Thankful THAT there is STILL

Soooooo last Sunday, Bro. Jimmy was teaching in the adult class about having a greatful heart. He was talking about how we are so quick to complain when we have a problem, when we really just need to be THANKFUL!!!
He was like, you know, instead of complaining that your car broke down, try just THANKING GOD, that you even have a CAR, to break down! 
.
(Now I could totally relate to THAT, after $540, my car is now purrrrring like her momma! Buuuuut really, I am greatful, that I have a job, to pay the bill, to get my car fixed, so I can drive to work, and pay the next bill! ;)
.
Annnnnnd with that thought, I just wanted to say, THAT Instead of whining and complaining about all the guys that have crushed my heart, by NOT likeing me back...
.
I just want to say THAT...
I am thankful that there are still
   SINGLES GUYS, actually LEFT,
             TO CRUSH MY HEART!!!
    WOOT! WOOOOOOOOOT!!!

Happy Sunday!!!

Happy Sunday!!! :)
This is the week of Thanksgiving, a time we especially set aside to give thanks unto God! I want to start this week off by saying that I am THANKFUL for church!!! Don't ever take for granted the awesome, amazing privilege we have to be able to freely go to church... Not only the fact that we have this freedom in our country, buuuuuut because when Jesus died, the veil in the temple was torn... ALLOWING US to now be able to enter into the holy if holies!!!!

How can we say I love you?!

Yesturday, during the chapel service at GCA, the teens did a puppet show. The show was just a short lil script where this one lil girl puppet was at the store and she wanted to buy something to show her mom that she loved her.
.
So she is talking to the sales clerk and she says, but I only have $4 what can I get with $4 that will REALLY show my mom that, I LOVE HER???
.
Sooooo the sales clerk tells her, well you know, in the Bible, it says that IF you LOVE GOD, you will OBEY HIS COMMANDMENTS! 
.
The sales clerk then says, don't you realize that if that is how you can show God that you love him then that is the same way you can show your mom that you love her too... By OBEYING HER!!!
.
This got me to thinking, last month was pastor appreciation month. At our church we all did something to show our pastor that we appreciate him and took on days if prayer and fasting as well. To show my pastor I appreciate him I made my pastor brownies because I know he loves my brownies!
.
Buuuuuuuut I was thinking after that little skit yesturday, yes, I'm sure my pastor enjoyed those brownies I made him and all the other gifts that he was given. I'm sure he appreciates all the prayer and fasting, buuuuuuut above all else, what can we REALLY Do to show him our love and appreciation????
.
Yes, that's right... OBEDIENCE to his instruction!!! If he tells you to do something, you do it! If he tells you NOT to do something, you don't! You stay away from the things that he tells you to stay away from! You don't get on things he tells you not to get on. Furthermore, you don't support disobedience in others. THATS how we can show we apreciate him! 
.
I'm sure that my pastor enjoyed my brownies, buuuuuut I'm also sure that if you were to ask him, he would prefer MY OBEDIANCE over those brownies or anything else I could give or do. What do some silly brownies mean if I can't even comply to what he says???? In fact, any real pastor, with a TRUE shepherd's heart, would prefer your OBEDIANCE over a $$$million-kajillion dollars!!!!
.
Pastor appreciation month is over, buuuuuut it's not to late to show your pastor that you love him. You may be poor like that lil puppet shopping for her mom, that's OK!!! OBEDIANCE is FREE!!!

Where I want to live...

Thinking about life... So many plans, soooo many dreams... Some come to pass and some seem to slip through my fingers... People come and people go... Buuuuuuut no matter where life may take me, there is a certain place that I always want to live.
.
I want to live my life beneath the cross of Jesus. I want to sit there at his feet, beneath the cross, where he suffered an died for me. I don't want to be above him, behind or beside him...
.
I want to be beneath, where there is a constant flowing of his blood washing over me! Beneath cross, thats where the fountain of his blood goes. I want that continual purification of his blood washing over my heart, causing me to repent when I am wrong. Beneath the cross is in direct line of His blood tricking down! 
.
Beneath the cross, yes that's where I want to live!  It's not a life of glamour, fortune or fame... But there is safety beneath the cross! There is protection beneath the cross. There is love beneath the cross!!! All of my choices, will be made beneath the cross! My life will revolve beneath the cross. This is where I want to stay. My life will be constructed beneath the cross...This is where I choose to live...I'll always stay, living my life in the stream of Jesus blood!!!
.
"One thing have I desired of theLord, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the Lordall the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the Lord, and to enquire in his temple." ( psalm 27:4)

It's beginning to look A LOT like...

