Quick little update

So, life hasn't changed much since I last blogged. Kevin and Rachel still haven't had their baby, hence the ticker that hasn't been removed. I'm getting very anxious already, all I hope is that the baby is born before we go to Saskatoon this coming weekend.
Skating is going good, starting next week, skating is going to be more frequent, so I'll be a little busier than right now, but I'm really looking forward to it. Syncro is going so good, the atmosphere is almost relaxing. It is really hard, getting everything and everybody in sync with each other but once you get it is so gratifying.
I'm still job hunting, getting a little discouraged, but I just need to trust that God will send me where I'm supposed to go, and that I will listen to him.
In other news, I took the cutest pictures of my neighbors; Josiah, Logan and Naomi on Friday night, but I didn't take them with a digital camera so I can't post them on here. Hopefully soon I will buy a digital camera. I have picked out which one I want, its a Canon, so I'm saving my pennies so that I can buy it.
I'll try and blog more frequently this week, its just hard because sometimes life isn't very interesting around here.
Anyways, I'm off to church, hope you are having an awesome weekend.
I'll see ya when I see ya.
God Bless

On the Fence

I had been pondering which club I should register with the last few days and just couldn't make up my mind. I really enjoy skating in Morden because of the atmosphere and the people. But I really felt a little obligated to register in Winkler because its where I had started skating and I knew everybody and it is such a nice tight group but I really didn't have many good memories there because of last season. I felt like I needed a fresh start, but I didn't want to hurt the people in morden that have become my some of my best friends these last few years. I knew I would be skating in both places anyways but it was still a big decision I really didn't want to have to make. I didn't want to hurt anybodys feelings but I wasn't really thinking about what was best for me. So, I tried to make a list of the pros and cons considering costs and everything, and I really was going to miss our carnival, but I thought if that is the only reason for me to register in Winkler that was really really selfish. So, I just hope that I don't hurt anybody by my decision because that is not my intention, but I decided to register in Morden. Please pray that this season goes well and I hope that your day is going super duper!
God Bless

GOOD NEWS

So, as most of you know, I had a rough skating season last year, and wasn't sure how this season would be either because I didn't have a coach. Well, I have at least one definate coach this year which is a HUGE relief, everything seems to be coming together. You may have noticed I said at least, thats right, I have another coach who at this point will coach me as well, as well as one in Winkler if nothing else changes. I also have my syncro coach Pam who will give me lessons whenever she has time. This has been a huge weight on my shoulders this spring and summer and to finally have some direction is an enormous blessing. I am extremely happy and just hope i don't wear myself out this winter by skating so much more than I did last year, but I think it will be a great experience and a lot of hard work, but I am definately up to the challenge. I hope you are have an amazing day and God Bless.

A Fresh Start

I can't believe how fast summer has gone, and even this whole year so far. Skating has started and I had my first Syncronized Skating practice on Sunday. Pam, the syncro coach, has been nagging me for years to join, and so I finally gave in this year. It was so cool, I had so much fun, the atmosphere is super relaxed. In February, we are going to Camrose, Alberta for a syncro competition, which is going to be so much fun, I'm super pumped. In other skating news I think I have found a coach, possibly 2. This is a huge blessing for me, because of my season last year. I am super excited to start fresh this year, which includes two new programs which I want to choreograph myself, it is something I really enjoy about the sport, and I've really got nothing to lose.
I am still searching for a job, if anybody knows of anything please let me know, even if I don't know you, and you look at my blog, I'm open to suggestions.
I found out yesterday that I might be an auntie sooner than I think, which is causing me to be very antsy last night and today. My sister-in-law Rachel, told me that she might be two weeks further along than she thought which would make the baby due on Thursday, which is so exciting, I can't wait to be an auntie, and twice yet, I just can't wait.
Other than skating taking up all my time, I have been asked to babysit every other tuesday starting in October, which I am also excited about.
Also, I just finished my CanSkate assignment, so I am planning to get that in the mail this week yet. It seems that so much is happening, and so far it is all good, so I am very thankful for everything.
