Update On My Life

Hi Everyone :)

Hope all is well for everyone on this leap day :) So I am going to try and get better at this blogging thing and keep it more up to date and about what's going on in my life. As many of you know in June I will be experiencing a huge change. Like moving across the country huge!

This year in June I will be packing up and moving to Washington state. A big change for someone who never really thought much about living outside Lancaster county before 6 months ago. But God has plans for each one of us that are bigger than we can ever imagine sometimes and we just have to go with it.

The decision to move was not an easy one and it took about two months to make, but it is where I feel God is leading me and I couldn't do it without him. It's hard to imagine leaving here when I have been blessed with so much and I am so comfortable. Perhaps that's why God's telling me to go. I'm too comfortable.

I'll be living with my sister and brother-in-law, which will be exciting! I can't wait to spend time with them and getting to see my niece and nephew everyday will be awesome :) My boyfriend also lives out there and it will be nice to get to see him more often too :)

Many people ask if I plan to go to school out there and the answer is still no. I'll keep on working and see what God leads me to do. That doesn't mean school will never happen, just not at this point in my life.

Another thing I keep getting asked is how long do I plan to stay living out there. I honestly do not know. I'm going to give it some time and then see. It all depends on how long it takes to adjust and what all I'm involved in. I plan on getting involved with a church out there and volunteering in youth ministry and possibly children's ministry like I am here.  But we'll have to see because I don't want to fill my plate too full after just getting there.

This pretty much sums up what's been going on in my life. It's new and somewhat scary, but I think I'm ready and I'm excited :)