THANKSGIVING!!!
I just got done decorating for Thanksgiving!!!!! Awwww looks soooo cute!!! I love being festive... Whatever the Holiday!!! (: annnnnnd I always like to put the scripture bread box somewhere in! Thanksgiving is my moms favorite Holiday... NOT gonna lie... Mine is MY BIRTHDAY!!!! Lolololol... Sooooo a tradition that I started with my family, my brothers don't appreciate me for this, buuuuuuut ya know, aside for praying before the food, we have to go around the table and say what we are thankful for!!!!
The reason for the board games being out, IS BECAUSE, for some reason, I feel like board games... Annnnnnd I've been waiting and waiting annnnnnd WAITING...for someone to come play them with me!!!
Wanna come play??? One more week till Thanksgiving!!!! Buuuuuut start giving thanks NOW!!!

Talking to Anali on the phone recently, I pulled out total DRAMATICS!!! Talking about some recent stuff in my NON-existent LOVE LIFE!!! I'm like, ANALI, do you realize that, when THAT happened it was like total HEART BREAK???
.
She's like OKAAAAAAY MARY! That was NOT heart break!!! I'm like, WHATEVERRRR ANALI!!! Don't tell me its NOT heart break!!! (Don't know HOW she knew??? Could be cuz 10 minutes after my "Heartbreak" moment I was estatic about a NEW ahem...occurance you could say that took place right after the "Heart break"!) Its MY HEART ANALI!!! Annnnnd I THINK I know when its broken!!! I'm like besides, i've BEEN through heart break, soooo I KNOW!!! She's like, OKAAAAAY exactley, you'be been through it before, so YOU, of ALL PEOPLE, should know, that, THAT WAS NOT HEART BREAK!!! I thought about it for like 10-seconds, remembered all the tears, sleep less nights, etc...I was like OKAAAAAAY yeah your right...I could be SLIGHTLY exagerating!!! ;) 
.
I'm like OKAAAAAAY soooooo it wasn't a HEART BREAK....it was just kind of like a heart CRUSH...ya know??!?! It was squeezed, crushed buuuuut NOT BROKEN!!! LOLOL!!! She's like, OK yes!!! Thats A GOOD analogy and I'm glad your acknowledging the DIFFERENCE!!! I'm like yes, its just kind of like, my heart got STEPPED ON!!!

Day 1 of WCC!!!

