Happy New Year

2005-01-01T13:09:00.000-08:00

Another year has slipped by us. Yippy it's now 2005, but I know it will take me some time to start writing 2005. Yesterday I got back from the mission trip (which most of you reading this already know) and it was such a great time. We worked at the Miracle Ranch Orphanage painting and digging. It was soooo much fun just hanging out with the kids. They had so much love for you, I got attached to a few of them, and I can't wait to go back there. I wanted to just take them home with us, but i don't think that would work to well.
I loved being at the ocean also. We stayed in Carlsbad and had lots of adventures putting our tent up in the rain and escaping our tent at 2 in the morning in the rain, Great times. But I sure did enjoy being back at the ocean, I haven't been there in 2 years, so it was great to smell, hear, and jump in it once again. The ocean is such a powerful thing. When I go there I am reminded of how powerful God is. It's such a spiritual place for me. All in all it was a wonderful trip hanging out with awesome people and going through lots of adventures.
Well I will leave you with a Happy New Year and a verse that I recently read and enjoyed. God bless.
Therefore, since we are recieving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us be thankful, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe. Hebrews 12:28

Almost There

2004-12-16T15:40:00.000-08:00

Well only one more day left and I'm FREE! Two weeks without school, I cannot wait. I am sooooo ready for a break and not having to think. I plan on doing lots of skiing. Yippy. Man, lately school has just been so stressful for me. It doesn't help that I'm a perfectionist. But I won't have to deal with it soon. If you guys could be praying for me to not stress over things that don't need it that would be great (If that makes any sense). Well if there's anything I can be praying for you about feel free to tell me. We have almost made it through the first semester. Yeah. God Bless. Talk to yall later.

Well Hello There

2004-11-01T20:42:00.000-08:00

Hey there, I'm finally posting again. Yet again it's been a long time since my last post. Well this weekend was an AWESOME weekend. I went to San Francisco. I was only there for a total of 26 hours spread over two days, but it seems like I did a million things. I'd have to say the best thing was going to see the play The Lion King. It was incredible! the costumes were really cool and the music was "live", they had the orchestra down in the "pit". I've always loved the movie the Lion King, it was probably my favorite when i was a kid, and it was great cause I actually got to see the play.
Another cool thing was going on a tour of Alcatraz. We took a ferry over to the island and it was really pretty (the weather was wonderful and warm, yippy) On the island they told us some history about it and then we went on a tour of Alcatraz the Maximum security prison. It was interesting, i learned quite a bit. It was weird cause i was thinking men have actually lived in these cells, the same cells i was walking into. Man that must of been a horrible thing. I would have gone insane if I was one of them, which many of the men did. What an experience that was.
Those were the main two exciting things about my weekend but there were other little things such as the interesting people that you see riding the buses. It was fun to people watch and somewhat scary. There was the huge fight that broke out across the street from our hotel minutes after we had crossed the street and were going into our hotel. And the people were really into dressing up early for halloween, there were some interesting costumes that people were wearing. I did and saw many things yet I barely saw any of san Francisco, there's still much more I can't wait to go back and discover.
I'll leave you with this verse:
Trust in the lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.

-proverbs 3:5-6

If I can be praying for you, let me know. Could you be praying that God will just give me strength with different things that are happening in my life. It would be great if we were all still praying for Erin and her family also, please. God bless.

Love in him,

Heather

My, How Time Flies!

2004-09-21T21:30:00.000-07:00

Where does time go? It's there one second, and then it's gone. Why can't there be more minutes in a day? It would be great, but i geuss it just doesn't work out that way. Lately time is just flyin by me. Life his been busy with many different things.
I think I'm finally starting to get in school mode. I'm finally starting to get used to the routine of things. Mybe this year won't be so bad in the school area.
Wow the moon is very pretty tonight. I am looking at it through the window. It's such a mysterious thing. As I look at it, it reminds me that God is up there watching over everything. Well, i'm just having random thoughts at the moment and writing them down.
So if there is anything I can be praying for you about just give me a hollar. I will talk to everyone later. Peace in Him.

