Hey everyone, sorry I haven't posted anything in awhile. I have been crazy busy but I think things are starting to slow done for now. In this post, I will be writing about what's been going in my life this summer.
In the beginning of July, I had an interview at Mark's Work Wearhouse and I didn't get the job but I thanked God and I praised him that I didn't get that job because I know that he has something else out there for me!
July 6-9th I cabin lead for the grades 3-4 at Harmattan and that was so awesome. Those kids are so stoked on life and it's so cool to hear them talk about their future. On July 7th, I met Grant three years ago in the Dining Hall at Harmattan. We were very blessed to be together on that day.
July 9th, Grant and I went with all of the other staff to Boston Pizza and hung out till about 11:30pm and Grant and I drove back to Sylvan and the next day (July 10th) I was asked a very important question at the lake. Grant asked me to marry him and I said yes!!!!!! That day was an amazing day because we were now engaged and we phoned all of our family and we have been blessed by all of the support from all of our family and friends. Grant and I were and still on cloud 9 and it is starting to sink in now as we are going wedding planning crazy.
July 17th-18th, I worked at the fair in Red Deer with 90.5 Shine Fm which was a blast, I got deep fried cookie dough and deep fried oreos which were sooo good!
On July 20th, Grant picked me up and we headed to camp again for the Grade 7-9 camp and Layla (cabin leader I lead with) and I were so blessed to have 9 amazing Godly girls in our cabin. I will never forget that week. The week was filled with so much fun activities, prayer and chapel. On Thursday July 24th, I turned 18. I had such a great birthday and I got to spend it with an amazing camp! Friday came along and it was a sad day because the kids had to go home. When it was time for the kids to go home, our cabin was in tears. We were connected emotionally and I have never had so many hugs in my life in one day than I did that day.
That night Grant and I drove to Kananaskis and went camping with his family and some friends of ours and we had such a blast hiking and enjoying God's beauty. I got back on Monday and I had a huge surprise waiting in my room....I opened my door and my room was full of balloons, streamers and pink wallpaper! That was so exciting! :D
I had an interview at Wal-Mart this afternoon and I think I got the job but I will know next week for sure!! I am super excited to do some more wedding planning and I am excited to see what God is going to do this next year!!!
I am so excited to start blogging again! Love you guys :)
