Jazer.. bones.. and a land down under....

Another term has absolutely flown by and once again it's time to head out on a "ministry" trip. Although this trip will have a little different aspect to it. Technically it won't really be considered a full fledged ministry trip since its just Shanna and I being touristy :) It is still my goal though to always be that lighthouse displaying Jesus glory and radiance in my life, no mater where I am or what I'm doing 

Anyway travel back in time to October 8th, a glorious day! A day when I was blessed with my second little adorable nephew! Jazer Afon Yoder. I'm amazed every time. (which equals twice :) at how tiny, frail, innocent, and completely helpless a newborn can be. Yet how much joy and tremendous excitement they bring! Its good I don't get them to often because I always about kill myself on my bike when I find out that they have been born..Hong Dong road turns into the Daytona 500 in my effect to very rapidly get to the hospital, my sisters will testify to this fact :) Yes I love little Jazer!


And my dear lil buddy, Caden Arel.. love him dearly as well :) I'm blessed! 



So that was the most exciting thing that has happened to me by far....it started the term off wonderfully and not that it even compares, but I am really excited to be ending this term in an exciting way as well by taking my favorite youngest sister in the world to the country down under..It has been a dream of mine for as long as I can remember to visit Australia, it was a dream of my dear mother as well so it means more to me just knowing that in a small way I might be sorta fulfilling a dream of hers for her.. 
The only downside is...and its a pretty stinking big downside..but due to some incredibly ridiculous stupidity on my part, I fell..not extremely far..but far enough...on to some rocks..hard rocks :( and now I have a small crack and chip in ankle/foot bone...the doc says 4 to 6 weeks.. lol..I say 4 to 6 days :) but I would appreciate prayers for quick healing seeing I'd rather not be on crutches forever...
