Sorry about the delay folks. I’m all sorts of behind on everything lately … I’ve really got to get my act together! Currently downing some coffee right now so I can plough through my growing pile of work (and side projects) - to hopefully get done with most of it in time for the GAME TONIGHT. Who’s with me?? THUNDER UP BABY!

Anyways, 5 things. Here goes it:

1  MY WEEK HAS BEEN FULL OF AMAZING PEOPLE AND EVENTS - Which has been completely awesome, but also completely tiring. I just dropped my sister at the airport yesterday after spending two weeks with her (1 week in Seattle for graduation, 1 week here sight seeing). But after I dropped her off, I crashed for like an entire day. Straight up sleep and do nothing. And that felt amazing.

Anyways. Just this last week has been busy with my sister and sightseeing and small group and Ryan & Luci in town. Not to mention Six Flags. Just so much going on. Great times … just thankful for rest now :)

2  OH YEAH, RYAN & LUCI MOVED TO LA - Crazy right? Just a few weeks ago I was going to the Indie Music Awards with Luci, and now they live here. And the two girls should be following soon. I cannot wait to see them! I haven’t seen Cali or Alexi in three years. So crazy.

3  NINE HOURS @ SIX FLAGS AND WE STILL DIDN’T GET ALL THE BIG RIDES IN - Seriously, how do you stay at a theme park for nine hours and not get to ride all the big rides?! In that time we managed to do one “moderate” ride, and then I was like “OK - let’s hit up all the big ones now. I’m ready.”

And it was AWESOME. All those loopty-loops and backwards and craziness. Hellz yeah.

The only one that sucked was that Green Lantern one. Not only did it just stunk, my sister lost her iPhone on the ride. And it shattered into a million pieces. Bah. Stupid.

4  I HAVE THE BEST SMALL GROUP EVER - A close second to my Summit Small Group (you know who you are). But seriously, Instagram Scavenger Hunt and crazy ukulele sessions? Wearing gold vespa helmets while dancing? Learning how to Dougie?? So funny. And well, add in some worship, prayer email chains, and great discussions. I like it.  

I’m really thankful for you guys.  

5  IT’S ALMOST OFFICIALLY SUMMERTIME - And I’m pretty sure I’m going to christen that with a viewing of “Hot Rod” and “I Love You Man.” I wish I could have a rad pool party like old times … but yes, to all those things that involve summer:  

lemonade, BBQ’s, summer blockbuster hits (and midnight showings!), s’mores, road trips (to see Mumford!), concerts, more trips to the beach hopefully, book reading

Am I missing anything from my list? Yeah. All those things please. That would be awesome.
