YAY!

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY Y'ALL!! :) IT'S SNOWING!!! Snowing, and supposed to snow for basically the whole day!! Yay I hope it does thank you Jesus for this awesome snow! :)
Alright. So Jen DID come, and for two weeks, and she got to meet some of my friends, and she layered my hair and gave me side bangs, I saw the Terminal, she left on Saturday the 10th, all of us got a late Christmas gift of money form Grandpa and Grandma S. :) I bought myself a really cozy bathrobe. I havent used all of my money yet. :)

Jo and I went flying! :) Now, please understand right off the bat, that this is not a commercial airliner type plane. This doesnt have all the luxuries and all. Its classical. A Piper Cherokee-a little four seater. We go up, and its wonderful. But..see the pilot was flying blind which is where he has a mask so that he can only see the instrument panel, and not out any of the windows. My dad was being his safety pilot and the pilot was up there so as to get back into practice with flying blind. And we had some turbulence, so it was rather bumpy, which made Jo and I a bit sick. Basically, I threw up, we landed in another airport and they went to go fly while Jo and I rested. The airport was awesome-so small (inside) with a little couch, a big window, aviation magazines, hot drinks and water, a radio where you could hear all the fliers up in the sky, and a bathroom. That was pretty much it, I think. But it was nice. Classical. A bunch of sort of elderly pilot men were in there, and they saw Jo and I glance at a big red book that had a cartoon cover that said, "The Gremlins, The Lost Disney Story" (or maybe it said LAST, not LOST. They go, "Oh thats a GOOD book", "That book isnt for kids-its a pilot book, and more kids should read it", "We're serious, its a GOOD book!" Haha! So Jo and I picked up the book eventually and read together. It was good and cute and sweet. :) (BTW-I was fine pretty much) After a bit, Dad and the pilot landed there and we were ready to go back to the airport from whence we came. :P So we went up and it was a whole lot smoother this time. He wasnt practicing flying blind, and there wasnt really any turbulence, or at least not much. So I was fine. I really enjoyed that day except for that one part but really it was awesome, and Dad says I just need to get my "sea-legs". :)

We had MEC on Tuesday I think since we missed two thursdays in a row and since we might not have any classes on Thursday, because of the snow. I hope it really gets to be that deep and stays!! :)

Happy Valentine's Day everyone!! (Oh-and I believe God is patching things up between some friends and me so thank you Jesus! :))

God Bless,

Hey lovely Face, your page is very pretty too. I'm glad to hear you had fun on your flight, it's just too bad about getting sick. ....what happened between you and your friends that needed patching?
It was really good to see you a few days ago. But though I am VERY happy for YOU to have snow, I must say, that I am equally happy to be enjoying the 50ish degrees out here. On Monday, my friend Erin and I walked around downtown Portland comfortably with just light jackets on. It felt very nice. And the sun was out! Which is odd for Portland and Oregon in general this time of year. Okay, I am slightly a little jealous of your impending blizzard. I hope you all get to go snowing soon.
By the way, I'm so glad you had the lingual mishap of saying, "does it have to be your birthday," because now I will say that to my friend from Argentina and she will laugh.
I love you Mo.
