chain reaction

I woke up at 4:40am today to go to Smith Lake.
it was a mission trip to a reservation about 2 hours drive from here. It was a big Christmas thing- we put together boxes of food for Navajo families, made crafts with kids, and ate with them and hung out with them. It was pretty cool.



Rachel and Missa and I rode in Danielles car on the way there. We killed the boredom of the long boring drive by singing songs from Fiddler on the Roof. And reminiscing about The Neverending Story, Danielle giving us driving pointers, random comments. good times

When we got there, we were all split into different groups with different tasks, such as putting rice, beans, and flour into ziplocks and then putting those into boxes to give to families who needed them.

Shelby and i sorted beans. We also came up with an idea to make lots and lots of money. Raisin Bean cereal! Its like corn flakes and bran flakes, but instead itll be bean flakes. Theyre cheap, so we can make a lot of it, mix raisins in, and sell it at health food stores for top dollar. yummy!
just might work, right?

Anyway, we all had a great time at smith lake. I am so thankful to God that He lets me do stuff like this that changes my life for Him.
I worry about stuff way too much. Its only times like today that I realize ive been truly blessed.



(God has a plan for you, too)
