Snow!

I mentioned in my post on Wednesday how it had been snowing just a bit. Well, Thursday night, it snowed pretty much nonstop from about 4:00 p.m. to sometime between 10:00p.m. and 12:00p.m. The next morning, I woke up to a winter wonderland. The only weird thing was, it's not supposed to be Winter! It's April!

We're moved!

Well, sort of. There is still a ton of stuff in the garage that has not yet been unpacked. We still have a lot to do. Whew! :)

I'm loving living in our new house. It's cozy, although small, and there are a couple of exciting features about it. Here are a few of those: 1) We have a fireplace! Yahoo! 2) We have a mailbox. Don't laugh at me. I've never had one before, and I'm absolutely loving it. 3) We have a doorbell. Again, please don't laugh. This is another one of those things I've never had before, and I'm so excited about it! 4) My bedroom is nice and big. Another luxury I've never experienced before.

There are also a couple drawbacks about our new house. They are: 1) We have no dishwasher. 2) Our living room, dining area, and kitchen area are very small.

Overall, though, I love the house. It's just lovely. Right now, it is very cold outside and snowing. It's been raining and snowing off and on pretty much all day long. But I am not cold. I am sitting in a chair in front of the computer right next to the fireplace in the living room watching the snow fall gently down outside. Aaaaaahhhhhh............ This is a beautiful place to live.

We do not have any decorations up at all in the house, but when I get them up in my room, I will post pictures.

Well, I think that is all I have to say right now. God bless you on this beautiful day!

Tracting at the Parade

Last Saturday, we got a chance to evangelize at the parade in our town. This parade is held annually, and we tracted it last year. This year we decided to do it again!

The group that went with us was my brother's and my Student Council group, S.A.L.T. (Servants and Leaders in Truth). In all, there were nine of us kids, and three adults. We split up into groups and were able to tract the whole crowd that was waiting for the parade to start!

It went really well. Most people were more than glad to receive the million dollar bills we were giving them, and one kid even chased me down the street to ask for more for his friends. Last year, God had provided about 2 dozen or so cases of Gatorade, and we handed those out with the tracts. I thought that it was going to be harder this time, but I actually think it ended up being easier, and we were able to give out a lot more tracts.

I was glad for this opportunity, because we haven't gone to any events to evangelize in a while. It was a blessing to me, and I pray that God blessed our efforts, and softened the hearts of the people who received the tracts.

In Christ,
