Hi. I'm Whitney. It's been a while...

Wowser. It is now the end of September and I haven’t blogged at all. My sweet friend Kaylie keeps reminding me that it is time for an update… (Love you Kaylie!) So, basically here’s what’s up….

church. work. church. women’s ministry. youth. church. work. Bible study. Football. LOST. church. Running club. church. friends. church.

Over Labor Day we went to see Nate’s grandparents. It was a great trip! We had never been just the two of us, so we were able to get in a lot of great one on one time with Mamaw and Papaw.

We spent a lot of time in the car in those three days. We drove down there and the next day we drove around Whitney, TX for a while. And then Nate’s aunt went into the hospital so we went to see her in Ft. Worth… got caught in traffic for, umm, ever. Basically we were in the car for like 20 hrs in a 3 day period. It was fun though.

Nate and I both wish that we lived closer to these precious people. It was hard to leave them and we are already looking forward to Thanksgiving…. won’t be too long!

After our little mini vacation, we have been super busy at church. Since we are without a pastor right now, Nate has been doing a ton of extra stuff…. He has always had a heart for the entire church, and has always gone above and beyond for the church (as a whole and not just the youth). Lately, that has gone to the extreme and he is planning churchwide outreaches, events, bible studies and other things, on top of media and youth. And as for me, my right hand has been cut off here in the church office. Kerri had knee surgery and left me here for 6 weeks by myself. I’m doing fine, and everything is good… It just kinda seems like Nate and I are running the show.

I mean we basically live here because we work here all day from 8-5 and then we also have church on Sunday night, Bible study on Monday night, outreach on Tuesday night, and collide on Wednesday night. Then we have running club (at the church) on Saturday mornings. That’s right people… We only have Friday to ourselves…. And, even then we end up at a church function, or high school football game.

I thought that life would settle down and we would feel relaxed after summer stuff ended and school started…. that hasn’t happened yet. Dare I say… It’s. Even. Crazier. Nate and I live for the weekend…. But doesn’t everyone that works?

I did manage to find some time to get a good hair cut… Got like 6 inches cut off and two people noticed. That’s how it goes every time I think it's way dramatic… Oh well.
