trip to the Cities!

Yesterday I was able to make a day trip to the cities with my husband :)

First we stopped in Blaine on our way down to get some Chipotle...MMMMmm it sounded so good and I was getting too hungry to make it to Bloomington without eating. Unfortunately our friends Josh and Ria were working and we weren't able to see them.. NEXT time for sure!

Then we headed over to the MOA. I decided against going to IKEA because I figured I would never come out once I went in! So that trip will be saved for when we have money and can actually buy the things we want for our home. We spent several hours walking around the mall and were able to meet up with a friend from the Honor Academy. I hadn't seen her in about 3 years. It was so fun to spend some time with her and enjoy Caribou :) Miss spending time with her and taking in some of her creativity! While we were there Jarrett got a new "toy" at the brain store. Take a look!

(they actually take quite a bit of concentration)

After enjoying coffee, we headed to the airport for our REAL reason for the trip...
To pick up Corrissa. She has been in Cambodia for the past month doing clinics. Praise the Lord for her safety and the amazing opportunity that she had over there. She is such a caring person and is going to make a terrific nurse.

(here is Corrissa working a clinic)

Now today I plan to tackle some house work and get some studying done! 

Have a blessed day and be encouraged! 

"The Lord your God is in the midst of you, a Mighty One, a Savior [Who saves]! He will rejoice over you with joy; He will rest [in silent satisfaction] and in His love He will be silent and make no mention [of past sins, or even recall them]; He will exult over you with singing." --Zephaniah 3:17 (Amplified Bible)
