Back to Irondale

Last night, my friend Andrew and I went to the youth service at FBC Irondale. Andrew used to be the youth pastor there and I used to help out with the youth group. I was very excited about seeing my girls again! I had been emailing, facebooking, and texting back and forth with them since I saw them about a month ago.

I got into the youth room first, *hugs hugs hugs*, and then one of the younger kids that likes to hang out in the youth room before church asked if Andrew was here too. Ana, one of the youth replied, "No, Andrew's never coming back." Then he walked into the room, so that was hilarious. They knew that I was going to be there, but Andrew was a surprise.

The guy that's taken over the youth on Wednesday nights wasn't there, so since they knew that I was coming they just decided to have a fun chill night. First, Andrew and I played against each other on this really cool electronic battleship! Lisa, one of the youth girls, kept telling me where Andrew's boats were, but he still one.

Then I went to hang out and talk with the girls. We were mostly making our weekend plans (more later...) and then we started texting chacha. First, they asked, "What is the third color of the rainbow?" Then they asked, "Where is the nearest bathroom?" Chacha replied, "If you'll reply with your location/state/city we'll tell you where you might be able to find the nearest bathroom." So we replied with, "FBI Irondale, AL" because the church is First Baptist Irondale (FBI). Chacha replied where the nearest bathroom was in downtown Birmingham by the actual FBI office! haha, so they just got a little confused.

I had a lot of fun getting to everyone again. Tommorow I am picking up the girls in Irondale around 6. Then we're going to the Summit to eat at Johnny Rocket's, going to shop and hang out some, and then going to the Breaking Dawn Release Party at Barnes and Noble from 9:00 pm - 1:00 am!

Breaking Dawn is the fourth book in the Twilight series. It's a really popular series with teenagers, and is about vampires... I've actually read them all, and they're pretty good. I definitely plan on buying Breaking Dawn sometime next week... after finals! But the party should be pretty fun! We're all dressing up as our favorite Cullen (the good vampire family). I'm going to put on a lot of black eye makeup, dark lipstick, and since I have pale skin, maybe I'll look like I've been dead for like 100 years.

I wish I had some pictures from Wednesday night, but will definitely have pictures to share from Breaking Dawn!!
