Friday night was busy.  Corey came home at 5:45 and we had to eat really fast so we could be at the church by 6:30, we went with the youth to a Corn Maze. That was pretty fun…cold but fun. It’s kind of weird to be a youth helper instead of a youth specially because it was just two years ago I was a youth, I find myself still thinking I’m a youth instead of an adult it’s very weird. Corey and I are like the tech people lol. Corey does mostly video and I take pictures. I love this job because Danny, our youth pastor and also the one who married us, wants us to go on most of the youth trips. I cant complain lol. We have been doing a lot of work with them…I say we but i mean Corey.  He just finished the youth website www.ntbcyouth.org It’s pretty cool. Anyway, we got back to the church a little after 10:30 and then we jumped in the car to the fair grounds.
Friday night Corey and I had a chance to be homeless. We participated in a thing that our new church, Midtown, started called homeless for the homeless.  We got to sleep outside with not comfort except blankets and things like that. We just happened to sleep outside in 18 degree weather. We had no clue the weather was 18 degrees until sunday night.  It was freeeeezing. When we woke up we had ice all over our sleeping bags. The next day there were various activities for the homeless that we didnt stay for. If you want more information the website is www.homelessforthehomeless.com. I am never going to take all my comfort for granted.

Saturday was my birthday! I am 20 finally, I feel like I’m older than that but I’m only 20 and aparantly I look like im 12 so I’ve been told many times. I’ve actually been 12 for about 8 years now according to other people. Saturday was a good day. Minus the not sleeping and freezing homelessness when we woke up we packed up and decided to go home because we were gonna be out late and we needed rest. So we slept until 12 in our nice warm bed that we take for granted.  We went to Charlotte to Concord mills mall, and then to South Park Mall, where we ate dinner at the Cheese Cake Factorey, which was really really good. Oh!! I got three wonderful gifts from my hubby. Corey got a painter program on his computer so he can make a picture look like he painted it. So he painted one of our wedding pictures and got it printed on good size canvas along with two other smaller square canvases with two of my favorite wedding pictures on them. I can not wait to hang them up!

Sunday we had my family birthday party with my Dad’s side of the family.  I love and miss those people and I’m really glad it’s not as hard as it could be to spend time with them. I had fun and it was sooo good to be apart of that family again. I’m glad my dad planned it for me. Then we went to Corey’s parents house and helped his mom out a little. I love that family a lot!
Today is my family party with my mom, we are also getting pictures taken by Patty so she can have a video of a session, I’m excited about both.

This is an incredibly long post sorry about that. We had a busy weekend! Hope you enjoy

Happy Thanksgiving!!!
