Comical host family….with pics

Well today was our big trip to the beach with all the youth…there were about 9 of us…and we had an awesome time! Today was Mr. Edney’s b-day and we had a family setting type dinner around a very nice round table…and they broke out the kewl silverwear….we had a ham that had one of the sweetest smells of cinnamon i’ve ever smelt….it smelt like christmas back home…well after we ate we remained in our seats and began to play games….evidently family tradition because i was very confused with what was going on…well we played mad libs…which is kewl…i’m gonna have to get a book for when i get back to college….it’s somethin kewl we could do at becca’s house…or now jess’s…then they preceded to hand out the presents….well it was kinda funny cause as he opened his present we kind of passed it around the table so everybody could look at it and try it out….well his last present was from his daughter…and it was wrapped in this origami type thing….well he opened it up and there was a miniature baby carriage with a baby inside….lol the son asked “so you’re pregnant!?” she said 6 weeks…you should have seen the family explode into happiness…they already have a little girl…which makes what seems to be an old family all become a kid again….funniest thing though they were all high-fiving the dad and gave lots of hugs to the pregnant lady (fiona)…it was a very exciting moment for them…and it was kewl that i got to sit in on the news….if only all families were like this…to some children are accidents and they are looked upon very shamefully or with deep regret because there is a new obligation….i’d sure want to be in the family that rejoices…like i was totally blown away with all the kewl reactions….anywayz it was an awesome moment…oh yah i forgot one last detail from the beach…i tackled one of the kids and he kicked up sand all over my face…i thought i was gonna be blind…but luckily the kids led me to the water where i could wash off my face…

“Carried away” by sonicflood

You are the open door of freedomYou are the only hope I have
The reason in my reason
The only thing that lasts
How could I begin to settle
When all within me longs
To step into the shelter
Of your everlasting arms

I wanna get carried away
I wanna be tossed by your waves
I don’t care where or how deep
I’m gonna jump in with both feet
I wanna get carried away
I wanna get lost in your waves
I wanna be held by your truth
I wanna behold all of you
I’m gonna be all yours today
I wanna get carried away

Some say You’re far away
But I know You’re here with me
I could go anywhere
And still you’d be there with me
I know You’re with me
