Reunited and it feels so good!

Tami and family were back in the states for a short visit.  Natalie, Dana and kiddos loaded up and met me in Broken Arrow where we all got to spend the day with Tami's family. 

We had so much fun playing at the park (although it was cold).  It was good to get to be around Tami's kids, and I think Zeke and I are now best friends!

I am so blessed to have friends like this.  We are more than friends, really, and more like sisters....family.  I love you girls!

Counting Sheep

I got a new bed--a queen!  It's basically brand new and I got it at half the original cost.  It's amazing!  I can now sleep in on Saturdays in style!

All grown up

So today I became an adult.  I am all grown up with a mortgage. 

Going to the chapel.....

.....and Scott and Susanne are getting married!!!!

This is the 6th wedding I have been a bridesmaid.  It was beautiful!  I am so excited for them and the life they have together!  Love you Sus!

Surprise Visitor

I was surprised today at my office!  Amy stopped by to see my new digs and to say hi!  It was such a blessing!

I feel like a freshmen all over again.

Today I feel like a freshmen myself.  The first day of school....not sure what will happen and who you will meet.  Will anyone like me?  Will I do okay? 

Today I start a new job.  It's totally a blessing, but I am nervous too.  I hope that I can do a good job and connect with my students.  I hope they show up! 

I am nervous, but probably not as nervous as the REAL freshmen I am going to meet!  I think I'm ready....deep breath and here we go!!!!

Uncle Jake

I had a great time today with my brothers and family celebrating my Uncle Jake's life.  It was very surreal being back in the church, though.  The last time I was there we were saying goodbye to my daddy. 

Uncle Jake was full of spunk, humor, and love.  He will be truly missed.
