The 12 days of Casey

So Casey's birthday is next weekend and I think I am more excited about him turning 30 than he is. He really doesn't care how old he is, and neither do I but I just love birthdays!

I was trying to be this wonderful wife and do the 30 days of Casey.....well when that time arrived I didn't have anything planned. So then I thought okay I'll do the 15 days of Casey....yep you guessed it, that didn't work either. I then thought ok I will do 12 days of Casey....this has worked. Yesterday was the 1st day of this great event and he still has no clue as to what i am doing. His present yesterday was a photo that I had made for him of Briley so that he can put it in his office....super cute! Today's present was a new briefcase in the Broncho colors, he really liked it. I have yet to get him something for tomorrow but one of my ideas is to have a BBQ dinner for him so I might just do that tomorrow.

I wish I was more creative, but this is really hard.

RE: New Day

Well, I just got back from my 1st interview with LifeChurch.TV. I am really embarrassed right now, b/c I got so nervous that my chest and neck got all red and blotchy. I know that it was noticeable, so don't think that the other people couldn't see it, b/c they could! Oh well, what is done is done. Like i said I don't think that I am quite qualified for the position, but I had to try and hopefully they will take a chance on me too. I think it would be a blast to work there everyone seems so down to earth and accepting. We will see and I will continue to pray that God will show me the way to the right job.

New Day

So, I am going to LifeChurch.TV to have my 1st interview with the Finance Director. I have applied for a job and I am really nervous about the interview process. I also am a little nervous about the whole thing. I feel like the City has put a lot of time and energy into me, and likewise with myself. I guess you could say that I am loyal to what I am committed to do. I however I think that God has put this position in my life for a reason. It is just out of my reach, of being confident in whether I would be able to do it, but I know with all my heart that I would give it my all and beyond.

I leave for the interview in 10 minutes so, I'll update in a bit.

Friends

So for the past year now Casey and I have been searching for a Life Group to attend. We thought, heck this shouldn't be so hard, since we fell in love with the only one we tried in Tulsa. We were spoiled I guess, Derrick and Rachel were awesome leaders and we loved every minute of life with them.
So when we moved back to Edmond, we started searching again. We had a lot of people invite us to their group, the only problem was....they were our friends. We really wanted something that was new and people that didn't know us. We tried one group and it was a bomb, we left there thinking what in the world was that. We were the only ones talking, like we were the leaders. It was just really awkward. Then all of the sudden we found 2 LG's to try out. The first one was with a group of people our age and we see them at church all the time, we all have kids around the same age. That meeting was great, we felt that we clicked really well with them and the leaders are amazing Christians. The second group was with people that are older than us. We thought no big deal, we are mature enough to hang out with these thirtysomethings.....the meeting went well, but we felt a little behind with them. They have all been in a group for a long time so they already had this really strong bond, and that's hard to squeeze into.
So, you guessed it we went with the 1st group. I love it, I feel bad for Casey he has only made one meeting and one men's breakfast, all the other times he's been working. I have been going to the LG by myself and I don't feel weird at all. Normally I would feel very insecure and not go, but I feel at such ease with them that I don't even care. God has been working on me in that department for a long time....it's finally paying off. I am ready to really get to know these wonderful people and to have other friends to hang out with instead of just my parents. I pray that God continues to develop these relationships and that he continues to mature my heart. God is Good! All the Time!
