Summer Lessons via PICTURES


WHAT A NUTSO BANANA SUMMER IT HAS BEEN!!
Sure, nutso banana sounds like a crazy ice cream sundae or something you would find in fried form at the Texas State Fair (which can't get here soon enough), but today it is description of the Montgomery Summer O Fun! Lessons from the summer are as follows:

1. If a piece of clothing cost less than $10.00 and the tag reads "dry clean only"...disregard said tag. Just wash it normally and hang dry. A $10.00 shirt is not worth the trip to the dry cleaner.

2. Even setting a goal like "RUN A HALF MARATHON AT THE END OF THE SUMMER" is not enough to make me want to run. The half marathon is in two weeks and I'm basically just excited for it to be OVER. I hate running. I will never be a runner. And I'm perfectly ok with this fact.


3. Texas is hotter than Africa. LITERALLY. The heat. never. endssssss. here. Not to mention, at least it RAINS in Africa. It doesn't do that in Texas.



4. People in NYC aren't that nice. But Wicked is the BEST. SHOW. EVER. And my sister and I are always good for a laugh.

5. However, asking said sister to take a picture of you holding the Statue of Liberty in your hand is just an opportunity to make you look like a dumbie.

6. Africans love harder than any people in the world. Even when they have been through trials that none of us can even imagine, they have overwhelming hope and joy in their Savior. The Lord doesn't need us to minister to them, but praise God that He allows us to be a part of His plan!

7. Also, brushing your teeth with a water bottle is not as easy as it looks. I think I had toothpaste on my chin everyday, all day.

With all of those lessons (I know, with only four months, how could have I fit 7 whole lessons into my brain without it exploding? amaze balls.), I still channeled my inner Chef this summer. I'm crazy for cooking now! So up next, I will provide for the world my own personal recipe of

BRITTANY'S DELICIOUS AND HEALTHY CHICKEN LETTUCE WRAPS THAT TASTE EVEN BETTER WITH SOUR CREAM BUT ARE A LITTLE LESS HEALTHY THEN BUT I THINK IT'S WORTH IT BECAUSE I HATE HEALTHY FOOD ANYWAYS!!!

I know it'll be hard, but try to contain your excitement and get some sleep between now and the next post...
