Northland Baptist Bible College

Well, here I am at Northland. Supposed to be a high school senior, but now a college freshman. Classes are going good so far. I have had to do some arranging, but I think they are going to go better now. This weekend I went over to some body's house on Friday. We had pizza and played games. Then on Saturday morning I took my first trip to Iron Mountain. WE stopped at Walmart where I got some good old fashioned school supplies and misc. food, and then headed to the BK drive thru. I went with a new freshman named Shannon. After words, we hung out in my room talking. painting our nails and exercising in the midst of eating chocolate.
Then off to dinner, and have spent the rest of the night on the phone and watching a movie. Tomorrow I am going on an extension and then to a mini birthday party for a friend. I got her a picture frame today. That was fun.
Hopefully church goes well.
Then we will see what the next week holds. Once I am finished with my homework of course.

Winter Fun amidst sub-zero temperatures

On New Year's Eve I went to the King's house, where we played
games, pingpong and hung out. A few minutes before 12,
Leanna Poorman and I went out and made snow angels. One of
the highlights of the night. The snow had just fallen. Last year
Leanna came over to our house and we hung out so it was fun
doing it two years in a row.

I hung out with Erin and Amanda for most of the night,
and just chilled with everybody else.


My annual picture of Brittany and I.
The tubing activity was a ton of fun, but it was really cold.
By the time I was home, I was
also frozen. A long shower helped thaw me out.




Christmas


Us girls doing some holiday baking.

We all admitted this was the best picture.

Christmas was very busy. We had all the family over since the the first time since I was born. It was a pretty big deal. We had different kinds of soup and bread from Panera, as well as loads of goodies. After the party Hannah, Emily and I drove around in the car listening to Christmas music and viewing the lights. After everyone had gone home, and the parents gone to bed, Hannah and I strung popcorn chains while we watched a new movie I got in the gift exchange. Christmas day was spent with the Fowlers opening presents, and playing with them. We had lunch together, and the rest of the day was spent just relaxing. It was lots of fun.
We were up till 3 am stringing popcorn.
