mmm mmm good stuff!

Yayyyy! I have bunches of great news!! First of all I got a new camera!!!! I'm sooo excited!! :D yay yay yay! Seriously, the day before I left for Iron River I was in wal-mart having the guy go back to get a camera for me! I was gonna buy one! On a whim!! :0 I finally heard a page for me and I snapped out of my sudden terrible idea, told the guy to nevermind and walked away. I started to think of all the things I could use that preciously saved up money on. things that are in dire need! (Such as visiting my sister or all the pressing finances needed for the coffee shop I'm helping to s tart) So everyone and anyone who sees my amazing Uncle Jim family...thank them graciously for me! Tell them I love it and they're amazing. :D Look at it! look at it! Its pink! Its so pretty!!! But speaking of Coffee Shop...yeah. CornerZone is this nice little place three doors down from my house that was already set up as a youth center and has concerts....annnnd is connected with He-Brews coffee and music. (If any of you know about that ;) ) So we had a nice little meeting today and they went through what all of my jobs will be and everything. What they told me I am is a "Head intern" is my name. They said that they want me to be an intern still because they don't know much about me and so they can't put me into leadership. So thats ok huh? My jobs though....are like...a million. Basically I will be running the coffee shop and anythi ng that has to do with coffee. There will be others to deal with the actual venue part of it. But I am running the coffee so they'll need me there for concerts as well. i will be the one hiring people and everything or picking out volunteers. I need to get a lot of things done by next tuesday so they can go over it, show the board and all that good stuff. Things like making a typed copy of what I feel God is calling me to, and when I plan to be working, who I will have working with me, when my plan is to open, and blah blah blah. So. I have a lot of work to do. We went over like...tons of other things and this guy Mike Reynolds who I met a long time ago was there. I was certain when we first met that he had a crush on me, and then he found me on facebook and asked me to share with him my heart on what I hope to do at the coffee shop....over coffee or something. I totally thought he was trying to find a way to ask me out. So when I saw him there today I felt really bad cuz I didn't know he was a part of the cornerzone enough to be a part of our meeting! Like hes one of the people in leadership yo! Oy. I feel a lil stupid. :/ But kinda funny. anyway. Pics of the beautiful place...with my new camera! Introducing Jill! Annnnnd Wilson! These two are heading this opporation and are my go to people. Jill more Than Wilson. Heres the gamer place...I totally set it up Couch and room of many purposes....not yet cleaned out. Ok, first the girl's bathroom. How cool is this!? And then the guys....do you see a difference? ...poor things. How can they be happy when pottying


and...the beautiful kitchen. the things in the kitchen at least



On that note I shall go. I'd like to show you many more pictures...but first I have to get it cleaned up better. I have a lot of stuff going on. People moving out, me moving in.......theres a lot. This thursday I'll be back in there so yeah. Our tentative opening date is December 2nd. :D Yay! yay yay!

I'm thinking about starting another He-Brews Coffee and Music in Menominee Michigan. I'm only 18 but I strongly feel that God has something amazing planned for me no matter what my age is.
He's been telling me that He's gonna pave a path for me. Hes gonna demolish mountains and make the valleys level to show me the path I'm going. I'm seeing a path with this He-Brews Menominee, but I'm waiting for the "go for it" from God.

When I was thinking about it later I thought "well, we'll be needing a pastor as well." as soon as I thought that I had a picture in my mind of my dad's very good friend who was a paster. He ended up dying, but his son is now with us in He-Brews Iron River. I had an immediate picture of him behind a pulpit. :) It was kinda exciting to me. My only problem is that I'm single. I love being single. But if I were to start a venue there would be musicians my age coming through and I'm rediculously stupid sometimes. So perhaps the Lord will wait for me to be married. Or maybe He has something greater for me planned. I do not know. I'm waiting for those mountains to be leveled. I'm waiting to see the clear path that He is creating.

Prayer Request: that the Lord will show me this path, and teach me how to get there and lead me on that old worn path of righteousness :D
