Apple Girl




So if you follow my sister Tara's Blog, then this is a re-run....but isn't she just the cutest! Last week Tara and I took Jackie to go apple picking and she loved it! She loves apples! We went to Cranes (not the big one, the smaller farm across the street) U-Pick HoneyCrisp are open there....65 cents per pound! Good Deal and they are great apples!

I have been working out at Camp Geneva this week helping them with some school groups from West Ottawa! It has been a lot of fun hanging out with the middle schoolers. I am really tired though, yesterday we were in the rain all day and but today was a beautiful day! I wouldn't be swimming but the kids loved it!

Oh yeah and I bought a car! 2004 Subaru Impreza Wagon! Can't wait to get it!

Life Update

As I sit here this morning, I can't help but think of my Grandma Jackie! For many reasons, first the sun is out and I think she would have been enjoying this great weather that we have had. I KNOW she would be THRILLED with the Tigers right now! Let's keep it going boys! And, of course Halloween is coming! Miss you Gram, I am trying to teach Aunt Fran computers, but it's just not the same as you....and I don't see her going out and buying a computer or and I-Pod anytime soon!

Most of you know it's been a few weeks now since I left my position at Youth for Christ. I know that this is God's will for my life and I feel at peace about the decision. With that being said, it was a little weird to not be at the school last week. It is also very exciting to think about where God will place me in the future. I am trusting him totally with this, which is a daily thing for me, but it really has been a good experience. I was reading Isaiah last night at this stood out to me...."quietness and trust shall be your strength." I am trying to camp there right now. Thank you to all of you who have faithfully supported me the last 6 years and continue to do so.

I sold my car in August to my cousin Ross (Hope your first day went well yesterday Bud!). Since then I have been sharing with my mom. Which actually works great most of the time. I think she likes to have someone else drive her if she can. But, there are a couple leads on a car this week, so maybe I will know something soon! This is also exciting!

Well, I guess that's about all for now! Oh, if you see my Dad this week, it is his Birthday on Friday, so wish him Happy Birthday!
