Half way over

Well, I just got done with half my vacation, and I'm wanting more, although I know that too long a vacation would be disastrous for me... All that's left is a month, and then I move... Gosh, it's so close so soon, and it annoys ticks me so much! I hope I get to spend some time with you guys before I move, some of you I haven't even said goodbye to yet!

I have a couple things to say.

Today, I was working at the fireworks stand for my church. I saw one of my friends go into the RV that people stay in that has a door with a metal sliding window in it. I went to say hi. I was trying to slide it, and it got stuck. Then, it slipped and it slit open two of my fingers. Blood started oozing out of my fingers and I was in a lot of pain.

Also, tomorrow is my first Drivers Ed Class. Yeah! No. It's at 7 AM.

Well, Im gonna say bye for now.

See ya,
Jordan

I'm so disappointed!

Guys, come on! I miss hearing from you. Well, I just got back from Jr. Hi/Sr. Hi Camp. It was good. But it was seriously lacking in the activity area. For 4 1/2 hours it was either volleyball, swimming, or sleeping/talking. No organized sports which i miss terribly from the other camp. But-I could just focus on God this week, and kind of get my mind off of leaving Decatur. I met some cool people, reconnected with some cool people and stuff. So it was move, a "free" week, kids camp, a weekend, and jr. hi/sr. hi camp. Man! I am so busy.

But dude, people are going to start visiting soon! I am so excited. Please, Please, Please come visit. You are invited. If I know you, you are invited. For real. No excuses, come visit. And I will too. If you come visit, I'll visit you, so if you want me to visit, you have to visit. :)

Thank you for the memories, guys. Seth - the other day, something hit me and I said "Oucha." Dude it made me so sad/happy at the same time. I also said one of our other jokes and I was again sad/happy. I miss you. I miss you all.

Have you ever played Kemps? DUDE I LOVE THAT GAME. It is so fun. IM me and I'll explain it. Oh man.

Call me. IM me. Email me. Mail me. :) I am in the process of writing people right now.

Well, ill talk to you later! I love you.

Is seth out there somewhere?

Hey Seth-

OK, I think you tried to IM me last night, because all of the sudden this box popped up and said "Is this Jordan?" So I'm thinking, who is this lunitick? Do I have a weird stocker? Or is someone thoroughly confused? Then it said "Is this Casey or Morgan", which worried me even more because I've never even used IM (and actually didn't know I had it!) and this random person know's who and where I am! Anyway, I'm not technically allowed to use IM at this point in time, so I couldn't respond. But I felt bad and was afraid you would think I hated you...I don't!
Also, make sure you ask Joel to give you a couple of pictures that I gave to him to give you. They are from that night at Jordan's going away party that I thought you might like. Jordan, I'm going to send you some soon, I promise! And darlene, you're in the pictures too and I have a copy for you as well. When am I going to run into you?
Well, Casey won't be back on this site for over a week...I'm going to Virginia! I'm real excited, but I'll miss hearing from you. I expect that each of you will have left something on here for me to read when I get back, OK?
Blessings

Camp

Well, in a few I will be going to kids camp. Its 5:32. So early.

But I'm hoping I wont have time to sit down and think, because if I do, you know what will happen. (Kind of like Seth said). Last week at camp I found about 5 ticks on me. It was annoying. I miss you all so much. Please visit, I would be so happy!

Well, its off to camp for me, where I'll be for a week. So talk to you all on Saturday. I'll be on around 6-7. See ya,

I miss you guys so much. Please be praying.

okay...

Okay slackers, start blogging.

I just got back from dinner and before that, Kids Camp. It was cool. I met some pretty cool kids - Ike, Icys, Dylan, Donnell, Matthew, Jake, etc. I was an intern (in other words, scrubbing bathrooms, washing dishes, etc.) DUDE! I met this family, the Hockadays. Sound familiar? Maroa~Forsyth schools. Yeah, the Hockadays have family in DECATUR! So, I talked to Ben Hockaday (my age) and he brought up Monicals! Cool? Yeah. And the family gave us some Monicals dressing! Amazing!

I miss you all so much. Tonight will be the 2nd night we sleep in our own house. The first week we stayed in this resort, then 1 night, then camp so tonights the 2nd. Weird.

Well, I gotta go to the Famous 5 website.

I love you,
Jordan

I miss you all so much it is unbelieveable. I am so tired right now because:

Thursday - We worked on the house and stuff. Ran all over town. Horrible day for me. I cried so much because I realized I am never going to have such good friends like you guys. I love you.

