Applesauce!

Phew! My facebook status this morning listed a great many things that I hoped to accomplish today... one of them in particular took a quite a bit more time than I anticipated, but was enjoyable. Just before lunch today Nathan and I set about to make applesauce. We cooked the apples and Nathan graciously "squished them" (for lack of a better description). After which... I added the necessary ingredients and plopped in jars. The last of the jars are about to be processed. Just wish I would have taken pics...

Changes in life

Wow... I realized just now that it's been May since my last post! I can't believe it! So much has gone on in that time. I finished up the semester at SCA and left with many mixed emotions. Leaving many friends behind I set off for home on July 5. What a joy to be reunited with my family though!

Since my arrival back in the States I feel as if I've constantly been on the go. Home for a couple days to a week and then gone again. The Lord has given opportunity to visit many friends and family as well as share in a couple of churches that supported me during my time in Chile.

My family and I will be moving at the end of this month to Wayne, Nebraska. The main purpose for this is to be closer to my Grandparents. So we are in the midst of packing and sorting and wondering why we have so much stuff! Though I haven't been around a lot during my family's stay here in Sheridan, I have come to love it and will miss being here. I am however excited to be closer to my Grandparents again.

Many have asked me what I am doing now, or what my plans are... I can say without a shadow of a doubt... I don't know :) Beyond today, I don't know what the Lord has. I continue to pray that the Lord would give direction. He has just impressed upon my heart the need to be faithful to what I know to do now. (Hopefully I'm back to updating regularly and can answer this question sometime again in the near future :)
