Sorry for the long break, but life has been a little nuts lately. Here's a little fill in on things that have been going on lately. I started working at the CDC (Child Developmental Center) in March. I absolutely LOVE the kids. I work with infants, 8 weeks-12 months old. It's a blast...most days, lol. It's amazing to watch how each child develops at a different rate and in a different way. The way they light up when they see you, it's honestly been pretty rewarding! :) I finally started going to school again last semester and I also took an online class this summer. So far all A's, so I'm happy about that. I am going to be taking 2 classes this next semseter. I think that's about all I can handle considering they will be online (I have always thought classes are much easier when they are face to face) with working and still having a life or a little bit or free time. I will be taking Child Psychology and New Mexico history. Sounds pretty interesting to me...sure hope so! I also just started reading, The Shack. So many people have told me how awesome it is, so I have started reading that. My PWOC (Protestant Women of the Chapel) is taking a break right now, we will start back up next month. I still meet with 5 lovely ladies at least once a month for Accountability. I feel so blessed to have such amazing sisters in Christ for my close friends! It's been a great experience and hopefully something I will be able to continue doing regardless of where the military takes us next. Anyway, back to PWOC...not sure what the bible study will be for this upcoming season just yet, but this summer we did: The Frazzled Female by Cindi Wood
I enjoyed it!!:) Now I'm looking for something that will really throw me in a bit deeper. I've got such a thirst for the Lord and I'm so excited to continue to grow more into the person he intended for me to be! I've decided that in the next 5 years I would like to have my degree, not only my degree, but to have a REAL job, a career, and I would love to go on a mission trip to a 3rd world country.
Other than that, the only other thing I can really think of is I had a birthday in June...I'm getting OLD! haha.
Jesse has had a small change with work. He enjoys it more than he did, so I'm happy about that! He is eating healthy and staying fit...I'm trying to do the same. We've both been doing a lot of running. Another something I would like to do at some point, a marathon, or at least a half-marathon! :) Jesse and I both got new cars. Not "new" new, but new to us.
We are going to be taking a cruise in September. We are sooo excited. We will be going to Denmark, Russia, Sweden, Finland, & Estonia. We'll be sure to take lots of pictures!
I'll post a few pictures from work and my birthday and any other good ones I can come across that have been taken recently.
