Well, as my photos are trying to upload and probably won't I will type. It's been a while since I posted.
My arm is completely healed and it was tendonitis from Berry pulling me, so I decided to get Halte so she doesn't pull. It works wonders.
My last two weeks of summer vacation in Galena were incredible. David was so good to me in so many ways! We watched movies, baked, cooked, spent time with visiting pastors, blueberry picking, and had a bonfire by the Yukon River and Dunes. I got a drum lesson from Karrie (David's sister). She is so gifted musically! It was fun to serve a group of people who got stuck in Galena due to smoke from the wild fires. They were on their way to Unalakleet Bible camp but had to overnight. It was so fun to see people I had met a year ago at Bible Camp!
Seeing Jason, Myra and Romay was great! I love them! They make me laugh real hard and are always there to listen. Romay and I had fun seeing the moose and her calf. She thought the moose was looking at her, but I knew a baby had to be close by. I couldn't believe how close we got! Romay is just plain fun to goof around with. She's an amazing girl!
I got to spend an extra day in Galena due to flight mix ups and couldn't have been happier! The next day I left to Unalakleet for a math in-service. I so did not want to go; Galena seemed more exciting! I loved the Math inservice! I learned a lot and feel so more confident in teaching Math. I can't wait to start. It was great to see friends I haven't seen from the district and meet my new staff. We have a rockin staff this year. God has answered prayer and brought a Christian friend to Koyuk who is about my age. She loves God and His Word. I enjoy sharing favorite Bible Verses with her!
I also moved into a different apartment. I love it so much! I love the sun and the windows in the living room; either of these I did not have in the other apartment. I also have an extra room that guests can stay in. The new treadmill will also go in there! Super excited to run! I missed doing that in Galena when I used Myra's.
I got out once to go upriver with Elvina, Jean, and Kim. What a blast with those women laughing and just enjoying God's creation and blessings of berries!
One week of work with the staff has ended and we got a ton done! I have 11 kids this year and am super excited to see them tomorrow! I really want to teach well and have fun! We have a picnic tomorrow and am hoping the rain stays away until then. We have gotten tons of rain. Tonight is beautiful with the sun!
Berry has been enjoying her new running buddy Emily. She runs all the way up to Devils Hill and back and listens! When she went with Erika some months ago, she didn't. Berry also has a new taste for sweet potato pie. David made this awesome pie in Galena and Berry took it off the counter and ate the other half! She also killed her first rabbit on the ski trail! It was a little disgusting to see but I was proud of her!
Well off to read and bed!
