Fun, Family & Friends in the cold Alberta winter

Overall the end of another pretty great week! (No I won't blog this week about how amazing my wife is... at least not too much... though it is still very true!)

On Thursday, we had a "School Spirit Chapel" (assembly) at PCA Secondary School culminating in the men from the Colombia Missions Team performing the "Evolution of Dance." It was a whole lot of fun and laughs and along with the students, teacher John Stewart and Principal Randy Wood were such good sports... and thus the reason the extra funds were given to the team. It is good to be able have some "good clean fun" as Christians. Most times, people think that if you choose to follow Christ, you give up all the good fun and life is just one somber moment after another. But Christians of all people should be the most joyful people and the best partiers!

Also great to have my brother Tim and his two daughters, Lauren and Macey visiting this weekend. Even though we won't all be getting together for, this is like a "family Christmas" with all of us being together - and the weather being soooo Christmas-like (cold and snowy!)

And just a few minutes ago, Sarah's friend Shirley (Selvaraj) who is visiting her sister for the weekend here in Three Hills stopped by and we got to have a good visit. We last saw her for just a few minutes as we were returing from part 1 of our honeymoon on Vancouver Island. And today is my friend Phil Krahn's birthday, though I don't think we'll be able to get into Calgary to see him and his family until the Christmas holidays. Hopefully the Flames will win tonight for his birthday.