God Bless,
Heather

Hallo! Wie gehts?

2004-09-08T21:08:00.000-07:00

Hey there everyone,
Wow I haven't posted in quite a while I geuss. Well there's nothing all to exciting to write about at the moment. I've been going to school and what great fun that is! What could be more fun than school (not). I'm really not into the whole school mode yet, not used to getting homework and actually having to do it. I geuss I just need to buckle in and get used to it cause I have a whole school year ahead of me.
I'm excited about this bible study that started last Friday. I hope we keep on doing it. It's great being able to hang out and read the bible with my homees (lol).
Well if there is any praying that I can do for you just let me know and I'll be on it. As for me I just need prayer that God will use me in amaizing ways, and that I can show my friends what a great life being a christian is.
Well I am signing off now. Peace out. I will leave you with this lovely saying:

"If God brings you to it, he'll bring you through it!"

God Bless,
Heather

HI

2004-08-24T23:37:00.000-07:00

Today was pretty fun. I got to go play with babies all day. I went over to Mark's house with Maggie, Ryan, and Alex. Mags and i got to watch all the wee ones. At one point Mark left and Cardiff just had a crying fit, it was horrible, i didn't know what to do. But we got it all under control eventually.
Well I finally sort of started my summer homework. I took some notes, it was very productive. I really should just sit down and crank it out, i would feel much better. It doesn't feel like school though so i don't feel like i should be doing homework yet.
ok well i'll sign off now with this lovely verse.
"For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord." -Romans 6:23.

good night and God bless,
Heather

wat up dawg

2004-08-22T22:08:00.000-07:00

so hangin at the church was pretty fun the last few days. Pretty much anyone who reads this was there with me anyways. That bonfire was quite exciting. That flame got really high, but there's no need for my Dad to know about the white gas ;). Jet skiing was also great fun!

Today I went to the movies with Erin, Paul, and Alex. We went and saw The Village, again. But Erin and Alex hadn't seen the movie yet. It wasn't quite as scary the second time around. Erin didn't find it the least bit scary, but she's a tough chick. By the way nice amp Paul! It is very cool and I'm sure your neighbors enjoy listening.

So one more week until school, quite sad, I'm going to cry. But hey someone has to start tommarrow (Paul). Ok Well I'll be seeing yall later this week.

Luv Ya,
Heather

what a fine day it was

2004-08-18T21:05:00.000-07:00

Hello there. Today was a grand day. I went over to Paul's house today and hung out with Paul and Timmy. It was very exciting, Paul showed me how to add links to my blog and we played this car driving game on xbox where i kept on killing myself. Then Paul and I went and picked up Erin and went to carl's junior, fun fun. So I hope your last day of summer was fun Paul!

Tommarrow I get to go register! It will be soooooo much fun. Then I'm going to go hang with my homees at church. I'll see ya there guys.

here's a nice verse that I read today "Repent then and turn to God so that, your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord" -Acts 19.

God Bless,
Heather

Hey There

2004-08-17T23:31:00.000-07:00

Well I just got back from watching a movie at Paul's house with: Paul (of course), Chrissy, Timmy, and Erin. It was quite fun. A funny, old movie but i forget what it was called. By the way that's a nice new phone that you were talking on at Paul's house Chriss (hehe). Earlier today was exciting also. I went to a clay class where i created a Monkey/bear/dog sculpture. It's very interesting looking. I also went on a lovely bike ride today. So that's about it for what I did today. Hope you were just thrilled to read it.

Today was another day of putting off my History project for school. So I'll probably put it off again tommarrow until I have to do it like the day before I go back to school. Oh well. I really need to learn how to just do something instead of prokrastinating (sp?), but I geuss that just happens when it is something for school

Ok, I geuss that is it for my post today. Hope you enjoyed. I bet you can't wait to here what I do tommarrow. Well good night.
