Almost Spring Break

These last few days before the girls leave for Spring Break has been like running a marathon. Monday I was able to take a little break though and have a field trip with other RA's at BFA's Elementary school - Sitzenkirch - we had never been shown it before. It was fun playing tetherball and jump roping. Some of us enjoyed some ice cream at the EisCafe to celebrate the springlike weather. Tuesday hit and it was meetings and dorm clean. As a reward for a good dorm clean, we took the girls to Basel to the Starbucks there - it was good fun. Yesterday began the departures - I have already done 2 airport runs - 1 to pick up people from the conference that BFA is hosting this next week and I brought one of my girls to the airport at night. Now all the girls are gone except for a few. Though the girls leave, we as a staff won't fully have a break until next Wednesday - we are required to help drive people back and forth, do airport runs and help in the kitchen for the conference. Pray for us as we try to find the strength to make it until next Wednesday. It can be frustrating to be in need of a break, but to still have stuff to do. It will be an interesting experience, because people are coming from all over the world - just knowing how much energy we will have is the question. I am still recovering from being sick - still a little congested, so please pray for my healing soon. I am looking forward to having friends coming to visit this weekend and next - it will be good to see people outside of BFA. It is hard to believe that only 7 weeks of school will be left when Spring Break is over! It is flying by! So much is happening in this life of mine - I can only take it one day at a time with God's help. Anyway, that is a little synopsis on life here right now. Here are some pictures of the past few days:
