OHIO

The day has arrived! To most people a trip to Ohio is not the biggest vacation to talk about or fill up my face book stat page with, but this will be our very first family vacation! 

I just love a good road trip, there's nothing like it! I guess it first started back when my parents took me on road trips - they were the best, full of adventure! As I got older my sister and I took road trips ourselves to Myrtle Beach and Chicago, we made the best memories! Today, we take Zach on his very first road trip and I hope it is one of many!

The trip will take about 7 hours without stopping and we will be around the Akron Ohio area visiting Bruce's Aunt and Uncle. There is a birthday planned on Saturday for one of the cousins who is turning 3 and I know Zach will have a blast! We return on Sunday, late. 

Keep us in your prayers and I will return with lots of great times to share - I am sure. :)

Pleased

I am so pleased  to blog and it be filled with happy emotions and a state of true joy! This past month has brought some changes and I am surprised to say, life is great! It is through the strength of my Father alone. I am a firm believer of the different seasons in our Christian walk, I believe at times we stay in a season longer than we should, because we are comfortable or it would be harder to allow the Lord to move us into another one, but I have let go and moved in to a different season and things are drastically different, but great!

As some of you know I have had a calling on my life to work with teens since I was 13 and Bruce and I are now very active in our church's youth group, The Source and it is so fulfilling, words just cannot describe! I am just 1 month away from starting to teach my drama class again, Zach starts pre-school and Bruce and I will have been married for 7 years come November. I have missed running so badly, but in this heat I just can't, so I am dying for September to come! No, life isn't perfect, but it won't be until we reach heaven, so I choose joy, which is NOT an emotion or something you FEEL, but a choice!  

Most importantly I am so thankful for the UNMOVABLE people in my life, no matter what happens they bring the best out of me and that is what I hold so dear to me! 

Love you all!!!

Can you see me?
