Sunday MYF

On Sunday night we had a suprise roast for the youth intern at our church because she is leaving for costa rica soon. she thought we were having a photo scavenger hunt. everyone took off but then came back as soon as sarah was out of sight. i was in sarah's group so we actually had to do some of the scavenger hunt while they set up. here are some pics from the scavenger hunt:

Six Flags!


 this previous thursday- friday olivia and i had a chance to go to six flags with our youth group for youth week. i had been SUPER excited about this trip for a long time because this would be my first time to go on a true rolla coaster. so on thursday afternoon we headed up to dallas-arlington area where we stayed at flower mound umc. we unloaded our bags and then headed to our associate pastors seminary graduation ceremony. she was very happy that we were there. after the ceremony we went to sonic for dinner then headed back to flower mound.

the next morning we had breakfast then we were on our way to six flags!! once we arrived i was sooo excited to go on my first rolla coaster. we were originally planning on going to the titan first but we took a wrong turn and ended up going to the texas giant. it was almost our turn then the rolla coaster had technical difficulties. we waited around 45 mins. then decided to leave. we headed to the titan after that. i was so scared and excited!!

Sun Drop Commercial

*UPDATED!!! video is now set to the correct music...Drop It Like It's Hot...so yeah, watch it again!!!

So, there is a relatively new soda on the market called Sun Drop, and the commercials for said soda feature a girl dancing through town while drinking Sun Drop. The music in the background is the chorus of Drop It Like It's Hot. Upon hearing about a contest to create a Sun Drop commercial to be aired on tv we decided to give it a go. And, although we cannot submit our due to age restrictions, we still wanted to make it just for fun! So, without further delay, here is our commercial:
