it must have been a burglar cuz no one is claiming this one.

vegging & living on the edge....
a weekend away, with friends. i love the ring of that. relaxing, talking, sleeping, eating....yup, it was good.
not only did we do all that but somewhere in there, we found time to get out on the mountain and snowmobile.
i did it.
not only did i drive it.
i liked it.
who would've thought? you have to know that my extent of driving something other than a car would be a golf cart.
but oh the power i felt. with just the flip of the wrist, i was off and running.
i was hesitant at first but then, THEN i came to my sense's and realized that i may never get the chance again so i went.
i hate being cold. hate all the drama of bundling up layer after layer only to step outside and immediately wish i were back inside. well, not this day.
it was well worth the 20 mins. it took me to dress for the occasion.
anywho, good times.
the down side, i'm walking like i'm an old woman (please, no comment). i can hardly get my booty up off this chair. i used muscles i didn't know i had. i seriously feel like i've just spent an hour will jillian.
but, that being said, given the chance,i'd go back tomorrow....
the hub and his wife.
why yes, that is me in the blue coat. followed my SIL, cindy, who also ROCKED it.
where i spent the better half of 3 days.
some would say i'm a angel. most would say i'm not.
my 'hanging' buddys. cindy, karla and kay
God's masterpiece.
sun peaks at sunset.
our boys.

racing thoughts....
i'm sitting in a beautiful condo, 4 hours from home. friends of ours, steve and karla cowden have graciously invited us to spend the weekend with them, my SIL, cindy & hub,& the eides. the big boys are out snowmobiling and us girls are sitting on our laptops, watching the clock tick and the snow drop from the heavens. nothing to do. no place to be. it's almost like Maui. actually,not really. but it's wonderful here just the same.
and i miss my boys.
ok, so i've been absent from the blogging world. i wish i could sum up the last week but i can hardly wrap my thoughts around the amazing things that God has been revealing to me. let me give you a little wrap-up...
last week, friday-sunday, i had the opportunity to attend a woman's conference out at Semiahmoo. one of my favorite places in the northwest. we had a chance to come together, with 600 other woman from Whatcom county and have our spiritual cup FILLED. the speaker's name is Lori Salianas. i have never, in all my years met someone who knows her bible better than she does. not only does she know it, she lives it. it is her goal to have the entire new testament MEMORIZED, yes, i said MEMORIZE!! if i had the time to sit down and tell you about my weekend, i would love to. in a nutshell, as Christians need to get OFF are butts and start telling the lost souls that there is a better way to live. we can save them from an eternity from hell and instead spend eternity with Jesus. why would we not want that for everyone? and why doesn't my heart break for those who may not be there with me? and yet, so many of us (me included) are so afraid what people will think of us that we don't say anything. i feel like i've been sitting on the sidelines, waiting for this BIG spiritual transformation to happen. someday i'll be a better christian. someday when i'm older, i'll read the bible more. someday i'm going to tell strangers about Jesus just because my heart breaks for them. well, thankfully, God, in his grace opened my eyes. do i have it all figured out? obviously not but i'm here to say, i'm up for the challenge. it is my prayer that thru me and the way i live my life will be a reflection of my relationship with Jesus. that people will want to KNOW Jesus.
on a side note, this week a relationship in my life has been restored. words were spoken that honest and raw and for that i am thankful. you know who you are... and i know you're reading this so here let me say, i love who you are. i love your heart. i love that you were honest with me. i love that you wear your heart on your sleeve. i love that you are my friend. i could weep thinking of how blessed i was, not only by our converstation but also how God allowed this conversation to take place at just the right time.

i'm here...
sorry to all you faithful followers.
i've been absent.
blogger and i are having a love/hate relationship these days. ok, actually, it's all hate on my end. but since it's letting me post tonight, i'll forgive 'him'.
we are heading off to Sun Peaks with friends for the weekend. hoping we'll have Internet there. if so, i'll get caught up. otherwise, i'll 'see' you on sunday.
don't give up on me.
