I also moved out of a place where I had lived for almost 4
years and it was a change that I really needed for several reasons. I was
blessed with the opportunity to live in the compassion house as a live in volunteer
which included free accommodation and the opportunity to associate with some
amazing people. I then found a great place to live in September. Looking back,
I can really see the hand of the Lord in leading me to where I need to be.
I am also grateful for the times I was able to spend with my
family. It was great to have all of my family members come out to Edmonton to
visit me on three separate occasions, including for my convocation. I am also
grateful for the times I have been able to visit my family out in BC and Utah,
as well as Scotland. It was wonderful to be able to see my Grandma again as
well as cousins, aunts and uncles. I have also had some memorable moments with
friends, including being part of a wedding. 2011 was a good year! I am excited
to see what 2012 has in store.
