Wedding week!

Hello, So last week I headed to San Diego to see my Dan Man! Praise the LORD. After 13 weeks apart :) now we have enjoyed this past week leading up to our wedding. God is good, he is faithful. We can trust him! 2 days and I get to be a wife forever to the most wonderful man. Thank you all for your prayers over this past summer. They mean a lot to us!

The Project: Testimony

The Alive drama team put on a great performance last night! To God be the Glory. He worked and showed up. We know that we played the background last night! God is in control. Enjoy some pics. I am looking forward to the 2nd night of the show tonight!! The basic story is about 11 high school students and how God fits into each of their lives. As one of the students really surrenders his life over to God it has an effect on those around him. Throughout the show we learn who these characters are and what their story is. Very Powerful!

p.s.

4 Days!

PPM Wedding Shower

Yesterday I got spoiled with a wedding shower from the ladies at work! We played fun games, ate good food and opened gifts! <3  I tried to remember to take some photos, enjoy!


 We made some great wedding dresses out of TP of course! Jennie has the "night club" feel and mine is very Greek goddess look ha ha we sure had fun with this :) Making clothing out of TP is always a good idea.

Today is Thursday, this means one week from today I will be at Family Day with Dan! I fly to California in 6 days! woohoo. Joy joy joy :)

Counting Down




A veiw into my day to day check off! Look how close those Xs are getting! Only 9 more days people! This pic was a few days ago so it isn't showing "current" Xs :) This is one blessed, joyful girl! God is helping all the way through, He sees us all the way through because HE is FAITHFUL :)

As you can see the Crucible is going on right now! Please be praying for Dan and his platoon!

Home from Belize

Hello all!

I am home from Belize, and to welcome me home last night was mom and sister at the air port, thick humidity, and then a late night luggage stolen from my Maple Grove front step! Yes stolen! I just spent a week in a rough part of Belize City and nothing went missing. Now I come home and set my smelly mission trip bag out on the step for the night. Why? you may ask did I set it outside??! Well lets just say I wanted to give some nice bugs that may have made that bag my home a chance to escape in the night before I found them.

Little did I know that some one in Maple Grove would want my smelly, dirty old clothes, my old sheets, air mattress and Praying Pelican Missions leader book. I am happy right now that they took the work of me needing to wash all those clothes. I am very sad about one thing that was in my bag. The pastor we parented with this past week gave PPM a gift of a wood carved map of Belize for in our office! And sadly that was the only wonderful thing in my bag that was taken :(

My bag is labeled with my name and address, and just maybe I will be returned when they find nothing worth taking.

Now for a picture story of my trip in Belize City at Lake Independence Baptist Church.
