Flashback to Gradution

 The past four years I have prayed continuously for a true friend and if anyone would have told me I'd have a roommate senior year I would have just giggled. Yet- here is Emily! One of the greatest friends ever, but more a sister now.  Last November she moved in and she has become a big part of our family from cookouts to ER visits we've been there for each other through many ups and downs.  I owe a huge thank you to this girl! 

Nichole, my sister'n law and better half.  Growing up Nichole baby sat me and now I babysit her little girls, #3 is on the way! Love love love her!
















Meet my sister and Mom- the two most independent women I know. Not sure where I would be without these two and I'm thankful for all they have done for me.

Washington vs. Whittier middle School

             The girls were anxious to begin the trip, but now as the first night comes to a close it's widely known that everyone is exhausted.  Red in the face (from the sun of course), grumpy by all mean and just plain tired.  Getting accustomed to a new area is always difficult, but with the humid heat and little experience in the area, maps of all colors became our new best friend.  Water bottles in hand, pins hanging from all the girls necks and the race was on.  Here at NHD boys and girls all over the world find common ground very quickly when it comes first to their passion of history and second get as many new pins from as many new places as possible.  Kids literally sigh when they realize the state you're from is already shown on their cord.               The speaker was amazing; a former NHD contestant herself she knew the drills; from research to traveling tips.  Ye...

Hello again! Long time no talk?

             Updating my blog often is not as habitual as I would like, however here I am given a quick catch up.  On June 8th, 2014 I graduated from Poland Regional High school and let me just say it was quite a relief to finally be done these last four years.  It was like that of a marathon, the last leg of the race that seemed to continue on forever. I'd been impatient with life for who knew where I was going, or where the heck I'd even end up.  The last month of high school was one of the most challenging, but with a few close friends tightly by my side I made it through.             "Don't wish away high school, when you're finished you'll want to go back. Experience it all."  Advice I heard continuously from elders, much wiser for a reason.  Yet as I finished my last real day of high school emotions ran high.  Four years of ups and downs, highs and lows that seemed to feel like a r...

Costa Rica

 In February of 2012 I had an amazing opportunity to travel to Los Anonos, Costa Rica for my first mission trip.  God changed my heart here.  For 10 days a group of us from the Mechanic Falls Vineyard traveled done to love on those in the community. Together a lot was achieved. Hand in hang with the youth there we held an eye glass clinic in Jasmine (my personal favorite part of the trip) & also the males from our group went and played futbol with men in a rehab program.  In addition we were involved in prayer walks, youth group and the regular Sunday service. I love everything about the Latin America culture. God's spirit flowed through this community, it was so peaceful unlike any other place I had ever been. My heart truly longs to be back in Costa Rica with these people whom I connected so well with.  Here are just a few pictures of the views and houses of people.
