Recent Life Summary

School ended at the end of April, and I went on a road trip with 3 other girls down to the U.S. This is Rae, our packing engineer. Her skills were quite useful cramming things into the car.

We stopped at Mount Rushmore along the way. It was actually pretty chilly, and starting to rain, but it was nice to get out of the car.

I got dropped off in Iowa to visit my old stomping grounds. The cowboy hat, by the way, was my roadtrip buddy from my good friend Danielle. :)

The Hannahs let me stay with them in Kuyper, and one night we had a sleepover in the living room. They are so great. I miss them most of the time when I think about it.

The Hannahs graduated! And Abbie came, too, since she's Hannah's sister. So the four of us got to hang out all together for the first time in a year.

Then, it was time to leave Dordt. My cousin Taylor and I drove through the night to get to Ohio. We didn't make church (and the confirmation we were hoping to get to) on time, but we made it safely, which was enough.

Road trip buddies at the end of it all!

Family lunch on Mother's Day in Indiana. There's no place like home, I tell ya. I got to be there about a month, but interspersed with other trips.

Trips like going to Ohio for Taylor's wedding. They ran around and collected money as a game. They had a fun dance, and a good time was had. :)

Another wedding was in Kansas. Once again, the Hannahs, Abbie, and I united. Hannah got married, and the other three of us were bridesmaids. I couldn't have asked for better bridesmaid buddies. It was great!

Finally, my childhood friend Caleb got married in Washington just before school started. I had gone back to BC for classes and staff orientation, so I went down to WA for the weekend and hung out with Caleb's family at his wedding.

Now, I'm back at school in British Columbia. I'm taking three classes this semester and working as a teacher's assistant (TA) as well. It's quite crazy this week, so I really need to get off here and do homework, but I thought I'd send this out before it got any later. There are more things happening to talk about, and I'm behind. I'm thankful for a good break, and I'm content in school again.
