yesterday we helped my sister move from one apartment to another.
it actually went super quick and we got everything in one load.
perk #4530459 to having tons of siblings, i guess!
also, 'suns out, guns out' was the motto for the day.
you shall see why:
{the whole gang with our guns out}
{the legit gunners!}
{the whole gang. dan was mad that i had asked only the three originals to get in a pic, and therefore refused to be in another pic. L-A-M-E!}
then (still yesterday), i came home and got to skype my bestie, tyler.
man, so much has happened since we last talked.
she is spending the semester in chile and has been there almost 2 weeks.
i found out that her and her bf officially broke up, and she is talking to someone else.
can i be honest? i was really really hurt i didn't find out sooner.
i asked her if she would be hurt on the flipped situation, and she said yes. at least that was good she acknowledged that.
i know that no one (except her mom) knows this info, but i'm her best friend
for crying out loud!
but i guess i just have to get over it and try to not let that happen again.
moving on.
so for finlay's 1st birthday i wanted to get her my favorite children's book.
well i had told mitch that it was 'the going to bed book' {we had talked about presents for her}
and guess what stinking happened. brace yourselves.
he got her that exact book!
i kid you not.
supposedly, he got 2 books at the same time {that book for himself and a different book for Fin.}
why he was buying that book for himself, who knows!
i mean it is adorable, but still.
somehow he accidentally brought her the wrong book and didn't realize it until lindsay said that i was going to get Fin that book.
so yeah. he totally pulled a jerk move and got her the book i got her!
tonight he did say he knew it was a jerk move so i'm glad he can see that it was a bit of a low move to do that!
i honestly don't know what to think of the situation and am kinda in disbelief that this really happened. LOL.
so i just have to not think about it--or i'm sure it would piss me off haha.
plus, it's just a bday gift. so there could be worse things.
on the plus side, i will keep the book for myself!
but brook was super upset with the situation.
she said it was a combination of things and i totally get that.
she can be the anger for me.
then tonight was the night of praise.
it was amazing and we did a lot on being thankful.
we had a session where we went up and said things we were thankful for.
while i didn't say anything, there were so many good ones!
one of my favorites was this:
'i am thankful because when i am not good enough or strong enough, He is'.
amen to that.
but as i got to thinking, i thought of several things i'm thankful for:
1.) Godly women who have been great mentors and shown me how to be a woman of God.
2.) my friends who have often times served more like my family.
3.) an amazing church that causes me to grow in my faith.
4.) my friend rachel w. who was there for me more than anyone. especially through my depression last winter. she listened to me all the time and was beyond patient with me. she showed me Jesus more than imaginable. i would be rude and moody to her, and come to her apologizing days later. her response? 'it's ok ann. i know this isn't really you. it's ok.' her words meant more to me than anything.
5.) the chance to live with someone who stretches me and makes me grow. what a blessing it is to be with my julia!
i called rachel and told her thanks, and need to call julia.
real quick: todays sermon was about idols and freaking blew the roof off! but my friend chloe really felt some conviction. brook and i prayed for her, but please join us. i don't know many specifics, but God does.
today was my girl kirstens {kg} bdday.
i missed dinner, cause of church, but hung with them at the pool in the afternoon and then went with them to get cake after.
i will post pics as soon as they're online!
she is finally not a teenager....booooo yah.
we spent some time discussing my 21st bday, since it's getting close.
and julianne {kg's sis} who overhead us said 'oh my gosh. ann, you can't do that. cause you're ann. and i can't believe you're going into the system!'
it was hilarious.
i can't believe i'm going into the system, either.
WEIRD.
