Hello Again

I know I say this quite often, but I am going to re-attempt to blog regularily (I have nothing better to do during the day right now). There is so much going on in my life right now, yet I feel so bored during the days. Bored...now there is a emotion that I forgot how it felt. I don't know if I have really been this bored since before starting college nearly 2 years ago.

To answer the question that everyone asks me...the wedding plans are going well. We have our first meeting with our Pastor in a few weeks and than I think we are starting marriage counselling in May. I am really looking forwards to both of these, as I think that they will both strengthen our relationship.



I think that right now we are at the detail planning stage. I have my dress already (I love it!) and than I have 2 out of 3 of the bridesmaid dresses on the go. We have the site booked, the hall booked, invitations out (for the most part), Colors picked... Right now we are in search of a sound system, deciding on who/how we are doing special music and what songs to do and so forth. It's a lot of planning all of this!

This past weekend was a huge adventure for me. I had the privilege (and yes I say privilege and not burden! ) of taking care of my respite girl for more than just 2 hours a day...From Friday morning 8:15- till Mondoay night at 11! We had a blast (for the most part). On Saturday, Cory and I took her to the Zoo and she (and we) had a blast! Some of my favorite Pictures...



Rebekah loved the Zebra's! It was cool ot get a picture of her standing with them like this! She smiled so much during our Zoo trip (and slept on the way home lol)



Me and Rebekah with a polar bear



My Incredible Handsome man who means the world to me!



Cory and I at lunch...we decided that we are going to go to the zoo way way more often. It was great



Rebekah in front of some animals! She loved all the different animals and for the most part loved when they came close!!


Anyways, I need to head to work and than have college and Careers tonite (Woot Woot). My life is good and so is God!

Holding on to Him,

Mark today on your calander people. I handed in my last assignment a day early!!! I AM DONE HOMEWORK!!! Unless you have ever done college... you have no clue how exciting this is. Today has been an interesting day.
 
Today in Class I found out of another wedding I am invited to this summer...That makes four weddings (one being ours and one cory is a groomsman in) in the matter of 10 days! WOW CRAZY. It is exciting to have all my friends getting married. It also gives me an excuse to go shopping for clothes (I mean wedding presents lol).
 
I also found out yesterday, that I am headed to Guyana (Next to Brazil) in 260 days! This is overwhelming and exciting! I am pumped to be heading that far away to experience cross cultural missions. I had my interview today and it was a lot of fun.
 
This afternoon, after I finished up my last assignment, I was able to get outside and just relax. It is so warm outside...after sitting there for a bit I decided I needed to do something more constructive...ROLLAR BLADING!! Wow trying to get off the mud whole...I mean school grounds and than trying to get across high way 12 was simply insane!
 
Well it has been a good day and off to COllege and Careers (woot woot) shortly!

5) I had mcnuggets, fries and Ice cream at 10:30 tonite (sinful, I know)

 

6) I miss my dog, cera, so much... even when I go home, she is just not the same dog she use to be...comes with age I suppose...I want an energetic little puppy (that is trained) again!

 

7) I love my jobs! I love working with Rebekah everyday, she always makes me smile, and I love her hugs. THe library is great...common getting paid to do homework and plan my wedding...JACKPOT

Hey EVeryone

Hey Guys,
MERRY CHRISTMAS FIRST OFF!! I hope your holiday season is going very great and you are finding time for friends and family! I know that this Christmas holiday has been amazing as I have started dating my friend, Cory! We have had a blast together and for some reason, I am dreading going back to school...I wonder why?! :P.

Holidays have actually been really good even besides that. I have spent a few nights on the ice, even though it has been freaking cold, yet a lot of fun to just get out there and skate for an hour or so. I have enjoyed being able to sleep in, and just do what I want when I want and not have to worry about deadlines! I love that. NO ASSIGNED READING!! WOOT WOOT. Though I am super pumped for my courses next semester.

Well tomorrow night, I am having a few people over for a Christmas party and hopefully a good game of Catan! or Rockband as that seems to be the thing we do almost every night this holiday season! Good times! and than Christmas Eve I am headed to Cory's parents house for supper and than church in the evening and than Cory and I are going to do our Christmas afterwards (I am guessing). I am pretty excited for the next few days. Wow I love Christmas!





God Bless you all and all the best this holiday season!!

i've got to brag!

I have some of the best friends in the world. Though I complain about them sometimes and all that it is incredible when I sit back and think about it... So tonite I hung out with Robyn, Manda, Katherine, Randy and Cory. When I think about it, the friendships I have with these people are crazy!

I have known Robyn since I was in gr. 1. She was my first and still is one of my best friends. Growing up we either hated eachothers guts or were best friends and though we don't see each or talk to eachother much...we pick up right where we left off!

Katherine and Manda both I have been hanging out with since I was in Grade 9 or so. These 2 girls rock my world. I love spending time iwth them and they both make me smile. All of Katherine's sexual comments (Where's the paddle Kat?!?!) and Manda's, I don't know...just her self! Its awesome

Than Randy, I havent hung out with him that much at school either this year, but I know that he is always there for me and would be ready to listen. But having him out tonite added a whole different but great dynamic to the group and it made us all laugh....both robyn and Cory was like he has to come out more! It was so cool. Plus I have known Randy too for about 7-8 years

Than Cory... an awesome guy I have been spending a lot of time with! I was scared that my friends might eat him alive but he fended for himself pretty nicely lol. Good times, and I think he actually likes my friends...not sure how or why but he does lol

Tonite was great! We played Rock band for a couple hours than went to Kat's and played Apples to Apples...which I usually hate but actually wanted to play it...guess it reminds me of summer and also girls dorm, which I think I am missing both of... But wow! God has blessed me richely! AMEN

I am Done

IAM DONE I AM DONE... i am done 1/2 of my college years (Scary)
