Man, am I blessed. Every single weekend I get to learn to much about my God by spending time with family, friends, and Father (ha Alliteration). This weekend in particular I'm looking forward to the PBF Ladies' Retreat (Friday night through Saturday night). This will be the first year that I can actually make it to the retreat. This year, one of my long-term goals is to be more outreach minded, so the fall retreat is the perfect chance to work on this goal by getting to know the PBF ladies better. Also, I'm looking forward to hearing from some very wise & godly women (Kimiko, Bev Moore, and Amy Knoloff). Sunday is gonna be Worship in the morning, then Aaron's family reunion at Turkey Run. I'm really looking forward to it cuz i've never been to a family reunion due to our family being all over the globe. It'll be neat to see what "normal" American families do at these things...
Next weekend is Em's voice recital at BSU; can't wait!!! It's gonna be like our old college days, lol. Until next time, Kiwi

Random Kiwiness
So I should be in bed, but due to taking lots of Excedrin MIgraine today (it has caffeine) and sugar I figured it would be a good chance to blog. Since my brain is too tired to write in essay form, here's a rundown of what's going on and what I've been learning about God recently...
- Being a 2nd year teacher is way better than being a 1st year teacher (so if you're a first year teacher, there's hope!)
- I love this time of year! The weather is perfect, sunny and warm :) seriously, i love going on long walks just admiring God's creation!
- It's weird, but i've been craving Peanut Butter & raisins...two things i normally avoid.
- I'm really excited about my Monday night ladies' bible study. We're studying the book, "Women Gone Wise in a World gone Wild."
- Tomorrow (Friday) I have to take a special pill for my hyperthyroid which contains radioactive iodine (scary!), so i have to stay home all day. This means more God time and Gladiator (my favorite movie)!
- Going apple picking with our International students this weekend in Mooresville. can't wait!
- This morning as I was driving to school, I realized how thankful I am for having Lasik. Not only is my eyesight amazing now, but i save a lot of time in the mornings not putting in contacts. what a blessing!!!
- Hugs from students make my day ;)
- Turning 24 in 42 days!
- I love laying in grass and staring at the stars
- Just started reading Jeremiah
Okay, that's all for now, until later. kiwi

Labor Day :)
So, I'm really looking forward to this weekend! Here's a rundown of what's happening the next couple days..
Friday: Work, workout, teach flute lessons, PBF ReMiX :) Sisters arrive to the casa!
Saturday: Drive to Michigan City with the Fam, Meet the cousins, Aunt Carolina, Uncle Carl, and Abuelita in M.C. and go shopping/have lunch together/enjoy the beach! Drive to Bloomington (5 hours) & spend the night at Nisha's new place.
Sunday: Church of the Good Shepherd, Bloomington., lunch with Nishiki and her fiance, and play with Belle. Drive to Lafayette and hang with Aaron.
Monday: Chores around the house, practice flute, make homemade mac'n cheese, paula deen fruit salad, and berry pie. Cookout!
So that about covers it. I'm so thankful to God for being close to my sisters and getting to see my family in Michigan. My cousin Brian is *gasp* driving already! ahhhh. He's also looking to going to Purdue or Michigan State to study engineering. He's one smart cookie. Hope everyone has a blessed Labor Day. Time to go for a walk!