Awwwwwwwww soooooooo the first FULL day of WCC...it was SUCH a blast!!! I started the day off by waking up at 5:30 am so that I could get dressed and my hair done while everyone was still sleeping...this is how I roll...to avoid traffic jams with everyone else in the room ANNNNNND so I  have the mirror ALL TO ME!!!
After I was ready I headed over to save seats for everyone in our group annnnnnd THEN I headed over to Starbucks!!!! Woot! Woot!!! Did you all KNOW THAT, Starbucks has SUGAR FREE mocha flavored syrup??? that was AMAZING news to me!!!  So I'm sitting there drinking my wonderful chocolateyness and a group of friends walk up  annnnnd I see its ERYNN!!!  Annnnnnd then I got to meet some friends from Oregean, (Sp?) Adriana Saucier, WHO we've been text buds already, buuuuut I got to meet her LIVE and in person but we NEVERRRRR got a pic together girrrrrl!!! Then I got to meet two other guys from there, one I forgot his name...buuuuuuuut I remet him again at Denny's...I like, reintroduced myself to him and he was like, Yeah, your Mary, I met you at Starbucks....I was like OH YEAH...I FORGOT...buuuuut NOW I forgot AGAIN!!! Oh annnnnd I met Caleb Wooten...Actually I met Luke(AKA: LukeeeeeY) Wooten too! WOOTEN...you guys seriousley is that like NOT the COOLEST last name EVERRRR??? To have the SAME last name as MY AIO HERO!!! All you girls out there, should try to marry one of these guys, JUST FOR THE LAST NAME!!! SERIOUSLY!!! LOLOLOL
THEN Anali texts me and tells me to COME BACK to the Radisson to hang out...soooo I walked back!!! Had some GOOD socializing with my friends before church....
Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!!
Then we walk over for prayer. We're about to start praying and Jen leans over to me and whispers, Mary do you have a tissue? I search my purse real quick, see that I dont have one and lean back and whisper, 
"No buuuuuuut I have some Splenda!!"
She's like, oh ok! And she's like about to start praying, when she leans back over to me and says, Did you just say, NO, BuT you have SPLENDA???" Im like, YES! She's like, that is like THE MOST RANDOMEST response! I'm like, WEEEEEELLLL...I HAVE IT!!! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

