... it's about time

I know, I know, its been a long time! Really I'm quite a hypocrite for ever bugging Darren about his blog because mine is starting to gather even more cobwebs than his! I now have 2 great reasons to post a blog though so I will write this post and then make a concerted effort to love it and pay a bit more attention to it...

Reason #1 -

I met my blogging crush. Two weeks ago Janice and I went to Summerland and I got to meet Amanda who's blog I read ... a lot. That's write, I'm a bit of a blog stalker. She's pretty great and hilarious and her daughter is just too adorable! So I met her and she checked out my blog... and then Facebooked me to get my act together, so here it is Amanda!

Reason #2 -

Something very exciting happened! I got a new job. Starting May 1st I will be the Ministry Hub Coordinator at Langley EV Free Church. I'm so excited I have basically not stopped smiling since Thursday night and sometimes I just squeal ... that's right, I said I squeal. Its a really good thing Janice doesnt read my blog cause she would smack me for being such a girl. I can't wait! I'm so stoked excited to be a part of this awesome team of people that love Jesus so much that they are giving their lives to "push back the darkness in Langley" (I have to put that in quotes because it really is taken straight from Darren's mouth :)). Maybe it sounds corny but I can hardly wait, its my idea of the perfect job.

So the whole interview/application process has been a few months and I guess I've just kept putting off posting because I wanted to have something really exciting to talk about. And, of course, another very exciting thing in our life right now - Matt graduates in 2 weeks. More about that soon...

Yay! The quarterly blog update. :)
It was swell to meet you too...thanks for being willing to be roped into babysitting Avelyn, by the way.
And congrats on getting the job! I am sure you'll love it and bring so many good ideas and qualities to the table.
And yes, I did see the Office last week. My, how I had missed it. Jan is NUTS and I love her for it.

PS: I mean Jan from the office and not Janice, who you work with. Just to clear that up. Janice isn't nuts; she's cool.
