Happenings

A lot has happened since I blogged last! I was surfing the internet today and I realized that I've totally forgotten about my blog in the last week. Funny. But now that I remember about it, I'll share with you what has happened.

For one, my parents left for India on Thursday. They will be gone 2 weeks on a little missions trip, and they're having a good time so far. My sister's next-door-neighbor has a little black lab mix puppy (she's about 9 months old) that they need to give away. So my parents decided that they want her, but while they're in India Andy and I get to puppy sit. We're picking her up tomorrow, so Jeffrey will have a sister for a while! He has no idea what he's in for. He usually doesn't care too much about girl dogs, but hopefully he'll be good friends with this one.

Andy and I are taking a group of our high schoolers to Mexico this summer, and we just met with our missions committee today. They're giving us money for the trip, so that is exciting. I think the group dynamics are going to be good, and it'll be a great trip. I like all of the kids going.

I've been eating my daily green smoothie and trying to eat mostly raw. Sometimes it's hard when I'm away somewhere, and sometimes I just want cooked food. But on the whole, I'm eating about 60-70% raw, which is right at my goal for now.

I think that's it with the new stuff I can think of. I'm sure there's tons more. My life sounds really boring from this blog, but I assure you, it's not. Most of my time is occupied by helping my dear husband with his mostly rewarding, sometimes stressful job (or is it the other way around?). The other hours I'm either working, going to meetings, and hanging out with girls. This makes up about a 50-hour/week or more job. Yay! The joys of being an underpaid youth pastor's wife!

We are underpaid! I think we should start a union and go on strike :-) Just kidding, I love what I do, it can just be tiring some times!
