Youth convention was this past Thursday through Saturday. It was my 5th year going. It's a statewide Assembly of God youth convention for 7th-12th graders. 27 people went from my church. It was very fun and I'm exhausted! We left Thursday morning and drove 6 hours. We had vehicle seating assignments which I thought would be really annoying but actually was the best thing that could've happened. The convention part itself wasn't as good as usual. The speaker was very good, though, and we had some intense altar calls and good worship. Other then that, it wasn't how it usually is. I wasn't looking forward to it much to begin with because it was my first year without my best friends there with me. It ended up being a very good experience, making new friends with people from my youth group and getting closer to ones I was already buddies with. I had my own room of 3 other girls, Hailey, Tara, and Amber, so I was kind of a counselor :) In our vehicle, it was myself, and 3 other girls Emily, Hailey, and Mary(who was very quiet and didn't socialize much with us) and 3 boys, Alex, Kyle and Michael. We were basically best buddies by the time it was all over. It was a great experience and I'm really sad it's over! Here's some pictures.
Hailey, Jessica, and I :)
Once again.

The girls of our vehicle. Myself, Emily, and Hailey. They're both 14. I was the only older girl there, but thankfully got along with everyone, especially these 2 girls.
Us 3 again. We didn't take many pictures at all. We took this at the church after we'd gotten home.
Here's our vehicle. We named ourselves the kkahmels because of our initials. (Kyle, Karmen, Alex, Hailey, Michael, Emily, and Lindsey, she was driving) from left to right it's Kyle, Alex, Michael, Hailey, Emily, and Myself.
