Nevada & Canada

In January I went to Nevada to visit Todd and Patty Olson.  Patty was my roommate while I went to school in Canada at NTM.  Patty is pregnant now and they are due sometime in July, I believe.  It was so nice to be able to visit them and also see beautiful scenery that surrounds their little apartment. 










 






 


















In February I went to Canada to visit classmates and staff at New Tribes Mission of Canada (NTMC) and to visit my roommate from Bible school, Mel Ottaway.  At NTM of Canada I got to visit with Carly (3rd picture), who is a good friend and is on staff at NTM.  I also got to enjoy LOTS of snow which was wonderful:-).  While I was on campus I also had the privilege of having lunch and dinner with 2 staff couples that discipled me during my time in Canada.  Then after my short visit at NTM, I went an hour south to see Mel (last 2 pictures), who is also pregnant!  It was such a treat to be able to get away and see friends and to receive encouragement.  I definitely miss my friends from Canada but health wise my body needs to be in California.  

On February 22, 2008 I started "Plan B" for my T.M.J. problems.  I now have a permanent retainer with braces in my mouth for the next few years.  Please pray for me as talking and getting used to eating with a permanent retainer with braces is hard!  

*Thank you to everybody in Canada- it was soooo nice to see you all of you guys!!!!

Mel makes such a cute pregnant lady. I'm glad that you were able to see old friends. It's nice to be able to relive old memories with them.
