The Weekend Update.

Good times were had by all last weekend.
Vania is here visiting and it's been like a breath of fresh air having her around again. I sure do miss her.
We did lots of fun stuff....went to the zoo, went to the movies (Oceans 13 is great by the way), went to an art festival and just hung out and had lots of laughs....along with a few irish car bombs (compliments of steve) along the way.

It's been awhile since I've laughed as much as I did this past weekend. Last night we were BBQing at Dale & Missy's and I realized that I had 4 of my 5 bridesmaids all with me there (too bad sara was missing). It was great! The last time I had so many of my close friends all there with me was at my wedding and most likely I will never have all my friends that live across the country with me like that again. So....I try to enjoy every minute that I can when I have friends come to town to visit. Their visits are too far in between.
Also having Vania here has made me miss Texas....A LOT! I realized yesterday that I've now lived in St. Louis for the same amount of time that I lived in Texas. Still somehow it has never really felt like home like Texas did though. I hope and pray that someday God would call me back to YWAM and Texas. That is the last time I remember feeling the most alive.
I"m not trying to be all down or anything....my life is good and I really don't have much room to complain. Maybe I just live in the past too much too, but I can't help but feel like I'm missing out now when I'm around my friends that were with me through that wonderful time period in my life and are still living the way I thought I would be living forever.

Anyway....enough about that. I know that God has good plans for my life and I'm not exactly sure what they are now but I have learned to trust Him every step of the way. If I wouldnt' have left that "great" life and moved to St. Louis I would have never even met Steve in the first place and HE truly is one of the greatest gifts I have ever received.


So anyway.....it was a good weekend! I enjoyed myself and I needed some good fun. Now it's back to the daily grind.....
