Hello friends, I know it has been a little while since I have updated - sorry about that. Things have been rather busy here in the Black Forest as of late. We have had class parties, dorm swaps, pranks pulled, hot lunches served, various guests in the guest room and still more things yet to come. The past few days have been crazy as the sewage pipes were not working so well - they had to do some work on them. I had smelly water leaking into my closet and stuff coming into the shower - not fun. Praise the Lord it has been fixed - it was quite yucky. I have been airing my room out all day. This weekend will be busy with lots of grocery shopping, cooking, decorating and such for our open house which is coming up on Sunday. Our theme is to be an Airport - and we will have different parts of the house as continents. My area is Antarctica since it is on the outermost part of the dorm. It should be busy but a good time.
I have some pictures of the last few weeks. I hope you enjoy them.
This is my parents and sister Rebekah - she, praise the Lord, graduated from Marine Bootcamp this past Friday down in Parris Island. She is now an official Marine - Congratulations Rebekah!!We are very proud of her.
This is me and one of my girls, Torri - we went to our girls volleyball game as a dorm on Saturday - our girls won - 2 of them are on the team! Yay BFA! They won 3 out of the 5 games - so they were winners overall.
This is the Greathouse Family - Chris Greathouse (far right) is the PE teacher her, Jenny his wife is my Bible Study leader - she is very sweet. They have 5 great kids! :)
Here is me and my staff on PD day (Professional Development Day) - it was a day of meetings in the morning at a teahouse with the ResLife staff and the rest of the day just a chance to get to know each other better as a team. We went to Colmar,France and spent the afternoon/dinner together - it was really good in just having the chance to enjoy eachothers company outside of the dorm! Thanks ResLife!
I am thankful for the different times we have to rest - I went 7 days in a row last week without an official break - for those who don't know, weekends here are the craziest - we are on almost 24/7 at times - I was able to have a good day off with Jessica and her mom yesterday. I cherish those times. Thanks for all who are praying for me and keeping up with my life! You each are blessings!!
