Family

It is a ranch with a bunch of cabins on the property that you stay in, a main house where our meals are served at when the bells rings (there is a 30 minute warning bell for meals as well), a pool, and horse corral- where you can ride horses three times a day if you want. All surrounded by the beautiful hill country of Texas!

So my family and I sit around for four days visiting, swimming, shopping, horse back riding, and eating! It is so nice to be able to sit down and just hang out with all of my cousins, see the new additions, and talk about life- and ask stories about when my mom was younger!

My dad and I sit out on the porch in the afternoons and just chat- about anything and everything- my sister and I sit and be goofy for hours. My favorite thing is to ask questions about life to people- I love being around family- it comfortable, you always know you are loved. And for the most part you get to laugh a lot. My dad loves to be funny- and he is. 

For the last couple of years, I have been working with a family- I have started baby sitting for the couple’s date night and now just been helping them out with whatever.

 

I love them- they are my family away from my family. I just love being around a family and being apart of something- they invite me for dinner, I helped plan the little girl’s five year old birthday party, they invite me to church. I feel apart of the family. 

It is just nice to be around a family when you are off at school, I feel comfortable with them- because I know I am loved and accepted. 

Now I have my team! who will be like my family for the next two years. We will livetogether, we will be love and accept each other. They are my sister’s in Christ. 

And everyday we will be going out meeting new girls- telling them how they are loved and accepted by the Lord. We are apart of the family of God. We are His children.
