confirmation

I'm done. I'm COMPLETELY done with confirmation! No more quizzing over the catechism, no more memorization...ahh :)

I don't know what was wrong with me during the service. I was laughing at every little thing...I thought I was going to lose it when my friend randomly said something about turtles (Ha!). I don't think I was nervous, but maybe I was and just didn't know it?

My confirmation verse was Romans 8:38-39.

"For I am sure that neither life nor death, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord."

We all had to say our verse. I knew mine perfectly, but when I stepped up to the lectern to say it, I completely blanked out. I was able to remember it fairly quickly, but I messed up on the order of the "nor"s. Sigh.

Blonde act of the day:

As we were about to take communion, I wasn't paying attention and thought I could go forward one more step. I ended up running into the kneeler, hurt my shin, and almost fall into the boy next to me. Nice. 

Although, I am blonde, so what did I expect? ;) I won't even get into when I banged my head on the roof of the car while trying to get in...

I digress.


After the service, there were of course pictures. I really dislike having my picture taken...I'm rarely satisfied with how I look. I prefer being behind the camera. I do like how the above picture of my mom, dad, and I turned out, though. The one good picture of me in all of the pictures :)

Some were asked to see my dress, so here it is...


I just adore it! I love that it's not so fancy that I can wear it again without being overdressed. I'm still stunned - two and a half weeks later - that we were able to find one that I loved and fit! 

How was your Sunday?
