We could start this blog post with an apology, but somehow that seems ... counter-productive. Matthew and I are seeking this year to live in the moment and not let the past define us. We will try to communicate more regularly this year, but to be honest, our everyday activities are quite normal. We clean toilets, vacuum the centre, maybe work in the kitchen and get the chance to bake. We love the mundane every day activities that we do, even if they don't see to be quite "exciting enough" to write home about. So our goal this post is to let you in on the last 2 months, both the exciting and the every day.
Winter Maintenance:
This year Matthew and I got to assist the team by helping to re-organize our kit/gear store, deep clean the property, and various other activities. I, Cynthia, really enjoyed helping to color-coordinate the instruction department, and Matthew got to get outside a lot and even gained his Archery Certification! We also cheered on friend's in a Santa dash, went caroling and celebrated Matthew's 28th Birthday in true Sherlock Holmes' style.
Christmas Holiday and Break:
Weather and Other Everyday things:
Things to Think/Pray about:
1. Health: As it is so bitterly cold over here, it is getting harder to stay warm and healthy. Our essential oils are helping, but the cold is seeping into our bones so to speak. Prayer for warm bodies, and smart decisions to stay healthy.
2. Next Year: Matthew and I have begun putting out applications and dreaming about what to do after this coming August. We have several options we are exploring right now and would love wisdom and encouragement in figuring out the next year in our life.
Thanks for all your interest and for caring about us!!!
Love,
Cynthia and Matthew
