Transitions

Right now my life is in a big transition state. Wedding, seeking a job change, not knowing where to live, and asking myself where will I be a year from now? Only God knows and I know he is grasping me in his hands right now, which calms me down. Yes I admit, I have been getting a little stressed out  lately since so many changes are about to head my way. Job hunting has been a pain but you have to start somewhere. I have been applying all over the world basically, and let me tell you that those teacher applications take forever!!! Aside from that, the wedding is coming soon and I only have 3 months! Time sure does fly. Planning a wedding by yourself is not the easiest, but I am getting the hang of it. I learned not to order an invitation for every person due to the fact that most couples live in the same house:) That was my blonde moment.:) Pretty much everything is done except for the cake and flowers. Believe me, I will get those done even if I do procrastinate:).   I am very excited about getting married for one thing. Brock and I have been through many struggles and hard times (Well I have put him through a lot of hard times to say the least). I believe every moment I have spent with him has been worth it and I am so blessed God has put him in my life. He is the one that will surely get me to heaven one day and I think about that everyday. Okay, writing this is making myself shed some tears so I need to stop.:) All I can say is Brock "I love you!"

Spring Break has come and gone:)

So spring break has finally come to an end. Of course I am sad, but not for long because summer is almost here! I can not wait to head to the lake and tan (oh wait I will just burn like lobster). This past week has been pretty amazing to say the least. I had the chance to provide art activities for underprivileged children at the Salvation Army camp in Midlothian. The camp itself is very pretty for Texas and quite peaceful. My art activities were held in a chapel with windows covering most of the walls which created a beautiful view of the lake. This year the kids were so wonderful and I really did not have any problems! They all got so excited when I let them play with clay after their project which made me think not to take so many things for granted. Our projects included: making cowboy boots using oil pastel on old black dividers, coloring various patterns on manila paper to make Native American headbands, and of course using sidewalk chalk when the weather was warm enough. It was a long drive out there but it was worth the experience!

Well I back to my blog! Today I am going to Sweetwater for the rattlesnake roundup! I mean who doesn't want to eat rattlesnake meat and buy a snake skin wallet? This festival takes place every March and lasts for four days with a carnival, dancing, parade, food, hunting, and so much more all for the snakes! Except the snakes do not get to have fun, instead they go to Jesus:) 

This weekend will mean a lot because my sweet little niece, Neve, is going with us to share the experience! My whole family is so happy that she finally here to stay in Texas!
