Yes, it SNOWED...in Raleigh!

I woke-up to a wintery-wonderland this morning! We got a little over 6 inches of snow today.

I LOVE long weekends!!!!

I actually spent most of the weekend doing homework...I have seriously never had so much. It's not that hard, there is just a lot of it...a lot of reading!

Also this weekend I got to meet my friend Heather's new baby twins!!! She is married to one of the Honduran brothers that Hillary and I are friends with. Poor Heather has five children!!! Jocelyn (7), Hannah (5), Seth (3), and the twins Gabriel and Elijah. I did not know until today that Heather is only 23! I am excited for this opportunity to be her friend. Pray that our relationship would grow and that I would be able to bless her by spending time with her and helping her with "childcare". I also LOVE playing with her other three children...they are sooo fun! Today we played Freeze-Tag for an hour. Fortunately, her mother-in-law stays at their apartment 5 days a week to help out!

Below is Elijah Preston and Gabriel Antonio. They are 3 weeks old!

I also celebrated my friends John York and Jasmine Cooper's birthdays on Saturday. A big group of us went out to eat at P.F. Chang's Chinese Restaurant.


This past week Allison and I held a Knitting Program for our residents. It was a big hit and I see the girls working on the scarfs when I walk past their rooms!
