everything I have done the past few...weeks?...sort of

So it's been a long time since I have blogged, and its not even like I've been that busy! I'm just enjoying the last few moments (days really) of freedom before school starts-so sad. I'll be going into 8th grade. Its kinda weird I don't feel any older but next year I'll be in high school-even weirder. Since I haven't started school I guess I'm not officially and 8th grader, I am at church though. All the 8th (9th now) graders moved up last Sunday, so sad most of my friends are 8th...I mean 9th graders. Mrs. Elizabeth is still our small group leader so thats good.
Jerry is going to be starting another church so he leaving. thats sad. He's been the youth paster here for 8 (I'm pretty sure thats what he said) years now. But its really cool what he's doing, and he's still going to be in the city.
Dylan came to visit today at church. He said he would but I kinda didn't believe him. I mean he moved to Austin, and he's gonna come all the way back here just to come visit for a weekend? But he did. He was all excited to get to see everyone again.
September 4th is Daddy's BD, the opening game of football, and the first day of drama. I'm really excited about drama starting and really excited for the play. I've been in it since 5th grade (3 years) and acted in 3 plays and teched for 2. We're only doing 1 play this year which is kinda sad, but it will still be good. We were going to do this really serious drama play, about these girls in 1910 (I think) who didn't fell like they were getting payed enough for all the work that they were doing-and they really weren't getting payed enough-so they went on strike and its about what happens to them and everything they go threw and how they win the strike. But Mrs.Miller gave us a choice, do that play or do a melodrama. We had to vote and everything and the melodrama won-hard core too. So thats the play we will be doing. I'm not to sure what its about but it will be a lot of fun and I'm excited.
I don't think were going to be starting to work on the play till after Christmas break though. For the fall semester we will be learning about improve and the rules to it. Who knew that there was rules to improve? Crazy. But I'm super excited for that too. I actually really like improve. I wouldn't think it would be something I would enjoy so much, but that doesn't scare me at all. I told Becca I think its because I'm not afraid to forget any lines-since I'm making them up on the spot. Which is kinda like writing, which I love doing.
Oh and I got a hair cut last...no thats wrong...uh two Mondays...?...ago. I don't know. Some time and it was a Monday, it was the week Becca was here before she went back to Baylor. Any way its a lot shorter. It only hits like my shoulders now, and Becca convinced me to let her give me bangs so thats even shorter. I can still put it in a pony tail but its so small! Every time I brush my hair its weird cuz I expect it to be longer...and its not. Weird.
Well I can't think of anything else to say and this is already a pretty long blog-by far the longest I have written so far-so I guess I'll be going now.

:) :-/ :-? :-o :-D B-) :-))

Lake

So we went to the lake yesterday, that was fun. Mom doesn't really know how to swim so Dad and I were trying to teach her a bit. We were there for a while and I only got a little sunburned on my face but you can barley even tell now. Which is a lot better than when I got sunburned last time.
Yeah so that was fun, today is Wednesday Becca is coming home from Mexico on Sunday-Yay! We have to leave the house at 5AM-boo :(
