Fall

Happy Halloween Everyone! As promised, here are some pictures of what we've been up to this fall!

IUP homecoming, Phantom Fright Night at Kennywood - a first for us, and it was totally a blast! And finally our tradition of picking a pumpkin at Reager's farm in Indiana, PA. (which we still have yet to carve). There are many more pictures on facebook that you can take a look at if you wish.

I can't believe that we're already heading into November! How exciting! I'll do my best to be a little more regular at posting. As for now, to snuggle up with a warm blanket and get through this rainy day.

It's been a while...

God' been really working on my heart lately. I was having some inner spiritual battles about who knows what's best for my life - me or God. God always wins, and it's a good thing or I'd have my life driven right into the ground. I've applied for several research positions, but I haven't heard anything - and most likely won't as they all require research experience, which I do not have. But I've come to terms with the fact that this is temporary, and I'm here at St. Margaret's for a reason. God will see me through this time in my life - and I'm sure there will be bigger better things in the future, and even if there aren't, God is in control... and I can find comfort in that.

Josh graduates law school in just one short month! November 30th is his last day at the immigration law firm, and then it's on to Bar prep! I'm excited for him. I'm sure he'll do well, and he's very much looking forward to getting a job and helping to support our small "family". He's been my strength during this season of life, and I'm so thankful that he's here with me. I can't imagine trying to deal with my job if he was all the way in New Hampshire. God comes to the rescue once again.

So what's on the horizon for us now? Well, house hunting for one. We've realized that we could be paying about the same amount for rent/mortgage and utilities but having a place of our own and building equity. I've talked to our pastor about getting involved with worship team at church. Not sure how that will work out, but at least it's a start. I'm going to do my best that I can at work for the time being. November 21st will be my 6 month mark, and then I'm half-way to when I can transfer within UPMC. I'm not sure that I will transfer at this point, however it is nice to know that the option is out there. I have lots of fun pictures to post, but that's for next time. This post is just to let y'all know I haven't fallen off the face of the planet. =]

Thanks for reading.
