1. On Tuesday, there was a fatal shooting that happened two blocks away from our house. The shooting occured on 12th and 25th around 5:30pm. A 22 year old was shot four times, and died an hour later. Also, a 7 year old was grazed by the bullet. We know that the shooting wasn't random, it was intentional. It was a good reminder to be aware of our surroundings in the neighborhood. But, we take refuge in God and trust that He will protect us! God reigns soveriegn over this neighborhood and the world!
2. Classes and school are back in full force! Andrea is taking three classes, Steph is taking four, and Ellie is taking two TBI classes at the North Campus. We are still currently at our jobs. Go T-Paw!
3. Andrea is going to Cameroon in December for 2.5 weeks! HURRAH!! What an amazing gift!
4. We MISS our dear friends in Arizona and Cameroon!!!!! But, we know that God is using them for His Glory in those places.
5. Pray for our neighbors. That we would have many opportunities to develop relationships and show them Christ's love.
6. We started youth group last Wednesday. Each of us will have a group of girls to mentor and grow deeper together in our relationship with Christ. Pray for that! We feel inadequate for the task ahead, and we need God to work in/through us.
7. NO Dutch Blitz has been played since the departure of Gabe and Julia Schmidt. Sad. :(
8. NO sweets for Ellie and Steph. NO caffeine for Andrea.
9. We (Andrea and Steph) are officially hanging up our "dating just for fun" shoes. It's time to get down to business!
10. This is a big deal. They are kind-of a big deal around here. THE TWINS. Hopefully, they will go to the playoffs.

Good thing you clarified who had hung up their "dating for fun" shoes...because I haven't! I mean I say life is too short to be serious about things like that!
EHarmony is having a free weekend this weekend. It ends on Sunday night. Eric says there is a nice person here in CA...I think he attends our church and his name starts with a B. He also shares a name with our cousin. I am sure you will remember him. There are also some other single men here in SoCal.
