Praise: Last year when we hit the 12-week-till-home mark (when we were in Africa) I was really homesick. The countdown crawled by. This time around, I couldn't be more content with life as it is. I'm beyond excited for being home soon, but at the same time, God has been doing such amazing things in my heart and in our lives. I'm sad to have to leave all of our new friends here, and I'm totally in love with our little house and with every day that we get to study the Bible. Praise God for all of these blessings!
Another praise-- we finally received my new laptop keyboard! You might remember this post, in which I announced that I'd gracefully dumped my cup of tea all over my laptop. Miraculously, nothing was broken except the keyboard, and I was able to borrow an external one for a month while we figured out a replacement. I was even able to replace it myself with no problems, which helped save a little bit of money! Thank you, God!
This week we've been working on 1 & 2 Kings and 1 & 2 Chronicles. One of our assignments is to make a timeline from Saul's reign through the exile and the eventual rebuilding of the temple. The Samuels and Kings are some of my favorite books, so I've been especially enjoying our homework lately.
This Friday was also our quarterly Welcome to Montana Night. Jesse sadly had a nasty flu-like thing and couldn't come, but it was fun as always!
I would like to announce one of my proudest moments in the kitchen which took place yesterday afternoon. Please be enthusiastic for me. I made marshmallows!
It was kind of a sticky mess part of the time, but my good friend Candace was there to document the event for me!
Thus endeth our weekly shenanigans.
