Book Recommendation - Do Hard Things

My good friend, Jacob, recently loaned me the book "Do Hard Things" by Alex and Brett Harris and this book has grabbed and motivated me to higher goals and expectations for myself - it really made me realize the depth us teenagers have let ourselves fall to in this culture. This is a book about rebellion against low expectations.  (Click on photo to go to the Rebelution website)

This book was written by Alex and Brett when they were only 18 years old.  It gives an amazing message about defining the teen years as the launching pad of life.  These years now as a teen can be the most important years of your whole life.  What you do with your teen years impacts (either expands or restrains) the rest of your life.

This book has totally changed the way I think.  I recommend this book to any and every teen who has a desire to make an impact - no matter how small an impact they may think it is!

2015 Choir Concert

A few weeks ago, on May 15th and 16th, we had our choir concert (ya I know this post has been a little late in coming :)  But better late than never!).  I had SUCH a blast!  I hope to do a small solo next semester.  I am learning to open my mouth to sing out better...which has been a challenge for me :) For the concert choir we sang:
1. Great Day
2.Worthy Is The Lamb
3. Serve The Lord With Joy
4. Mercy Tree
5. Ride The Glory Train
6. Power Of The Cross
7. Send Down The Rain

And for ensemble:
1. Hosanna, Hosanna
2. A Jubilant Song
3. Somebody's Knockin' At Your Door
4. Tis' So Sweet

Goofing around in the car on the way there...we were a little nervous but survived :)

Yep Hannah is loosing some teeth :) lol
