What's New????

I figured it was about time to update our blog again---we have been doing very well. Hefty has been subbing a lot the past couple of weeks. He really seems to enjoy it. He has been going to Holland and West Ottawa mostly. We just wish that he could get a fulltime teaching job. Oh well, I have been working a lot at church and also at Family Fare. It is pretty fun to stay busy and to have a variety of work available to me. We started our youth group season off this past weekend. It is was a blast!! We played a "Which Leader Is It?" game. They had to guess what leader the question/fact applied to. We also had the wedding of some good friends last weekend! It was fun! It was nice to be w/ our friends again. The adoption process is kind of on hold for now. We both really want children, but, want to do it at the right time. We also celebrated Hefty's birthday this past weekend. We went to my mom's Sunday am for lunch and then we went to Hefty's mom Sunday pm for some cake and ice cream. It was nice to be w/ our family again too. I have been asked to teach Children's Worship at church, so I started that last week also. It is fun to be w/ the little kids again, although, I like my teenagers too. I think my passion in life has switched from little ones to teens. Kinnda weird....well, that's about it for now.


Hope all is well,

FOOTBALL SEASON IS HERE!!

I have been told that I need to create a new blog entry by a couple people. Well, its fall and school has started, so what else should I talk about...... the football. I am excited about every kind of football starting. With Holland and Holland Christian's varsity team winning last Friday, what better way to start off the football season. This Saturday is also the start of the Grand Valley football season and I will once again be working at some of the games. Also, the Detroit Lions were 4-0 this post season, so could this be the year? Maybe or maybe not! The one downer so far has been the start of the University of Michigan's football season. This is definitly a rebuilding year for U. of M.

With the start of the football season, also comes fantasy football. We had our EDGE youth group draft on Wednesday evening. It was an exciting time. My big pick (1st round pick) was Adrian Peterson of the Minn. Vikings. Hopefully he will have as good as a year as last year.

Besides football, I have been busy with work and church stuff. My boss at Family Fare left our store I have had a ton of extra responsiblity given to me and that has taken up some time. It has also given me alot more nights working then before. It is definitely a change for me. With the school year starting I am slso exicted to start subbing again. I might even be subbing for a close friend of mine this year, who got a teaching job at Wavecrest just before school starting. That was definitely exciting to hear! Congrats again Nick. I am proud and excited for you, but a little jealous at the same time! Not much else is going on....

Hefty

Belated Post

Well, we must be really BORING because there really isn't much new in our lives. We have both been busy working, keeping the house clean and such. We are both loving our jobs, but we are still hoping for a teaching job for Hefty, although we just have rely on God and trust HIM! We heard an awesome sermon the other week about trusting God and not making our own plans. It really hit home for me! Sometimes I feel like we try to "create" or "manage" our own life. We need to put our lives in God's hands and He will take care of us....as He has been all along. We are anxious and eager to start EDGE up again!! We miss all of the Youth Group kids!! It has been a good summer!! We are also taking a trip to California this October, so we are geeked about that! Well, I guess that's all for now.....God Bless!
