Life Lately: October 2019

WOW! Life has been so good lately, and I am feeling so blessed!

I am just finishing up my first quarter of classes and working on finals right now. I am so excited to finally be done with school. I am in my senior year at Northwest University, and I just applied for graduation! It is starting to get so real and I am so stoked! Cannot wait to be done with school forever! My husband graduated a year ago with the same major so we took all the same classes. It has been really nice because he has been so helpful to me with getting all my work done. He helps me actually understand whats going on. I am taking online classes and sometimes I have a hard time understanding what’s going on, so he has been the best with helping me understand and essentially teaching me everything! He’s the greatest.

We have been married for almost 4 months now, and I am telling you that marriage is the best! The first month or so was difficult because we had to learn what it was like to live together and do life together, and that was such a challenge. We come from such different families, and just trying to figure out the best way to show each other love was hard. But things are getting a lot better, and we understand each other so much better and we are just having so much fun. I love being married!

Also, Kyle and I are both now licensed ministers in the Assemblies of God, so we are officially pastors! It has been so cool going through this journey and getting to learn so many new things. Kyle has been a youth pastor at our church for a year now, and I am serving as an assistant pastor, but we both just received our official credentials this week. This is such a huge step for us both and I am just so excited to see how God is going to use both of us through all of this. It is so exciting! Kyle also just started a second job as a personal trainer at his gym and I am so proud of him! This is something he has been working towards for years, so it is so cool to see him finally getting to do what he loves. Just so proud!

Also, in other news, I cut my hair again. I had bangs for the last year or so, and after my wedding I started trying to grow them out. So for the last few months I’ve been wearing a lot of hair clips and trying to tuck them behind my ears but they just weren’t long enough. Probably another month or so and I could have tucked them behind my ears, but I got so tired of waiting. So I cut my bangs again.

So that is what has been going on in my life lately. Just having fun being newly married and enjoying my senior year of college! And as you should know by now I love fall, so I have been having a lot of fun with the fall decor in our apartment, and dressing in all my fall outfits with sweaters and boots! I’ll share some of my favorite pictures from the last month. Thanks for reading, enjoy!
