A Great Week!

I was trying to think of something profound to write about, but all I could think about was that I've had such a good week! I didn't have a lot of stress like other weeks. Yeah, I've been busy, but it's still been fun!

Just a little recap:

1. I finally got a verdict on my knee- I bruised my femur, which is a slow and painful healing process, but I don't need surgery which is a huge blessing! I've been able to practice some this week, and I'm on the road to recovery!

2. Christy is feeling much better and defeating her mono! AND I didn't get it- another huge blessing! For once, being a clean freak paid off!

3. I'm actually enjoying the cool weather! There was once a time when I would cringe at any temperature under 65. But, despite my Texas roots, I've been able to appreciate the brisk afternoons. This is due to the absolute beauty of my surroundings- fall at Luther is wonderful! And the knowledge of what is to come which is the terrible winter ahead...but let's not think about that now!

4. My classes have been going really well. Even with my mid-terms this week (how can they already be here???) class has still been really enjoyable. I like all of my teachers and the homework load is actually bearable. Plus, we're picking classes for J-term soon, and I'm really excited to start looking into classes for next semester!

5. We decorated our floor and room for Halloween! If I may be so bold as to sound totally girly, it looks so cute!!!

6. Chapel Thursday was really interesting! We had a guest speaker who played his acoustic guitar for us while also giving a good message on listening. It was totally what I needed to hear!

7. And finally, Homecoming last weekend was a blast! It was the perfect way to start this week! Having such a huge crowd for the football game was so cool- not to mention winning such a big game! I loved spending time with my parents and meeting all of their classmates! (And they finally returned to Texas!...not that that's a good thing....anyway...)

All in all it's been a great week! Once again, I am so happy to have picked Luther and to be in college!

I hope y'all have as good a week as I did!

"I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do everything through him who gives me strength." -Phillipians 4:12-13
