What A Trip....

Alright...none of ya knew it, but I was gone to Ohio for a whole week!!!!!!
Oh goodness....what a good time. We went there for a conference put on by Vision Forum and NCFIC (National Center for Family Integrated Churches) called The Sufficiency of Scripture. IT WAS GREAT! Not only were the speeches amazing and very thought provoking, but I got to meet a few old friends and made some new, now very dear friends who actually live here in NC! *is excited* We also went to the Creation Museum that was made by Answers in Genesis, and mom and I went to a Korean restaurant in Cincinnati! (and let me tell you, people...it was SPICY! You wouldn't think it...but oooh boy...we tried Kimchi, Korea's favorite dish....let me just say....have a gallon of milk close at hand!) And for those of you who don't know what Kimchi is, it's kinda a fermented cabbage. Sounds disgusting, but it was unique tasting...if you can get around the spicy side of it. =D I also got to try tofu, and it was pretty good. The only thing I ate that wasn't spicy was the rice. Everything else was...torture...in a fun sort of way...which makes no sense...but it's true. =D We sat on little mats at a low table and got to eat with chopsticks...now I can say I've mastered that art. =D
The Creation Museum was AMAZING! I walked in and was so overwhelmed! It was breathtaking, to say the LEAST. We stayed at Embassy Suites and got a view of the Ohio River. Actually, we were IN Kentucky, but the address was Ohio and you could see the city right across the river. I got some great pictures...actually took 197 on the whole trip, and will be posting them in categories later on as soon as I get them downloaded. (Trust me...you'll get pictured out!)


I will be posting pictures shortly, Lord willing, and I strongly advise that you look up Paul Washer. He was one of the speakers and not many speakers make me cry...which he did. Please look him up.

Also, we got to see The Mysterious Islands! Oh what a God-honoring movie! If you have not seen it...GET IT AND WATCH IT! It's a must, for sure. I got to get a poster and it was signed by the cast. Daddy also bought the soundtrack, which I haven't stopped listening to yet! Please watch that movie! You'll LOVE it!

In Christ,

Why would fermented cabbage be disgusting? That's what Sauerkraut is... With some added vinegar...xD

OH! We almost went to the conference too! We couldn't though. :( My brother-law's sister and mom went to it also.

Yes, I totally agree, the Mysterious Islands was amazing! I was able to go for the very first premier of it in San Antonio! so much fun...hope you have a wonderful Christmas and New Year!

It still strikes me as rather amusing that you say "this really sweet family" or whatever...I'm not sure how we really stand out from any of the other families at the conference.
And I'm certainly not the kind of person everyone's dying to meet(the guy who's really good looking, has a nice-sounding voice, is famous, etc. etc.).
I think your saying you like asian people is kind of interesting (and slightly amusing as well)...
maybe that explains part of it?

By the way, (you don't have to answer this) What were some of the "slang terms for 'you' 'thanks' 'sorry' and so on" you had in mind?
Just wondering, since I can't think of any at the moment.

Oh, not to nit-pick or anything,
but under your posts, (where you rate them) you might try changing some of them from "alright" to "all right" and add the "e" to the "wast" to make "waste."
I'm not trying to be rude, but since you like proper English - actually, the Brits speak English; we speak American ;) - I assumed you might be somewhat of a stickler for spelling, punctuation, grammar, etc. like I am, although I do make quite a few grammar mistakes, and sometimes think the "correct" way sounds unnatural.

Lastly, if I anything say is rude or anything that's just not nice or whatever, just tell me and I'll try to do things differently.
Sometimes I don't catch my mistakes.

Hi Max. =D
No, nothing you said has offended me. =D
What I meant by "slang" would be "u" "thnx" "sry" that kind of thing...but it's not a huge deal. I had had someone post a comment using nothing but slang, and I myself could barely read it, although the "slang" above is nothing like that comment...it doesn't really matter to me. =D

Anyway, thanks for the tips and comment. =D

In Christ,
