It is so beautiful here. . .
Ahhh, where to begin. . .
Culver is awesome. I absolutely love these girls. I'm pretty sure they like me, too :) It's been great getting to know them and more than anything I love being able to be here for them to help them with whatever they need. Tami is a great person to work with. . . she is so much fun and she and I have a lot in common. I've only known her for 2.5 weeks and I feel like we're old buddies (even though she's 38), not to mention that I really feel like she cares about me. Abbey and I are getting along pretty well. . . we have our differences, but we're having a good time together. I'm helping teach diving which is way fun. The kids are getting soooo much better, it's great. We've had a few injuries, like girls hurting their ankles, necks, knees popping out of place, choking, hyperventilating, passing out, and the flu is starting to go around, but besides that and getting up at the crack of dawn every day, I love it here. I'm working really hard, but I love building relationships. Every now and then I have a few hours off, and I usually just chill with Tami and Abbey, talk on the phone, or watch a movie. The other day I went with Abbey and Tami to Tami's parents house for a cookout and we went waterskiing on the lake and sat out in the sun and read magazines and talked. Good times. We've had some major storms (oh! and I experienced my first tornado drill!!!!), including one on the 4th, so we celebrated 4th of July last night. I love fireworks SO much. Not quite the flashy show Vegas puts up, but nevertheless, enjoyable.
So it's official. I am going to start relaxing and trusting God. I have no reason to worry about things unless I am determined to get my own way. And really, that's not what I want. I want things God's way, and lucky for me, that's what's gonna happen, so I just need to chill. Now, I'm not going to become heartless and insensitive to problems, but I will start to chill. Or at least give it a really really good effort. Everything is gonna be fine. All I can do is pray and relax.
My parents, Andrew, and maybe Josh come in like 2 weeks. I'm looking forward to that.
