Steven Curtis Chapman Concert

Just about everyone in this picture is making a hilarious face so I just had to post it!! :D

My family and some friends went to a Steven Curtis Chapman concert this weekend and it was a blast!! My brother, his girlfriend and I ( along with some other friends) were Show Hope volunteers. It was soooo much fun. We were the people that carried the buckets around for people to give their loose change. It added up to $3000 at the end of the night and someone matched the donationso they were able to give a total of $4000 to an adoptive family at the end of the night! It was amazing. We also had front row seats when we weren't working! It was a great night. We got to go back stage afterwards too and I got to talk to Mr. Trask, ( SCC's road manager) about the China trip and I am even more excited now!! Here is a ( hilarious) picture of us with SCC ( in a stuffy hallway :-)! click here .

On my way to...

On my way to where you ask?? CHINA THAT'S WHERE!!! I AM GOING TO CHINA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am sooooooooo excited!! I keep screaming every couple of minutes :-) I just got back from my last day of drivers ed class ( Hooray! its over and I passed.) I still have to do the driving part of the class but at least all of the class work is over! Well, I got home and checked the caller id to see who called while i was gone, I saw ' tenessee call' and screamed "WHO ANSWERED THE PHONE THIS MORNING?!! DID THEY CALL??! DID I GET IN??!!" I ran and checked my email and...nothing. My dad pretended to know nothing about it and said "I don't know, call mom and see if she knows..." I did, and... I AM GOING TO CHINA!!! It's been a good day to say the least. Now I get to see how God is going to provide the money and I trust that He will. Exciting stuff!
