3 weeks!

Aaron and I went to the airport one snowy night at midnight to pick up some friends, we decided to make some signs :) and embarrass them a little.

i will be home in less then 3 weeks...17 days actually. I am so looking forward to being home with the family, celebrating Christmas, sleeping in my bed, seeing friends, going to the christmas eve service..i am so excited:) This last weekend was American Thanksgiving and it was so great to celebrate and just have a time of rest before the end of quarter. I played guitar a lot which was really awesome, watched movies, went into time, read hebrews--which i am working through this week, played in the snow--so much snow, oh my word with icicles that are 4 feet long! It was a really great time to reflect on the past 2 months and what God has been teaching me and what he has been changing in me.

This week has been awesome so far. Ron Smith is speaking on Hebrews-him and his wife Judy were the ones who started up the SBS many years ago. He is so knowledgeable and really enjoyable to listen to. Yesterday my small group and i went into town to a mongolian grill for lunch, it was so good and then went to target--(target is a exciting outing in montana:). My roomate and i decorated our room--we have a little tree and wrapped our door like a present, its really cute:) Today we had another great lecture and I am just enjoying spending time outside, walking in the snow, and just taking in the beautiful creation.

Also on an exciting note i got my test scores back and i am doing really well, and i just feel like my hard work is paying off and that God is just teaching me so much. I have never been an amazing student that gets all the great grades, i have always really had to worked at it, and i just feel like my hard work is paying off--its so rewarding. God is just so good and a verses that i have been meditating on is 2 Corinthians 12:9-But he said to me, My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness. Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses so that the power of Christ may rest upon me.

hope you all have a wonderful day and i look forward to see so many of you soon--i cannot wait.
