Camp Yeshua

I really can't believe that I'm flying out tomorrow for Camp Yeshua! I can't wait to get there. Oh, Lord, I pray right now that you would truly bless the camp and every single camper there with your presence and a growth to be more like you!

Due to being gone, I won't have internet access, so I will be back to blogging on the 19th or 20th of this month...and I'm sure I'll be loaded with pictures and stories to tell! :)

S'mores!

We had a wonderful time this weekend with having my grandparents out here for the day on Sunday. We cooked out Kosher Beef Hot Dogs and had Potato Salad and Cabbage to go with it. For dessert, we had s'mores. We were out of homemade kosher marshmallows, so we used some of our homemade marshmallow creme which made them even gooier. Here's a picture of Nana really getting into and enjoying her s'mores! :)

Well, I finally...

Well, I finally hit my first animal when driving. We were running the paper route tonight when all of a sudden I saw a Momma Raccoon and her 3 babies, plus a 4th one that had been hit. She saw my headlights at the same time I saw her and we both had no time to react, so I ended up hitting on of the babies. :(

And I've officially started the countdown to Camp Yeshua! In exactly one week, I will have landed in Oklahoma City and been there for about 1 hour. :)

I Have the World's Best Daddy!

My daddy took me out to Dinner on Sunday at Applebee's, so we could have special Daddy Daughter Time. We call it our "date time." We left right after 11am and were gone until about 1:30pm. That was a wonderful time of just talking and laughing together. We got the special which was 1 appetizer and 2 entrees. For our appetizer, we got Honey BBQ Wings which were the best wings I've ever had. Then we both got the steak with garlic mashed potatoes and steamed vegetables. It was a good meal, but the company made the food pale in comparison. My daddy has so much love for me.

You know someday I want to marry, but as a good friend put, "Jocelin, there aren't many men out there like your dad, so I don't know if you will find one like him." Well, Yahweh, I'm holding out for the "younger version of my Daddy!"

Nana's 86th Birthday

Thursday was my grandmother's 86th birthday. We had a wonderful time celebrating with her - spent time with her and took her out to eat at Cracker Barrel's. Here's a picture of my dad presenting her with roses for her special day.

Swinging...

What a way to dig in...today at work, I was working on numbers...and in a declining economy...and most things being on the downturn, my department's numbers were compiled for April and May, and we saw a respective upturn of 53% and 26%. That just about had me swinging from the chandeliers!

Then tomorrow, Mommy and I are going to slip off for some Mother Daughter time which is much needed! Yeah!!!!!!!!

Shavua Tov!

Shavua Tov (shah-VOO-ah TOHV)
Hebrew.

Literally, good week.

This greeting is used after Havdalah (the ceremony marking the conclusion of Shabbat), to wish someone a good forthcoming week.
