Jesus Messiah

Okay so it's still Easter (Monday) so this post is not too late :D

Yesterday was great!
We went to church early to participate in the fundraiser breakfast for a missions trip this year and it was great to already meet a couple of people before the sermon and talk to them :)
The sermon itself was awesome and I hope that it's online soon so that I can put a link on here for you to see!

We also had three baptisms again. I love to hear all the different testimonies I get so excited when I listen to the different stories!

After church we went home, changed clothes and then went to Papa's house (Mitch's Dad - my host grandpa). We had an Easter Egg Hunt and looots of good food :) First Eva and Papa were hiding the eggs for  or the little kids - everyone had 7 or 8, one person had one color of eggs and a little sticker on them so that they don't find the "wrong" eggs :)

When the little kids were done they all helped to hide Eva's and my eggs - way up high or so hidden we could barely see them :) It was so much fun too find them and I think it took me about an hour to find all of mine. Eva's were pink and mine were blue. By the time I found three of mine I already knew where all of Eva's were :D So when Mitch and Paul gave us hints by showing pictures in which area the rest of the eggs were hidden I already knew if it was "my area" or Eva's ;)

I got a pair of socks, a mood necklace with a 'K' as a charm, a cord and beats and a treble clef charm to make my own bracelet or necklace, a pencil and music stickers for my scrapbook :) Thank you so much again!

Here are some pictures!

Love shutter speed!

Good job buddy

Good spot for the eggs!

See the easter bunny ears?

'Maybe there are eggs in the water!?'

'I wonder where the rest of my eggs are!'

Thanks for a great Easter Sunday Theis Family!

We are Family

So now I already have four different families :)

One family is probably asleep right now and lives in Germany :)

My second family and I are just back from a dinner at Bonanza.

The third family is the church and the Youth Group.

And I just joined a fourth family that stands of three girls of my volleyball team at Apollo and me. In the team we were separate in groups of three to five girls. In a group the other girls are your 'sisters' and you are supposed to encourage them before the games and give them little presents. I think that is awesome!

So speaking of volleyball: It was veeeery hard and exhausting ;)

Here is the development of the 4-hour-practice:

1. Run a mile

2. Stations (Sit-ups, Push-ups, squats, box-stepping, sprinting, blocking,...)

3. Warm up for volleyball (Building three groups: serve, pass and  setter. The serve brings the ball over the net, runs over to the other side of the net, pass the ball of the next server to the setter and is then setter himself and has to go with the ball back to the serve line...)

4. Separate in the 'sister-groups'

5. Getting jerseys

6. Workout

7. Practice serving

8. Play a couple of games of volleyball

I was super tired afterward. I brought my report card from my last school year in Germany to the counselor and talked to her again. I was a bit confused because the letter with my schedule, grade, locker number and home room didn't really fit to what we have talked about during our first appointment. I have to go there again tomorrow and I will get my new schedule and stuff :)

So after I saw the counselor a girl of my team gave me a ride home and I took a shower immediately and go right to bed then to take a nap :D

But I'm excited to go there again tomorrow!
