So its been awhile! Life has been extraordinarily busy of late! So here is a quick update on whats up in the Dekker family!

This past spring we have been getting used to a regular work schedule for Nathan. It has been crazy as he has been working sometimes more than 50 hours a week. Good for the bank account but it keeps us very busy! We have been living in Edmonton for almost a year now! Its hard to believe that the time has gone by so fast! This summer we have a few major things taking place which will make things busy again but should lead to some quieter days to come.

Last week we attended Nathan's graduation ceremony in Medicine Hat. It was a lot of fun. It was great to see him finally walking across that stage and fulfilling his lifelong dream of becoming an RN!

This past week we moved. It was a bit of a sudden move that we can only attribute to God! We weren't necessarily planning to move but the perfect place came up and God worked out all the details to make it possible for us to move in right away. Which meant that instead of my typical super-organized-packing-for-days type of move, we had a three week notice, no time to pack move! This week has been very crazy but so far I am almost organized again. I have a bit of stuff left at the old place with our new roomie! :) As well as a few boxes left to unpack at a later date. Our new place is great! It is a house...three bedrooms on the main floor and one finished bedroom in the basement. We now have a wonderful backyard where we can set up our new BBQ(a wedding present from 6 years ago that we were unable to use until now!), herb garden, and flowers! I will include pictures at a later date!

We are leaving in a few days to go visit some good friends in the USA whom we have not seen for 5 years. We are very excited! It will be a lot of fun!

Thats a quick update on whats been going on lately.
