The Sweetest Place on Earth

Nate and I spent 4 blissful days (after two days off from school) in Hershey Pennsylvania for the Family Life Weekend to Remember marriage conference. It was an incredible weekend spent together learning how to do this who marriage thing a little better. We had an encouraging time together and loved being away from everything and everyone. Nate and I talked about our plans to write a book and began the brainstorming process in this new adventure. I experienced God in a whole new way at this conference and was so excited to return home and start living out what we learned.



Then came real life. We got home to reality-to bills, to work, to family drama. Our mountain top experience that had brought us so close together was crashing down around us, it was quite evident satan was well at work in our lives. I am constantly reminded of the need to stay in the Word, to constantly walk faithful with Jesus Christ so that I can be the kind of woman God created me to be....especially to Nate.

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!

I cannot begin to describe the giddy, childlike excitement i am feeling at the present moment as the threat of a huge winter storm approaches us. I cannot wait to finish this work day and get home to my hubby. I am praying we get snowed in for days, but the reality is that it will probably just be tomorrow:)

Yesterday, I spent the morning with my girl Emily. We had lots of fun together! I was reminded of God's continued faithfulness in my life as He surrounds me with quality women to encourage me. Emily is such an awesome person and listens because she cares. I can tell her anything and I can be myself, it's a good feeling:) Plus, she has the two cutest kids in the world and when I hang out with her I get the chance to love on her girlies:)

Nate and I are headed to Hershey this weekend to the Weekend to Remember Marriage Conference. We are beyond excited. We have 4 whole days off together away from our crazy hectic lives.

BRING ON THE SNOW:)
