A Busy Month

You may have noticed that I haven't been blogging as much over the last few weeks, and well the main reason is that things have just been really busy for me at the moment.
There have been lots of things happening with our Kenya trip. Getting things organised. We had a bonding weekend away 2 weeks ago, which was a great time to get to know each other better. We had some news last week that our accomodation for our second week had fallen through, but I found out today that 2 places have been found for us, so now we have a choice. Praise the Lord that he has solved this dilemma for us. And I know that He will keep looking out for us through the remainder of the planning and during the trip itself.
Things have been really hectic at work, and I really feel it is time to move on, so I am looking into possible studying next year. I'm interested in maybe studying teaching or childcare, but I really need to make up my mind soon about that.
I am now a part of three bible studies, and am really enjoying the different fellowshipping I am getting from each of these.
And spending more times with friends. Especially loving catching up with Melinda, Jenny & Ruth, and love scrapping each fortnight with Mum, Jess & Esther. In fact Jess & Esther came over today & we all had such a great time. I spent the day making tins! Yep, that's right, TINS! I am branching out & trying some off the page work & really enjoyed it.
So yeah, these are a lot of the things that have been keeping me busy lately. Feeling a bit overwhelmed at times, but really enjoying being more involved in different things.

Kenya Weekend

Ok, so I didn't actually go to Kenya for the weekend! It was actually a weekend at Waterslea, a local Christian campsite (where we went for the Scrapping With Soul Retreat) for the team going to Kenya next January. It was a weekend for bonding & organising. We got lots of things sorted out & did lots of bonding, so yeah it was a good weekend.
Though it didn't get off to such a great start. My car got bogged & then broke down as I was driving down Kollona Drive toward the campsite. It is a fairly hilly/ rocky road, so breaking down there when it is dark & raining was not much fun at all. But a bunch of the guys came to my rescue. Definitely an interesting way to commence the bonding weekend! But after that, things ran smoothly & it was a great weekend.
Getting excited, coz in 4 months time we will be over in Kenya. It's gonna be such a great experience, I am so looking forward to it!
