Settled In

We are half way through week 2 now up at Hume. Things are beginning to seem normal and not feel so new anymore. Things have been going well. I am so excited that my family could come up here to see this place and visit me! I do wish I had more time to spend with them, though. I feel like I'm working all the time! It's ok though, this weekend will be great. They are taking me to go to Gordon and Jenny's wedding with them! I am really excited. Right now, I am about to go watch my siblings and Dad do the High Adventure Ropes course, which Ryan will probably be doing with them. Last week, Heather took all of the pantry girls to go do it because she and Courtney are certified. It was awesome. I did things I never thought I would do!

One of the cool things about working in the pantry is that Heather thinks up activities for us to do on our down time. She took us to high adventure, off-roading, we did a Bible study, and all the kitchen people played catch-phrase on Thursday. She is keeping us accountable in our spiritual lives as well. I really appreciate that.

Right now I am kind of feeling like I am seeing the same people quite a bit. There is nothing wrong with that, but I just feel like I am with the pantry girls all the time and there is not always something new to talk about. I don't know, I'm praying about it. I kind of just want to chill when I'm off work, but then there are other activities and things to go to. We'll see.

Last weekend was really fun! I hung out with Ryan for a while. I also got to hang out with Alexa and the three of us went to a skating party on Saturday. It ended up being really great. I love my roommates! They are so awesome. Anyways, I should go now, although there is more to say. In summary, I guess being with my family again is starting to make me want to be with them more. I still have the whole summer! I know God is good, and I am thankful and happy to be here. I just hope he strengthens me to continue to serve with my whole heart and not feel too homesick. I love you all and would continue to appreciate your prayers! Have a great day!
