Basketball camp

I just finished a Basketball camp this summer at Broadneck High School with the the BHS Bruin girls BB Team players. Camp was from 8 am to noon, 4 HOURS???? In this top picture you can see us after we just finished are stretches.
We shot a lot of baskets, so here I am shooting (but I am blurred). We also played games and went to different stations to practice shooting, dribbling, passing, and boxing out.
This last picture is of what we do at the end at every day. We all come into the middle and tell the coach what we have learned that day and then one of the players holds the ball and everyone puts there hand on the ball and say, "Go Bruins" and the day is over.

I loved it and I wish I can do it again.

My Friend Abby



This is one of my best friends Abby. We have played together a lot this summer. She left today on a vacation till' Sat. I can't wait until she gets home so we can play.

Whenever she comes over we usually play DS against each other. As you can see in the top two pictures. But some times we play Phase Ten.

I like Abby as a friend because I feel comfortable telling her things.

This summer I've been doing middle school bible study every Thurs. At bible study we play games like hide-and-go-seek, signs, or big booty after we have are talk about the fruit of the spirit. Bethany Thortin usually leads it. in the picture above there's Bethany, me , and her dog Lola. In the other two pictures there is my whole class. We just finished making puffy paint t-shirts and on it I wrote, " I live for hide and go seek!"
The bible study is CRAZY but I love it!

Women of The Bible







Yesterday me, my mom and some other people from the church went to see a play called Women of the Bible. It was a one man play. The women who acted it out got dressed up in different wigs and costumes,as you can see in the pictures, and acted out Rebekah, Women at the Well, and Ruth. I loved how she made it really funny. She doesn't have any hair.But she doesn't have cancer, her hair is just falling out.


I loved it and I would love to go again.

For the past week we have been at WSS (White Sulpher Springs) because my dad speaks there. This picture is of all the staff introducing themselves the first night. The one with the microphone is Majd who is Heather and Ben's friend in Jordan.The one to the right of Majd is Chesley my teacher.
Every year they have a sports afternoon.This year they played soccer and kickball.It was a lot of fun. I scored two goals. That is the soccer field.
That tuesday my class went hourseback riding. I had the tallest horse named Siss. My friend's horse, Sisco, started bucking up and he fell off.But he got back on.

My favorite part is square dancing and dinner on the porch. This is me square dancing. I always ge dressed up.
This is Faris and Majd who are both from Jordan. We are at the bon fire and s'mor night.

I had a great week and I was sad that I had to leave.

Fourth of July


Every Fourth of July we go to AACC for the fireworks and see are friends from church. Except this year we didn't stay for the fire works because dad had to get home because he had to finish his sermon and he is still recovering. Its weird because it is not on the 4th it's on the 28 of June. They have a band first and then when it gets dark the fireworks start. It was a hot night but it was fun. I brought the football and me and dad threw a little bit. Do you see how I was wearing my patriots jersey and hat. They bring snow cones and ice cream trucks but food is expensive. I was going to go home with my friend Emily but i decided to go home with mom and dad.
Tomorrow my mom dad and I are driving to WSS because dad is going to speak. I can't wait to go rock climbing, horse backridding, and fishing. It is A LOT of fun.
Keep reading to read about my week at WSS. I will try to fit in writing,

Summer is not Summer without Swimming




This summer I have been doing a lot of swimming at two different pools. One pool is the smits and the other is the Woodfins.The picture right next to this is Caire Woodfins pool. Claire is the one with the orange goggles on top of her head. The other pool I go to is the Smits pool. The Smits are Tanya who is at the bottom on the slide and Clarize who is at the top of the slide sitting behind me.
The other thing I have been doing is something for are church called TNT. It is for middle school. In the top right picture is TNT at the Smit's house. We sing and then we have a little bible study. Also in the beginning we get to go swimming. It is 7:00 to 9:00 P.M. every Tuesday.
Well I got to go to TNT now.
