Back in Flag (for a few days)

Well, I arrived back in Flag late Wednesday night. The two hour long trip up the mountain was slow going and it felt longer than normal. The roads were pretty sketchy because it had been snowing so much this week, that the schools had snow days every day and finals got cancelled. So I came home to a foot and a half of snow! It was beautiful!!



The past few days haven't been too eventful:
~had doctor appointment in phoenix Friday, and it was very encouraging! The MS has not progressed for the second year in a row-PRAISE THE LORD. It is so cool to see the Lord provide strength and good health these past 3 years of being diagnosed now! This should give me more confidence in the amazing thing the Lord can do-yet I am human and I can quickly forget the miracles...
~Spent the day delivering food gifts to friends Saturday then watched Twilight for the 2nd time
~Spending lots of quality time catching up with the parents and sister.
~Grandparents are driving through Sunday, so we will get the chance to spend some time with them as well as shower them with God's love!!!
~Lots to look forward to in the future-
*lots of opportunities for internships this summer-I just have to wait for doors to be opened. *Internship in the spring with Buckner International
*Trip to Indonesia
*Trip to Peru at spring break
**so my schedule is slightly crazy the next month, so I have decided to "go off the grid"...meaning spend time with my family and God! Take advantage of the cool places I get to go, people I get to be around- I am going to simplify my life and get away from the every day distractions of life (cell, facebook etc) I will keep this blog updated, but other than that, Emily is going to take some time off from the busy world! This is gonna be a test of self control, but I really want to be receptive to the Lord and what He is trying to teach me this break! I am really looking forward to quality time with the family and some awesome solitude with my Lord!
Merry Christmas ♥ Em
