Life is really busy right now, so I apologize that I haven't been updating my blog like I normally do. I've just been lacking those 5-10 extra minutes in my day to sit down and write a new post. Well, It's Sunday afternoon...I'm watching Father of the Bride for the 900th time...and I finally have some down time to do those things that I like doing...like laundry and blogging! :) So, here's an update on the happenings in my life....well, I need to switch the clothes to the dryer first, so hang on...
OK, I'm back...so, away we go....
Work...
Wedding season is in full swing! Last night was my 3rd wedding in 4 weeks...and there are many more to come in the new few months. I love this time of year...but it does mean that work is really busy for me. I couldn't ask for a more wonderful job though...I never get tired of sending my brides down the aisle...it's the most amazing feeling....truly, I love it! We're also in the midst of moving offices, which has been very exciting, but lots of work. Our new office is about 3 blocks from our old one...we're now located in an adorable house off of McKinney on Boll Street in Uptown. It's going to be a great change for our company...we're all really excited about it. I'll post some pictures soon once everything is done. So, stay tuned...
Chloe...
Miss Chloe's foot is doing much better. She has to wear a cone at night and when we're not home during the day so she won't lick her stitches. She gets her stitches out on Wednesday. She's been a great patient...we love our little cone head!
And on top of Chloe's $200+ vet bill last week...I also had to shell out $500 at the dentist. One of my fillings cracked and caused another cavity under the old filling...so now I have to get an overlay done. Just lovely...
When it rains, it pours...
Zambia...
All of our money is raised ($7600)...thanks to our family and friends and the Lord's provisions! We are so thankful!! The first week of Camp Life starts in a couple of weeks which is very exciting...Josh and I will be at week 8, which is the last week of camp. We leave for Zambia July 20th and return August 3rd. We're counting down the days! It makes my heart leap just thinking about it. We attended our last team meeting a couple of weeks ago...we received all of the last minute details and information....along with a 4 page packing list! We have to go get all of our shots soon...yikes, I'm dreading that.
Church...
We're official members at Irving Bible Church as of last weekend! We're really excited about our new church home! Prior to attending IBC we went to The Village Church...which we absolutely loved...but Josh and I started feeling convicted that we needed to join a church that was in our community. The Village is a good 20-25 minute drive from our house...which was making it difficult to get plugged in like we wanted to be. There are so many great churches in our area, so we started visiting IBC a couple of weeks before Easter. From the start we felt like it was going to be a great fit for us. We've been visiting a young marrieds small group on Thursday nights that we're really enjoying so far...and we're both looking forward to getting involved in the women's and men's ministries.
Random...I'm not biting or picking at my nails anymore....a huge accomplishment for me.
I've decided to start tanning...I haven't tanned in a tanning bed since my wedding 3 years ago. To be quite honest, I don't like the idea of it...but, I'm just so tired of being pale! And I don't want to have to live through the embarrassment again of my niece, Kalie, asking her mom why her MiMi is so white!
We've booked a vacation to Colorado for the week of July 4th with my family!! We're spending the first half in Aspen and the second half at our cabin in Buena Vista. While in Buena Vista, we're going to climb Mt. Princeton and go white water rafting! We're looking so forward to a little get-a-way in the mountains! We can't wait!!
Well, that's all I can think of for now. No promises when my next post will be...but, hopefully sooner than later!
Have a great week everyone! :)
