Isaiah 40:29-31

"He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength. Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall: But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint."

Get ready for a (close up to mouth) perilous adventure. DUN DUN DUN!

Okay, last night we talked a little bit about the scouting trip that we are going to do this weekend. The area that we hoped to go to do an overnight fishing trip is going to be rainy, stormy, and crazy. But we're going to go anyways! I plan on getting ready for the madness tomorrow... I think I have all I need. I just need to fit it all in the pack and find it.

I also got to talk to Jared, Jayden, and Laraine Pearson that night. They are in a different ward, but we got to sing and chat in the hall after out activities. I think our ideas for an acapella band are getting more and more developed. Mwahahaha....

The young women did a purple party that night! I guess the young women value of the night was Integrity. The YW values are so cool! Colors, YAY! Sis. Tripp (another super-mom I know) made purple food, dressed in purple, and even did her fingernails in purple! She didn't like the dark color for her fingernails she admitted afterwards though. All of the girls dressed in purple in some way. My sister Sabrina is so beautiful; she looked really cute when she wore all purple and her stylish glasses (she's nearsighted, I think). I told her, "Hey Sabrina, do you get told often enough how pretty you look?"

She said, not really understanding the question, "Uhh, no?"

I turned and yelled to my buddy, "Hey Jayden! Get over here!" and she ran right out of those glass doors! I thought it was kind of funny the way she reacted to that.

Today mom unexpectedly had to work in the morning, so instead of getting a bunch of schoolwork done like I had originally intended for today, I got to spend some quality time with my sisters. Faidra is so cute, and is such a talkative little girl! I would say "Hey Faidra, can you say _____?" And she would cutely try to say whatever I said. Or she would pick up something like a leaf in the yard and hold it up. I'd give her the name of it, and then she'd try to say it. It was so fun! I also attempted to practice piano while holding her on my lap today. She wanted her own solo apparantly; she kept grabbing my hands away from the keys so that she could pound out her own masterpieces. Oh, she's so precious.

Well, I got to get a little over half of the things that I wanted to in school today. But hey, it'll all get done eventually. Prioritize! Event control! I picked up this new book from the free spot at the church library today. It's title is something like "10 Principles that Control Life and Time and bring Inner Peace". I know, I am a self-help book addict. It's just so fun to read them and try to apply what's in them in yorur life. Still haven't finished 7 Habits yet though. I have so much to read... I've got this political book that I'm STILL borrowing from Bro. Evans that I should finish soon and I've now got a couple of Tennis Shoes adventure novels that I borrowed from Ceana that I must finish before *remembers date* OH MAN! I need to finish those books quick!

Ah, tomorrow is going to be a good one! I hope. The trip will hopefully be a good story to tell!
