Emilee

My sweet cousin Emilee turned 12 on Monday!

I remember her birth day like it was yesterday.


She was just so cute! My aunt and uncle waited twelve years to become parents and Emilee was our answered prayer. It was one of the most exciting and most memorable days of my life. I'll never forget it.

She's been such a blessing to our family. She's caring and considerate and always kind.

Riding is her passion and although I always pray for her safety (because they make me a bit nervous!), I also pray that she always does what makes her happy. And her horses make her so happy!


We love you sweet girl and wish you many many more birthdays!

It's finally official.

We finally signed our lease! We have an official place to call home for the next year (and hopefully longer).

Sorry about the condition of this photo. It's mobile, and it was raining but you can get a gist! I'll post more photos when we move in. :-)



We're happy to have this taken care of and think it will be a great fit for us! We move one week from Saturday. Eeeeek!

Still praying on a job for Justin!

Easter

I hope you all had a great Easter! I didn't take a single photo, but we had a great day.

We surprised my grandmother and went to church with her so that she wouldn't have to go all alone on Easter. She was thrilled!

We ate lunch with Justin's family and had dinner with mine.

It was a gorgeous day! Hope you all had a wonderful day! We are so so blessed to serve such a gracious Savior.

Oh! The Easter bunny surprised me with a new handbag!!! I haven't had a new one in two years! I'm over the moon. Isn't she cute?!?

One Month

In one month we will move from this tiny town. I really have mixed feelings about this.

I love being close to our families and friends. Justin has a job that pays the bills. We love our home. I also love this town (and lake of course), it's home and always will be.

BUT I'm also ready for something new. A new town. New places to eat and things to do. New experiences. New memories.

So the transition is starting. I've packed one box (big whoop compared to what all I have to pack lol), but more importantly, I've come to grips with the move and have started to embrace the sweet more than the bitter.

That's not to say I won't cry when we actually move. ;-)
