A Day In The Life Of Me!

  I have had a hard time trying to come up with what to post on here. So browsing pinterest one day I came across a blog challenge so I think I will do that for a while to get me going again. I would love it if you would comment what you think. Today's challenge was to post a picture of myself and a description of my day.
  Today was the first day of a music camp my mom and I are doing to raise money for a missions trip to Seattle later this summer I am doing it. I woke up at 6:30 am, got myself ready, today was Hawaii theme day so I wore a colorful flowered skirt with a light t-shirt, did my make - up and fixed my hair in a half pony with a pink flower clip.
Mom and I had breakfast together and discussed our plan of attack for the day. Then I cleaned up the kitchen while Mom gathered the last minute items for camp and by 7:30 am Mom and I crusied in the jeep to the church ( it was a short cruise because we omly live 3 minutes from our church but it was a cruise none the less). At the churh we began finishing the last minute touches on the camp anticipating all the kids that would be arriving within the hour.
By 9am all the kids had arrived and mom started the activities while I set up the craft, the camp continued splendidly until 12pm when it was time for the kids to go. They left with their parents and mom and I cleaned up and set up for the next day.
In no time at all it was time for us to go so once again  in the jeep we cruised home and enjoyed a lunch of casadeas and grapes.
James and I spent an hour or so watching TV and then I had to paint my pinata for tomorrows camp day. I painted half of the pinata, set it in the sun to dry and drank the ice mocha mom had made me.
Then I went to my room where I started writing this.  After this I will go finish my pinata, clean up downstairs before dinner, if there is time help mom with dinner and then relax with my family until my dad comes back from his business trip later tonight. At which time we will regale each other with stories from the last two days, and if I have a moment to spare I may work on the my smashbook. Quick poll how many of you have heard of and or done a smashbook??? Anyway that was just a day in my crazy, amazing life. It sorta makes for boring reading on paper, but when you are living it, it is an adventure!

The One With All The Updates

Erika and Madame Blueberry   The last few months have been crazy busy, full of adventures and the like. It would take forever to tell you everything that has happened, but I will attempt an overview. Since April I was a stage manager to an amazing show called The Lonesome West . I learned so much from the actors I worked with and the experience to produce theatre in the back of a records shop.  Soon after the show closed I took my finals, loaded up my Cadillac (named Madame Blueberry) and left Ellensburg for the summer. I only had a few days to unload my college boxes and reload Madame Blueberry for my summer job. Camp Lutherhaven  Camp Lutherhaven! What an incredible, God arranged summer. There were days I wondered if I was up for the job, but the people I met and the experiences we shared were irreplaceable. When I was at college I made a comment to my mom that all I had to focus and worry about was me and how easy it was to only be concerned about myself...

What Has Kept Erika From Blogging???

After the first night of shows I was so close to getting February's post in February. I sat down to write this so many times, but with a million papers to write for school the idea of writing more at the end of the day seems absolutely impossible. Which is depressing because I love writing. However, the homework has slowed down, relatively, I mean finals are around the corner. Anyway, I did want to update you on a few awesome things that have been happening in my life. Artsy photo that I took in the dressing room before the show.  First Distracted, the first CWU show I was apart of, went up in January. It went really well I had such an amazing, supportive cast, director, and crew. My amazing, wonderful, family and some family friends came to see me. It was an incredible experience and the topic of the show was one that reached a ton of people. I learned to play a character that was completely opposite of who I am and different from anyone I know which was learning exp...

A Quick Update and Some New Years Encouragement

Kamola looks great in the snow Guys! I haven't done a blog post in so long. Partly due to the craziness of college life, as fall quarter was insanely busy and partly due to my laptop acting out last quarter. Anyway, now I am back and on a working computer. Happy New Year everyone! Hope the holidays were spent with loved ones and were a restful time for all. I really enjoyed being home for a few weeks. My family and I had a lovely Christmas spending time together and focusing on what really matters. For me it was a time to reflect on how blessed I am and what God is doing in my life. Fall quarter was extremely busy. I took sixteen credits and was apart of a production of The Nutcracker.   Through that experience I learned not only technical dance skills, but also that bullies can still exist, even in adults. Working with difficult people is sometimes just apart of life. Overall the good that accompanied that show out weighed the bad and I am thankful for the experience. ...
