our saturday

Saturdays so far this semester have been so great.  Maybe it's because I haven't really had any work to do yet. Or maybe because I only have classes on Tuesday and Thursday and have Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays off (my suite mates get so sick of hearing that) so I'm not stressed.  Whatever the reason, Saturdays have been work-free and stress-free which I'm not complaining about.  Sundays have been just as great too.  I've really trying to make Sundays my day of rest and I'm finally realizing why God intended us to keep the Sabbath!  It makes so much sense and I'm so glad he told us to do it.  Sundays are usually spent going to church, eating brunch, watching TV and taking a nap, doing laundry, cleaning my room, and preparing for the week ahead.  I love it.  


Yesterday Julie, Kayla, Laura, and I enjoyed our coffee, cereal, and omelets at D-hall in the morning and then Julie and I headed downtown to explore.  We shopped some and just walked around.  If you know Harrisonburg, then you know that downtown does not consist of too much.  We discovered a new favorite store, The Lady Jane (pics below), and the owner even lived in the Maid House (the house we'll be living in next year)!   Later that night Laura, Sarah, Kayla, Kelsey, and I all went to Dave's Taverna and enjoyed some delicious Greek food.  We topped the night off by going to a party at a Young Life girl's house called Narnia which was great fun.  It was my kind of Saturday...

I left my battery for my camera at home so the pics of downtown are thanks to Jules!

Newly discovered fabric store... I will be taking advantage of this! 

The Lady Jane shop I am now obsessed with.  

Loved the Poms

We ran into my teammate, Amy, and friend, Lacey.  I got to capture this great pic of Amy
