A Couple Of Busy Weeks

Well, have any of you noticed I've only posted once or twice in two weeks? Isn't that just terrible?

Well, I think I'll give you a glimpse of what's been going on lately. Now that I can use my Papa's super computer, I'll post plenty of pictures...


As many of you may know... I've been to a wonderful short retreat, and met wonderful new friends...





After camp, and on the same Sunday it finished, my friend Anna came home to spend a few days while her parent were out on some kind of seminar.
We went for a lovely outing on the first day. My legs ached awfully, but oh well... I had fun anyway! I was able to take a picture of this little butterfly.
We went for a walk on the beach on the second day... Ohhhh... it was beautiful! The sky was totally blue, there wasn't a cloud in sight, and it was warm and... well, I don't know how to describe it.

Then they went home on Thursday, and next Friday my sister and I went to a youth outing with the same friends from the camp. We stayed the night at a friend's house, and next day we got all together at the train station and walked around.
Then we had lunch... that was the fun part... we went to TelePizza... and had fun with the coke tins when they were empty!

See what I mean?

Then when I got home I went upstairs and instead of going to my usual bedroom I had to turn left and walk to the small bedroom... and I found myself with this! I wonder what my face looked like when I saw it, because my Mummy said "Anna is having a silent fit"! It was really in a big mess... we ended up with a huge pile of hangers out of use... and we ended up throwing away a huge pile of things...
By now the bedrooms are about right and everything in its place...



This week I have also met three friends who also have blogs...
- Sil, and her blog Sil*] for Christ!
- Nathan, and his blog Dorian Eril
- Nathanael, and his blog Nate's Spain Trip

And oh well... now I am back to studies, lessons and all the rest. In short, to normal life. So this is what I've been up to these last days.

Bible Camp!

This past weekend (14th to 16th) I have been very blessed to attend a youth retreat with some friends I didn't know but I do now.
Oh, I had such fun! We had Bible Studies, played games together, talked a lot and had good times with everyone... I really am happy that God allowed me to go!

Here are some pics... enjoy them!

This was the house where we stayed during the camp. It was very big, and tiring to go up the stairs, I can tell! *grin*

This is a pic I did just for fun, placing my camera on the floor of the yard outside the house.

We girls had lots of fun playing with our cameras in the bedrooms... the foot with the orange shoe is mine, just in case you wanted to know! *smile*

This pic was taken the first night, quite late, I must say, but we couldn't sleep, and so we played a little... I love the star we did!

This was the view at night from our window... I fell in love with it at first sight... but it was even nicer at day!

See what I mean? You could even see the sea!

These are Damaris, in the left, and Miriam in the right. Such good friends! I love them very much!

These are Damaris and Cris, at breakfast table the last day... we were playing once again with our cameras!

This is Silvia half asleep, after breakfast. Cute!

This is Damaris, starting to run in a game of baseball. This game was lots of fun, even though I didn't play.


This is my shadow, during the baseball game!

We were playing a hand clap game here. I don't really know its true name, but we really had lotsafun, like I like to say.

We also played lots of football. The one in the centre, about to kick the ball, is Daniel.


This was my favourite part of the camp. We just lied down on the football field and watched the stars, and joked and laughed so much! I really liked it.


And this is the whole youth group. I want all to know I love them so much and I had so much fun with them, and I can't wait to see them again!

The whole camp was lots of fun, and a big blessing. I hadn't had so much fun in my life with Christian friends before... I LOVE YOU!

What Do You Think?

Taking advice of a certain post I once posted, and answering to some of all of you, I have changed my template. I've been thinking about it for some time. After all, the template didn't suit the weather over here at all.
So I hope all of you like it! It's nice and bright and sunny... :)

Gone With The Lord

My cousin-in-law passed away yesterday.
I would like to ask all of you to pray for my cousin Jane, she needs lots of strength and help from the Lord in these difficult moments.
I am happy to say I met my cousin-in-law before he went to be with the Lord, and was blessed by his friendship. I am very sad now...
Pray hard for all of us. Thank you!
