Life Update!



<------This is one of my favorite pictures of this summer. Ky had just had her wisdom teeth out and I entertained her for 2 days.

So, my parents are gone to Guatemala...actually, they're coming back tomorrow. They've been gone ten days already. They've called several times to tell me about it and it sounds like they are having an awesome time down there and doing lots of ministry. They did a mini marriage conference at a church in guatemala city and that was a huge success, so they were really excited about that. They have also been doing a ton of stuff with kids. Street ministry and soup kitchens mainly. God is really using the team's servant's hearts to change lives. I can't wait to go on another missions trip! People need to hear the truth of God's Word so desperately and they need to see his love in his people. I'm think about going to Africa next summer maybe...Lord willing. Coming with me Launa?

So it's been a lot of fun having the house to myself while mama and papa bear have been gone. Although, I have not been able to sleep here alone, so most nights I am out of the house anyway. I am housesitting/dogsitting for some people this weekend and that has been a lot of fun so far. They have a beautiful home and the dogs are really cute too. My friend Linsey(from Moncton) is here to visit this weekend so I have her for the night tonight. I can't wait to catch up with her! I think I am going to Moncton in a couple of weeks for a week. I am really excited about that too. I miss my friends a lot...especially with the realization of college coming so quickly.

That's a whole other subject. I am really excited about going to Indiana. IWU is a great school and I have been talking to some people in my class online...getting to know people. I am excited for my classes, although I am sure there will be many times I'll be hating doing the work. I haven't found out who my roomate is yet. That information along with what dorm I am in is being sent out next week. That will be really exciting information to find out.

Some of my friends(katie,Kylan,Rachel, and Monique) are leaving on Thursday. I don't know how I am going to say goodbye to them. It'll be really sad. I won't be home until Christmas and that seems like an eternity to be away from my girls. Moriah and I are here another couple of weeks after that, so we'll have each other to talk to in that time. It's all coming so fast. Where did the summer go? I definately just had the most memorable summer of my life. God has done so much in me and through me and brought me through so much. His blessing over my life has been amazing. He's such an awesome God. I'm looking forward to see how He continues to work in me and change me as I go through this major life change. It will be a time of total dependancy and trust in Him who can do immeasurably more than I could ever ask or imagine.

Where did the summer go? Good question. If you and Moriah need a good cry time, just come to our place.

Lynn, thanks for the open door to come over and cry...it may happen. I said goodbye to four of my best buds today. It was pretty sad. Growing up isn't so much fun to me right now :(
K-Dog! haha...I am coming to Moncton next week actually. I'm leaving this coming Saturday and staying until the following weekend I think! We'll have to have a visit. Oh, and I wanted to tell you that I've become addicted to Alias. I thought that might make you proud ;)
