Busy as a Bumblebee

Okay, so, is that saying really true? You always hear that people are busy as bumblebee's, but are bee's busy? I just don't know. Someone should research that, and then get paid millions. (I say that because I here such random facts and would like to know who researched that and got paid to do so?)

Anyway, if it is true, then I have been as busy as a bumblebee. At least it's all fun.

Friday I was supposed to head to Huntsville to take one of my practice tests at 7:30 a.m. the next morning. After getting home at 6:00 from being at work all day, I was absolutely pooped and knew I just wouldn't make it. Thankfully, I can take the test at a later date in July. This makes me less stressed.

Another reason that hindered my going was because we had Joanna's bachelorette/lingerie shower on Saturday and it lasted till Sunday. When I signed up for the test, I didn't know about the shower yet, if I did, I wouldn't have signed up for it. It was an absolute blast. After much preparation, and some car complications the 3 of us (me, Jen and Sal) ran all of our errands and made it to Conroe in enough time to decorate the house and be late to La Madeline's in the Woodlands. Yes, we were late to dinner. But that's what happens when a monsoon and traffic are against you. It didn't take away from the night. It was so fun, and we laughed SO much!! I am sad it's over. I want to do it again. There's just something about being with all my girls. There is never a dull moment. And oh, the cake. The cake was amazing, a barbie wearing a wedding dress. It was also tasty.

After a fun night, and late one at that, we made it home in time to have lunch with our families, take a MUCH needed nap (2 hours) and I got to take Joanna to dinner for her birthday. That was special for me because who knows where she'll be next year on her birthday.

Then came Monday. The first day of my acting career. This week at church is VBS, unlike most churches, we don't buy "VBS in a box" if you will. We create our own. This year our theme is "Deal or No Deal" meets High School Musical. Now, you may be wondering how on earth this all makes sense or even comes together to create a message. Basically, we are doing High School Musical characters (but with different names) and each day one of the characters (mainly Danny) who is Troy from HSM and portraying Daniel from the bible has to make a decision. They are offered a deal of some sort and choose the deal or choose no deal. It is fun, and I think the kids are enjoying it and catching on. The catch is that the whole youth staff, myself included, is in the skits. I am Sharpay Evans from HSM, but my name is Desire. My boss, and the youth pastor, is Ryan, my brother, but his name is Corbin. It is so much fun. We are singing songs from HSM and acting like them, which was so hard at first for me, but I think I am catching on. Today I had to bust out Hannah Montana and sing a bit of her song. OH, boy. Talk about fun.

Needless to say, it is absolutely exhausting and keeps us extra busy. As you can imagine, I come home, memorize my lines for the next day, take a shower, and go to bed. I have to get my beauty sleep! ;)

So, that is my life right now. VBS, baby. I'm lovin' it. I mean come on...We're all in this together!

Enjoy some pictures from this weekend!!
