I cannot believe that TODAY starts the first day of summer. What were all those other extremely HOT days? Chopped liver? But, that's Florida for you.
Haven't really updated since school got out & a lot has happened since then. (Um, hellur, that's probably why I haven't updated. No, no, that IS the reason.) Life has been so go, go, go. Straight biz-ee. As of just YESTERDAY, I stayed home for once & caught up on some things around the house. Sleeping in has been sooooo nice. I forgot how much I LOVE to do that and because I'm 16, the right is pretty much granted to me. ;) "Mom, I'm still growing!" Ha. Yes, I have used that on more than one occasion. :)
*Sitting here trying to recall all of what has happened.*
1.) Keystone's Seniors graduated. Finally! Ha, did I just say that outloud? ;) I'm a SENIOR now...
David is a real live adult now!
So is Devin! :)
Shelby, Larissa & I are just waiting for them to officially leave. ;)
2.) Graduation Parties!
3.) LAKE DAYS! :) 'Nuff said.
4.) Kangaroo cups. Oh em gee. The best things ever created. You buy the cup for about $7 and you get free refills until September. AH-MAZING. I keep saying that I'm going to be the one who walks in the gas station, fills up my cup, grabs a snack and WALKS OUT. I'm so used to not having to check out anymore. And when that happens, I can say 'I told you so' to myself.
5.) Student Life Camp in Orange Beach, Alabama! Which was absolutely amazing. My church's youth group went away for a week to good ole Bama. ;) More like a beach retreat than camp, but it was incredible! It's always good to go away & be refreshed. Especially when Brett Younker & his band is encouraging you through their music & Matt Chandler is preaching nothin' but the gospel. We learned and studied what it means to be devoted to Christ. Finding our true joy & ultimate satisfaction in Him was also another main truth that stuck out to me this past week.
Deuteronomy 6:5 "Love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind." 
That's pretty much all I can think of. Funny that the Kangaroo cups were thrown in the mix of the things that have happened in the past couple of weeks. :)
As always, I hope you are all doing well!
In Christ,
Whitney

Thaddeus has one of those Kangaroo cups too. I think it made his life.
Enjoy your sweet summatime and keep me updated on your goings on. I'm going to live vicariously through you and be 16 again. Deal?
chopped liver is gross!
