Friday!!!

Yeah...it's finally Friday.  I've been so ready for Friday all week, and now it's finally here and almost already half way over.  Anyways, Charlie laid down to take a quick hour nap before he has to work the night shift tonight, and I just got done packing for my trip to Hampton, IA this weekend so I thought I'd blog real quick. 

We once again had a busy, but nice day together.  Charlie worked until 3:00 this morning and then woke up at about 8 to head over and help a buddy's dad out in the field.  Since I really wanted to spend time with him being that we had opposite schedules once again this week, and since I am going to be gone singing all weekend, I knew the only way I'd get to spend some time with him is if I'd go ride along.  So, that is what I did :)  I really don't mind riding along in the tractor with him, I actually enjoy it.  It's kind of nice because you're stuck in one tiny place and all you really have to do is..."talk"  my favorite lol ;)  Let me tell you though, they really do not make tractors very comfortable for a second rider.  I think I was sitting on an arm rest or something which was very hard and I couldn't keep my but on the dang thing for the life of me.  I kept bouncing around and sliding down.  Oh well what do you do right? 

Then after helping disc/field cultivate for awhile, we quick ran some errands around town, and then came home so I could get packed, and so Charlie could get a quick nap in.  I'm looking forward to this weekend but at the same time I'm a little nervous.  Tomorrow afternoon I will be speaking with a room full or girls along with two of my other sisters (Kelsie & Jasmyn) on the topic of "purity" (Kansas & Kasondra are going to be leading another session).  I have never felt like I was blessed with the ability of public speaking, but when the people putting the event on asked if we would speak, we couldn't say no.  When God asks you to do something, you don't argue, you don't question Him,  you just listen right?  Anyways that's the way I feel about it.  So, please keep me/us in your prayers as we share what God lays on our hearts this weekend.  Then later tomorrow evening we will be sharing in concert with the community.  I am looking forward to this concert as we will be sharing some of the new songs of our our newest album which is releasing in THREE DAYS!!!   And then on Sunday morning, we will also be sharing a praise and worship set with a church down there.  I am excited for the weekend and to be used by God.  I have learned to put my trust in Him and just know that if I am faithful He will use me and work through me in ways I can't even imagine. 

I hope you all have a wonderful week-enjoy the beautiful weather!
