Here We Go!!!

Alright so I have FINALLY ventured into the blog world... I have spent quite some time over the last year following a few blogs, and when I began finding myself "composing" my own blogs in my head a few months ago I decided I should probably start one up. :) There are a few things that I hope this blog accomplishes.

First, I hope it allows me an opportunity to see God at work in my life. I used to be very faithful with journaling during my college years and was so amazed to see all the things God was teaching me from what I was reading and the circumstances I was dealing with. I miss having something tangible to read back through to see how great His works truly are. I have attempted multiple times since college to pick this hobby back up but have failed at being successful. I hope blogging might "stick" since it is something new and has some sort of accountability with knowing others are reading.

Second, I have a new joy in my life who is so unbearably cute I couldn't stand to keep him all to myself.... :)





Eli will be 8 months old next week and has been SUCH a joy to love on. He is changing so much that I want to lock all these memories away somewhere to look back on down the road.







Finally, we live far away from most of our family and friends and they are missing us tremendously and want a way to keep up with what is going on in our lives. My family all live in Arkansas and Marc's family are all in Illinois. Skype has been a huge help with staying in touch, but there is only so much Marc and I can do to keep a 8 month old baby entertained while Skyping. :) So, hopefully our families (especially Eli's grandmothers) will appreciate this blog and updated photos of our life here in Kansas.

Well, there it is. I hope that you come along for the journey!
