Mom gave me!! Its actually cute, but not cute enough for you to see it on here! When you're not exactly skinny bathing suits can be hideous but I actually liked this one! Anyways, I thew my suit on and spent the next hour and 45 mins floating, swimming and tanning in our pool!!
I can't even tell you how relaxing it was!! I wanted to stay out longer but my parents said I looked really red :( and after the sermon this morning obedience was on my mind :) so I got out! It was so fun though and brought back all of the memories from my childhood. when I was a kid I spent allllll day outside in the pool and running around with my brother. It was fun to remember those times :)
Speaking of my brother, notice the black and pink floatie. I laid on that in the pool. Untill it started deflating. And then I had to get off blow it back up. Lay on it for about 30 mins. get off blow it back up.. It reminded me of when Kev had his first apt in IA the first year he interned. Mom and Dad stayed in a hotel and I got to stay at his apt and sleep on the living room floor. He had a blow up mattress for me that kept deflating ALL NIGHT LONG!! I was up at least once an hour trying to blow it back up. Worst night of sleep I think I've ever got. anyways as I was laying on the float in the pool and it kept deflating i was reminded of that oh so precious memory. To this day I won't sleep on a blow up mattress. Especially at my brothers!!

I love Jesus & Sephora!!

 I am not a morning person. There are very few things I will get up early for. Friday morning I got up while it was still dark outside. My alarm went off at 6:45 am and let me tell you I have not seen that time for a very very long while! However, something really exciting was happening that morning! Sephora came to Tippecanoe Mall! THATS RIGHT FOLKS SEPHORA!!!!!!!! I love me some Sephora! Yes, it is expensive, but the quality is amazing, and in reality I spend less on Sephora products than trying to find something that works with my wacky skin at the drug store. I have been looking forward to this for weeks. I set my alarm early and ran out the door in a hurry! I got to the mall at 8:02 am. Sephora was opening at 10. I was not the first person there! I was about the 12'th person there and at first we were all smushed into this doorway which was really not comfortable at all. Thankfully the kind people at JcPenney let us inside the store so we could line up outside of Sephor...

Who needs a Knuckle anyway?!

 If you are squeamish and do not like pictures of fingers stitched up, now would be the time to close this post and come back another day!  I put this picture of my struggling get up for my shower first so that no one has to see the stitches if they don't want to. Call me kind :) Also, this get up did not work at keeping my finger dry.  So last night i was opening a box of books, and accidentally opened my knuckle as well. It's funny, it didn't really hurt at the moment. I felt it of course, but it wasn't horrible pain. Blood started gushing and I ran for the bathroom to get some tp on it and bandaids. I do NOT do well with blood and seeing all of it made me a tad bit light headed. I managed to find some gauze and tape and after looking at my finger and noticing that i could see INSIDE my finger and the knuckle skin was WIDE open, I almost passed out. hahahaha.. it was GROSS! I dr'd up my finger and tried to decide if it would heal on it's o...
