panama and camp

(had to add a pic! this is some of my favorite people and me mud wrestling before graduation!)

A lot has happened since my last post. My show. Graduation. Moving Home. It's been a crazy time, but only gonna get crazier! Which I am so ready for!

Part 1:
I leave for Panama on Sunday. pray pray pray for us. you can see what we are up to on our blog at
http://scpanama.blogspot.com/.
If you didn't know I am going there with some of the players from the men's and women's basketball teams at Sterling. We are doing a sports ministry trip down there. The men will be playing some international teams as well (we might get to too! just have to wait till we get down there to see!)

Part 2:
The day i get back from Panama i will be headed to KAA (www.kidsacrossamerica.org) for the summer. We can't have our phones or use internet so if you ever need anything or just get really bored and want to write a letter you can send it to this address.

Cookie Contest Part II

Ok..
There have been 6 entries thus far.
All wonderful.
The competition is outrageous.
There is still time to submit.
Don't worry.
But the winner will be announced soon.
Just want to let you know you are not forgotten.
My hips say so.

COOKIE CONTEST!!! (yes, I stole your idea annette)

Due to the fact that my younger cousin is a GENIUS, I thought I might steal her idea, although I know it won't work near as well as it will for her.

So she is having a cookie contest and so am I. How does it work? You guys send me cookies and the recipe for the cookies. I choose which ones are the best, with help of my roommate and one lucky other friend then whoever wins gets their recipe on the blog. And unlike Annette, chocolate does not have to be included in my cookies. I'm not as addicted as she is. :)

Here is the best part. You have the chance for your recipe to get published on possibly 2 blogs. I know... something you have always wanted.

My address is:

Erin Thiessen
125 W. Cooper Ave Box 406
Sterling, KS
67579

At least for the fact that I have 98 days left to be a college student and receiving mail is one of the highlights of my week, please consider entering the contest. Thank you.
