Sleep!!

So last week sometime a bunch of us girls decided that we wanted to sleep in one of the caves that are out by the cliffs here on base. And guess what Friday was that day. A couple of the guys had found this cave a couple of weeks ago and 4 of them had slept in it the weekend before last. So us girls couldn't let those boys think they were all tough so we said we would do it too. Just to give you an idea of how small this cave is, well there were 7 of us sleeping in it and the 6th and 7th were right at the mouth of the cave, with 4 of us sleeping side by side and for one to move you all had to move with the last sleeping right next to the fire without enough room to lay flat on her back. Well a couple of the guys thought it would be funny to stay out after curfew and scare the girls at 2 in the morning. Well it worked on some of them and 4 went back into the house, but 3 of us braved the elements and stayed out the whole night. Let me just tell you that it is an experience I will remember for the rest of my life. I actually slept pretty good considering we were basically sleeping on rock. But Saturday was the only day that I have taken an afternoon nap!!
I just want to say that the people here are so amazing and we all feel like a big huge family. I am getting so much love and support in all I do, and it is so easy to give out to. So I may be teased for having a funny accent and I say "about" funny, but little do they know that it is really them that talk strange!! Only kidding. Well I love you all and miss some of you. Just kidding miss ya all!! God Bless




This is a pic of me and my small group leader Kassie. She is so amazing and trully has a heart for the Lord. She has helped me a lot and is always willing to talk whenever. O and she also brought me to Target for my first ever visit there! By the way it was amazing.
