Rafting the Payette






A couple of weeks ago, my mom, Luke and I flew to Idaho to spend a week with my sister.  One of our first adventures was taking a rafting trip down the Payette River.  It is beyond beautiful!  Luke had so much fun.  He's such a little dare devil.  He laughed and begged for more rapids.  It was such a fun family day!!!

Big blessings and changes...

I wanted to remember this day.  I am so emotional (with hormones like crazy) so my mind is a bit scattered.

I have been feeling a bit impatient in life.  Justin and I have had all these huge dreams/goals and I felt like we were in a stand still with them.  Playing a bit of a waiting game.  We laid them at the feet of our Lord, and he taught us a lot about patience.  These past few weeks, thought, God has blessed us with some of our hearts desires and more.


First, Justin just got a huge promotion at work!!!  He has gone from the Unit Supervisor of shipping/receiving at Texas Tech Health Sciences Center to now the Executive to the President of the Health Sciences Center.  Its HUGE.  I am so proud of him, my heart is a bit overwhelmed.  At 28 years old, he will be working with the top people at the University.  He is so unbelievably smart, kind, patient and has a great reputation with Tech already.  I couldn't even be more proud of him.  And the opportunities this job will open up for him and our family.  What a blessing!

We are entering into our 6th week of pregnancy.  Things are going good.  My previous pregnancies, I was already in the hospital and hooked up to IV's at this point.  Not this one!  I can eat. I have a big appetite.  I have tons of energy.  It almost scares me.  I go weekly to get blood work done and I keep being nervous they are going to say something is wrong with my pregnancy.  It's as if its almost too good to be true?  But my blood work has been coming back wonderful.  Praise the Lord!  We get our first sonogram at the end of our 7 weeks, July 20.  They will be checking for multiple babies, since we were on fertility shots, medicine, etc.  But, I will be happy with whatever blessing the good Lord offers.  I am only vomitting 1 or 2 times usually between 1-4am.  How weird is that??  But, then I go right back to sleep.  I feel so lucky to be at home during the day because I do have the opportunity to rest and catch back up on sleep I lost during the night.  It's been wonderful!
