Its Beginning to Look a lot Like Christmas

Ok, so not really. It has rained everyday for the past two weeks and I have yet to see any Christmas decorations or anything that even resembles snow. But too me the season has arrived. I have already had the Christmas music* out for a week and we are less than two months away.

More than looking forward to Christmas day, I am looking forward to the Christmas season. I can't wait for snow. I can't wait for lights, I can't wait for Christmas carols on the radio and I can't wait for egg nog! I absolutely love the season and I get into it early.

I am really hoping it will be a time to relax a little. School has really stressed me out this year and I think I am just now getting in the "zone" which is late but better late than never. This coming Christmas does present some questions for me and some potentially stressful situations but I am praying that the relaxation and joy of the season will wash those away.

This should be a season of joy. After all it is when we take time to celebrate that God loved us so much that he sent his Son to the earth to save us from ourselves. What a great reason for joy. I hope you have a wonderful holiday season filled with family and turkey and let me be the first to wish you a Merry Christmas!

My Brain

Well well well. Have you ever wondered what my brain looks like? Or have you ever been so mad at me you wanted to find out? I hope the latter isn't true but if you want to know, here it is!

This is the organized part of my brain which believe me is non-existent in my head. If you have organizational problems like myself then this my friend is the answer! My palm keeps my calendar, agenda, to-do list, contact addresses, phone numbers, emails and all of that fun stuff.

See I had to get a new one* recently because I am an idiot and broke mine by falling on it while trying to catch a foot ball. I thought I could go a while without it but after never knowing anything and forgetting about a test (that I failed because I forgot!) I decided to get one again... no regrets!

Well that was kind of boring but maybe Palm.com will read this and pay me for endorsements... and maybe not.

* The new one is a PalmOne Tungsten E2 - I love it!

The Biggest Family in the World

So many of my blogs end up being about how slack I have been with blogging so I am not even going to draw attention to that in this one because we both know I'm slack...
(actual post)
A lot of people say that they have the biggest family in the world. Especially after they get married as they take on an entire second set of relatives. This can be a substantial addition as I am learning while Janelle and I make the invitation list for our wedding! When most people say that they have the biggest family in the world however, they are mistaken... they don't. I do.

Now wait a minute you say, you haven't met MY family! And you are probably right, I haven't. Unless this is you Mom in which case I have but when I say I have the biggest family in the world I am not talking about my relatives. I am talking about my brothers and sisters in Christ.


In the summer I attended Worship East 2005 (as you know if you read this thing!) and while we were there they told us to go find someone we didn't know and talk to them. So I did, that is no problem for me. I met this guy named Adam who is from PEI but goes to school in NB. I found this interesting because I am from NB and go to school in PEI. We had a great chat and parted ways. A month later I found myself at a Three Season Ant concert in Charlottetown and this guy was there, spotted me and come to chat with me again and I ended up seeing him again at Dariy Queen. It was so encouraging to talk with him about the Lord and worship and other things and I thank God that I have family like this all over the world. People who I don't know but share the most important bond that anyone can have.

In closing I just want to say:
I'm S'glad I'm a part of the family of God!
