Moments...

This month has been full of exciting moments, tough moments, relaxing moments, stressful moments and more. Let's start from the beginning.

Relaxing moments: Beginning of July was a wonderful relaxing time. I had finished worked,  Josh and I enjoyed some quiet time together, we got started on our yard and we went to Waterton National Park! A favorite place of ours and it was beautiful! God used that weekend to help us reconnect with Him and each other. We had sunshine, beautiful hiking, quiet moments, wonderful food and time with each other in all the beauty God created!!

After Waterton, I took some time to spend with my mom on some days which was wonderful! As well a few days after the run I spent some time with my sister, Janelle. It was wonderful to be with her and my niece and 2 nephews! Some quality time swinging, holding kitties, reading stories, cuddling with my youngest nephew and just enjoying some great visiting and girl time. 

Exciting moments: Run143 was another successful weekend!! Every year is unique and this year was unique in the fact that the family we supported was overseas with their son, we had bikers every day and the support was there in so many different ways!!
Another exciting moment that I think deserves a line to itself is I HAVE THREE NEW NEPHEWS!!!!!! As I am writing this my sister and her husband are in ethiopia with their 3 sons getting to know them and making memories!! So happy for them!!! 

Stressful and tough moments: We had another bump in our adoption journey and it was a stressful and tough time trying to be patient and getting answers. 7 weeks later and 5 phone calls and we finally did it! We got answers and the bump has been smoothed over! Now onto waiting. There is much more we will have to decide in a few months but for now we feel God calling us to wait, work on our marriage and continue to learn to live our life completely in him. Trusting him in every aspect and not even trying to do it on our own. It is so easy to say so these are those TOUGH moments that I struggle with on a daily basis. Giving up my control and letting God take my life and mold it, shape it how he wants it to be. 
So each day we continue to give up our journey to God, let Him take care of Baby Papaya and rest in his arms. It's a struggle but I know it is what we need to do. 

Be Blessed
