Snow Day Go Away!

I have the snow day blues!!! AHH!!! I just want out of the house soooo bad!! Tomorrow church is cancelled and I haven't seen any other faces besides those of my family in wayyyy too long! I am totally one hundred percent NOT a home-body. I need socialization!

In my boredom(sp) I did spend some quiet time with the Lord. We are doing a Bible study at church on the book Jonah. It's a color coding Bible study which is something that I haven't done before but am enjoying it! I think I have read Jonah 1-3 about 12 times now! haha. Something I learned from the Bible study is that you can't run from God. Not that I have been doing this on purpse. I just think that so many times God has His arms out to me just wanting me to come to Him, and I just go, ya know, I got this. Which is really stupid of me, but whatever. I realized that I just need to run into His arms and just let Him take care of me. He knows what's better for my life so much more than I could ever imagine.

Also, Jonah 3:10 struck out to me which is

When God saw their deeds, that they turned away from their wicked ways, then God relented concerning the calamity which He has declared e would bring upon them. And He did not do it.

Not that I have done anything REALLY bad, on purpose or not, all sin is equal in the eyes of our Heavenly Father, and if we just turn away from our sin, HE WILL RELENT!! ugh..this makes me feel so unworthy, which we are by the way. Anywho, just a little insight to my Bible study :)

Now I am back to being BORED on this snowy yucky saturday with no hope of fellowshipping with my church family in the morning. But when 2 or more are gathered in His name, He is there. I will keep that in mind for tomorrow morning! :)

Skype

So skype is quite honestly the coolest thing EVER!! I am currently skyping with Dan, Loren, Derick, and Jordan. We have so much fun!! This will be our last skype before Jordan leaves us :(!! Skype is seriously so fun..if you don't have it, you should get it!!

Italy 2010

Well this is my farewell blog to Jordan!! I will miss you girly!! You are going to have so much fun and learn so much while you are studying abroad!! We will skype all the time!! I pray that God will be with you on your trip and keep you protected so you can come back to us in one piece!! We love you!!

Weather..

Well it's snowing/raining/freezing outside. I'm wondering if we will have school tomorrow. We already havent had school Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday. I guess we will just have to see.

I went to work today to do a little work just in case we do have school tomorrow. Now I'm watching the People's Choice Awards. Taylor Lautner was just on there, and I realize that I am a 20 year old woman, but GOLLY he is ridiculously good looking!!! Now if only I get to see Robert Pattinson that would make my night!! :)

Break

Okay so Christmas break has been super fun!! I love spending time with my family and friends!! But this is day 2 of snow days right after break. So that means that we have had 12 days off. Nice, but I am starting to want to go back to work! I miss my kiddos!!

Over break we had our Christmas at my house. It must have been a "shoe" Christmas this year because thats mostly what any of us got! I got four pair, my sister got two or three, and my gram got a pair!! BUT we did also celebrate the real reason for Christmas which is the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ. Without Him we would be nothing.

Then we had our New Years Eve Lock-In. I think I am getting to old for lock-ins. I was SOO tired the next day and am still recovering!! No, I'm just kidding, but still. We were up from 7pm-7am. It was nuts. It was all in all a good night though. Not really any drama, which is unusual for 7th graders. Most of the youth is made up of 7th graders, and a few exeptions of 11th graders.

I was also house sitting over break. I always love to house sit..it gives me the experience of living on my own, without all the expenses. Its fun! Me and Maggie (the dog) got to relax and be lazy a lot!!

January 3rd I stayed the night with the Woods and Loren. I LOVE them all so much and am so blessed to know them!! We stayed up ALL night playing wii..and from THAT I still AM recovering!! My legs are still sooo sore! Its always nice to fellowship and have fun with people you love.

So here I am, on my last day (if it doesn't snow tonigh) of our Christmas break, FINALLY blogging, winding down my wonderful break. It has been very fun and relaxing but I'm ready to go back to the real world :)
