Family

our florida family arrived safe and sound yesterday. My cousin immediatly started setting up her new room and took her new car for a test drive, not a new car but new to her, it's my grandma's old car..... it runs so shes not complaining. I'm so happy to have them here! Tomorrow we are going to the valley for the day, my other cousin just graduated high school! YAY so my mom rented a 15 person van to get us all over there in one car, so that will definitly be fun! Hurray for the weekend! Ok I'm going to start listing prayer requests and praises at the end of my posts. Feel free to email me or comment your praises and prayer requests. I'm not super good about praying consistantly but I'm working on it and I like praying for others better than praying for myself. I have really enjoyed taking prayer requests at bible study, anyways gotta get back to work, not the weekend yet :/



Prayer Requests
Praise: Family made it safe and sound! Cousin Kody graduates! I have a wonderful family and an AMAZING husband!
Keep Tommy in your prayers he is preaching at big church the second and third weekend next month and pray for my cousin Dora as she settles into her new home here and starts making new friends and getting involved.

Fun if your bored

Found a fun webpage where you put in your name. The first part didnt fit me well but the second half was dead on. Kinda fun, check it out if your bored http://www.paulsadowski.com/Numbers.asp

A Soul Urge number of 7 means: With a number 7 Soul Urge you are very fond of reading, and retreating to periods of being alone and away from the disruptions of the outer world. You like to dream and develop you idealistic understandings, to study and analyze, to gain knowledge and wisdom. You may be too laid back and withdrawn to really succeed in the business world, and you will be much more comfortable in circumstances that are tolerant of your reserve, your analytical approach, and your desire to use your mind rather than your physical being.
You are very timid around people that you don't know very well, so much so at times that casual conversation and social situations can be strained. You tend to repress your emotions to the extend that some people have a good bit of difficult understanding you. You tend to be very selective with friends and you don't easily adapt to new environments or to new people very quickly.
The negative traits of the 7 include becoming too much the introvert and isolated from others.
An Inner Dream number of 6 means: You dream of guiding and fostering the perfect family in the perfect home. You crave the devotion from offspring and a loving spouse. You picture yourself in the center of a successful domestic unit.

Chris Simning

Tom and I got to go on a college retreat at Mount Herman and listen to a speaker named Chris Simning (check out link below). Such an amazing guy, he was just so honest and real and has a great sense of humor. It was cool getting to hear him speak.

So I helped start a new bible study that meets at my house every tuesday, we have only had 2 meetings but it's been really great. We do an appetizer, salad and dessert and then study the book of Daniel. It's a massive group of.... 3 lol. But it's all good, I think we have one or two new people this week. It's neat to be small though you feel like everyone is more comfortable to really talk.

Oh and please keep my cousin in your thoughts and prayers, I think I mentioned in an earlier post that she was pregnant, she lost the baby a few weeks ago. I couldnt even imagine what she is going through. My mom who endured miscarriages said the hardest thing was that noone understood that for you it was a baby. And not just a baby but a perfect baby, one who had never messed up or done wrong. In the movie Juno one of the characters say "A woman becomes a mother when she becomes pregnant, a man becomes a father when he holds his child the first time." So just keep her in your mind and she mourns the loss of her child. Thank you
