Good start :)

Spring break has been pretty good so far. Friday I spent the afternoon with Sarah looking at wedding dresses because in about 6 months she'll be marrying Kevin :) Whoo! We went to a wedding show called Making Memories where you can buy used dresses for cheap and the money goes to breast cancer patients. They weren't super cheap if you ask me, and unfortunately since Sarah is so small, they didn't have much of a selection. It was awkward leaving without anything, they made her try on this horrid dress. Well, they didn't make her, but she felt bad haha. They did give us pretty flowers as we left though. Then we departed to drop off our brownies at church and stop for a delicious dinner at chipotle before the Westminster Conference. [Told you I eat there a lot ;)]

Saturday was fun as well despite my horrible headache that refused to go away. Hung out with Sarah again, where the plan was to bike ride in the beautiful weather. We ate brownies and looked at Panama pictures instead haha :) Then hungout with Caitlin for a bit which is always fun! Went to dinner and a movie with her and Stacy after. We saw Alice and Wonderland, which of course was weird, but I expected it so I wasn't too bummed. I thought it was well put together, but when I can't understand half the made up words it kinda looses my interest. And the ending with the dancing was just too cheesy. But a lot of people liked it; to each his own.

OH, and I got my amazon books that I ordered for my birthday last week too. They got here so fast! Amazon is the best. I got two new commentaries, and a book on the basics of linguistics. The first commentary is for children and its on leviticus. Yes I said for children, but I think it can be for both. Steve Casseli recommended it, and I'm enjoying it so much. I've always had a difficult time reading leviticus, and this has helped tremendously. It's by Nancy E. Ganz, if anyones interested. The second commentary is on Zechariah. I'm so thankful for books like these.

I used to never read that much, but I've found the older I get, especially throughout college, the more I thoroughly enjoy it. I'm a slow reader, and I think that's what makes me lose interest and eventually I stop and start reading something else. I've definitely gotten better and am starting to discipline myself to finish. Still working on it though haha.

"Such is the confidence that we have through Christ toward God. Not that we are sufficient in ourselves to claim anything as coming from us, but our sufficiency is from God"-
