so i've been gone for like 2 weeks or something and i will tell you why, its because i went on a missions trip with the youth group to arizona, to the navajo indian reservation! there is soo much that happened, i wouldn't even know where to begin. but i will just say that God worked so much in my heart & i feel so loved after that trip, its crazy.
one of the best moments (ofmylife) happened when we were there. there was this navajo lady named louva and she came with her three daughters & son in-law and they all told us stories from when they were growing up and such. & they were selling the jewelry that they make, made with real silver & turquoise & other gems. & so i got this bracelet from them
and the best moment is this: i went up to the daughter in the purple & her husband and i was talking to them for a little while and they asked me what tribe i am from (!) and that i look native american!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! they for real asked that! and it just was the happiest moment for me, & the biggest compliment i have ever received.
also, i saw the grand canyon for the first time and i cried. also, it literally took my breath away. it was so beautiful and HUGE and i do not understand how ANYONE can say there is no God when they see something like that.
after the crying
panorama.
here are some other pretty pictures from the trip.
kayla, she did not let go of me all week. so much love in that little girl.
something pretty in arizona.
the desert has the best skies. that is my theory. more on that later.
(window rock--this is like the statue of liberty for the navajo people, bigger deal for them than the grand canyon)
overall, a great trip. God's love was shown & felt by a lot of people & that is such a beautiful thing.
