rockstar slash mountain man...

Sometimes it's just good to take a break. To get out of the city and kick off those shoes and splash around in a creek, just because it is sunny. And February (of course). This past weekend, after a stressful week and college visit slash volleyball tryout, I was able to spend my winter break by heading home with two dear friends of mine. I spent four days with them and their parents, and I definitely had a blast. In those four days we girls just took a break from the stress of school life. We hiked, we slipped in the mud,and we clambered behind a waterfall. We crossed creeks by jumping from stone to stone, wading, pole vaulting, and balancing on fallen trees. We laughed, we played games, we ate good food, we watched movies, we hiked some more, we played frisbee golf, we talked, we had a bonfire near their house and roasted marshmallows, we took a walk in the rain... In short, it was just a fabulous weekend with wonderful friends. I definitely praise God for his beautiful creation that I got to enjoy this weekend, and the wonderful people that I know. God's blessings are awesome.
