Got my "Mitch Lat!"

This weekend was absolutely wonderful! My two best friends from San Antonio, Jen and Lori, came to visit. It was such a wonderful weekend, and I feel re-charged! We spent the weekend at the beach, shopping in Cannon Beach and Seaside, playing games at the cabin, and just spending time being together. It was absolutely wonderful! I am so blessed by my friends. I am so thankful for the people in my life that God has blessed me with!

When we returned from the beach, I had a note in my inbox from a friend in Mexico, that we work with on our mission trips. She was in Cannon Beach and wanted to get together. Sadly, I had just returned, but no fear...she stopped by on her way to Portland, so I still got to see her and say hello. I'm really excited about this year's mission trip...we are taking people of all ages, including my mom! I am so excited to share this part of my life with her. Seeing Ineke really got me excited to serve, and ready to go back. Even in the short conversation that we had, I was brought to tears. I am so excited for what this year holds.

So all in all, it was a great weekend! Also, just for kicks...the Saints won the Superbowl, which happens to be the team I was rooting for. When Katrina hit, they spent a year playing in the Alamodome, so I felt like I was almost rooting for a SA team!

Great weekend, good friends, many blessings!
