update!!!!

So it has been a really long time since I have blogged. Life is really crazy right now. What can I say. I am not really even sure. I started full time at Portland State it is definetely and adjustment. I am sort of in a funk right now. While I know there are a lot of people who care about me I feel really alone right now. I don't know if it is being unsure about school or just life in general. I am trying ot fight the funk.

Days like today make me really miss my Dad. I have been trying to deal with all this car stuff since I got rear ended. My dad would have handle a lot of that. I took for granted all the things my dad used to take care of until he his not here. People used to say it would get easier and in some ways it has in others it is much worse. So many things lately have happenend that I know my dad would have loved to see. Some examples is that Alyssa is a Senior this year. Alyssa held a special place in my dads heart. My dad would be so proud of her. Then I look at Ammy. That little girl has dified everything the doctors thought. She is running around happy and healthy as we can all tell. My dad would be proud of all his grandkids.

Sorry I know that is probibly not the blog you wanted to read but that is where I am right now. I know that God has plans bigger than I can imagine and life will get better.

I will try to post tomorrow about Africa!!

OMSI

I have never been to OMSI. I always wanted to go to omsi but it never worked out. Brian and Michelle recieved free passes but had such a busy weekend that they couldn't go. Beth and I took the tickets and took A and C with us. I thought I would share a few photos. At the very bottom is a video of Ammy and youhave to listen to Colin's answer He sure does love his ammy.

Graduating

I got the official email a couple days ago! I have successfully recieved my associates degree!!! Yeah me. Now I wait on PSU. Hopefully I will find out soon. Now for FAFSA. When will school ever end.

update

So I know It has been a while!!! Life just seems to get busier and busier. I am still working both jobs but one is very part time now:(. I wondered what I would do with the time but have seemed to fill it up quite fast.

Im on my final term at PCC. I have applied for graduation and should find out in a couple weeks. With that I have finally taken the plunge and applied to PSU. I will also find out about being accepted in a few weeks. It seems so weird that the PCC chapter of my life is closing I have been taking classes there for so long it seems like a part of me. But I guess as one door closes another opens.

I have been enjoying spending time with my nieces and nephews. Wow they grow up fast. I can't believe the youngest one just turned 2. As I don't have kids of my own I love hanging out with these little ones and watching them grow.

Future plans: Work, Wallowa, help with VBS, Africa in 2010!!! I am really excited about the last one. I will try to post more this summer. I am also training right now with Bethany to do a 5k this summer. That should be fun.

Update

As you can see my blog is very outdated. The picture thing has not worked so well for me. A little update on my life. I am in the last term of the year. Im taking Accounting, Typing, Oregon History and Speech communication. I just celebrated little A's 6th Birthday she is so big. I have loved hanging out with my sisters and starting a little mini bible study with Michelle. We are going through the book Jesus by Beth Moore. There's not a lot else going on. My hours have gone down a little with Nanny. So bad side not making as much, good side I now have Monday and Fridays off. I am enjoying the sunshine and life in general. Miss A has an MRI coming up in June but we are hopeful and trying to take it just one day at a time. I will try to be better at bloging it just gets hard sometimes.

Behind

So I know that February is over pretty much but I will think of 28 things to post. Just guve me time. For March My idea is things that are green. It should be a tough one. Starbucks will be in there. Join me if you want. I am going to try and post one a day. Ammy is doing good her spirits are down but hopefully not for long. THANK YOU all for your prayers

February -Things I love.

I have decided that from looking at other blogs I would do a picture a day. I am not the best photographer but want to get better. So for the month of February I am focusing on love. Here are the first 4 I will try and get on to one a day soon but here it goes!

#1 This is a picture of my papa bear and a Monkey Ammy made me. When my dad passed away my sisters, my mom, and I all went and made papa bears. It helps to be a daily reminder of him. The monkey ammy made me when she was about 2 or 3. She knew I loved monkeys and wanted to make it for me.

#2 This is a picture of a rainbow I saw out my window today. I love the promises God gives us to never leave us. The rainbow was his biggest promise. With all that is changing in life. Some great some not so much the rainbow today just reminded me that he is always there.

#3 Is some books I own. I love reading. I could just curl up and read all the time. Karen Kingsbury has been a long time favorite of mine. I have read almost everyone of her books. They are the type of book that make you laugh, cry and ponder all in what little book. Jodi Picoult Is one of my new found favorites I started reading her over the summer and Love her books. Finally Beth Moore. Her books are made to inspire. I haven't read any of these books yet. So don't ruin it. I got them for my birthday and with school haven't had a chance to read them.

#4 is Starbucks. I Love my starbucks. I drink it all the time. Let's Just say the little snow storm we had in January was really hard with out my starbucks. I really should stop drinking them but they are oh so yummy. If you want something really good try and Carmel Sauce, no whip, mocha Frappachino. MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I know these are all superficial but I will do more special ones later.
