Allison's Wedding

Us with our hair all done
Getting the Bride's makeup done

Me trying to walk not too slow, not too fast



Mr. and Mrs. Luke Strait

Yesterday I went to (or rather participated in) the most beautiful wedding God ever ordained. . .
It was held outside on a hill out in Yacolt with the most beautiful view of God's creation, and the sun shining down on us with a slight, refreshing breeze.
I am so happy for Allison and Luke. I am confident that they will bring the Lord glory with their marriage. . .
I have never seen Allison so happy.

It makes me look forward to the day that I will marry. . . God willing.

A New School Year

Dental Instruments and dental chart
Well, the beginning of my second (and last) year of Dental Hygiene school has been a time of "firsts":
For the first time I felt completely inadequate in being a dental hygienist.
For the first time I cried during clinic.
For the first time I feel like I'm truly on information overload.

Life is changing. . . And all I know is that God is in control even when it seems like life is difficult. . . That gives me comfort.
