There has been a million things that have happened to prevent me from blogging as frequently as I would like to. Bellow is a short recap of the past couple months.
1. In April I started a new job and continued renovations on the house.
2. In June I had to go to Dayton for a job-related conference, preparations for which kept me extremely busy.
3. Although I was hired as the development director for Initiatives of Change, I have also taken on the communications position until we hire someone, so, in essence I am doing the job of two people!
4. We finally had a bunch of visitors over to the house. The big project was the bathroom which took forever to finish. We had to remove wallpaper which was really awful. We finally finished it up and had the young adults over for July 4. We bought a grill and had a fun cookout with about 20 people. Funny story to come in regards to this particular event...
5. My parents came down on the 4th and stayed through Sabbath. Dad saved us at least $1500 by removing three huge tree stumps. Leo and Trevan did a bunch of raking and yardwork to get the yard looking decent and my mom and I replanted some basil and a palm tree.
6. That same Sabbath, Trevan's dad, grandma and grandpa, and aunt and uncle came down so we had a great day.
7. Last weekend our friends Andre and Heather stayed with us. Andre preached an excellent sermon on Sabbath, we had a great potluck with the young adults, and got to hang out.
8. Went to Busch Gardens on Sunday with the young adult group from church and had a blast. Trevan forced me to go on this new roller coaster named “Griffon.” There is a 205 foot, 90 degree drop that they stop the cars right over for a few seconds. You basically dangle there starring straight down wondering what brand of stupidity possessed you to get on in the first place! Survived that and plan on going again on August 19th. Want to join us?
This whole list is an excuse for why my blogging has been very sparse, at best. Hope to do better in the coming weeks!
