the end of school is FINALLY getting near for both patrick and i! if all goes well (and as planned), i should be graduating next spring with my AS in speech communications...and patrick shortly thereafter with his certification in paramedics and/or firefighting...it has been a long, crazy, time. but in the end, it will be SO AWESOME to be done!!!
in addition to our work and schooling, we both have felt very called to start working with the youth group at our church (peach tree church of christ). we both had excellent experiences when we were in the youth groups (with time focused on personal growth in indivudal realtionships with Christ, fun activities, and building great realtionships with the other people in the youth group), we really desire to give our youthgroup a -smiliar expereince - to the best that we can! we have been very busy with it though!! we have SEVERAL fundraisers planned for the summer to save up money for our big trip to disneyland! we are going to spend 2 days in the parks...i'm very excited! even though patrick and i just went to disneyworld... i havent been to disney land in years! (and they are actually very different =] )
our first big endeaver of a fundraiser was a bake sale, where patrick mastered his bobby crocker cooking skills and made two AWESOMELY DELICIOUS cheescakes!! they were a big hit... however, i did try to warn him that if he started making cheesecakes, he might be forced to make them more often since that is one of my major food weaknesses! =) well, it's prolly about time to head out and start gearing our for our next big fundraiser... a service aution... people get to essentially "buy" us for labor! im excited cuz it will be a different experience for every one... the youth group was a little hesitant when we first proposed it to them though! but i think it will be a decent success.
