Wedding Number Two!

I can't believe I didn't post pictures on my blog from this wedding yet!  This actually was a wedding that I had a pretty big part in.  I was helping with decorating and I was a co-MC with a good friend of mine. So we had some responsibility which unfortunately means you have less time to take pictures. I tried my best for all our friends who didn't get to come but obviously all my pictures aren't going to go up on this blog.



They had sparklers while they had their first dance. It was one of the best ideas I've ever seen. Gave all the guests something to do while they were dancing. :)

And I couldn't not put a kissy picture in!

This is my favorite church in the entire world... and I've never even been inside. But the outside is pretty beautiful huh? Its in Bratislava.... AND I'M GOING TO GO SEE IT AGAIN!!

Yes you read right. I'm going back to Slovakia! I learned on Friday and I've just been too excited and trying to do so much planning I didn't even blog about it.  So now you know.  I'm doing a YWAM Discipleship Training Course. (learn more here: http://www.europedts.com/ ) But it starts in September so I have alot to do with very little time.  Four weeks, but I don't even have a flight yet so.... I feel like I'm cutting it awful close.  Now i just need to get my passport renewed, book a flight, make sure I have enough money, buy all the things I will need that I don't have yet, read the book they want us to read before I go, tell my boss I'm leaving earlier than I expected.... I'm sure the list will get longer as I think about it. 

God has been so good as I waited to hear about if I was going to this course. I had such peace that everything would work out. I just need to keep trusting that he will help me get all these other things done in time.

My First Photography Gig!

I just realized that I never put up pictures that I took for my friends' wedding!  These pictures were put up on each table as table numbers and were taken around the city at places they have fun together. Actually they used the b&w versions but I thought I'd put the colour ones up... i like the colour.  It was a great day for me to hang out with them. Alot of fun was had. and they are the most photogenic people ever so the pictures turned out amazing. The bad news is that now I REALLY want a fancy camera so the pictures would turn out even better!



I love this one with her smirking at the camera, but kissy pictures are pretty great too. I think this was one of my favorite locations.








I love this picture but I obviously was not paying close attention.  Table number two anyone?  I fixed my allignment for the next one thankfully.



These last two pictures took so many tries! And they didn't even get used! They ended up only having 14 tables. But now the world gets to see!

The (not so appropriately named) Sunshine Coast



This weekend I went up to Egmont on the sunshine coast with a few friends from University. All i can say is "what sunshine?"  We hardly had any the whole weekend. However, we had a great weekend.  The boys even caught some fish. They were ugly fish, but they caught them.  We hiked to the fastest? largest? strongest? the most something tidal rapids in Canada? North America? The world?  Obviously I wasn't paying much attention to why they were so exciting.  They were pretty cool though. Some brave kayaker was taking them on.


I had a great time walking on a rocky beach looking at starfish and jellyfish and everything in between.  And my favorite part of the whole weekend is that the ocean has these crazy little animals or plants or whatever that bio luminesce. What does that mean?  They GLOW!  when you stir up the ocean and the little things get disturbed they glow!  So we had a great time stirring the water up and throwing things into the ocean. Including Shay.  Watching someone swim in it was so very cool.

For more pictures check out my facebook album from this summer.

Also: I am supposed to find out this week if I am going to Slovakia or not.  Please be praying with me (and my home church that my mom apparently has praying) that God's will is done and I end up where He needs me to be. I'm feeling pretty relaxed in knowing that he is in complete control.

I don't have time to update both facebook and my blog so facebook won today.  Check my pictures for an idea of what I've been up to.
