Today, I was at church and we learned about Creation. We read through Genesis chapter 1 and then watched a movie of an artist who tells stories through sand. It was pretty amazing but the main thing that wowed me was how well he told the story. It is amazing on how everything God did was in his image and how we are made perfect in his eyes. I know how many times we read through this chapter but every time I read I seem to find one or two more things I didn't know or didn't realize before. This is what God created on each day.
Day 1-Created the heaven and the Earth, day and night
Day 2-Divided heaven from Earth
Day 3-Created the land, sea and vegetation
Day 4-Created the sun, moon and stars
Day 5-Created creatures, great and small
Day 6-Created mankind
Day 7-the day of rest.

Summer is Over!......School is Here!
Well I think my title just said it! I start school tomorrow and I am so excited!! My mom and I have ordered all the books and are ready to start a great year. I am taking one class this year on Fridays. I will be taking a science class. While I am taking this class I hope to learn more and fellowship with other Christians and make new friends! :)This year I would like to get closer to God, prepare for high school, and get closer to my parents and build a stronger relationship with them. I am so excited for this coming year! I hope everyone reading this has a great year also! :)

Hume Lake 2010!!!
OK...so the past week my church group went to the amazing Hume Lake Christian Camp. I had so much fun! :)
The theme up there was Excuse Mai!?... which shows us our lesson that we learned. Which is how to live for Christ in a ME centered world. Our speaker Ron, was the best speaker I have listened to. I loved the visuals that he showed us on how much Christ loves us. One of the verses that pointed out to me that he read to us was:
2 Corinthians 5:14
"For Christ’s love compels us, because we are convinced that one died for all, and therefore all died."
This week at Hume Lake we had many fun memories.
Here is a list of what I did.
zip lining, kayaking, playing in the highschool volleyballl tournament as an 8th grader, spending time with all of my friends and, looking at God's wonderful creation!
A couple days before we left for Hume Lake my camara broke! :( But here is my favorite picture Brooke took on her camara.

Philippians 2:14-15
Do everything without complaining or argueing, so that you may become blameless and pure, children of God without fault in a crooked and depraved generationin which you shine like the stars in the universe.
I was reading through Philippians last night and this verse really spoke out to me. So I hope when you read this verse it will speak out to you.

4th of July Fun! :)
Sunday we had a very fun fourth of July! My dad was working so we went to church just as the ladies! :) That was a whole bunch of fun! I love learning more about Christ and singing and worshiping him. We talked about the book of Philippians. Then I went to help with working with the younger kids! After church we were just hanging out around the house! I love doing that! :D
The best part about the day was visiting my dad. He was working at the airport right by the Fairplex. So we watched the firework show that the fairplex was doing. It was awesome! But it was cold! But we were all snuggled up!
This fourth of July was a lot of fun and I hope this week is as fun as Sunday!

Junior Nationals Tournament!
This past week I have been competing for Junior Nationals. For this tournament you have to qualify to play. The top 5 teams of Southern California made this tournament and one of those teams was my team! We arrived in Reno, Nevada, on Wednesday. We had 4 days of competition. (that is the longest tournament my team has ever been competing in) On Thursday we didn't play. We had a day just to hang out, watch some older teams play, and go the mall! :) That day was so much fun, just spending time with my teammates.
Our days of competition were so tiring we had to stay on a very tight schedule. The first day we had to play three matches. We won all three of them! I was so happy because if we won the two games the next day, we could place first in our pool! But then next day came and we won one of the games and lost the other! But we still moved onto the next round. After those two games my team and I went to go and see Toy Story 3! It was so great!
The third day my team went down...we lost two out of the three we played. That meant we didn't have a chance at winning the gold medal. But after that, we still tried to get the highest place we could. So we did! On the fourth and final day, we won both of our games, making us the champions of our division! I was so proud of my team! We also got a big shiny plaque!
Here are some pictures showing my trip!
