Happy Things of the Week

1. An awesome church service Sunday. The Gilmore family are providing really
good music for our services. They had guitars and a bongo drum. It was
amazing to hear answers of prayer that we had prayed for the week before. God
truly does answer prayers!

2. I went to my first ever drive-in-theater Monday night. I went with a couple of
neighbor ladies. It was nice to sit out under the dark sky, eating popcorn and
drinking Mountain Dew. We watched "Up" a new animated film. It was a good
experience!

3. I went to the creek one afternoon with Pearl, Monique, the boys, Autumn,
Meadow, and Rashida. It was fun back-floating. It was such a hot day. The creek
felt great!

4. I also went to another creek Sunday afternoon with Rashida and Meadow.
Rashida splashed me. It was so cold. Then we put our whole bodies in the
freezing cold water.

5. I enjoyed getting up pretty early most days this week. I exercised about 4-5
days this week.

6 Shabatt meal was really nice last night. We had lamb, and a really good
cucumber salad, among other things. A really nice family came over.
They had two sweet children, one of them was a little adopted boy from
Guatemala. It was great hanging out with them and Promise.

7. We had two really good prayer meetings this week. The prayer was really
good at both of them.

Happy Things From This Week

I love this place where the music is played!

The quaint country store!

Most of the singers at the store


All of the Rubies Girls left this week, and Mercy went on a trip too!



1. A good week in the office. Not a whole lot of stress!

2. Wonderful Mutton Chops and venison at the Campbell table this week!

3. A very interesting book that consumed a lot of my spare time this week.

4. Getting up early to exercise a couple of mornings this week. There is a certain
spot where there are lots of squirrels, and one morning I was watching them
up in the trees, as they jumped from tree-to-tree.

5. Visiting, snacking, and sitting underneath a tarp in the warmth of the day at
Tiveria's birthday party

6. Having clean bathrooms.

7. Sitting on the deck in the nice warm weather, talking to Eric, and then eating
fresh pinepple, drinking grape juice, and then painting my toenails.

8 Going to an amazing little old-fashioned country store today to here some
Bluegrass kind of songs. They sang, "On the Wings of a Snow White Dove," " Will
the Circle be Unbroken," and "Precious Memories," and other songs. It was fun.

was accompanied by the girls. It was so amazing!

7. Exercising has been good, when I have done it this week.

8. I went to Cherish and Chalice's birthday party last night. It was nice to feel at home, and

Praise the Lord for a good week!

8 Happy Things From the Week

2. We were able to go to Ann Severence's this week again for prayer meeting. Good prayer, good
food, and good fellowship.

4. I had a wonderful chocolate bar. It was like 70% chocolate. Really good!

notebook. It causes me to think more that way.

Allison children!

My Trip to Kentucky and Michigan

About two weeks ago, Eric came down to pick me up, and brought me to KMBC, where I had went to Bible College, and where he lives, and where my sister, Mary, is going to school. I have lots of friends there too. So, I stayed with Mary in the girls dorm, and I had to sleep on the floor. I got to go to the church where Eric is preaching at, and meet the people there. They were quite nice. It was really fun, getting to see a lot of my friends again too. We did some premarital counseling there too. That was really good. It was a really fun week. Then on Sunday we went up to Michigan to visit with his family. They were nice to me, and pretty easy going. On our way back to Tennessee we stopped at the Bass Pro Shop in Louisville and had fun shooting target animals. When we got back that night here to the Campbells in Tennessee the girls had the lights off, and they were going to try to scare me, but I heard them laughing, so I knew what was going on, it was funny. Well, back to work, and I think I am going to have a good summer!

About two weeks ago, my boyfriend Eric, and my sister Mary, came down from Kentucky Mountain Bible College to see me for the weekend. I was so happy to see them, and we had a marvelous time. I hadn't seen Mary since mid January, so it was great to be able to see her again. I am so glad Eric brought her along. Eric and I sat outside on the deck for awhile the evening they got here. The deck here at the Campbells is really nice, and they even have lights that go around the deck. Very romantic! My sister was like the papparazzi taking pictures of us the whole time she was here. It was funny. Sunday, Mary and I rode with Eric to the little home church the Campbells and us girls go to in Lyles, Tennessee. It was a very good service. When we got home, we had a really nice lunch, and then Eric and I went on a walk. It was a marvelously beautiful day! So nice. Later in the afternoon, we all kinda wanted to do something, so we hit on the idea of going to our friends, the Jobe's house down the road. They have a creek on their place, so we decided to go to it. Mrs. Campbell let us take their van, and Eric drove, and all 3 of the Rubies girls, Mercy Campbell, me and Eric piled into the van and went. The Jobes have a beautiful farm place, and an awesome creek. It was the perfect day for it too! We had fun in the swimming hole, and walking upstream through the creek, and skipping rocks. It was a lot of fun, very storybook like if you ask me! After that, we went to get some supper. It was fun. Eric and Mary had to leave really early Monday morning, but I had a great time with Eric, and Mary too.

We had a fun Easter here at the Campbells in Tennessee. We went to a home church in the morning, and then we came back to have a picnic with Pearl's family, Rocky's family, and Evangeline's family. Then us girls took pictures and got pictures taken of us. It was nice. I am so glad Jesus rose from the dead, and we have a reason to celebrate!
