It's that Time Again!

So I know when I moved to Natomas over a year ago I said that was the last time I was going to move before getting married, but that obviously didn't end up being true (already explained how that fell through). But this time I mean it! I've lived with my parents for about 6 months, and I have been ready to move out for a while now. So I've been praying for God to provide me with a godly roommate in a safe neighborhood, and He did!

I put my feelers out to some friends, including Kelly (Marc's cousin - who set us up). Turns out less than 2 weeks prior to that, her friend (my future roommate) reached out to her needing a roommate. So Kelly called her and asked her if she was still looking for a roommate, and she happened to call her right as she was praying for a roommate! I know that was confusing, but it was such a trip when I heard that. Christy is a children's minister at an AG church and so bubbly and sweet. Marc and I went and met her, and the house is beautiful. It's 3 bedroom, 1 story, with a gorgeous backyard (still looking for a 3rd roommate). There's wood floors, space for storage in the garage, etc. It's everything I've prayed for and it's even closer to Marc! The house is in Elk Grove, on a road that turns into the same road where I work. Even though I will be farther from my church (now making my drive about an hour and a half), I know this is the right choice for me. And my pastor has worked with me so that I am no only required to be there once a week.

My move in date is March 2nd, and I'm so excited. OH! and another crazy fact is that the owners/renters of the house are Marc's cousins! Ted (the husband) is Kelly's brother, who happens to be close friends with my pastor. I think the world is shrinking haha

Anyway, I have to pack my life up once again under 2 weeks so I'm a tad stressed out, but so ready for this change and new season. I'm trusting God to provide for me, and I have a peace about this place. Where I last lived, my roommates took advantage of me and it was like living in a nightmare. So I've been much more cautious this time around with who I chose as a roommate. It's as if God picked her out! I'm so blessed :)

Shelly's Wedding!

Shelly and Frank got married this past weekend, and I was honored to be a bridesmaid :) Shelly is my sister-in-law's sister. She calls me her sister-in-love ;) We went to Bethany together and have remained close throughout the years. She has been through so much and has remained faithful to God and her calling. She has the biggest heart and sweetest temperament. If anyone deserves happiness, it's her. I've never seen her look so beautiful as on her wedding day. She was glowing :) Marc came as well and sat with my family. I felt bad that I didn't get to visit with him much, but it meant the world to me that he was there! I've included pictures from her bridal shower/rehearsal dinner/ and wedding!

(I used the tissue paper and ribbons from her bridal shower
and made a bouquet to use for the rehearsal! Stephanie's idea)
