It is about time for an update...........

Happenings in the life of Kate….

December was a great month! I finished up my internship November 30th, and then had the month of December to sleep in, spend time with my family, and hang out with friends. Since my internship was at my home church though I did find myself still spending time in the office. I took a trip to Presquile Maine, visited Lor and Robert for a week. We had a lot of snow which made skiing conditions great, and since both of my sisters work at the hill I was able to get out for free. I spent some time in Toronto with my cousin and we took a spontaneous day trip to Buffalo, NY… if you are an avid reader then you will remember when I went to Boston NY, and thought Buffalo was in MA…now I have been to both cities in the proper states. Matthew Deprez dropped by my house on his way through from Michigan to Maine. He got to go horseback riding for the first time (that was a funny sight). Christmas was wonder I was blessed abundantly with Family, lots of love, and of course some nice gifts. I spent New Years at home with my Best Friend Connie; we stayed up really late and watch Saturday Night Live. (Hey I never claimed to be an exciting person)

Moving on to January…I left home January 7th bound for Fredericton New Brunswick, to Amy Smiths house!! Since I always have a odd flight partner let me tell you about my seat buddy Joe. UNB was going back at the same time so my flight was rather full of students (and some of the guys were not that bad looking, I am not going to lie I did ask God if I could sit beside one) Now Joe my seat buddy was not that bad, he was friendly, just came from Vagas and had been flying all day. This prompted the question why was he in Vagas….well he was in a Beer-pong tournament! Yea I sat beside a beer-pong champion (I just laughed in my head, God has great humor doesn’t He) Needless to say once I explained what I was going to school for the conversations were fairly dull.

I arrived on campus January 8th with Amy, who did an amazing job helping me settle in to my new Town House apartment. I met my new wonderful roommate Sara Milligan, who I have absolutely come to Adore! The Lord has really taken care of me while I have returned here, and Sara is one of those tings that I know the Lord placed as my roommate. A program at the school (Mentorship) has allowed me to have the opportunity to mentor her for the semester! Heading into the fourth week of classes I am settled in to routine (staying up late and then getting to class, then napping!) I am heading home this weekend for a short three night visit! It is also Connie’s Birthday!

So that is my short little overview of an update!
I will post pictures from the weekend once I get back.
