Ze Rules!!

• Thank the person who nominated you

Fairly straightforward. Shall we begin?

Ze Questions!!!!!!

(Just gonna admit real quick, I LOVVVVE answering questions people ask me)

1. How would your perfect day go? Hmm… good question… I probably would get to sleep in, eat coffee for breakfast (yes I would do that ☕️), then hang out at a water park or beach with my peeps for the rest of the day with a picnic and other fun stuff. ❤️ #Beachbabe
2. Who is someone who inspires you a lot? That’s an obvious answer… MY MOM! My mom is great y’all! Kind, considerate, loving and compassionate, she is Super Woman! She not only cooks and manages to keep the house clean with 5 insane kids in it, she also has taken on for 11 years the significant task of homeschooling the above mentioned 5 kids, 2 of which are high schoolers. Wow. 😳🤩😱🤯😮😲😯🙀 How talented can you get?
3. What are three things you like and love about yourself? Oh Gosh, you had to ask that! I struggle with not thinking very good of myself… I kind of like my hair… until we cut it… I like my fingernails, however weird that may seem, andddddddd….. I like the color of my eyes. There! I did it! Moving on!
4. In which movie would you have liked to be a character in? Which character? (Example: Jasmine from Aladdin) Ooh!! I would have to say Belle from Beauty and the Beast (Live action) or Moana. Maybe Ursula… So many possibilities! I love acting too!
5. If you could eat one last meal before you died, what would the meal be? That’s a hard one. I would probably pick something Italian like noodles… 😋I LOVE PASTA!! 🍝❤️

Thanks for nominating me again Amy! That was a lot of fun! I think I nominate two people, if I’m allowed to do that… My Mom and my little brother, Andrew!

Hey guys! Man, I haven’t written in forever, I have like a hundred drafts that I never went back and revisited so that I could post them. But! This time I will post this, along with the answers to a couple questions I have been asked, via the comments on the previous post.

Well, I thought I was going to get a bunch of pictures… but due to technical difficulties, I will have to forgo the pics.

Anyway, we’ve been doing a lot of stuff. In the midst of it all somewhere, the Gosherts caught COVID! We had a ball and did many things in quarantine including COVID Olympics, a laser maze, and chilling. Also, as a recap, Andrew and I celebrated our birthdays, and we moved to JAARS, which has a PLAYGROUND!!!! How exciting right? God really does work in amazing ways. It has been a lot of fun getting to know new people in the surrounding apartments and at the two youth

Now! For ze questions!

Q1: How did you come up with your tag line?

A1: My dad helped me with the tag line… mostly his ingenuity. He’s pretty awesome!

Q2: Do you like Keeper of the Lost Cities?

A2: I have read Keeper of the Lost Cities, like it? A whole other thing. Sure, the first couple of books were AMAZING!! But these recent few books? Bleh. IT’S ALL ABOUT ROMANCE AND FITZ IS ACTING LIKE A JERK!!! Wah.

Q3: Are you excited for Christmas?

A3: Yes! Girl, I am excited year-round! I sing Christmas carols in every season, and start making presents for people in the middle of summer. I am always excited for Christmas.

Q4:..

Sadly, that was all the questions. But never fear! I will ask myself some questions! 😉

Ze Answers!:

• In my spare time I like to do a variety of things, including cross stitch, playing my ukulele, reading, and hanging out with my friends.
• If I could change my name, I would probably choose Kayla Whittear. Don’t ask where it came from, I just think it’s cool.
• My biggest pet peeve is when someone comes into a room where the door is shut, and then leaves the room and forgets to shut the door.
• Yo soy estudio espanol. (I am studying Spanish)

Hey guys! Due to a couple of technical difficulties, I have not been able to put any new posts on my blog, which means that you have not heard from me in a while. To make up for that, You guys can ask in the comments questions about what I’ve been doing, along with ideas about what you want me to post about next (which would be really helpful actually).

Anyway, let the questioning begin!

You know you’re at JAARS when you see the old familiar speed “hump”

Right now we are staying at JAARS! For those of you who don’t know what that is, I don’t know what the acronym stands for, but I know that it’s some sort of Aviation place, that also hosts a training for missionaries, including one called ICC. Last year we came here for ICC, but now we are just hanging out here waiting for the Solomon Islands borders to open up again.

Waiting here is kind of what got me thinking about “speed humps.” Sometimes it’s hard to just sit here waiting until we can go. It feels like we have hit a speed “hump” and we aren’t going anywhere, anytime soon! But through this all, God still has a plan, he always has a plan!

“But they who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint.”
‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭40:31‬ ‭ESV‬‬

Renew our strength! Yes! That is what God has planned for us! He will renew us in his timing and when he does, we’ll be revving to go!

One other thing, I once heard a sermon about this kind of topic. And at one point the pastor said “for every sticking point, God gives you a stick!” How fun is that? God gives the tools we need to do whatever his will requires of us, and sometimes he just requires us. Sometimes he just wants us to be with him. And sometimes, the speed humps can be quite restful, if you just stop trying to jump those humps!

“Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you, casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you.”
‭‭1 Peter‬ ‭5:6-7‬ ‭ESV

My lil bro Andrew is a goofball and he loves to do those little chin people things, and so, without further ado, the baby chin shark!

I don’t know how many of you know this, but my family has been preparing to go overseas with Wycliffe Bible Translators to the Solomon Islands. Wycliffe requires us to find enough financial partners to meet a ministry budget they deem necessary. As of yesterday, after 20 months, we are now 100% funded!!!!!

How exciting!! God has been so very faithful to us! He is so good! We are all very excited to be heading to North Carolina for some training. Praise God!

You know you have the world’s funniest brother when you hear this playacting from the other room where he is providing creative content for your two younger siblings

[Singing poorly and in a high pitch] “Somebody make me feel alive and shatter me!”

[In a lower, somber, and authoritative tone] “Sir, you are under arrest for singing 5 octaves too high.”

If this made you smile today comment #somesunshineforyourday

You’re welcome 😉😂

Alright! Here is our first recording. Sorry it took so long. I had to make it extra hard. 🙂 Just kidding. 😉

Okay, here is how this is going to work. I will record myself playing a song on my ukulele, and then post it on this blog with the hashtag #musicmonday. It will be your job to guess in the comments what song it is. Don’t worry, these will be common songs.

Rules:

1. No looking the song up or getting Siri to try to guess.
2. Be a good sport if someone guesses it before you do. 🙂
3. Enjoy!!

Of course these will only be on Mondays, hence the hashtag. 🙂
