God is GOOD!

Can I just say, I love my job! I was just struck today by how amazing God has been to me. I was just sitting poolside at a grill restaurant in the hotel I'm staying at, in Cebu Philippines, eating molassis and pecan crusted salmon as this great tropical breeze blows by and I just have to be amazed. All of this is being paid by work, and all I have to do is my job, which I love! Never would I have thought three years ago that I would be on my second oversease business trip with this company. I dind't think I'd be there longer than 6 months and this month marks 3 years!
I have been so blessed to be able to travel and do what I love. I've been to Asia 4 times in the last 4 years. A testiment to God's sense of humor since I never had any desire to go to Asia :) But if I'd gone to work anywhere else, my opportunities to travel probably woudln't have been available.
So, things that happened today to make me write this... I had jumbalaya and fresh, as in I could have watched them make it, mango juice. That was lunch. Dinner, molassis and pecan encrusted salmon, mashed potatoes and asparagus. Topped off with a pina colada! All on the company's bill! I may not be eating foods I've never had before, but I'm ordering things I've never been able to afford! Life is good.

Randomness

"We're kidnapping your bike... The lock's in the way though." Was the text I received from my roomies tonight when I got off of work around 11:30pm. They're so fun :) As I stepped into the lobby I saw them sitting in the dark, on the couch waiting for me to come out. They'd been out for dinner and thought to come pick me up from work. How sweet! We got home and as I went up the stairs I checked the time, 11:56pm. Brie disappeared into the kitchen and Eron blocked the entrance. "What time is it?" he asked. I told him. "Well, we'll go off of mountain time!" and he and Brie burst into song, singing Happy Birthday. Brie had made me homemade, Giradelli chocolate brownies with homemade caramel sauce on them! Mmmmm, they we're delicious! I love my roomies!

Tids and Bits

Cebu? Really? That's the last time I blogged? Well, yeah, I guess it is. Well then... I think I'll just post pictures and let that catch me up on what's been going on with life :)

Eva the Princess

Yesterday I got the pleasure of watching Eva while her mom went on a date! We had such a fun time! Eve and I went to McDonald's for lunch where she got to play on the play structure for an hour +. Then we came home and drew pictures. Last time she was here we built a fort and at church she asked me if we could do that again. So, we made a huge fort. I wanted to take a picture of it, but I forgot. It took up the whole living room though, so it was pretty cool. After watching "Beauty and the Beast" Eva wanted to dress up. We found a skirt in Crista's closet and made her a "dress" that twirled. Crista and I put on our dresses too, but she wouldn't take a picture with us. Of course she lost her camera shyness and I've got several cute pictures of her. She's such a ham!
