Life Update

Whew, clearly I have not done well with keeping up with this thing. Life is crazy busy, pretty much all the time. Especially this past summer, we were so fortunate to lead another ETEAM this past summer, to Chicago. We had an amazing time, we had twelve students and were able to do and see a lot. We handed out over 15,000 flyers to over 9,000 houses, we also got to help with the churches Veggie-Tales Adventures, its like VBS but different at the same time, we were also able to help some local teachers get their rooms set up for the summer and serve them lunch, and we knocked out the ceiling of basement. We also got to do a lot of sight seeing and getting to know some of the local people.

When we got back from ETEAM three days later left with our church youth group to Arlington, TX for our mission trip there. We had a great trip there, we led a couple of day VBS's for a couple of apartment complexes. We loved getting to bond with the youth group!

Since then we have been working and starting back to school. I have been sewing a lot lately, making some burp cloths and rice packs, and in the weeks to come I have some more burp cloths, blankets, and taggy blankets to make. I so enjoy making things for new mommies to use with their new babies. I'm going to post a few pictures of what I've been up to these past few weeks.

Last week Matt and I started school....again. Hopefully this will be my last fall semester, I think I should be done in May. I meet with my advisor on Friday and I'm going to talk with him about it then. Matt has been working so hard, I'm so proud of him for going back and getting the classes he needs for International Missions.

I am going to try to be better at staying caught up on here, but I say that all the time, so we shall see.
