Well, I think I have been taught a lesson. Don't say something unless you're going to do it. Good lesson, huh? I think so. So, I apologize for saying I was going to blog every day-definitely did not happen. I'm playing catch up right now from what has taken place in the past couple of months. First is a picture of Rebekah, me, and Leah at "Fargo Star". It's kind of like American Idol, except the WAY smaller Fargo version. Our friend Emily was one of the top 10 finalists. (Sorry, I didn't get a picture with her!) We had fun making these glow in the dark t-shirts in Emily's honor. :)
Just this past weeknd (May 9th) was the Fargo Marathon! I think I told you about it in a previous post. I only ran the half, but it was so fun. This one was even more fun, I think, than Grandma's Marathon last year, because so many friends came to watch and cheer us on. I had a goal of running it in an hour and 45 minutes, but missed it by five minutes. Next year! My friends Leah and and Jess were cheering us on and that's when Leah got this crazy shot. 
My friend Rebekah ran the half, too, and her mom, Deb, ran the 5k. 
My friend Hope ran too! 
And with the photographer-Leah!
Oh, why do I live in Fargo? Because I get to hang out with these great friends of mine! (That's one reason anyway.) :)
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.
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.
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. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0tzuAxhOSfE&feature=related
