Austin and I have really been enjoying just being together. The days sitting at home are boring but then as soon as he walks through the door I get really excited and it just feels right to be his wife. I can't say that I have much to share today... This last weekend we went to the mall and just walked around and relaxed. Then we went to a store called Entertainmart. It's a buliding full of movies, video games and posters. I've never seen that many movies/video games in my life! Not even in a movie store. We bought some more movies and spent Sunday just relaxing and wathcing movies. All of our belongings are FINALLY supposed to get here tomorrow and it will be so nice to be able to put our home together! We found out today that Austin doesn't have to go to work because our stuff is getting here and that was a huge relief for me. I wasn't looking forward to doing that all by myself!!
Today I have again just hung out at the apartment, watched a movie, and texted people. But I was also able to talk to my Grammy. It was nice to catch up with her. She is keeping busy as usual and still ever-strong in her faith. I love calling her because she always reminds me to give time to the Lord. Today when we talked we talked about how we should really count our blessings! She told me that my stepmom is going in today to get some lumps checked out in one of her breasts, this is the second time. The first ones that they found were benign so it was ok, we are hoping the same for these ones. Grammy told me about how she had just had a Bible study about Job and all the things he went through. It really made her realize that God allows things to happen so that we grow closer to the Him. When all of those things happened to Job, instead of blaming God, he turned to Him in thanksgiving for the things he still had. Grammy and I both agreed that if all of that were to happen to us, we don't know if we would have still been able to rejoice. We are praying that this bout with what may be cancer, will bring my stepmom to the Lord. I hope that she seeks refuge in the Lord and doesn't turn her back on Him.
Austin and I are going to start church searching this next Sunday. Please pray that the Lord brings us to a Bible teaching church. I don't want to go somewhere religious, I want to go somewhere that I can learn what the Lord wants me to.
We visited with a couple last Friday. One of the guys that Austin works with invited us over to dinner with him and his wife. It was nice to be able to hang out with someone!! We went over and had pizza and watched an Army movie, of course. ;p They were really nice and I'm glad we have someone to hang out with and I hope that we are able to befriend many more people.
I guess I was able to share more than I thought I was! Please keep us in your prayers for safety and well being. Lots of Love!
