Well life has taken a bit of a turn for me as of late, and it just seems like I am realizing now! Why you may ask? Well I don't really have an anwser for you only that I wish I could go back and do it over again, and I am so unhappy with that statment. I never what to regret what I have done in my life but I must admit that as of late I have. Where is the excitment and adventure, in surveying? Hardly. No it is in God and in your neighbor, it is where it has always been, in the love that God has created in us. What would we do without it, what could we do. Run though life in a hurry hoping to live out the american dream well I am here to testify that it does not work. Who ever said that doing things for yourself was the way to live, not Jesus. Not my Lord, no He said to consider others better than yourself, do unto others as you would have them do unto you and serve. Serve with all that you are and when you are done, serve some more. I have not done much serving lately, some, but I could do more. I could always do more.

The other strange thing I have noticed lately is that everybody is getting mad at me for not spending time with them. Friends, family, girlfriend, work, they all want my time and yet there are times at which I have none to give. I am just fresh out it. Or I just don't want to because I am lazy which I can say happens more times than it should. But it begs the question is there something wrong with me, am I not being considerate enough to others. Maybe. You know what I have noticed, what does God do when you stop hangout with Him? When your time seems so important to you that you thing you don't need Him at the moment, what does he do. Its like H e takes a step back and lets you. Now of course you know He is always there but for a moment it seems like He backs off and gives you your space. And as I have done a hundred times the desire to be close to him becomes even more intense everyday you are without him. Point being why is that people don't do that. Why is it that a person feels compeled to make you feel bad for what it is that you are doing to them? Is that in some form revenge? Why can't we all just give up the fight and let God rule over our lives completely with His perfect Love? That is what I am missing. I have also found myself missing you all too my Scotland Family. Time goes by to fast in this world sometimes and I wish to slow it down a bit. God help me to love as you have loved and live as you have. Love you all and hope you are all well. 

Just a picture for fun of a couple of love birds that are in falling for eachother!

I love the Redwoods

I also love goats

I also love God, that's all need :)

Well it has been a little bit O' time until my last update but there have been some cool things going on lately. I am going to another wedding friday which will be like the 9th wedding I will have gone to this summer (hoooooollllyyyyyy cow!!), I know my work is a little upset at me for all the days off but you know what I really don't care. Anyways we had a bachelor party for him (Ben) yesterday and so we rented some paintballs guns and went into the woods to shoot eachother. We came back with welts and a new found respect for those men in the armed forces. Ben and his buddy are in the Air Force as well so they had some good stories of paintball training in boot camp and such.

All is well though, Stephanie and me have really been having a great time lately and I have to admit I am really excited about the upcoming snowboarding season because I am going to be teaching one crazy red headed Texan how to hit the slopes. She has also said that she has never been able to see it snow so I am quite excited to she the look on her face when she see's it.

Work is going well as always I am about to get my own company truck to drive to work and to the job sites when they need another set of equipment on site. I am already starting to do part time party-chiefing which is pretty much being the man in charge out at the job sites they the office sends us to. It is quite exciting and I am still enjoying it.

Lastly though God is really helping me to grow in the last month or so. There is a guy at work that is proving hard for me to deal with. God is challenging me to keep removing more and more of the old life, and I want to do for Him. Why? Simply because He loves me and I want to love him back by doing his will in every area of my life. So that is that, hope my scottish family is doing well and that God is blessing you guys!
