The End Is Near

Friends, sorry for the lack of postings. I will continue to be out for a little while as the end of the school year is near!! The actual week of finals won't be too bad, it's just these couple weeks before hand where we are completing projects, etc. I'll try document something and post as soon as possible. I hope you are all doing well and enjoying the spring weather that is slowly coming around-I know I am. Which reminds me, the Fargo marathon is just 2 weeks away! It's getting pretty exciting. Anyway, I am in the midst of writing a paper, so I bid you farewell and will most likely be rejoicing and more relaxed the next time I post.
Peace and blessings.

For All Those Requests

For all those requests of pictures of my boyfriend. :) We're just messing around with the iMac photo booth-it's always provides good entertainment. :)



A New Tradition?

I was able to make a quick trip home for Easter. Friday night and Saturday dad, mom, Erica, and I just hung out and enjoyed the beautiful spring day. Later in the evening mom and I took a nice walk, which is what the above picture is from.
Sunday, after church in Roseau, we headed to Grand Forks to meet my aunt Gwen, uncle DeWayne, cousin Crystal, Grandpa, and uncle Dan. Since our traditional meeting place, Royal Fork, is now closed, we met at the Golden Corral. (Another buffet.) It was a good time to catch up and just enjoy each other's company. (Above: Crystal and Gwen)
Danny and Grandpa.
Erica, me, Dad.
Grandpa and me.
Erica sleeping in the car while I was driving....I was laughing so hard because she had wrapped her jacket around her head-I think to sort of act as a pillow and drown out the music/crazy car noises my car makes. :) It was entertaining anyway.

Musical Shares-5: With a Focus on Easter

This is a song that has really made me think about Easter and why we celebrate, so I found it appropriate to share with you at this time. The song is entitled "True Love" by Phil Wickham. Here are the lyrics:

Come close listen to the story
About a love more faithful than the morning
The Father gave His only Son just to save us

The earth was shaking in the dark
All creation felt the Fathers Broken Heart
Tears were filling Heaven's Eyes
The day that True Love died, the day that True Love died
When blood and water hit the ground
Walls we couldn't move came crashing down
We were free and made alive
The day that True Love died, The day that True Love died

Search your heart you know you can't deny it
Come on, lose your life just so you can find it
The Father gave His only Son just to save us

The Earth was shaking in the dark
All creation felt The Fathers broken heart
Tears were filling Heaven's Eyes
The day that True Love died, the day that True Love died
When blood and water hit the ground
Walls we couldn't move came crashing down
We were free and made alive
The day that True Love died, The day that True Love died

Now, Jesus is alive

Jesus is alive
Jesus is alive
Jesus is alive
Jesus is alive
Oh, He is alive
He rose again

*Please Note!* This particular video of the song has scenes from "The Passion" and is quite graphic.
