Yesterday iw oke up, stressed to get everything ready to leav in time for Ericas wedding showe,r and left. So i am twenty minutes away from her church (wher ethe shower is) and i am like "YEAH! I AM ONLY GONNA BE 20 MINUTES LATE!!" like sooo excited.
then i hear this noise like a gang of motorcycles, or a really big truck is coming up beside the passanger side of my car, so i turn aroudn and look..and no one is there.. and there is smke kinda coming out of the bakc of my car. Then this guy points at my back right tire, so i pull off the road. the tire has a huge hole in it. I had a blowout. going 75 in the fast lane. fun stuff.
So i am like..crying..because not only am i way late to ericas shower, I have NO IDEA how to change a tire, or if i even have a jack! so i call up erica crying and she sends her josiah to come rescue me. Well he gets there like 20 or 30 mineuts later, and i am still crying in the car, and he teaches me how to change a tire (while changeing it) so i am thankful. Then we drive to his hosue and leav emy car there, and go to the party. It was kinda funny. Erica had to say these 10 weird vows to josiah, and he had to serenade her on a baby gutair to the themesong of "the barny song" and then he gave baby levi (turbo and cindiys baby) tghe gutair. it was cute. Okay, so they opened gifts and stuff, and then a lt fo peopel left..and I had this really aweosme drink!! i was like..gingerale and hawiian punch with sherbert in it. sooo goooood. mmmmm.
okay so....this crazy lady who thinks she is a pastor (ike the HEAD pastor..i dont agree witht hat...)shows up uninvited, and says we are all gonna pray for erica..and by erica..I thought she meant we were all gonna lay hands on erica and josiah and pray for them as they start their lives together. i was like cool. and so the lady annoints erica with oil, and josiah sits down. i am liek...what? so then this lady starts like, yelling at the top of her lungs to jesus to heal ericas hip (which may not even have anything wrong with it) and is like...i dunno.. expelling demons from ericas hip. It was so crazy, then her and her firned starting screaming in tongues, and i almost pissed my pants. I was praying silently to myslf before they starting yelling, and i felt God on my face and was so at peace and stuff..and then they start yelling in tongues and they pushed erica on to the floor. like..they ATTACKED her. It was so biazzare. and then afterwards, erica and i were sitting togetehr and i was playing with her hand or whatever, and the two ladys, and one of the ladys daughter was asking erica if she felt anything..and erica said no, because she didnt, and they bassically called her a liar, and they got all perosnallly offended. and then they offererd to pray for michelle (josiahs sister) but she said no, because she had to dirve her grandma home (which was true) and then they pretty much told her she was a heathen and that "they knew" why she didnt wanna be prayed for.
adn then cindi (seriously one of my new favorite people) told them that she wasnt cool with it..because somewhere in the bible (i dont personanly know what they ae talkingabout..any help?) that is says that God is supposed to give translators when people speak in tongues, or it is jsut speaking? or something????
but anyways, cindi is the coolest mom ever, and her and i are so alike on so many levels, it is cool. Hopefully I will be able to go to her shouse tomarrow for bible study if i ever get my car fixed. so yayyy!
and THEN after all of that, we went to go see ELF!! which actually kicked a lot of butt! I love that movie! I thought i was gonna hate it, because.. the previews were really lame...and then i usually dont liek movies of that type..but..i loved it! it was so funny!! If you wanted to go deeper in the movie..a lot applied to Jesus and the Christain walk and stuff..so that was relaly cool.
"I am sorry i ruined everything, I am levaing..I am also sorry that i shoved 11 cookies into the VCR...."
