Graduation!

Hello you. Yes, you reading this blog right now, i'm talking to you. I just wanted to let you know that i graduated a couple of Friday's ago. My degree is a Bachelor of Science in Biblical Studies and Theology with a minor in Psychology from Multnomah University (Multnomah Bible College). Other than that Karen and i are doing very well. I am in Colorado right now for my brother's wedding, and she was able to come out here and join me for the first week of it. We biked, hiked, ate, slept, sought God, and enjoyed the blessing of one another. Man alive i LOVE this girl. Now i am just chilling for a few weeks until the wedding, after which i will be returning to Portland, OR for at least a year. Who knows what God has in mind, but Karen has another year of school so that will keep me there for at least that long. Alright, peace out. Summer is here, take a hike...seriously. O, and the top picture is from a thing at school we call Junior Senior Banquet, or JSB. We get all dressed up, dine, and dance. It's pretty freakin' sweet and isn't she GORGEOUS!

Valentines Day

So, i think it was Jesus that wrote the book of love and this page sure was a good one! Karen and i headed up to her house outside Seattle for the Valentines Day weekend (the actual day falling on a Saturday this year). Friday night we met up with her family and played games, ate dinner, and just kept building those connections. Then on Saturday we had the greatest of times; i got to hang out with her dad just to get to know him more, we had coffee with her mom in the afternoon, and then her and i got away in the night for some 'just us' time. We had dinner atop the Space Needle in the revolving restaurant and it was freakin amazing! A starry night with unmatchable company, and food that is something like the wedding feast of the Lamb I'm sure (actually probably not even close, but it was quite blissful). Afterward we went to the observation deck for a little while, then drove back to her place, snuggled while watching 'Ever After', and then hit the hay. It was quite a little vacation in the middle of the business of schooling, and it really refreshed and renewed our infatuation with one another (though it hadn't really diminished, so i guess we strengthened it then). Alright, much love to you all, peace out!
