2 weeks left!!!!

Horray, horray!!!!! In 2 weeks I will officially be done my first year of my Bachelor of Education. It has been a great year and I have enjoyed the opportunity that I have to go for this degree, but I must admit that this year has been BORING. I have felt zero challenge and really I'm not sure if I have learned a whole lot. But that said, I am still excited that God has given me the OK to go forward with this and pursue my dream.

And on a side note not related to school at all, I had the opportunity over Easter weekend to go to an Oilers game, and I had a BLAST. My brother and me drove down to Edmonton on Saturday morning, went to the game in the afternoon, and drove back home that night. It made for a long day, but the game was probably the best game I've even been too and it was good to have the brother/sister time driving there and back.

And now I have to go teach piano, but I do want to say Happy Spring!!!!!

Spring in the North





So for the last couple of weeks the weather has been AMAZING!!!!! I have been able to drive with my window open, not wear a coat, and it's just been wonderful. The snow was melting, daytime highs were well above zero and it really felt like spring. Unfortunately, seeing as I live in the north, reality has a way of catching up with things. Today it's snowing, has a slight wind chill and the high is -10. The joys of living in the north. The pictures are of my backyard during the brief spring like weather. I love my creek!!!!

God is so very very good

So, without to much detail, I just wanted to give public (as public as this is for people who actually read it) acknowledgement to my God for His encouragment today. I was feeling down this morning and unsure of a lot of things, but I really had a wonderful afternoon. God released me from a couple of ties that I had and I really felt that God granted me a ton of freedom this afternoon. So that's the short of it. God, in His perfect timing knows what we need and when we need it. Thanks be to Him!!!!!
