NOT MY SHOES!!

So yesterday was probably my best Halloween, not that any one point was extremely fantastic but, when you put all the little moments together, it makes me step back and think This is good!

So after my epic church service I got invited to watch the boys football game, so Logan and Stew came to pick me up, wait for it, in a MINI COOPER! Now first of all I love Mini's and secondly, Stewart McWilliam, in a Mini, well I'm sure the visual explains itself. So we drive on down to McAdam Park, and Mary is there too! Which makes my day so much better. Unfortunately the guys lose, and after freezing my toes off (I was wearing my Toms) Logan takes me and Stew back to his house.

With the promise of warm soup ringing in our ears Stew and I collapse on the couch for a little R and R while Logan makes us... Mr Noodles. Ah well, it was rather appreciated nonetheless. After our delectable soup and a tour of Logan's gun collection (party!) we decorated Logan's front yard for trick or treaters.

Now I know some people really get into Halloween but Logan's family goes all out! They had spooky music, and a full size coffin which Logan hid inside. Stew and I pretended to be dead and got some good scares too. After that we made our way to the bonfire in Chemainus with all the other study kids. There were some laughs and such and then the fireworks! Also an impromtu visit from our local police. Apparently someone threw a dud firecracker into the fire though and after a while it exploded! First of all, it ricocheted off my hip (scariest thing ever!) then it hit the back of Logan's leg, apparently burning through his pants and burning his leg. I missed all the details cause this is when all us ladies decided to leave.

All five of us pile into Luney's car and start to embark on our trip home when Mr.Ryan Politano slams into the car! I screamed of course, and Marissa got out and chased him, he then decides he needs a ride home. So there are now four of us in the backseat, and Ryan is one of them. Let me say, I did not hate this experience :)

Finally I arrive at home, as I fumble with my keys I look down and see my Toms for the first time in the porchlight. Let's just say they are full of memories, and mud, and possibly cow poop.

I'm just a lovesick fool....

Ugh it's official the so called "love bug" has bitten and it's gettin itchy folks. I hate it when they text you and then you reply and it takes ages for them to get back to you, it's practically instantaneous people! Like c'mon. My friend D was recently engaged in one of these situations and she was all stoked on the prospect of a possible new boy in her life, until he totally crumpled that hope into a paper ball and tossed in into the garbage can by completely blowing her off. I wonder if that is what God feels like when we ignore Him. Does He pace back and forth, pulling on His hair waiting for us to reply to His text message? Does He freak out when He finally receives a reply and all it says is "K." It kind of changes my whole perspective of the situation. But for now I'm just going to relish in the fact that God never ignores us when we initiate contact, even if that super cute guy does. Damn those biceps, they get me every time.

I'll be there for you, cause you're there for me too...

My body is so filled with excitement right now it's disgusting. My friend and I are about to embark on our own "Most excellent adventure" . Her birthday is coming next week along with her reading break and I booked the whole week off of work so we can initiate what we will refer to as "Super epic birthday week." We intend to re-hash all of our radtastic adventures such as going to Saltspring, Victoria, and a myriad of crazy experiences in between. I am so stoked! You know the type of friend I mean, the one who knows you inside and out, knows just what to say when you need to hear it, and most of all, loves you not for who you are but in despite of who you are. I have many good friends but very few compare to this girl. The thing is, this little lady friend of mine, is really the only one who just "gets" me. We've been buds since the seventh grade but it really wasn't until we graduated that this huge bond grew between us. We have so many memori...

There's a reason that I love this town...

So if you were in Duncan yesterday you would have to agree that it was gorgeous out! Looks like Spring has finally appeared and is trying to stick around. Seriously though I love where I live sometimes. We are surrounded by so much green, lush, nature that I am constantly being reminded of God's glory and infinite beauty. The day would not of been complete without a visit to the Corfield Cafe in the Duncan Garage so I went and ordered some lunch as per usual but this time instead of enjoying the atmosphere inside I took my meal to go. Wandering around I decided to take a seat in this little park wedged between some buildings right down town. Now usually when you walk past there are homeless people scattered all around but today it was vacant and waiting for me. While the sun warmed my back I finished my super delicious meal and made my way into the downtown core to read my book. After a while I started to feel rather lonely. I'm reading "Irresistible revolution" by Sh...
