Adventures in Alberta

Hey everyone! Long time no post here ;)

After staying 3 weeks after camp ended, editing hundreds of photos and helping to setup the camp with a good starting block for the photographer next year. Now I am back in Alberta for a bit. My parents have asked me to take some pictures of their cattle for some promo material, so that will be fun! Going from taking pictures of crazy kids to cattle? :D

I am hoping to soon find a place and a job in Kamloops, BC. Why Kamloops you say, well read a post a little further down to understand why. ;)

Thanks for continuing to post on this blog throughout the summer!

Seeing as we're all talking about jobs.....

Well...seeing as we are all talking about jobs... I'm in PEI and I've decided I'm not moving to Edmonton... I'm heading to NYC in a few days and i'm just tempted to stay and nanny (myles has multi-millionaire friends who are looking for nannies).... or.. head home and try and finish off that debt a bit there... it's something you can pray about, but being out here has got me thinking... I need to start taking care of myself instead of just flitting here and there and never saving up and starting over, staying in one place. so... if you could pray for me about that and give me your two sense i'd appreciate it.
Love you!

I got a job too!

Hey all, I got a job too! Im so happyI will be leading at an after school program and I start on tuesday Im so excited about it. It feels nice to have stability again, so thanks for the prayers they have been much appreciated. I think its going to be great to work there cuz Its a christian based company so my bosses will hopefully be good to me. but ya I hope that I do ok... im a little nervous.
Kailyn I will totally be prayin for you girly! I know how you feel a little bit.

So I got a job

Finally! And it's in Kamloops...just can't get away from that town! But record set right now - first town I've returned to for a second year. Not that it was my idea though...I must have been God's because SOMEHOW everything got organized and brought about without me. I didn't even apply for the job! The job is at Kamloops Agriculture and Range Research Station - yay Agriculture Canada. I won't say that I think the job is going to be awesome yet...The people who did my interview were very nice and encouraging and seemed fun loving and easy going. But you never know how these things could turn out!! Oh I am being kind of pessimistic. Anyways, did I mention that the job starts in TWO DAYS?? My interview was only yesterday! So I don't exactly have a place to live yet - so it's kind of a large step of faith for me to accept this job and just move there! I will be crashing at my old house...and I will have to sleep in the living room and live out of my bags until I find my own abode - which is RATHER difficult in Kamloops!! So naturally I have mixed feelings about all of this as I'm not the best at trusting God to provide, but I'm gonna try it and see how amazing and good God is. But I'm scared!!! Oh well...That's all for me.

blaahhh thats how i feel right now

Hello all,
soo after a crazy good summer I am back home in Victoria. I am so happy to be home on the most part but Im unemployed and it kind of sucks. I think I will post again when I have more energy and less on my mind. But I pretty much just wanted to ask you all for prayer. I think God is going to do some really cool stuff with my non christian friends this year, I am praying alot that I can really show them Gods love and help them to experience him in real ways. I also want to spend a lot of time with my sister. I really need a job to help me stay in Victoria so please pray for me. I trust God and I know that he will provide but I am having a hard time staying optimistic (job hunting sucks!)
I miss you all and I pray for you too
let me know how your summers went I love hearing from you!

I broke myself....

ok well... yesterday some of our Kaleo family went canoeing:
jim, Ben and Danny Badke, Jordan, Nate (Kaleo 2) John Hepting (Kaleo 3) and I all paddled to saltspring and back and then we found the old rope swing half way up maple mountain and decided to go for a jump. (jordan did some crazy jumps and such) As I was jumping the last time my hand slipped and I fell hard into the water and on the way back my middle finger began throbbing and today I went to see a doctor and I found out that it's broken and off the growth plate. tomorrow I go to victoria to see a specialist so if you could pray for my finger... that would be great.
Thanks guys!!!
