Right now I'm looking forward to:

Time at the beach!

Target practice!

Great time with great friends!

(I really really love those two ladies!)

Getting my tan back!

And definitely insuring this beauty and taking her camping!

Wanna know what kills me about babies?

Fat legs.

When youre 25, fat legs arent fun, but when youre still wee?

Melt

my

heart.

And how do you one-up fat legs..

Put those delicious little beasts in leggings!

Just summing up what the tax man said this year to me.

Whats a missionary to do but enjoy the ride.

Its official. Im outnumbered by pregnant woman.

(Not that thats a bad thing. Although my husband is starting to get nervous about all the baby things Im bringing home.)

So whats an auntie in the making to do but go shopping?!

Here is something my sister-in-law would love:

And her husband? Well he would love these:

I wouldnt want the man to feel left out, so here is what I bought my husband:

Because people, in my house, we eat meat.

While the hubby is finishing school, we are living between two houses and two cities.

I spend 7 days with him, sleeping in and going for runs, then leave him to go "home" and spend 7 days working and without him.

Take a guess at which 7 days I prefer...

It will pass quickly, I know. Only 5 more months.

But also..

5 MORE MONTHS! Are you kidding me?!

But it really is ok (I guess....)

God has been so faithful and kind, keeping me busy and my mind off

how much I miss the man.

In other news!

We are in the midst of planning/leading a missions trip to Mexico too.

The flights have been booked and everything is a go!

We will be going down as a group of 11. While we will be building a house for a family, our focus is really to bring the love of Jesus with us. We want to impact their lives, not just with the house, but with His love and forgiveness.

I always feels so blessed to be the hands and feet that get to go and bring the love of Jesus to different nations!

What I love about being up north at Green Lake:

It is canadian winter at its best!

Snowmobiles, ATVing, ice-fishing and snowball fights.


A beautiful view every day.

And funny dogs that love to eat thrown snow.

The mister and I recieved quite the gift this week! We managed to squeeze them into our tiny flat and Im so happy we did!

I am so in love with this dresser! Its beautiful!

And item number 2? An incredible china cabinet!

And it holds our china perfectly!!

Im not sure where the cabinet is from, but we found this burned into one of the drawers:

We are very excited for our unique (and free!) furniture!
