It's already May!

Yesterday, Justin finished his finals for the school year!! He has successfully completed his first year at Seminary!! Yay!! Pray for him as he leaves for Canada tomorrow. He will be there until next Thursday on an Evangelism Practicum. He will be taking a class and evangelizing in the city of Vancouver. As alot of you know, Cananda is not an easy place to share the gospel so pray that the people will have open hearts for the message of Jesus Christ and also pray that he will have a safe trip! As for me, I finished my first school year as World Missions Center Coordinator and wow has it been a year!! Learning my job has been an experience. Summer is quiet around here, so I'm told, so I am excited to use this time to set up events and mission trips for next year. My sister is coming into town tomorrow (I'm dropping Justin off in Terminal D then picking her up in Terminal E) and I am excited to have some "girl time" this weekend. We are going to Six Flags and other various places and I am sure I'll add some pictures when it is all said and done!! Well, that's all for now!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY THOMAS!! Hope you have a great day!!

Ski Trip!

Wow, What a great vacation we had in Idaho! Last week, we headed to Mccall Idaho on a Ski trip with my family. We had a great time. We skied 5 out of the 7 days we were there. In past years, I have had a hard time with skiing, because of my whole heights issue, but I am proud to annouce that I concured those Blues this year! Justin did well, like I thought he would. It was a great spending time with my family. We laughed and caught up with our lives and just had a fun time together. One of my favorite things we did was sit in a hot tub in the snow. You've got to experience that at least once if you never have. It is just fantastic!

Aw, Valentines Day.

We've been busy the past few weeks. Justin is staying extra busy this semester with his classes and all the reading he has to do. Me, on the other hand just had the busiest week of my working career. There's an event at SWBTS that happens every three years called "Global Missions Week." It a HUGE event where the International Missions Board comes on campus, bringing Missionaries from every region to promote International Missions. And being the World Missions Coordinator, you can only imagine how much I was involved in this event! As much work as it was, it was an amazing week! It was so great getting to meet the Missionaries (who, by the way are the nicest people on the planet) and talking with them about their lives. We also had so many students commit to Missions in several ways, whether it would be short-term experience, prayer or even long term decisions to become career missionaries, it was amazing to see what God did on campus that week. We slowed down a little on Valentines day. Justin had class the evening of Valentines day so we went out the night before. We went to Razoos for dinner (gotta love cajun food) and had a great night. It was great to sit down and just relax together. Justin surprised me for Valentines Day. I really needed a new pair of running shoes and for my VDay gift he took me shopping to pick out any shoes I wanted! It was such a blessing because I have had the bottoms of my running shoes falling off for at least six months. Valentines night I made dessert for Justin and I while he was in class for a little surprise and we spent the rest of the night enjoying each others company and eating fruit and chocolate. yum. Well, that's all for now. Hope you all had a wonderful Valentines Day! ~Amy
