I woke up at 1030 this morning to the bouncing of someone on my bed. Brett and I have bunkbeds, I'm on the top. Brett got up and left earlier this morning to go to a community event. I decided to use Saturday morning for God created them for: SLEEP. My sleeping habits recently have not been adequate enough (i.e.: going to bed at 330am, getting up at 715am) My body doesn't like it too much, so I'm getting myself into a routine. So this morning when I opened my eyes, I found a young lady on my bed crawling towards me. Her name is Jax. Jax (or Jackie; girl in pic w/ me w/ pink shirt) was the one that first "brought us in" to the Milligan COOL KIDS. :) She's an awesome woman of God and I'm really blessed to have a friend in her. We sat on my bed and had some girl talk (of course) and then she convinced me to go to brunch. It was pretty tasty: biscuits & gravy, hashbrowns, etc.
Today is my FIRST day that I've woken up and been able to just relax. There will be some activities later tonight such as an Organic Fest in Asheville, NC (apparently, all the hippies go there?) and then maybe some star-gazing tonight on top of Roan Mtn; maybe I'll get some homework done in there somewhere...hehe. Brett and I are supposed to go couch-hunting sometime this weekend. We've rearranged our room, making a space for a couch/sofa because there's nowhere for our guests to sit when they come to visit us. I mean, we don't want to be known as anti-social because we don't care enough to let our visitors have a seat.
There's not too much happening right now, but I realized I haven't posted in awhile. So it's a small update.

(Pictures:) #1. Jax and I. #2. Isaac and I on the late night trip up the mtn to the Firetower--I'll write about that later. #3. Milligan soccer boy: Justin. he's pretty tall. #4. We did a photo scavenger hunt for Bible study and we had to pose with mannequins.
