Block Party

There is this thing called a "Block Party" which LU held last night for all of the campus. We had games, tatoos, food, and other obnoxious things to boot. Here's a couple pics with my quad mates :)

So this is love .

I love college!

So I'm officially on the Liberty University Women's Hockey team. It's exciting! We do really hard core practices but all is well. I finally set up all of my stuff in the dorm room and even added some things to spice it up. Classes started on monday, and all that I am taking are awesome. It frustrates me that so much is done on the internet, like even quizzes and tests, but it's something I'll have to get used to. Food here rocks, as long as you know where to get it. There also are little coffee shops that are amazing and hits the spot when you need it. My roomies and I are getting along quite well... :) The pic that is up is regular Liberty sunsets. It's right outside my dorm and couldn't get any better. I am so glad I chose Liberty.

Liberty University

Tuesday was my first day at Liberty. Since I hadn't ever been on campus before, it was a little overwhelming to walk around and be accompanied by the 10,000 students that are also on campus. I had one last meal with my parents and then said goodbye. After I got to see Wes and Garren's townhouse for about an hour. Today we got all of our boring stuff done, and I even got a call from the Coach of the Women's hockey team to come and try out / meet tonight at their practice. I really like my room mates (some are a little creepy) but we all get along pretty well.


ill have pics up in a bit

Saying Goodbye

Saying goodbye isn't the easiest thing, especially when you have to do it 23+times. I got some good photos of the last few things the kids and I did!


Anne and I broke out the face paints and did some really awesome creations. The funny thing is, the kids all are painted accordingly to their personalities :)



Refused to be anything but Spiderman, the little punk.



Goodbye, Honduras.


sorry some of the pictures aren't in line...for some reason they won't show the full thing.

El Parque

Insane, insane week. We have been making plans with another volunteer, Laurie, to spend a week out of the orphanage in Teguc. with a team from South Dakota. We went to the park on Friday, and also had a local church come and spend a day with games and food and music with the kids. Lots and lots of activity around here!



This is at the park yesterday.

The kids are playing by the lake that some were able to take canoes out for the day.




There were a ton of different obstacles to climb!



When the church came, they got all the kids to sit down and watch a show.



Jose sleeping on my shoulder.
He was upset because Oscar was picking on him about not knowing his english numbers, and wanted a friend to hold him for a while.

Esta, Bien. Esta, Bien.

So this week has been one of the bests so far! We got to travel around a bit alone and figure out just how the city works. Besides that...I got some awesome pictures of daily life with the kids.

Graduation Week

So tomorrow is graduation day for my class, and I won't be there with them. I decided to throw a few pics up of my best's and just remind them that I wish I could be there, but rather be here!









"My Wish"
Rascal Flatts

I hope the days come easy and the moments pass slow
and each road leads you where you wanna go
and if one door opens to another door closed
I hope you keep on walkin till you find the window
If it's cold outside, show the world the warmth in your smile
but more than anything,
more than anything

My wish for you,
is that this life becomes, all that you want it to
your dreams stay big, worries stay small
you never need to carry more than you can hold
and while you're out there gettin where you're gettin to
I hop you know somebody loves you
and wants the same things too
yea this, is my wish

I hope you never look back, but you never forget,
All the ones who love you, in the place you left,
I hope you always forgive, and you never regret,
And you help somebody every chance you get,
Oh, you find God's grace, in every mistake,
And always give more than you take.
But More than anything, yeah, more than anything

My wish, for you
is that this life becomes all that you want it to
your dreams stay big, your worries stay small
you never need to carry more than you can hold
and while you're out there gettin where you're gettin to
I hope you know somebody loves you
and wants the same things too,
yea this, is my wish
