Kelsey Lynn

Allow me to introduce to another significant young woman in my life...


Kelsey Lynn Zehr

Now please don't let this attractive picture distract you from all of her good qualities that are on the inside.

Let me share some reasons why I LOVE Kelsey Zehr.

Nothing is more important to her than her Christian walk.

She laughs at all my jokes. (very important)

She sleeps with a stuffed animal as well. Dear, sweet Puffalump.

She likes to rub pieces of fabric in between her fingers because "it feels so good".

She talks to me on MSN while we're five feet from eachother.

She's the easiest person to laugh with and once we get going, there is no telling when we'll stop.

She's very clean and almost inspires me to be clean myself.

She gives excellent feedback when I need a second opinion.

She's got the sweetest wardrobe and if her clothes fit me, she'd be more than willing to let me borrow them.

When she talks about Hossenfeffer, her bunny, her face gets scrunched up and she can't stop smiling.

These only outline a few simple things that make Kelsey so special. She is an incredible person with an amazing heart for the Lord and a personality to lift your spirits and make you smile. I thank God for blessing my life with her presence and would also highly recommend her friendship.

As you can see, I was blessed with amazing girls this year to live with. I really didn't deserve to find such faithful friends who I love so much, but I praise God for them.

Ashley Jo

This post is dedicated to a very lovely person in my life. May I introduce...

Ashley Jordan Kiefer

Today is her birthday, so I thought, what better day to dedicate a post to her?

These are just a few of the many reasons why I love this gal:

She loves Jesus more than anything

She's very grounded spiritually

She helps me keep my eyes on heaven and my feet on the ground

She's a great sounding board for ideas

She's basically a nurse already, or at least is always giving out drugs or providing remedies

She's an amazing cook

She can always tell when something's wrong and then waits to hear what it is

She says things like "Bite the bullet" and "Bleeding like a stuck hog"

She lets me and Kelsey laugh at her

She drinks the same can of Mountain Dew or juice for at least three days

She showed pigs at the fair from ages 6-18 and wants to keep doing it until the day she dies

Well... I could keep going. But I would suggest you getting to know her better and finding your own reasons. She's an amazing girl with a huge heart that God just randomly dropped in my lap as a roommate and I would highly recommend her friendship.

Soon to come... Kelsey Lynn!

Meh-hee-ko

Hey ya'll. Ok, so right now I'm looking at my really dirty feet. I wore my Crocs tonight, which should be really good in the rain. Until you step in mud. And the shoes you're wearing have holes all over them. It was icky. So I jumped in a big puddle to help clean them off. Which kinda helped.

Well, the real reason for this post is not to tell you about my muddy feet. (Although, I know that is pretty interesting.) It's to request your prayers for the ISU trip to Magdalena. We're leaving tomorrow at 4. Thirty-hour drive. We'll be getting back the following Saturday night. If you could mention us in your prayers, it would be greatly appreciated. Pray that it will be a God-centered trip and that we'll be able to forget all about ourselves and focus on the real purpose of being down there. Pray that we have servant hearts and can give our all for His name's sake. Thanks in advance for your prayers!

Hope you all have a very blessed week! To all of you that are going to be on Spring Break, have fun and don't think about school! To any of you that are going to Biloxi or any other trip, you'll be in our prayers. God Bless!

Lovin' ya'll.

Power Naps

I have recently discovered one of my weaknesses.

Naps.

I love them. Perhaps too much. I crave them. When I'm not in the middle of one, I'm thinking about one. Even one for twenty minutes. Which is funny, cuz I used to not be able to nap in the middle of the day. And they always made me more sleepy.

Not now. I just woke up from one and I feel so warm and fuzzy inside.

I would like to shake the hand of the person who created naps.

I think I'm addicted.
