Prom

On Friday the 21st I went to a homeschool prom with my friend Aleigh... I have to say it was an interesting experience. The fun was all in getting ready, finding my dress, doing my nails, putting make-up on, doing my hair all fancy.. but then we got to the prom, and I began to regret it.
My eyes scanned the room, searching for familiar faces, finding none... We sat down and anxiously waited for our dinner (I was very hungry considering I hadn't eaten since 12pm). They served us some salad around 7:30 it wasn't too bad, if you ignored the brown around the edges... our dinner was served around 8' o clock, I got London Broil... it was alright. But afterward my stomach hurt. So I texted Aleigh's parents to see if they could pick us up around 10, I was going to spend the night at her house, we thought we would have more fun watching a movie or something. They told us they'd come by around 10-10:30... I didn't feel like dancing, I didn't recognize any of the music, it sounded like something from a time machine. I went out into the lobby where a girl was playing a piano (and if you know me, you know I would much rather instrumental music). I called my mom told her about all the fun I was having, and told her that Aleigh's parents would come and get us soon.. I then found a couch, settled down, dialed Marissa's number and spent the rest of the night talking to my best friend... it was a little after 11' o clock when the cell phone died. I searched for Aleigh, wondering where her parents were.. they came and got us around 11:45 took us home to Aleigh's and then my mom picked me up..
So that's how prom went... nothing overwhelmingly exciting, I doubt I'll be remembered as the girl sitting in the lobby on the cell phone...

Cameo,
Pretty, oh so pretty, oh so pretty! I feel like singing this over and over with a strong english accent!! I would have gone with you, and we would have done this fire swamp polka!! Now, that would get the homeschoolers jealous! You look fabulous darling!!! I know, I do too, but it's not about me right now, so let's get back to you, ok? I feel good as well....., I mean to say, you are awesome. Jesus is producing a tremendous woman of God. Your mom and dad must be so proud. I know that I am. I bet Jake even said how great you look. Or, at least he thought it!!
Cam, what a youth group down there in Albania. I can't describe it other than to say WOW!!! They are so gracious and active in service in so many areas. The adults hardly need to oversee the childrens work because the youth group is doing it so professionaly and so lovingly. I went to their version of AWANAS, which is called"Eagles" or "Shqiponja" and it was incredible.
You would be impressed. I am so thankful for all your prayers. Have a great day beautiful girl.
Love,
Uncle Co
