1 Down

Well, Craig and I are about to wrap up impro week.  This past nine days we both spent over 100 hrs sewing.  So (no pun intended) if anyone needs a a couple shirts fixed or a new purse just give us a call.  It feels good to have started team.  It is nice to actually be making progress after months of waiting.  Craig and i both finished our assignments yesterday so we were able to go to Church today.  It was very refreshing to have that fellowship again.  We've praying alot through team and I am sure that those prayers will continue.  We are both trying to focus on relying on God's strength to make it through this.  We are leaving for FAM on Wed.  We have Tues off to recoup and get our things together.  I am excited it will be a very good time.  We are drinking through a fire hose when it comes to the learning curve but we are both seeing progress in our knowledge already.  Keep up the prayers and we will have photos of FAM when we get back.  Love everyone

Home



Just got back from a great trip home with the family.  It was really refreshing to get the fellowship of family and friends. Most of the time at home was spent resting.  I met "Brody" my sister's new dog.  He is a typical hyperactive dog.  Craig, Andrew, and I were able to get in some rucking on the winter Chicago's winter weather.  The last day home Wes and the brothers went to St. Charles to smoke a couple great cigars and enjoy relaxing conversation.  The picture is taken at the fox river.  Craig and I are now back in Spokane getting ready for team.  I would have never guessed that last year at this time that Craig and i would both be up in Spokane going through team at the same time.  It is amazing how God orchestrated this.  I moved my things up into Craig's room so we are now roomates, and even though we joke around and get on eachother's nerves sometimes I am really enjoying rooming with him.  He keeps me accountable and I really value that. Anywho, it late and I have to get to bed.
ciao.
