Blogging fail

I have been a total flake when it comes to blogging consistently. When I started this blog I originally wanted to blog 2 times a week! It's crazy that it's been months since my last real blog, but I guess I don't want to fake it. I don't want to write a blog when I feel like the Lord hasn't moved my heart because then this blog would be more about me and less about what the Lord has been teaching me. That being said, here goes a small life update.

If you saw my last blog you would have seen my sister getting married. Actually, in the particular picture my dad was giving her away, but you know what I mean. The wedding was last Saturday and the ceremony was beautiful, I was amazed at how my sister and Cheyne completely stayed true to their values. If anyone would have replicated their wedding it would have been tacky but because it was Stephanie & Cheyne, it was perfect. Hopefully you can't tell in any of the pictures taken, but the entire time I was on the verge of losing it because of all the joy in my heart. Simply beautiful.

Moving on, school has started! I love my Social Work classes. I hate my 3 hour blocks of class. No, but really, since my classes are scheduled for me and only offered at one time every SW class is once a week so I literally have class for 7 hours in a row on Tuesdays and then work. Not that I'm complaining because my classes are filled with hypothetical situations and mock cases which are a blast, but it is definitely draining.


The Lord continues to provide in my life. I think I am starting to realize I don't need a lot of friends to be happy. I think I just need a few friends I can call community, my family and the Lord. (Sorry to continue talking about this) Due to the wedding a lot of my family came in from out of town and I was constantly reminded how blessed I am to have such a huge and loving family. These people truly care about me and would be here in a minute if I needed help.

I have recently discovered my love for writing letters. Not facebook messages or emails, actual handwritten letters that you mail...with a stamp. That's all I am going to say about that for now.

That's all I want to blog about for now. Usually when I blog it sparks something inside that forces me to blog 3 more times in the next 24 hours and maybe I'll have something insightful to say. We'll see.
