It's snowing!!!!

yeah!! i love snow!!! i had been praying that it would snow before i left mongolia and i woke up this morning to see everything turning white! haha... i love weather in mongolia! the leaves haven't even changed colour yet and there is already snow! well anyways... i have only about 2 weeks left here before i head back to canada. the summer has been really good! i am sooo glad that i have been able to come! oh and for all of those who came and met holly she had her baby on monday. her name is HeatherGrace Mandakh White(it is a mongolian name for sunrise but i don't know how to spell it) and she was 7lbs 7oz. well i haven't been doing too much the last while. we went camping right after kirk got here...poor kirk got really sick though. we were camping next to a river so we went tubing lots and the one time we went there were all these mongolians next to the river and as we were going by a guy came out and grabbed my tube and wouldn't let me go for quite a while. ahh... it was funny and creepy. i love random things in mongolia like... at a gas station they will tell you they are out of gas and come back in like 10 mins, or huge billboards all around the city that have wrong english. actually there are tons of things that just make you laugh cuz it is so different sometimes but i love it! also I did start language classes which has been good and challenging! it is nice that at least back in canada i will have my brother to practice it with. my plans for fall are to go back to prince george and find a job. i am really excited about it! it has been amazing to see how God is opening doors for me to go back there! i will be living with 2 of my friends in an apartment and actually we are going to be in the same apartment buildings as my brother and his friends! anyways i should get going i hope you are all doing well... ttyl!
