My Wandering Mind

Today I find my mind wandering and every time I am thinking of how God has taken care of us.Even though sometimes it is easy to start stressing and worrying it isjut as simple to turn it over to God and know that He will take care of everything. This week one of our old teens came back to church-he had moved about a year ago and just moved back about two weeks ago. David and I were really worried that he had changed and would be really hard to reach but he really hasn't changed that much and it is so very good to see him and have him back in church. I don't know how many we will have going to camp this year but if it goes like we hope it could be our biggest number yet! I am really looking forward to what God has in store for this year and how we will see Him work not only in our life but of those around us.

God is Always Good

Well things are still going crazy! I had a wonderful baby shower this last Saturday and it turned out really good. I felt really bad because people started leaving while I was opening gifts but I didn't know what else to do! Alyssa got to be here for it not only as my sister but as a representative of the family which was really nice. It was really good to have Jerrad, Alyssa and Aspen here! I miss being around them! It has taken me two days to go through everything and get it organized but I think I have finally done it. I kind of wish that I could do an open house for the ladies of the church just so they can see Kaitlin's room and how everything is set up and the way it looks but I don't think I could handle the stress right now. I haven't been working at all lately (they haven't called in four weeks!) but at the same time it doesn't take alot to wear me out so I am thankful. It is just really hard because we are going to Cruces every other week and in three weeks it will be every week which makes it really tight on money! That also brings up the fact that I am 32 weeks almost 33!!! How crazy is that?!? I have some people who say I look really good and they think I am doing really good on weight and in the same day I could have people tell me they hope I don't get very much bigger!! The worst part of pregnancy...everyone scrutinizing how you look =( Oh well even though there are times I feel extremely huge I think I am doing pretty good. David is going to get busier and busier, not only has he been running track practice but this year they gave him his own jacket and are asking if he is going on the bus with them!!! He is out there in the community and we are getting closer and closer to seeing people come to church because of it! and it's not from us bugging people to come it totally through our testimony and the love we put into the community. Sometimes it gets discouraging especially when people think we are wasting our time but I know it will be worth it in the end. God has been good to us in so many ways. Just this last week we got a van-we have been looking for a vehicle since David had the accident but we wanted what God wanted for us. When we went to Cruces for my appt. we stopped by a dealership just to browse not intending to buy but look we did and God worked everything out! I now have the van of my dreams!! It is perfect for us and there is no doubt in my mind that it is what God has for us because he really did work it all out in his timing!!! I am so thankful that even when we get tired and worn out God is there to pick us up and guide us through.

Getting Even More Excited

Things have been pretty busy but they are about to get alot busier!! We will be going out of town every week for the next month! We finally get to go to a birthing class and then of course all of my appoinments and then we have track meets (although I think David is going to ask if he can go on the bus this year so i don't have to travel so much). I am soo excited about my baby shower coming up. It sounds as if there will be alot of ladies coming so there will b tons of fun and fellowship besides the fact that Esther is really good at planning things like this so I know it will be good. The other thing is that Jerrad, Alyssa and Aspen are going to be here for that weekend so I will get to have family here for it and spend time with all of them (who i miss so very much!). Anywho I have to go make supper but I am excited to get one more step closer to my little girl being here and being ready for her coming. Oh yeah!! I got to decorate the church this week and I think t is two o fthe biggest arrangements I have ever made and then I am working on Kaitlin's name banner and it is turning out really good and I am excited about all that has been accomplished =) Alright time for supper =)
