Soul Surfer Got Me All in Tears...


Hey K2 Kanakuk Friends,
Okay, so the hubs was gone this weekend speaking at a Father/Son Retreat and so it was just me and the babies. We had a blast but I am a super big wimp when hubs is gone. Super big wimpy! So I rent lots of chick flicks (hubs loves this so he doesn't have to watch them) and I stay up late (okay, by late I mean 11 pm which is like an hour later than normal. I know I'm a party animal!) so I can go to sleep fast when I hit the pillow and not freak out that he's not home. Enough back story...

So I watched Soul Surfer. I know I am a bit behind considering it came out last spring but I feel like from March-ish on we are already in Kamp Season mode. Ya'll I do not know if it was because Bethany Hamilton's story is so powerful or if it was because I have 2 little babies or if it was because the Word of God was preached in this film...but I was a mess. I mean, snotty, poofy eyes, mess. I was tearing up at any part in the movie...not even the emotional ones. I just cried through the whole deal. I just thought the story was so powerful and I loved when Bethany went on the mission trip and got PERSPECTIVE of her life. It was awesome. So impressed at a young lady who stands on TRUTH and her message of hope, purpose and Jesus was awecrepic.

If you haven't seen it, go rent. If you have seen it, go rent it again.

Be awesome & Love Jesus,
