Well, the whole purpose of this blog is supposed to be to keep friends and family in the loop of our lives now that we're so far away...but that doesn't work if I never post! So I told myself I would do it today, and of course the day has quickly slipped away. Oh well--no pictures and it'll be short~ but here's a brief update on our lives!
Michael is amazing to me. He's working at the bike shop, and positive as ever, he's making the best of every situation. He's made great friends with everyone there and has already had such an influence on many people. His friend Akeem even came to church with us today and had dinner with us afterwards! We are LOVING all of the missionary opportunities that surround us. We prayed that Heavenly Father would prepare us for the people we would meet here, and I truly have felt that blessing as we've interacted with new neighbors, friends, and investigators. The Church is true and it's such a blessing to share it!
I've loved having Michael around a bit more, and so relaxed this past month after taking the MCAT. We're anxiously awaiting receiving his score back on Tuesday.
As for me, I've been working online as much as possible, while still trying to get everything organized, unpacked and in order. We finally have the internet, our OWN washer and dryer (yahoo for doing laundry at our own house!), and I found a doctor. Those were HUGE blessings and answers to prayer this past week. Aside from those household type things, I've spent more and more moments staring at my growing belly and being AMAZED at the way this boy moves inside of me! I love it!
We've been soo thankful to have wonderful friends here; the Copes are amazing and so helpful. We also love our new ward members and are enjoying meeting so many new people all the time!