Anali, Ashlyn, Wendy, ME annnnnnd MY PURSE!!! Had to make sure it was IN the pic!!! Bettseyville...its my FAVORITE brand...basically cuz they're sooooo cuuuuuute!!!
MORE FRIENDS!!! VIvian, Rachel, Veronica annnnnnnd ME!!! (:
Sooooooo after a while, our group FINALLY decided on going to Elephant Bar to eat lunch!!! This is when the pranks started!!! LOLOLOL!!! Weeeeeeeelllllll anyone that knows Jen Connell, knows that she is a TOTAL PRANKSTER and EVERYONE is her VICTIM!!! Soooooo on the first day have arriving there, I made a beeline to her and Anali's room! Well, I see some pink papers on Jen's bed, I'm like, What are those? She's like, FAKE parking tickets! I do them to people ALL the time!!! I'm like, OOOooooo we sooooooooooo have GOT to get the guys from my church with that!!! I'm like, can I have one? She's like, oh you can have a bunch!!! I'm like sweeeeeeet!!!!
.
So On the way over to the Elephant bar Anali, YES, it was ANALI that remembered, Altho Jen WAS the supplier and I was the idea to who we should do this too, was like, HEY this would have been the PERFECT time to give the guys that fake parking violation ticket!!! Jen's like, OH but I forgot to bring them! I was like, Oh NO don't worry have the ones you gave me with me...
I put them in my Bible!
YOUR BIBLE???? YES!!! Thats right, IN MY BIBLE!!!! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
Sooooo as we drove we began to come up with a plan, I would be the one to fill out the ticket, since I have HORRIBLE handwriting and we all know that a police officer isn't going to have PRETTY or bubbly handwriting. Then we decided that while we were eating, Trinity and Bell would go to the bathroom together, since they were the youngest, they would most likely be the least noticeable to be missing...cuz I mean, it would DEFINATLEY be noticeable if MY MOUTH was missing for more than five minutes!!! BAHAHA!!!!Soooooooo we get to Elephant bar and WATCH to see where the guys park...THEN we just go and eat...
.
I got mongolian beef and Parmesian green beens...that I paid $2.95 extra for...YEs Joe, was there to remind me of how much EXTRA I was paying for them...LOL!!! Ok I like to try weird sounding things!!! LOL
We all had a good time talking and goofing off while we ate together!!! Okaaaaaaaaay this was a HILARIOUS MOMENT TO ME!!! So Joe and Anali are having a convo, annnnnnnd soooooo IF you know ANALI, she talks super fast and can say about 1000 WPM annnnnnd IF YOU KNOW JOE, he says about MAYBE 1000 words TOTAL in 24 hours!!! Sooooooo ANALI is talking and Joe is about to insert in about 2.5 words and Anali is like, WAAAAAAIT, WAAAAAIT,(Insert Spanish accent) please, JUST LET ME TALK!!! AHAHAHAHAHA!!! I just like LOST IT!!! I was like, Yeah Joe, PULEEEEEEZE...just LET Anali TALK!!! Cuz YOU KNOW she NEVERRR gets too!!! 
Ooooooo annnnnnnd it was pure entertainment and hyperness at our end of the table. We had this little girl, about 11 years old sitting with us that was like, WILD!!! I think her name was Jocelyn!!! Buuuuuut she was like HILARIOUS!!! She kept like throwing stuff at Tommy from our church and Tommy's sooooo sweet to her he ACTUALLY paid her to stop! Buuuuuut she said to be his friend it was gonna be MORE MONEY!!! I was like NOOOOO don't give her anymore!!! LOL Soooooooo THEN she goes back to throwing stuff at him!!! Soooo finally I'm like, Jocelyn come here, annnnd I'm trying to be you know, motherly to her, I'm like whispering in her ear real nicely, Heeeeey lets NOT throw anymore stuff at him ok? Her eyes get ALL big as i'm whispering, she puts her hand over her mouth and says REAL LOUD, OH YOU LIKE TOMMY??? Noooooooooo WAY!!!!! We all just busted up laughing, I must say, it was a GOOD PLOY!!! I'm like, OK that was a GOOD ONE!!! The rest of the conference, EVERY TIME SHE SAW ME, even waiting in line at the bathroom, she'd be like, HEEEEEEY! HOWS YOUR BOYFRIEND??? I'm like, Whateverrrr, get outta here!!! LOLOLOLOLOL!!!
Then I met these really nice girls...buuuuuuut I can't remember their names....Buuuuuut I gave them blog cards...LOL...Jen was SUPPOSED to tell me but she hasn't responded to my text yet!!!
Annnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnd THEN it was time to leave....which MEANT...we got to watch the guys get THEIR TICKET!!!! Oooooo us girls were like ESTATIC about it!!! We were all like about to lose it with laughter! Jen's like, lets like walk with them to the car to see their reaction! I'm like, YEAH, buuuuut isn't that gonna be suspicious??? I mean, SINCE when do we care enough to walk with them to their car...weeeeeeellllll...ASIDE FROM ANALI!!! ;))))) Soooooooo we walk over and JEn's like, HEEEEEY do you all wanna go get Starbucks? (They didn't! LOL!) Buuuuuut the still didn't notice it right away...sooooo we all just LEFT cuz we were like DYING and were about to lose it!!!
.
THEN THEY SAW IT!!! You shoulda seen them!!! They all got out of the car and were walking around the car LOOKIN and saying stuff!!! it was HYSTERICAL!!! I got pics OF COURSE!!!
Waaaaaaait... lets ZOOM in on them!!!!
BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
.
It was just sooooooo HILARIOUSLEY FUNNNNNNY!!! By the time we got back to the Radisson they HAD actually figured out that it was a joke!!! I mean, IF you really read it, you KNOW that there is NO way it could be a REAL ticket!!!!  Like, since WHEN does a police officer give you a ticket for parking SELFISHLY??? That one was my absolute FAVORITE!!! I would sooooo be getting one of those right now IF they could!!! 
Okaaaaay here is THE ACTUAL TICKET...
When we got back to the Radisson annnnnnnnnd we were all hanging out in the Coffee shop and we showed Kevin the fake ticket, he takes one look at it and says very matter of factly, weeeeeeelllll FIRST OF ALL, it looks like a KINDERGARTNER wrote it out!!! I'm like HEEEEEEEEY!!! Watch it!!! LOLOL  
.
THEEEEEEEN we were all just standing around when Sis. Jones walked into the coffee shop!!! I'm like OH Sis. Jones!!! HI!!! (She has NO CLUE who I am!!! LOLOLOL) SHe's like Oh hi, or something like that! Annnnnnd I'm like, GOOD singing this morning!!! Cuz she sang in between the first and second preacher. She's like OH THANK YOU!!! I'm like, yeah, I was sooooo excited to hear that you were going to sing, I EVEN WAITED till AFTER you were done singing to go use the restroom!!! Everyone just like busts up laughing and she's like, OH well the Lord will bless you for your SACRIFICE!!!  Which made us all laugh more!!! 
.
THEN we all went on the elevator together....annnnnnnd GOT a cool pic!!! 
Awwwww me and my FRIENDERRRRS!!! 

