Ordination and House Hunting

Well this weekend I went to Robbinsville for David's Ordination. It was a weekend full of surprises. One being that Mandie came down and surprise David which was by far my favorite surprise. Another one being that saturday morning at breakfast David and Dana told us they were expecting number 4. So exciting for them. Everything went really well saturday, David was ordained and sunday afternoon they had a ceremony and some cake to celebrate. It was really neat to get to be there. 

My parents also came up for his ordination and to look at some houses. We are trying to find a place for me to rent so I can spend some time in Robbinsville helping camp out. I want to go help do some promoting for camp, help out with the staff kiddos and whatever else I can do for them. Also I want to get more involved with the youth at the local church! They are phenomenal. :) We found a house that will work, now I am just waiting to see if my friend is still wanting to move with me. Craziness. Please pray for all those details, I really want things to work out. 

Well be sure to check back soon, I should have wedding pics in the next couple days!!

Honesty

Well it's been a month and a half since I blogged (sorry Lou). But to be honest I know I was putting it off. There have been so many events this past month and a half, I've been to Robbinsville twice, been in and out of Charlotte and gone home for my brother's wedding and I promise to start blogging on those events soon but first I need to come clean. I haven't been blogging because I have been up and down so often that I never knew what to say. I would start to blog on an event and act like everything was great but reality was my heart was hurting and my mind was spinning. The week after my road trip I couldn't even begin to tell you what I WANTED to do next and that was extremely hard. I took a week and did some real soul searching. It ended well and for the first time I could say what I would choose to do next and that would be to go back to Robbinsville and help camp out and invested some time there. Since then I have been trying to figure that all out and it is still a process. I have enjoyed all the adventures but the transitions have been painful. One I hate saying see ya laters and two it is so hard not being settled somewhere. So I will try and pick this back up but I will need a little grace when I have hope in one post and the next one I feel like the world is falling a part! That is where I am on this journey, trying to hold on to hope, follow the Lord and keep fighting even though at times I wish it all would end!
