so this weekend was the nyi & nmi convention and if i do say so myself, best year yet. that is a first.
so friday night we get to the church in bradenton and i severely had to pee. i find the bathroom and of course theres a line,but it was pretty funny, the lady infront of me really had to pee too. =) then i go to find someone to sit with because i thought el, branden, and my gramps were carrying flags. but no need to fret right when i got in i saw zack and them. jw *my little cousin* like hates me. when ever i would look at him and say hi he would hide or pout. so the service was okay. mallory is such a good singer.
so during the service everyone who was 35 and younger had to go stand in the front or in the isles and whoever was over that age came and found one of us youngins to meet. they had filled out a card and then we would fill one out for them too and then they were suppose to give you a frisbee, that represented a stiring wheel, which was the theme. Well, my first lady all she said was her name and that was it and didnt even give me the frisbee. but it was all good. so then im walking back to my seat and this other lady comes up and asked if i had already gotten one, i said "yea, but you can never meet to many people" so i filled out a card for her, and it was the lady i met in the bathroom! she was so nice. her youngest daughter, who was going to be 16 died of cancer. =( i think the whole idea was pretty good.
so after the service we went the the ymca. it was really borin at first but them it started to get better. leslie was there! so i got to talk with her for awhile. i miss her. omg, luke isnt going to camp.. im so bummed.
then saturday morning we go back to the church. board of tellers #2 rocked. it juss kinda sucked that we didnt go back in a room to count the votes, cuz thats when you have the most fun. but the whole thing seemed to go by a lot faster the usual. so those who were going to the mission trip had to go over the the nmi part of the convention for a send off. it was so cute,all the little kids were in a line waving pom pom's. the bradenton bayshore church sang, they were really good. so we go back to the other convention. and we find out all the results. and then jerry made brian cry. i got teary eyed too. its a long story of why. but i think its gonna be all good.
so even though the convention isnt a very exciting place to be and there isnt much to do, i still didnt want to leave. i love events. i was sad. i miss everonye already. ='(
but of course i had to leave. we drive like 4 hours, and what seemed to be the never ending drive, and get home juss to get back in the car and drive an hour to my aunts house. we were having a party for my mom and uncle. it was okay. branden was being selfish and not listening like usual. madison was being a brat and some of tom's brothers are very weird. scary kinda. i also had a tummy ache!
missage. but on a positive note one week of school and SUMMER.
