Day 226 and the Green's Come to Town

Jessie,

I love the room! It's fun seeing some of my things already being used! I was also thinking I love how bright and sunshiney all of your pictures are...beautiful! Well, this weekend the Green family (minus Amberly) came to visit us at camp. We went and ate dinner last night and blueberry picked this morning. I think I spent more time eating them than picking them, haha. We are having such a great time...they been such a huge blessing in my life this last year, I can't wait until I'm officially a part of their family :)

Love you friend!

Day 225 and A View of the Room

Bailey,
It's been a tiring week; with working before and after class, and two tests in two days for anatomy, I definitely looked forward to coming home and resting (and reading a letter from a pretty sweet guy) today. ;)
I wasn't in a really creative mood, but when I read your phrase in the 224 post, "pillow talk," my train of thought went something like this: "pillow talk... she doesn't know what pillows I used for the bed!... or the bedspread I used... or what I put over the bed... She doesn't even know what any of the room looks like!" Haha I told you I'd take some pictures of it for you, and here I am delivering. Click here to see more pics on our public Picasa Album.
It was such a pleasant surprise getting to talk to you last night as well. I know it will be hard to leave Jeff (tell him I said hi too!) but I'm definitely going to cherish this last semester together. Hurry back okay?
Love you,
Jessie Jean
P.S. I'm so proud of how "on top of it" we've been with our posts lately!

Day 224 and Reeci Moon

Tuesday, July 20, 2010Jessie,

So glad I got to chat with you last night and hear about what's going on this week. Although it's going to be sad leaving Jeff at the end of the summer, I am looking forward to spending one last semester with you! Late night pillow talk, wedding planning, 365 adventures...can't wait!

I would like you to meet my friend Reeci Moon. One of my favorite things about my job is getting to play with my John's kids Reeci, Boston, and Charli. Reeci is five years old and all girl! We love braiding hair, dancing, and playing barbies together. One of my favorite things about this girl is her sweet spirit. She is so loving toward her younger siblings, and it so evident the Lord is moving in her heart.

Tell Cale I said hi!

Love you,
Bailey

Day 223 and Dad and Me

Hey Bailey,
Love the photo, it was so fun (but not too hard) figuring out which pair of legs went with each of you ladies!
I spent the weekend in Conroe celebrating my Dad's 52nd birthday and hanging out with Cale and my family. After dinner on Saturday, we thought it would be fun to show Cale some home videos of us Sartins. So in honor of my dad and the hour we all spent watching us at this stage of life (1992ish) I made a "then and now" photo collage. I couldn't help but be so thankful for my family and look forward to making many more memories of my own one day.
Talk to you soon!
Love,
Jessie Jean

Day 222 and Like Mother, Like Daughter

Jessie,

I meant to post this yesterday, but didn't get back to camp until late (so you can totally post one tonight if you have it). I walked out of the bathroom and noticed that my mom, Abbey, and I all had the same cuffed jeans on. Not only do we share similar hair colors, the same nose, and those unique hazel eyes, but we also (sometimes) share our taste in fashion. What a great time I had this week with these two women! We laughed and talked so much....how much I cherish these moments, knowing that I will be moving away married in just a few short months.

Can't wait to hear about your weekend!

Love,

Bailey Elizabeth

Day 221 and Our Friend Reunion

It was a blessing from the Lord that is all worked out. Bailey had the week off from camp and happened to be in Fort Worth; I had Friday classes and work off (meaning I didn't have to get back super early for next day.) Waco was the halfway point so Rachel and I drove up to meet Bailey there for dinner and coffee. Oh how I've missed her, it was great seeing Bailey's lovely face and hearing her sweet voice in person. Rachel, having attended Baylor, was our tour guide, and after dinner at Food for Thought, and coffee at Common Grounds, she told us of this really cool bridge in downtown. The sun was beginning set, making for a great photo op for the project. It was hard to say goodbye, but I'm so thankful for the evening with my bff and can't wait for her to come back to College Station for one more semester.

Day 220 and Home Away from Home

Hey Bailey,
What a lovely picture of you, the old suburban(?) in the background is a nice touch. haha
I thought I'd get in Day 220 before we met up tomorrow... which I'm so very excited about! Rachel and I were talking about places we could go for pictures, I guess we'll have to wait 'til tomorrow to figure that out.
Anyway, a great amount of these summer days for me have been spent at, yep, you've probably guessed it, Mugwalls Coffee Shop. My anatomy classes have been quite a heavy workload, and having no room for distraction, I discovered that the best way for me to study involves me getting as far from my computer (aka facebook, blogs, emails, etc...) as possible. Usually I leave straight from work and study for a couple of hours each day. It's been really great getting to know the baristas and regulars who come in as often as I do. Maybe in the fall you'll be able to join me :)
Love you and see you tomorrow!!!!
