Wow, things have been crazy busy here the last two weeks! We basically hit the ground running, not realizing that we're in for a marathon... such fun!

No, really, it's been awesome getting back into the swing of things and reconnecting with friends from last semester. It's also been neat meeting the new students.

Classes have been great so far! At least, Romans class has been fun. :-) Tech class... not so much. I don't understand pretty much anything in Tech class, but it's been fun getting to do the labs. I got to solder for the first time (for those who may not have a concrete concept of soldering, it's basically melting metal with lots of smoke and fire and stuff... lots of fun!).

Soldering (with cool glasses :-) )

We just finished Romans class last Friday, and it was really great being reminded of so many foundational truths. One concept that I really appreciated was the idea that our relationship with God is like a marriage or an adoption. It is final and secure. This promotes intimacy between us and God. I thought that was a good way to succintly describe our relationship with God.

One interesting thing is that we now have a new crop of babies on campus that were born over break. As some of you remember me saying while I was on break, the joke goes that those who enter MTC married end up leaving with five kids (basically accurate) :-)

So for the benefit of all those back home who are insanely jealous at the moment (ahem, Mrs. Debbie ;-) ), here's a picture of me with one of the babies, Hudson, who is a month old.

Baby Hudson!