Friday - 4-wheeled, spent the day at the lake, relaxing. i know, i know. it doesnt sound tiring. we fished, swam, canoed, paddleboated. it was nice. then...we had to scale the fish. and cut the fish. and cook the fish. and after all was said and done, i stayed up forever with some people watching Star Wars V.

Saturday - clean clean clean. i forgot to mention we were staying at a resort this weekend. well, my first job - sweep the resort home. fun. i swept the sunroom, the dining room, the living room. then i had to rake the gravel driveway because i totally messed it up while fourwheeling. oops. but hey its okay, because you know i had nothing better to doi so im fine. then i got home and the phone rang, it was eric wanting to tube. now, tubing was really really fun.

Okay, I gotta go. Kids canmp next week and we needd supplies.

See ya,
And I miss you so so so incredibly much. I love you.

skype

everyone needs to get skype, it is so cool it is like aim only a phone service and free!!! you talk over the internet with a computer mic. and speakers, it seems very reliable and clear! and free!!! if you want to use skype for normal calls to phones it is 2 cents a minute(but if everyone got skype we could just talk on there free, saving our parents cash!). for skype out(normal calls) you buy credit in advance, say you buy $10 credit that is 500 minutes! that is pretty cheap. and skype and skypeout works in 20 countries!

Feeling Empty?

Going along the same notes as Darlene and Joel, I was reading through the book of Amos last night and came across a verse that reminded me of this situation:

"I gave you empty stomachs in every city and lack of bread in every town, yet you have not returned to me," declares the Lord.
Amos 4:6

God often deliberately puts us through hardships in order to sort of indirectly bring us back to him. How many of you are feeling empty right now? How many feel as though their life is lacking something...don't be one of the ones who refuses to return to God...take protection in his presence, and get ready to be filled, or as Amos 4:12-13 says,

"...prepare to meet your God, O Israel. He who forms the mountains, creates the wind, and reveals his thoughts to man, he who turns dawn into darkness, and treads the high places of the earth- the Lord God Almighty is his name.

everyone have a good summer...

i hope all of you have a great summer despite all the recent miseries...Just remember God is in control. There is a reason beyond our knowledge why so many changes are being made. Don't worry everything will work out fine in the end!

Hey its me.

Hey all.

Okay. We still dont have Internet. Yesterday I used my Pastor's computer and today...I am at the library. Well, both Chris and I are blogging. So...we went to my soon-to-be-school. There are seriously a bazillion classes available to take. They have German, French, Spanish, bunch of music bunch of art...Get this Joel - CAD design!

I miss you all so much. Pretty much the only positive thing is that our states are touching. But-Virginia (Jay) and Arizona (Seth) arent. That is horrible. Everytime I think of how great you guys are to me, I just about cry. I keep listening to this CD Darlene gave me-it has some amazing songs on it, Cry, Someday We'll Know, Memories, and God Blessed the Broken Road. And when we unpack, I see this little thing in the corner of some boxes - <3 always-Darlene Doran. Man, I miss you all so much - sound familiar? earlier in this post. sorry if i sound scatterbrained, but I'm still reeling from leaving you all. Seeing you all waving goodbye while we drove off was so hard for me. But-coming back looking for the digital camera, haha, I was determined not to cry.

Casey-I am SO sorry that I didnt see you at Wilkersons. My family was like "change of plans. you arent going until after church." So, I am sorry. I miss you.

Well, keep in touch. Sooner or later I will blog my phone number we will get sometime soon.

Please write. I love your handwriting. I know it sounds weird, but I do. I love seeing your handwriting.
Gotta go, just got in trouble for being on this computer.

Casey's blog

Hey,
For all of you whose e-mail address I don't have so I couldn't tell you, I have a blog account now at caseybug08@blogspot.com

Good Times!

Hey all-
Thanks to those who played capture the flag last night...quite a comical experience for me, not one who is incredibly adventerous or one who enjoys running around in other people's back yards at night, jumping over creeks and through bushes that I can't really see...good times! Joel, sorry we failed at out attempt at the flag capture...hey, we tried...gonna have to make another attempt soon, OK?!!
Oh, and by the way, anyone who hasn't visited the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Museum needs to go...sounds boring, right? WRONG! It's incredible, and very entertaining...I would highly suggest it to all of you.
God bless you all in your afternoon...boys, get some sleep, OK?
Casey
