it has been way to long since i have posted.. all summer in fact. i guess i must catch you up on my summer.
first i went to swaziland! thats right, Africa.
it was my first actual mission trip and it was amazing! i helped with the AIDES TASK FORCE, GIGIS KITCHEN(meals for orphans), THE LUKE COMMISSION, and more. i learned alot of siswati (the language they speak). it would take me forever to tell you the details so just look at some pictures. i didnt take this first one. i wish i did but its a googled.
this was dr schelzembach looking rock were he would go to pray and think.. pretty amazing.
these are some girls that we met on the nazarene compound where we stayed. they were hilariously awesome. the one to my rights name was gci. dont even ask me how to prounounce it because i cant.

i met these girls in a small town called nzenguine, were we painted a church. the girl to my lefts name was buche', which means beauty and i miss her. i spent all day with her and i developed a relationship that i hope will last forever. someday i want to make it make to that small town in africa to see her, or perhaps she will meet her dreams and come here.this little girl was at gigis place. she loved taking pictures.

after Africa i was back for a month and then my family, nick, and i went to puerto rico to visit my grandparents. it was a blast of course!!

were pointing to the rainbow behind us.


we went snorkling and found a konk shell

one night we went out to eat.


this picture is when we went canyoning!! it was awesome!!!!! i mean, just look!

lastly, we went to south dakota to go camping with nicks family for a week. i havent uploadede pictures yet so those will come later. we got to see mount rushmore and crazy horse and the little town of custer, which is soo cute! i loved it!

well thats all for now.
