Ok, so on the path to save money..I have tried to become a frugel shopper. They way I like to buy clothes is spend more money on good pairs of jeans and pants, and mix up my shirts, sweaters, ext..every season! So one of my finds and I have found some success in getting some cute cheap stuff, is Superstore:) I am sure many of you have seen the Joe line, maybe purchased..but if you haven't, check it out:)

One of the many reasons I live in chilliwack
After work yesterday, dave and I headed out to cultus lake to meet his parents for a bbq:)
I loved this!! I felt so blessed by God to live in an area where I could get in my car and 10min later be near a gorgeous body of water, to eat, and fellowship with friends. I joke because I know a lot of people thought I was crazy when I moved from Vancouver to Chilliwack, and yes there are many things I miss about living in the city, but I love where I live now too! Especially because of who I live with:)wink* I am surrounded by gorgeous lakes, rivers, trails, community, family and fun!
Last night I went to my first dance class. I had drop in hip hop classes when I lived in the city and loved them so it was time to get back into something. I needed something active without being bored:)
Well, last night I had a blast! There was about 12 women in the class, from 20-55! it was great! I loved the variety of women that came and gave their all:) My question is though...why can't we do this in church. I how I pray for the day when we can dance freely in our churchs..when young and old will let loose for Jesus! I will be at the front when that day comes!

God is so good!
Ok, so I am fighting a stupid cold; that is not the highlight of my day:) I hate being sick:(
Anwyays, on to other things. So, basically i have a bunch of random thoughts in my head today.
I am overwhelmed right now by how great God is:) His presence in my life was so strong this weekend, and in such a short period of time, my undestanding of him greatly increased!
I love how God truely does work in mysterious ways.
Dave and i both feel like we are in a very peaceful place, where good change is just around the corner. I am excited, and wait in expectancy for what God is going to do in our lives! I don't know yet, but I can just feel it:)
God really moved this weekend in unique ways and I am so thanful for it!
We went to Broadway church on Sunday because we were out in the Burnaby visiting our siblings. The message was on failure..a touchy subject for me because I do battle with this in my life. My dad always said I was my worst enemy, and I am too hard on myself.. I really felt God releasing some of that this weekend! God opened up my eyes to a new outlook. I was thinking during and after the sermon about area's in my life where i feel like i have failed. And when I thought about such things, like finances, it really hit me, does God really consider these things failures, or am I going by the worlds standards? Anyways, this was really big for me because I really battle it. It also really struck me, how can God help me move forward with the things he wants for my life when I am sitting in guilt and shame for the things I have done in my past? Again is this what God want's for my life? I am thinking no:)
My heart is in a place of receiving new understanding of where God is taking us, and it is so exciting!! I know he's got a plan, I just have to walk in it!!
New things are coming......because I am letting go of the old.....
