Time flies..

I can't believe July is almost over. This summer feels like it's been a whirlwind and we haven't quite touched ground yet. We are ready for some routine and some steady activity. Tomorrow will be a first step towards that goal.. the BAR is here! Jacob takes it tomorrow and Thursday for 6.5 hours each day. He's ready, but nervous. Pray for him if you think of it in the next 2 days. Other than that, we're still searching for a church. It's a lot harder than we thought. We both forgot how many churches there are down here to choose from. We know what we're looking for, but it's just taking a lot longer to find it than we thought. We both feel a little "homesick" for Minnesota this week as we continue to settle here. It's different than we expected to be back home. A big reason is that we're back here, but we're not where we were or doing what we were doing when we were here last. I never imagined it would be such a huge feeling of starting over in a familiar place. This weekend we are going to the Wesley picnic. It will be the first time we've been back to Cookeville or Tech as married people! It will be exciting to go back to the place we met, surrounded by the people we knew then. We're still waiting on jobs, but the Lord is bigger than our worries and fears. Next week Jacob digs into the job search full blast. Schools start in 2 weeks so there's still some time for me to hear something. We shall see!

Happy Anniversary!




That's right, today is our 2 year anniversary! It's gone by fast but we both agree they have been the best 2 years of our lives. We're going to celebrate at P.F. Changs tonight- one of our favorite restaurants. Other than that, Jacob is studying all day... we're on the countdown! Bar Exam = 16 days! Our puppy is growing so fast. Klondike weighs almost 8 pounds, he's 3.5 months old and already learned to sit, stay, come, and go outside to do his business. He's precious. :)
