Newlyweds

Mike and I have been married a grand total of 51 days or almost two months. It's been a wonderful couple of months. We have filled the days with our two week mountain honeymoon, moving everything into our new apartment, having our Spokane reception, redecorating to fit both of our stuff in one place, lots of working and we've even attended three weddings! It seems like life has gone by so fast since June 1st.

This week was Mike's first VBS since being on staff at Southside. He's in charge of the curriculum for Kindergarten - 6th grade. This week he was absolutely incredible! He, along with his coworkers, pulled of an amazing VBS! There were over 1,000 people on campus this year. It was amazing to see all the different ages of kids running around our church and the park across the street. Everything was so perfectly organized. And from an outsiders prospective, it seemed to have gone off without a hitch!

Tonight is our block party. Mike has been put in charge of that. For months I've heard about how awesome this night is going to be! There's blow up castles, a dunk tank, lots of free games and tons of fun to be had! He's done yet again what he does best! He's taken a lot of different resources and turned it into a fabulous party! It's T-minus two hours and I know it's going to be pulled off fabulously! He's always been so great at pulling off events like this. (Last year he was in charge of Moody's Fall Festival.)

Currently I'm sitting in the office of the family I nanny for. Little Olivia (cutest 1 1/2 year old you'll ever meet) is sleeping. We've spent our mornings this week going to VBS. She's been so wonderful with all the new people. I've always wondered what Olivia would be like in a room full of babies her own age. This week she showed me she's a champ! There are a couple of things she's not used to... but overall, she's still just a wonderful child. Today she was even so tired that she fell asleep during the end. There were lots of kids screaming and chanting around her while doing the songs and she still started to doze off on my shoulder. Olivia isn't really a snuggler so it's really cute when we get those little moments together.

Well, Olivia should be up soon and then it's off to the party! We'll see you soon :)
