Interesting road...

It has been a long, long time since I have posted on here. I have felt pretty convicted to limit the time I spend doing things that hold little value (in any eternal sense). Although, I do think keeping a photo journal is so valuable to a family and the generations who will follow. In that respect, I will continue posting here for as long as blogger will hold my pictures and memories. After which, I think I would like to publish everything I have collected to keep forever for our children, and the grandchildren I may have one day.
As you know if you are reading this, we have been relocated to a special town in VA. We are loving it and feeling very specifically led to be here. Our goal while here is to become as emersed as we can be in our family and branch out as far as God intends with our friendships. We have been amazingly and beautifully blessed to be connected to some amazing friends here already. We can so clearly see God's hand in everything we do. Matt and I are commited to seeking and following the plan He has laid out for us. So far, we have found a wonderful church to serve with and our membership will be *official* June 14th, which we are so excited about. Just to be able to publicly declare our new relationship and commitment to the church is very thrilling on the inside! We look forward to raising and teaching our children here. Please keep us in your prayers if you would as we begin yet another new chapter.
If you are reading this, you are likely close family and friends. Please know we hold you in our prayers and are thankful for you.
I promise more pictures of the children as soon as I have time to clear out some space on blogger!

Let Him dwell within me, ALL of my days. He is my and the only source of real JOY! The world is a liar. Only YOU can decide who you want to be, your identity is either in the world or in Jesus. If it's in Jesus then you are perfect because He is perfect. He atoned for all of our real imperfections. If sin leads to death, why do we chase it? Why do we chase the grave instead of His grace? Me too, it's a daily surrender of my desire for the world. Daily, hourly, minutely. The pull is intense and the struggle is real. Literally. No matter what happens to me, you know your mother's heart chases after Jesus Christ Himself. It is not the path of least resistance. On the contrary. I live my life for Him and through Him because I have already experienced the contrary. It was a state of darkness and death. Absence of light and of love. Of course I want to spare you the suffering of that course but sometimes we must walk through that mire to appreciate Him as he washes it off of us s...
