Life as we know it...

...is all about work work work right now. I work all the time and have very little time to do anything else. My work days are between 10-12 hours everyday, Monday through Friday. It's very exhausting. Hence there is really nothing interesting to blog about other than the Women's Retreat I just got back from.

The ladies at our church go on a retreat every year and this was the first time I was able to go! It was a blast!! We stayed at a very nice leadership center on a lake in the western part of the state, it was beautiful. Our theme was Extreme Makeover: New Attitude Edition. Talk about God's perfect timing... I definitely needed an attitude adjustment. haha. I got to meet several new ladies, now that our church is growing so fast I feel like I don't know as many people anymore so that was great. I really enjoyed hanging out with the older ladies too, they are so full of wisdom and encouragement! One of our key focuses was about our thoughts. What we think about, situations and other people really affects our witness for Christ and our relationships with other people. It was good information that I'm sure everyone benefited from.

"Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things."

- Philippians 4:8 (NIV)

Great times!! Now it's back to work tomorrow to start another week! The only thing that gets me though Mondays is knowing 24 will be on that night!! ;)

One Year Anniversary!!

Kyle and I are celebrating our one year anniversary today!!! It went by really fast! We've had a great year, I love being married! We decided to head to Myrtle Beach for the weekend... one of our favorite places! We stayed in a very nice, brand new hotel. We ate wayyyy too much food! We visited the NASCAR race park.... that was super fun, and Kyle only beat me one time ;) We also went to the Aquarium, shopped at Broadway (where I got some fudge, of course), and then went to Medieval Times. We had such a fun and relaxing time... it was a very much needed get away. It was kinda cold and cloudy but it didn't rain the whole time we were there.

I was very thankful that I felt better this weekend. I have been suffering with a massive sinus infection for almost 2 weeks now. Never had one in my life until now, it was awful!! I thought I was dying... I missed two days of work and finally went to the doc and got a z-pack... it helped my sinuses but then I got an ear infection. After not being able to hear out of my ear for two days, I went back to the doc on Friday and had to get amoxicillin for my ear. It was quite annoying. I don't wish that mess on anyone. What a pain. I was so glad I felt better over the weekend so I didn't ruin our trip!

Tonight we are going to watch our wedding video that neither of us has seen all the way through yet. I guess after a year it's about time we watched it! :)
