The Last Week as I Know It


Do not be alarmed..these pics are not from Arizona, although the water and huge trees make is deceiving :)! These are from the cabin again, but I thought I would put the one of Rach and I because my shirt says "ARIZONA"!

Are you impressed Erin? You better leave a comment within two days to make this worthwhile for me! Yes I did just get back :( from spending an unbelievable week with my beautiful friend Erin (who unfortunately has started talking like an American). We had an incredible time. It was great to just be able to chat and catch up.....talk through struggles and excitements we both have in our lives. Erin is such a solid women of God and I always feel so refreshed after spending quality with her. We shopped a lot, played Yahtzee and Erin did roll three yahtzees in ONE GAME, yes I did say ONE! I am pretty sure that that is a world record and I was so proud of her! Ryan could hear us screaming all the way from the shower. Other than that we just relaxed. It was such a blessing to be able to experience Erin and Ryan's life out there. The two of them together make an amazing pair. I am so honored and blessed to know them, and I am so thankful that God provided the means and the opportunity for me to go for a visit. We pray it won't be another three months before the next. Now it is back to reality....no more vacationing. My desk was piled miles high...but well worth it! All our condo stuff is still up in the air and as of now we do not have a place to live after we move out of our place right now. Please pray for us as we continue to seek God's will for our lives.

Today As We Know It


Joel and Cass (Life As We Know It)

Ok, just for my special friend Erin, I will give a quick update! I didn't actually think people would be linking to us and be expecting regular updates, but apparently that was a misconception! I am heading out to ARIZONA on Thursday. I am so excited I can hardly sleep at night! It has been over three months since I last saw my friend Erin and some quality girl time is LONG over due! Unfortunately Joel can't accompany me on the trip, someone has to stay home and make money! Life is too expensive! We just bought a new apartment! We are SO excited! It is exactly what both Joel and I wanted! We have upsized quite a bit and we are on the top floor, corner unit! We ended up just staying in Abbotsford. With both of our busy lives (well, lets be honest, my busy life), we needed to be in Abbotsford! We are planning on moving on October 14! Very soon! We have started packing slowly! I am coaching basketball every night of the week, so we are trying to stay on top of things! Joel is still passionate about concrete countertops. I love seeing him excited to get up at 6 am and go to work! He is so giddy in the mornings! It is such a blessing! God is always so faithful! I am absolutely LOVING coaching basketball! I know with this team is where God wants me! I just love being able to encourage, support and love these girls during such a fragile time in their lives. So many of them are in the process of making life changing decisions, and to just pray with them and encourage them is such a blessing! I find so much peace and satisfaction with where I am at! I hope everyone is doing well! I promise to try and get better at this (ok, Erin?). I will try and be a little more regular! I love you ALL!
