New Post

Ok, ok, I know. It's been like two months since I've had a new blog post. I am fully aware of this and my only response to that is that my life is so full of other stuff I don't have time for blog posts...or I'm just a lazy blogger (if I can even call myself a blogger).

Here's the update to get caught up:

1. My brother got married on June 14th to the best sister-in-law I could ever ask for. The wedding was beautiful and funny side story, it was a beach wedding and it was scheduled to rain that day. The rain totally held out for the ceremony, but as soon as everyone went inside for the reception it started to downpour harder than I think I've ever seen in CT. Praise God for holding out the weather for a beautiful wedding.

2. I hit a dog on June 23rd. It was the most traumatic experience I've had driving or riding in a car. There was nothing I could've done, so it wasn't my fault, but I still felt horrible. I stopped the car right after it happened and ran over to the dog who had managed to pull himself off of the busy road. He wagged his tail at me and licked my hand which made me feel better and worse at the same time. Joe was with me in the car and very supportive. The owners called about half an hour after we got back on the road and told me the dog didn't make it. Also, our car was in the shop for two weeks to be fixed.

3. When I hit the dog, I was on my way to KidStuf auditions at Northpoint Church. I wouldn't have gone if Joe hadn't been in the car with me, but he drove the rest of the way and held my hand and helped me feel better. He even brought the car to a Honda dealership to be looked at while I was in the auditions and then walked two miles to meet up with me. We got a ride home from a friend.
The audition I think went pretty good considering the circumstances. I had a great scene partner and the people at the audition were very nice. They didn't end up having a role for me, but the whole experience was fun and I'm excited I was even considered.

4. Joe is working at Northpoint a lot now, which is very exciting for him. He loves being a part of the team up there and loves the work that he does there. I'm very proud of him for working so hard at Northpoint and on all of the other projects he has going on.

5. I'm enjoying my work as well. Southside has been great and exciting because there is so much going on right now. There is a lot of construction happening on the new wing they're building here. Everyday more is done with the construction and it's cool to see the church grow so fast. I enjoy my job and I'm learning new things everyday which is also very exciting. The more I learn, the better I get (at least that's my hope).

That's about it in my life that's new and crazy. I hope I post more frequently, but who knows. If you're reading this blog thanks for sticking around, even when I don't post for a while!
