A very dear, sweet friend that I was blessed to meet and spend time with for a short period is leaving for Cambodia tonight along with her husband and 3 month old baby. They will be missed! But, they go for the sake of the gospel and there is no better reason than that!!! My prayers and thoughts are with them this evening as they say good-bye to all things familiar and begin the long flight across the world.

Classes Have Begun!
Nathan began his sixth semester in seminary today. It will be a challenge, but a joy to learn and discover what the Lord has in store!
Highlights of 2009
Nathan and I celebrated our one year wedding anniversary! We are so thankful the Lord blessed us
with one another. We really love being married and are thankful for a great first year.
with one another. We really love being married and are thankful for a great first year.
In order to save some money, we moved into a studio apartment in our same complex. It challenged us to go through our worldly possessions and decide what was really necessary in order to make everything fit. Ironically, we love this apartment and it is a home we will think fondly of in years to come.
In March Nathan had his spring break and we decided it was time to get our of this crazy city! On a shoe-string budget we went to Monterey to see the sea aquarium and down to discover Santa Barbara. We know consider it a special place that we try go to as often as we can. We had a great time wandering around new cities, trying some new food and seeing some more of God's creation.
Beautiful coastline of Monterey.
Two dorks enjoying Honey! I Shrunk the Audience! at Disneyland.
Disneyland was offering free tickets on your birthday, so in May we were able to celebrate Nate's b-day at Disney! We may be getting older, but that place is still magical! Nathan was a good sport and went in the tea cups with me. :-)
And, potentially more photos to come...
Home for Christmas
Hello Again! I thought I would post some photos of our past year and our holiday break. We had a wonderful 3 weeks in Alaska and it was very hard to leave! We are now back in L.A. and Nathan started 6th semester of seminary! It's going to be a toughy, but I know the Lord will see us through it!
Christmas Eve with my family...
But, that's a little normal.
Nathan's wonderful parents...we forgot to get a real Christmas photo!!! Probably because it was Christmas morning and who wants a photo taken then? This one was from our very first night back in our beloved state, we went to a hockey game of course!
We got to meet our sweet little niece, born on December 4th.
We will miss our Alaska!
