Last weekend my whole family, a friend and I took a nice, long trip up to Cincinnati! My Dad was asked to preach at Cincinnati PBC. We all had a great time and enjoyed the sites (thanks Sis. Christy and Sis. Rebecca!)... The weather was LOVELY too :) Unfortunately we forgot to bring our camera's along to take pictures of the sites. :(
But we did get this picture through Hannahs' camera~
All of us in the Cincinnati church parking lot.
This weekend was our May meeting. We had a great time and had blessed services! The preacher stayed with us, so we spent the week days getting ready for that.
These days we have been trying to finish up school for the summer. We only have about 2-3 more weeks. Right near the end of the school year is when you get really anxious to get finished... I think I've hit that point!
Anyway, my older sister, Hannah, heard about this "sugar fast" and decided to try it out. She also asked a friend and I to do it with her. The rules are simple.. Just don't eat sugar for 40 days! WHAT???? Are you kidding me?? No sugar? Alright, so if there is sugar in your casserole, fine. You can't really help that. But no visits to the desert table, concession stand, candy isle, or syrup on your pancakes kind of thing (etc)... And the chocolate :( .... For all you chocoholics out there, believe me, it's not so easy! The sugar fast is supposed to make you feel more "cleansed" and just feel a LOT better. I'm on my 3rd day. So, here I go on another one of my crazy adventures! Why I'm doing this? I don't exactly know.. maybe for memories sake I guess? But anyhow, I think it will be exciting (AKA just plain torture... dreams about chocolate truffles..coke..) LOL ;p
MMMmmmmmmmm......
*eying the cake* Hellllooo gorgeous!
So, just a little heads-up on what I've been up to. I'll keep you up-dated on our little torture, *ahem* I mean "sugar fast". But as for now, I think I'll head to bed and see what Nancy Drew is up to right now....
...And dream of chocolate... ZZZzzz...

Hey Abi! Did you hear about the sugar fast from Abby T. at church? I'm doing it, too. I reeeeaaaallly miss chocolate :)
the other day, i ended up eating desert because we were at someone's house and i didn't want to not eat it because she had made it, so i ate it. after that, my stomach hurt, and i realized i didn't actually enjoy the desert as much as i thought i would. but now, i won't be tempted to eat more! :D
