To The Sea

okay, so it wasn't the sea that we went to. it was a lake. but it was still a lot of fun!! i was pleasantly surprised actually. the morning started out with me and Sarah going to the gym for a spin class which was an hour and a half long. and if you don't know, spin class can be super tough but super easy depending on how much resistance you add and stuff. but if you know me, then you know that i like to make things super hard and i like to be better than everyone, so i pushed myself to the limit! i was definitely shaking by the end hahaha. and then we went to the lake today and went jet-skiing and tubing which was soooo fun!! and that gave me an arm workout haha. i was stoked cuz they actually let me drive the jet-ski!! it was fun  :) i dragged the two girls on the tube behind me and they had fun until we hit a huge wave and they both skidded across the water. needless to say, they were pretty much done after that haha. luckily that was about 5 hours into our lake trip, so just a half hour or so before we actually skidaddled out of there. but yeah, being dragged on a tube with a 12 year old by a man who gets pure joy out of seeing people fly through the air and lose their bathing suits was quite the experience hahaha. out of the 3 times that i fell into the water, no i take that back, out of the 3 times that i FLEW INTO the water, my bathing suit bottoms almost fell off every time. one time they went all the way down to my shins and i was so thankful to God that the lake water was murky at that point hahaha. but yeah. definitely an arm workout haha. it was practically a competition between us (me and Sarah) and Matt. we tried our best to stay on and he tried his best to flip us into the water.

so, this week was amazing. like i mentioned before, i realized that i have to believe in myself and just let God do his work. and it's definitely had an influence on my life this week. i can feel it :) and it feels awesome!! and that's not a word that even comes close to describing how it feels. so, i'm just excited to see how God can keep shaping and molding my life. and i'm grateful for all the people in my life who are there to remind me of all those things all the time :)

and that's life through the eyes of a banana munchkin.
