| wow, its been a long time! many changes have happend and im usually not a big fan of change, but im liking this one! i just know that this is where god wants me, and there's no better feeling than knowing that you are in god's will! i love that! i love my job and absolutely love the people i work with! they are amazing and god has blessed me far beyond what i deserve! he has been teaching me what its like when you wait on him and how amazing it is when you do....if only i can apply that to waiting for my husband! :) i am...hes teaching me that one now!
i am the director of prek & k at a church here in the woodlands and the program is pretty amazing! just in prek & k we average about 400 kids each sunday. so its definitely a big program and im in charge of it...which is kinda scary, but im learning! the church has so many resources and its amazing what they are able to do and how they are able to reach so many people!
so i am also coaching a 4 year old cheerleading squad!!!! ya...its crazy! we had our first practice this past monday, and it was a bit hectic but oh my gosh they are sooooo cute! one little girl came in her cheerleading outfit from i guess last year and she was so cute, they are so little and trying to teach them cheers is definitely interesting! in the middle of me teaching them a cheer one girl just dropped and layed down in the middle of the floor. i was like "what are you doing?" and she was like "im a starfish!" i know...random! but funny! we have games on saturdays that we cheer at so it will definitely be fun!
well, i better get to bed, its late and i have an early morning and we leave EARLY friday morning to head up to oklahoma for chase and marias wedding! :) hope you all are doing well and i miss you guys!!!!
OH...SHOUT OUT TO RYAN FOR VISITING ME AND TAKING ME TO P.F. CHANGS! YOU ARE AWESOME!!!!! NOW FINISH MY PAINTING! :) | | |
| well god has definitely blessed me with far more than i deserve!!! as most of you know i've been looking for a job in the woodlands/houston area. about 3 weeks ago eric and jill told me about an opening at their church to be the director of the pre-k and k, so i went down and applied for it and have been going through the whole process of interviewing and all that for the past 2 weeks or so. well today i got the call and they offered me the position!!! im so very excited! i will be working with kids and still be in the ministry which is such a blessing and something that i wanted to continue to do. its at the woodlands united methodist church, and after talking to eric im so blown away by this church. i also sat down with sheryl who is now my boss and shared with her my beliefs and how i felt on that whole issue and she was great and told me everything they believe...to make a long story short this is not your ordinary methodist church and its so neat to see all that they are involved with and also their beliefs on things. so thanks to all of you who have been praying! (mysti and patrick...you guys are amazing and im so blessed to have friends who are constantly lifting me up in prayer!)
so tomorrow will be my last day at AOA, which will be bitter sweet. i know that its time to leave but at the same time ive been there for so long and AOA is definitely family to me and to leave will be hard. im so thankful that god has allowed me to be there for so long and to work with such great people. im definitely a blessed girl!
also, please if you think about it pray that i will be able to find a place to live...and quickly! gas is nuts, so i cant go back and forth for long and im going to need an apartment as soon as i can get one. im going to look at a couple places on wednesday just please pray that everything works out.
thank you so much and i love you all!!!

| so i dont even feel like ive seen some of my friends in FOREVER and it makes me a sad girl! ive been so busy with job hunting and just working and trying to make decisions that will affect me for the rest of my life! job hunting is scary but at the same time very exciting. i just applied to a christian school in houston and it sounds amazing... so im really excited to see what happens there.
also, my brother graduates in like 3 weeks and thats so weird to me. i love my brother so much and he has defintely been such an encouragment to me over the years but especially over this past year and i cant believe hes going off to colllege! i will miss him!!!
k, guess thats about it for now! i know....not too exciting, sorry! but please if you think about it just pray that i will trust God as i make all these decisions and that he will just guide me to where he wants me to be!
hope you all are having an amazing day!!! | | |
| wow...so many things keeping me busy these days, but i rather be busy than not having anything to do! there are a lot of changes about to happen in my life that i am very excited about...but also a little nervous! but its neat to see god work out all the details! as of right now, i will be moving to houston in the beginning of june, ive been looking at a couple of places to work and they are both great so im just praying and waiting to see what doors open up! i already have a place to live, which is such a blessing...and i love the place, now i just need a job to pay for it! :) so if you guys think about it, your prayers would be much appreciated...just that god gives me wisdom in the decisions i am making.
my brother graduates in may which is so weird, i feel like hes not old enough to! but ive been hanging out a lot with him lately just because hes probably going to end up going "off" to college and i just want to take advantage of the time i have now with him. he is such a great kid and i couldnt be more proud of him...ive also been trying to hang out more with carrie, which has been good.
oh and friday i get to see shane and shane...and if you know me AT ALL you know how very excited i am!!! :)
today was greatness....me and mysti started off our day with church then we went to jasons deli for lunch and then to the astros game! we sat on the 8th row, which was amazing and super fun! ummmm...but backe has brown eyes now...what happened to the blue? he looks like hes 10...for real! we were both a little weirded out, but the game was so fun and they guys in front of us kept us pretty entertained! we also got pretty red! but it was definitely worth it to watch our boys play and they did so good!

| PRAISE THE LORD FOR ASTROS BASEBALL!!!!! Today was the opening game and it made me so very happy...but sad that I didnt get to watch it with Mysti!!! But Sunday we are going to watch our boys play!!!!!! GO 'STROS!!! | | |