THen the doors opened and NO one had to get off buuuuut I see Danae!!! I'm like oh Danae!!! We need a pic together!!!! LOLOLOL So we get a pic REAL QUICK then I get back on!!!
Then I went to my room annnnnnnnnnd got ready for evening service in like seriously 10 minutes!!! I was just like, whateverrrr....my hair STILL looks cuuuuuuuuuute soooooo WHY redo it???? I mean, WHY waste time getting ready when you can spend it SOCIALIZING???
Me and Ashlyn!!!
That night Bro. Lambeth preached annnnnnd OF course I can't leave out the famous quote of the conference, with his Brazillian accent, "Hello, I'm Kris! And I'm Mr. Whitikar!!!" Bahahahaha!!! Also, he got back at his fellow preacher friends really good cuz they had been giving him a hard time about preaching at WEST COAST CONFERANCE, he got back at them by giving out their ROOM NUMBER!!! I WAS LIKE, NIIIIIIIIIICE!!!
They got a pic of me on the balcony, I thought it looked really COOOOOOL!!! I think I look like a princess looking down from her....ummmm...SOMETHING...whateverrrrr princesses look down from I GUESS!!! BAHAHAHA!!!
Then I'm downstairs and Kevin texts me to LOOK UP!!! He was on the top balconys being SECURITY!!! annnnnnnnnnd I'm NOT sure WHY but he wore his yellow jacket half on and half off the WHOLE NIGHT!!! I guess basically cuz, THATS JUST KEVIN!!! LOLOLOL
FINALLLLLLLY its like BEDTIME annnnnnnnnnnd its like two in the morning by now, I'm drifting off to sleep WHEN I remembered that Bro. Lambeth had given out his friend's room number!!! I'm like, Heeeeeeey T! We should call that preacher's room!!! What was it? Room 404??? She's like,
"GO TO SLEEP!!!!!"

Did you know???

Sooooooo THIS past Saturday, a bunch if us got to church pretty early for prayer so we're jus hanging out! So I'm sitting on the floor of the foyer chit chattin with Janelle, Sarah and Stultz.

So Sarah sits down on the floor next to me and as she is lowering herself to the ground she is like OUCH! I'm like what's wrong?!?! Sooooo she tells me that she did some new work out routine today and she was really sore from it! She's like I found out that I have muscles that I had NO IDEA there were muscles there!!!

I know, my voice is kinda nasally huh??? With the slightest twinge of a NYC accent even tho I was raised in AZ annnnnd about me being quiet and calm...The truth is that, BELIEVE it or NOT, as a child I was VERY QUIET!!!

Of course I could NOT resist taking a picture with this lil box of chocolates!!!

 Oh YES Lord, give me a submissive spirit and obedient heart in this matter!!! ;)))) Iffen it be the Lord's will I'll take a white chocolate boo too!!! AHAHAHAHA!!!!
.
Sooooooooo then we were walking around the property and they have all these cool things for the kids to do...
LIKE A FOUR STORY TREE HOUSE!!!

.
So then everyone that climbs the tree signs their name or puts there name with whoever they like!!! Soooo of COURSE I had to do this TOO!!! I know, your probabley thinking NAME??? as in ONE and NOT plural??? NAMES??? Weeeeeeelllll... there is ALWAYS ONE NAME on my list that supercedes the OTHER TEN!!! BAHAHAHAHA!!! Okaaaaaaaay ACTUALLY, my list is pretty small right now...like ONLY FIVE NAMES ON IT!!! Any guy that has made it, should feel HONORED!!! Of course, its NOT like they'll everrrrr find out...UNLESS I marry them...BAHAHA!!! Hmmmmm...I WONDER who's NAME will be written up there in the tree, NEXT YEAR??? HMMMMMM...
